What does ForCES mean?
ForCES is the abbreviation of Forwarding and Control Element Separation.
In 2003, IETF proposed the framework of ForCES, which separates the forwarding element (FE) from the control element (CE), and then realizes the control through the standard interface, which aims to accelerate the innovation of the forwarding plane and the control plane. CE controls the forwarding of FE through the ForCES protocol.
