Abstract

With the rapid growth of the Internet, more demand for network resources allocation and management of value-added services are appeared. The new concept of network service architecture, Service Function Chain (SFC), has been proposed. The SFC is a capability that uses Software-defined networking (SDN) technology to create a service chain of connected network services and connect them in a virtual chain. This paper designed a VLAN and OpenFlow based Service Function Chain (VOFSFC) system to improve the flexibility of the network service deployment and increase the utilization of service functions.
