More Information
Summary:A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium are described in which a packet inspection service is provided. The packet inspection service may enable a virtual entity of multiple virtual entities of a service chain to perform packet inspection on incoming packets and store the packet inspection information in a memory or storage device. The virtual entity may provide a service on the packets using the packet inspection information. The other virtual entities may provide services on the packets also using the packet inspection information without having to perform packet inspection.
