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. This document describes some exemplary use cases that show the usage of recursive (e.g. nested) service function chaining relationship.}, }
