[AusNOG] Virtual routers that users can manage without interfering with other tenants

[Nathanael Bettridge]

Assuming your architecture fits, there's also things like VXLAN and NVGRE.

If you're sitting atop VMware stuff, you can use vcloud director (under a service provider license) or vCAC/vRealize/whatever they're calling it this month to handle automation of the virtual segments and provisioning of either their native api managed routers or whatever router templates you feel like building.

There's similar stuff available for other platforms too.
