A packet is received at a network device hosting a service function that is part of a service chain. The packet is sent to the network device from an originating network device. The content of the packet is analyzed to determine that the packet comprises a request for statistical values to be aggregated by the network device. The statistical values are aggregated at the network device. A report comprising the statistical values aggregated at the network device is generated. The report is sent to the originating network device.
