Technical Summary
Instead of considering a single SFC control plane that can manage
complete service paths from one end of the network
to the other, the document adopts an approach that decomposes
large networks into smaller domains operated
by as many SFC sub-domains (under the same administrative entity).
This approach is called: Hierarchical Service Function Chaining (hSFC)
The goals of hSFC are to make a large-scale network easier to reason
about, simpler to control and to support independent functional
groups within large network operators.
