Hi Qin,
like your proposal. Let’s run with it.

Subject: RE: Issue of OAM information Information gathering Gathering from
Service Function
Hi, Greg:
I think the relationship between service node and service function is service
node can host service function, service function maintain affinity with service
node.
Service node can be virtual or physical.
Therefore to avoid confusion, I propose the following change:
s/service node/service node(virtual or physical) hosting service function.
Regards!

Hi, Greg:
Thanks for comments on SFC related cases in the problem statement draft.
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ww-opsawg-multi-layer-oam-01
See my reply inline below.
Greg>Service may be in form of NF instantiated in a cloud/data center. I think
that in such case there would not be physical node to point to.
[Qin]:Yes, service node can be either physical node or virtual node. Do you
have any proposed change here?
GIM>> I’d propose to use “Service Function” in place of “service node” as that
seems to be accepted term for an element of an Service Function Chain.
Greg> For the purpose of SFC OAM location of SF is irrelevant. Location of SF
is OAM information of the lower layer than SFC OAM.
[Qin]:Correct, for SFC OAM, SF location doesn’t matter, what matter is where
OAM information is located and where OAM function is performed.
Any proposed change here?
GIM>> Service Functions may be applied at different network layers, not only
above Layer 3. (Interesting, if SFC may include SFs at different layers.) I’d
propose to edit the first sentence of the Section 3.6.1 to
The service packets are steered through a set of service functions distributed
in the network that may be applied at different layers of the network protocol
stack.
