Abstract

This document specifies an IPv6 extension header for Service Function Chaining (SFC) purposes. This extension header is used by SFC data plane elements to make forwarding decisions in an IPv6-enabled SFC domain and it conveys metadata that are processed by SFC-aware nodes. This extension is intended to be used within a single administrative domain.
