RFC 4031, “Service Requirements for Layer 3 Provider Provisioned Virtual Private Networks”, is an Informational document published in April 2005 by M. Carugi, D. McDysan. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document provides requirements for Layer 3 Virtual Private Networks (L3VPNs). It identifies requirements applicable to a number of individual approaches that a Service Provider may use to provision a Virtual Private Network (VPN) service. This document expresses a service provider perspective, based upon past experience with IP-based service offerings and the ever-evolving needs of the customers of such services. Toward this end, it first defines terminology and states general requirements. Detailed requirements are expressed from a customer perspective as well as that of a service provider. This memo provides information for the Internet community.
