In the current multi-chaining model: -- all service chains share the same left and right edge networks -- each port associated to the traffic generator is dedicated to send traffic to one edge network +- all service chains can either share the same left and right edge networks or can have their own edge networks +- each port associated to the traffic generator is dedicated to send traffic to one side of the edge networks -In an OpenStack deployment, this corresponds to all chains sharing the same 2 neutron networks. -If VLAN encapsulation is used, all traffic sent to a port will have the same VLAN id. +If VLAN encapsulation is used, all traffic sent to a port will either have the same VLAN id (shared networks) or distinct VLAN ids (dedicated egde networks) Basic Packet Description ------------------------ |
