	 <t>   Service function chaining (SFC) provides various services that can
   be tailored to different requirements from diversified user groups,
   where each user group forms a collective client that requires
   similar service. SFC is typically deployed as a service overlay with
   its own service topology on top of existing network topology. This
   kind of virtualized structure naturally enables recursive service
   relationship where a client may become a service provider and resell
   SFC services to its own user groups. Alternatively, a client may
   also choose to ask its service provider to provide a structured
   service for its user groups. This document describes some exemplary
   use cases that show the usage of recursive (e.g. nested) or
   structured service function chaining relationship.
