Project Overview
VF-C leverages ETSI NFV MANO architecture and information model as a reference, and implements full life cycle management and FCAPS of VNF and NS.
- support NS and VNF lifecycle management based on the ONAP tosca data model and workflow
- support integration with multi VNFMs via drivers, which include vendors VNFM and generic VNFM
- support integration with multi VNFs via generic VNFM, which does not provide VNFM function
- support integration with multi VIMS via Multi-VIM, which include the opensource and commercial VIMs
- support microservice architecture and model driven orchestration and management
VF-C has two main components: - NFV-O Component,
- compliant with ETSI NFV MANO architecture,
- providing resource orchestration and full life cycle management and FCAPS for NS,
- providing standard south bound interface to VNFMs,
- providing north bound interface to SO, to take part in fulfilling the orchestraion and operation of end2end service,
- providing interface and work with DCAE and Policy for Close Loop Automation.
- GVNFM Component,
- compliant with ETSI NFV MANO architecture
- providing full life cycle management and FCAPS for VNFs which do not require a vendor VNFM
