Hi all, This document describes how to leverage the MPLS-based source routing (i.e., MPLS-SPRING) mechanism as developed by the SPRING WG to realize the service path layer functionality of the service function chaining. In addition, this document also describes how to carry metadata in an MPLS packet by using the NSH as a metadata container.
Any comments are suggestions are welcome.
