ABSTRACT:
A method for communication includes associating respective feature chains with a plurality of interfaces of a data switch. The feature chains include service features. A respective failure policy is defined for each of one or more of the service features in each of the feature chains. Upon detecting a failure in a service feature in a feature chain associated with one of the interfaces, data packets are routed through the data switch while applying, responsively to the failure, the respective failure policy to the one of the interfaces.
