    Attached is the write-up I did describing just my way of interpreting the ETSI NFV docs for several entity types.

    In the VNFC v VDU debate: I think for deployment of a VNF, the VDU concept may be sufficient, but for description of service flows through the VNF, one wouldn't want to be talking about VDUs, but rather VNFCs.

  3. Chesla Wechsler

    I agree.

    Regarding

    See annex in the ETSI document to be further discussed next week: 

    https://docbox.etsi.org/ISG/NFV/Open/Drafts/SOL001_TOSCA_desc/NFV-SOL001v040.zip

    in my opinion, the connection points of a VNF are either internal xor external.   Packets/frames from an internal connection point can only go to other internal connection points.  External connection points exchange packets/frames with "outside the VNF".   So,  contra some notes in the document, IMO, external connection points should not be modeled as references to internal connection points.

    PS: are there counter-examples to what I think, where a connection point sends/receives packets both from internal connection points and from "outside the VNF"?
