Abstract:
The present disclosure provides a packet transmission method and apparatus. The method includes: a classifier receiving a first packet; the classifier determining a first service function (SF) to which the first packet is to be transmitted; the classifier adding an address of the first SF to the first packet, obtaining a second packet; and the classifier transmitting the second packet to a network virtualization edge (NVE) node.

Claim (Index 3):
The method of  claim 1 , wherein adding, by the classifier, the address of the first SF to the first packet comprises at least one of:\n replacing, by the classifier, a destination address of the first packet with the address of the first SF; or encapsulating, by the classifier, the first packet in an outer encapsulation layer, wherein a destination address of the outer encapsulation layer includes the address of the first SF.
