Question 4 @ 9:59 How are virtual networks transported over the physical L2/3 network? Does IBM support hybrid mode? Question 5 @ 11:59: There are multi-tenant clouds, hybrid clouds and large-scale private clouds or data centers that would benefit from virtual network overlays. Which use cases does IBM see as virtual network overlays offering the most value today? Question 6 @ 14:29: How do IT business leaders start to implement IBM’s virtual network overlay?
