Abstract:
Service function chain is the definition of an ordered set of service
functions. After instantiated, the service function path is created
and the classified traffic is steered through the corresponding
service function path and then forwarded to the final destination.
Metadata (MD) is conveyed in SFC data plane which provides the
ability to exchange context information between classifiers and SFs,
among SFs, and between external systems and SFs. This document is
motivated to state an issue when MD Type = 0x1 and discuss which
Metadata Type in more appropriate to be mandate in SFC data plane.
