These diagrams come from papyrus based on R3 vnf model clean, blue ones are new requirements added.
Class: Vnfd
COLOR EXPLANATION: Black means already have in R3, all the attributes with colors are new requirements to propose. Blue means haved discussed, pink means haven't yet. Currently, all the attributes have been introduced, so pink is no longer have, all the pink attributes turn into blue ones. Red means already have in ONAP, but to align with new IFA 011 v2.5.1, I suggest to remove them from the current position to the new places I list here. Orange means the suggested modifications for the discussed attributes.
If the proposed attributes are aligned with IFA specs, you will find a sentence below the attribute name, if not, they are the extended requirements.
