Hi,

Loa did a review so we made a few minor updates for clarity.

Cheers,
Adrian

> Abstract:
>    Service Function Chaining (SFC) is the process of directing packets
>    through a network so that they can be acted on by an ordered set of
>    abstract service functions before being delivered to the intended
>    destination.  An architecture for SFC is defined in RFC7665.
> 
>    The Network Service Header (NSH) can be inserted into packets to
>    steer them along a specific path to realize a Service Function Chain.
> 
>    Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) is a widely deployed forwarding
>    technology that uses labels to identify the forwarding actions to be
>    taken at each hop through a network.  Segment Routing is a mechanism
>    that provides a source routing paradigm for steering packets in an
>    MPLS network.
> 
>    This document describes how Service Function Chaining can be achieved
>    in an MPLS network by means of a logical representation of the NSH in
>    an MPLS label stack.
