NOTE 1: The VNFD Identifier shall be used as the unique identifier of the VNF Package that contains this VNFD. Any modification of the content of the VNFD or the VNF Package shall result in a new VNFD Identifier. NOTE 2: Monitoring parameters are specified as part of VNF flavour, VDU and VL descriptions. NOTE 3: The rule (conditions and actions) can be expressed as a script. NOTE 4: This allows to provide one or more localization languages to support selecting a specific localization language at VNF instantiation time. |
