NSD - Network Service Descriptor
...
- OpenModelClass
- support: MANDATORY
- Preliminary
Attribute Name | Type | Mult. | Stereotypes | Description |
nsdIdentifier | Identifier | 1 | Preliminary OpenModelAttribute
| Identifier of this NSD class. It globally uniquely identifies an instance of the NSD |
autoScalingRule | Rule | 0..* | Preliminary OpenModelAttribute
| Specifies a rule to trigger a scaling action on a NS instantiated according to the NSD. NOTE 1: The rule is based on a combination of assertions on the values of virtualised resource-related performance metrics and VNF Indicators identified by the monitoredInfo attribute. NOTE 2: There may be multiple data sources (each identified as monitoredInfo) per rule |
monitoredInfo | MonitoredData | 0..* | Preliminary OpenModelAttribute
| Identifies either a virtualised resource-related performance metric or a VNF Indicator. |
lifeCycleManagementScript | NsLifeCycleManagementScript | 0..* | Preliminary OpenModelAttribute
| Provides a life cycle management script written in a Domain Specific Language (DSL). |
security | SecurityParameters | 1 | Preliminary OpenModelAttribute
| Provides a signature to prevent tampering. |
_nsdf | NsDf | 1..* | Experimental OpenModelAttribute
| Identifies a DF within the scope of an NSD. |
_sapd | Sapd | 0..* | Experimental OpenModelAttribute
| Provides the descriptor of a SAP of the NS. |
_vnffgd | Vnffgd | 0..* | Experimental OpenModelAttribute
| Provides the descriptors of the applicable forwarding graphs. Cardinality of 0 means that the NS is a NF set with unspecified connectivity. |
_virtualLinkdesc | NsVirtualLinkDesc | 0..* | Preliminary OpenModelAttribute
| Provides the constituent VLDs. Cardinality of 0 means that the NS is a NF set with unspecified connectivity. |
_vnfdId | Vnfd | 0..* | Preliminary OpenModelAttribute
PassedByReference | References the VNFD of a constituent VNF. |
_pnfdId | Pnfd | 0..* | Experimental OpenModelAttribute
PassedByReference | References the PNFD of a constituent PNF. |
_nestedNsdId | NetworkServiceDescriptor | 0..* | Preliminary OpenModelAttribute
| References the NSD of a constituent nested NS. |
NSVirtualLinkDesc - Network Service Virtual Link Descriptor
...
- OpenModelClass
- support: MANDATORY
- Preliminary
Attribute Name | Type | Mult. | Stereotypes | Description |
vitualLinkDescProvider | String | 0..1 | Preliminary OpenModelAttribute
| Defines the organization generating the VLD. |
virtuaLinkDescVersion | Version | 1 | Preliminary OpenModelAttribute
| Specifies the version of the VLD. |
virtualLinkDf | VirtualLinkDf | 1..* | Preliminary OpenModelAttribute
| Specifies properties for instantiating a VL according to a specific flavour. |
security | SecurityParameters | 0..1 | Preliminary OpenModelAttribute
| Provides a signature to prevent tampering. |
virtualLinkDescId | Identifier | 1 | Preliminary OpenModelAttribute
| Uniquely identifies a VLD in the parent descriptor. For VnfVirtualLinkDesc, the parent descriptor is the VNFD. For NsVirtualLinkDesc, the parent descriptor is the NSD. Note: the description of this class are different in ETSI GS NFV IFA 011 and ETSI GS NFV IFA 014. The present definition merges the 2 definitions. |
connectivityType | ConnectivityType | 1 | Preliminary OpenModelAttribute
| Specifies the protocol exposed by a VL and the flow pattern supported by the VL. |
testAccess | String | 0..* | Preliminary OpenModelAttribute
| Specifies test access facilities expected on the VL (e.g. none, passive monitoring, or active (intrusive) loopbacks at endpoints. |
description | String | 0..1 | Preliminary OpenModelAttribute
| Provides human-readable information on the purpose of the VL (e.g. control plane traffic). |
Sapd - Service Access Point Descriptor
...
The MonitoredData datatype identifies information to be monitored during the lifetime of a network service instance.
Attribute Name | Type | Mult. | Access | Stereotypes | Description |
vnfIndicatorInfo | VnfIndicatorData | 0..1 | RW | OpenModelAttribute
| Uniquely identifies the VNF Indicator class. One and only one of the attributes shall be included (i.e. there is a XOR relationship between the attributes). |
monitoringParameter |
0..1 | RW | OpenModelAttribute
| Specifies the virtualised resource related performance metric to be monitored on an NS level or VNF level. One and only one of the attributes shall be included (i.e. there is a XOR relationship between the attributes). |
NsLifeCycleManagementScript
The LifeCycleManagementScript information element specifies a script for the NS.
Attribute Name | Type | Mult. | Access | Stereotypes | Description |
event | String | 1..* | RW | OpenModelAttribute
| Describes NS lifecycle event(s) or an external stimulus detected on an NFVO reference point. NOTE 1: A minimum set of NS lifecycle events triggered internally by the NFVO includes: start instantiation, end instantiation, start scaling, end scaling, start healing, end healing, start termination, end termination, start update, end update. NOTE 2: A minimum set of external stimulus includes: the receipt of request message of instantiation, scaling, healing, termination, update of NS. |
script | String | 1 | RW | OpenModelAttribute
| Includes an NS LCM script (e.g., written in a DSL) triggered to react to one of the events listed in the event attribute. |
VirtualLinkDf
The VirtualLinkDf datatype specifies properties for instantiating a VL according to a specific flavour.
Attribute Name | Type | Mult. | Access | Stereotypes | Description |
flavourId |
