VFC: Virtual Function Component (Resource Onboarding)

  • software component of a VF 48534184 that is packaged into one or more images and is capable of running in its own container

vfModule: Virtual Function Module

  • A Heat 48534184 stack that defines the compute, network, licensing and other Heat resources needed to instantiate one or more VFCs associated with a VNF. In a VNF, one vfModule is typically designated as a base module. Any resources defined in the base module Heat template can be exposed to all other vfModules by declaring their resource UUID as Heat outputs. Beyond the base module, other VNF vfModules are typically referred to as expansion modules.
