Hi,

We've revised the draft to align with the received suggestions and comments, mainly including:
1) explain the challenges to use SFC proxy to support legacy SF
2) list some mappings as example to express the operation feasible

Thanks,
Jianjie

Abstract:
   A Service Function Chain (SFC) defines a set of abstract Service
   Functions (SF) and ordering constraints that must be applied to
   packets and/or frames selected as a result of classification.  One
   assumption of this document is that legacy service functions can
   participate in service function chains without supporting the SFC
   header, or even being aware of it.  This document provides some of
   the mechanisms between an SFC proxy and an SFC-unaware service
   function (herein termed "legacy SF"), to identify the SFC header
   associated with a packet that is returned from a legacy SF, without
   an SFC header being explicitly carried in the wired protocol between
   SFC proxy and legacy SF.

Please note that it may take a couple of minutes from the time of submission until the htmlized version and diff are available at tools.ietf.org.
