    摘要: Methods and apparatus to securely measure quality of service end to end in a network. First and second endpoints are configured to detect packets marked for QoS measurements, associate a timestamp using a secure clock with such marked packets, and report the timestamp along with packet identifying metadata to an external monitor. The external monitor uses the packet identifying metadata to match up timestamps and calculates a QoS measurement corresponding to the latency incurred by the packet when traversing a packet-processing path between the first and second endpoints. The endpoints may be implemented in physical devices, such as Ethernet controllers and physical switches, as well as virtual, software-defined components including virtual switches.

    摘要: Technologies for identifying service functions that may be performed in parallel in a service function chain include a computing device for running one or more virtual machines for each of a plurality of service functions based on a preferred service function chain being selected. To identify which service functions may be performed in parallel, the computing device may determine which service functions are not required to be performed on a critical path of the service function chain and/or which service functions are not required to be performed in real-time. Additionally, selecting the preferred service function chain may be based on selection criteria.
