Zusammenfassung:A device receives packets of a traffic flow, and inspects one or more of the packets of the traffic flow. The device determines, based on the inspection of the one or more packets, a service graph of feature peers for the packets of the traffic flow. The feature peers are associated with a network, and the service graph includes an ordered set of the feature peers. The device configures network devices of the network with the service graph, and the network devices forward the packets of the traffic flow to the feature peers based on the service graph and without changing the traffic flow.
