                                 existing VPN, there is a need to provision a new subnet in the CSP's data centre and to set
                                 up a new virtual routing and forwarding (VRF) in its edge router. The migration of the
                                 corresponding subnet from the CSC's data centre to the CSP's data centre and the subnet
                                 removal from the CSC's data centre needs to be announced to the remaining edge routers.
                                 The concrete procedure is shown in the following figure.
                                 1.  Processing resources and the corresponding subnet migrate from the CSC's data centre
                                    to the CSP's data centre.
                                 2.  New VRF is configured in the edge router of the CSP's data centre.
                                 3.  The removal of the CSC's subnet is announced through MP-BGP update to all VPN sites.
                                 4.  CSP's new subnet is announced through MP-BGP update to all VPN sites.
                                 Service continuity needs to be ensured during the whole migration and reconfiguration
                                 procedure. However, the existing VPN is a black box from the CSC's perspective, and as
                                 such it can't be provisioned and reconfigured by the CSC. In addition, the current VPN
                                 technology cannot support the dynamic addition and reduction of the VPN sites and
                                 bandwidth capacity.

            II.4.2.3   NaaS connectivity use case for BoD service

             Title               NaaS connectivity use case for BoD service
             Description         In this scenario CSU access to cloud computing service offered by XaaS CSP is considered
                                 (e.g., virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), video streaming). CSU accesses the service from a
                                 fixed location e.g., using a company local area network (LAN) or from mobile location e.g.,
                                 mobile terminal. The XaaS CSP serves the services on the basis of own data centres and has
                                 no impact on the performance of particular connectivity between end users and the data
                                 centre where the service is hosted. From the perspective of CSU, quality of experience
                                 (QoE) of the service is dependent on a combination of data centre and network
                                 performance. The XaaS CSP is able to guarantee certain service quality limited to its own
                                 data centre. This quality could be downgraded on network performance on the connection
