Abstract:
   This document aims at analyzing the various design options and
   providing a set of recommendations for the design of Service Function
   Chaining solution(s).  Note:

   o  The analysis does not claim to be exhaustive.  The list includes a
      preliminary set of potential solutions; other proposals can be
      added to the analysis if required.

   o  The analysis is still ongoing.  The analysis text will be updated
      to integrate received comments and inputs.

   o  Sketched recommendations are not frozen.  These recommendations
      are provided as proposals to kick-off the discussion and to
      challenge them.

   o  The analysis does not cover any application-specific solution
      (e.g., HTTP header) because of the potential issues inherent to
      (TLS) encrypted traffic.

   o  The analysis will be updated to take into account the full set of
      SFC requirements.
