Abstract

This draft describes the transport of metadata in Service Function Chains. It precises how metadata MAY be shared reliably by network devices and/or network services via Metadata Messages that can be exchanged offline or inline. It proposes IPFIX as a representation mechanism for SFC Metadata and SCTP as an optional transport mechanism to enable reliable transmission of Metadata in SFC
