Thanks Manuel,

Then I guess the only way to make it possible with the current technology is to use OpenStack + Networking SFC without ODL (and use MPLS encapsulation). I have a running demo with this setup but I'm missing ODL in the picture. Guess it will require more time, or I should modify ODL and push the changes myself :)

Thanks,
BR,
Miguel Ángel.

Hi everyone
     I have a running demo of ODL with SFC where every SF has one
single
network interface that connects it to one or several chains.

Is it possible to have a SF with two interfaces (egress/ingress) and
have the traffic in the chain being sent through one of them and
received through the other?

          +---------+      +---------+
          | Current |      | Desired |
          |         |  =>  |         |
          |         |      |         |
          +---------+      +---------+
               |              |   |
               |              |   |
               +              +   +

              XXX            XXXXXXX
             XX XX          XX     XX
   SC    XXXXX   XXXXX   XXXX       XXXX

The purpose of this is to allow a firewall to be placed as Service
Function. In this type of devices we need the traffic flowing from
one
interface to a different one. I know this was not possible some
months
ago, but maybe this feature has been already added recently?
I don't think this feature is currently available, but I might be wrong

I'm also curious to know why this is different to OpenStack +
NetworkingSFC + ODL: In this deployment openstack allows the SF to
have
an ingress and egress port which can be placed on different
interfaces/data plane locator.
The e2e integration requires that ODL supports it and as I said above,
I don't think it does. Therefore, it should not work even if it is
available in the networking-sfc API.

Thank you very much,
Best Regards,
Miguel Ángel.
