Service Function Chaining Simplified
Middleboxes have become a vital part of modern networks by providing service functions such as content filtering, load balancing and optimization of network traffic. An ordered sequence of middleboxes composing a logical service is called service chain. Service Function Chaining (SFC) enables us to define these service chains.
