The present document specifies the interfaces supported over the Vi-Vnfm reference point of the NFV-MANO architectural framework as well as the information elements exchanged over those interfaces.
Network Functions Virtualisation (NFV) Release 2; Management and Orchestration; Os-Ma-Nfvo reference point - Interface and Information Model Specification
The present document defines the interfaces supported over the Os-Ma-nfvo reference point of the NFV-MANO architectural framework as well as the information elements exchanged over those interfaces.
The present document specifies requirements and templates for describing Network Functions Virtualisation (NFV) Network Services (NSs) in the form of meta-data.
The present document specifies requirements and templates for describing Network Functions Virtualisation (NFV) Network Services (NSs) in the form of meta-data.
The present document specifies the network acceleration related interfaces supported over the Vn-Nf reference point of the NFV architectural framework between a VNF and a dedicated switch controlled by that VNF. The present document also defines information elements exchanged over those interfaces.
The present document is built on the use of the Dynamic Optimization of Packet Flow Routing (DOPFR) mechanism (see use case described in ETSI GS NFV-IFA 001). Based on DOPFR, the present document aims to design a common interface allowing a Network Intensive VNF (NI-VNF) to accelerate its data plane processing on a dedicated switch.
The present document specifies the interfaces used for acceleration resource management on the Nf-Vi reference point of the NFV MANO framework, as well as the information elements exchanged over those interfaces.
The present document defines the requirements to interface the Security Control to NFV-MANO as described in ETSI GS NFV-SEC 013 and the LI Controller in ETSI GR NFV-SEC 011. The present document identifies the extensions to the NFV-MANO architecture related to security management and monitoring. Multiple trust domains are considered.
The present document specifies the performance measurements that are exposed on various NFV MANO reference points (e.g. Or-Vnfm, Ve-Vnfm-em, Vi-Vnfm, Or-Vi and Os-Ma-nfvo). ETSI GS NFV-TST 008 specifies the Network Function Virtualisation Infrastructure (NFVI) performance metrics that will be reported to Virtualised Infrastructure Manager (VIM). VIM processes the performance metrics received from NFVI to generate performance measurements to be sent to NFV Orchestrator (NFVO) and VNF Manager (VNFM). VNFM and NFVO conduct further processing to generate performance measurements.
The present document develops specifications for packaging of VNFs to be delivered to service providers, focusing on the holistic end-to-end view of the VNF Package lifecycle, from design to runtime, capturing development as well as operational views. The present document provides an analysis of end-to-end VNF Package lifecycle management operations based on use-cases and NFV Architectural Framework functional blocks.
A VNF Package contains all of the required files and meta-data descriptors required to validate and instantiate a VNF.
Standardized meta-data descriptors are required to:
Standardized packaging and validation of VNFs is required to:
