Name: GRE Interface Integration (GREII)

Description:
The GRE Interface Integration (GREII) BoF aims to explore the challenges and opportunities of integrating GRE (RFC 2784) with other protocols, particularly focusing on the compression and decompression of encapsulated data. This session will address the technical requirements for making GRE more adaptable in modern networking scenarios, including its potential integration with the sw103k protocol.
