Empower your NFV Services through Service Function Chaining and SFC Graphs
Telecom / NFV Operations

The first release of networking-sfc can already fulfill multiple use cases. For the second phase, the project team has been working on supporting more features and more use cases. One of them is the support for the NSH SFC Encapsulation mechanism as defined by the IETF SFC working group.

This talk will go through:

  • the changes that are needed in order to support NSH Encapsulation;
  • the advanced features that NSH encapsulation enables;
  • the challenges on chaining legacy non-NSH-aware Service Functions;
  • how you can deploy OpenStack SFC with the NSH encapsulated data path with Open vSwitch;
  • and how to achieve advanced use cases that SFC Encapsulation in general allows.

What can I expect to learn?

Attendees should expect to learn about the following:

  • what networking-sfc is capable of doing today;
  • how to build a service function chain graph;
  • how it aligns with standardization efforts;
  • what the next steps are;
  • what is the relationship with other projects that can leverage or be leveraged by networking-sfc/Neutron, with the big focus on learning how NSH is enabled via OpenStack.
