Overview
The goal of the VNF Guidelines and Requirements project is to provide guidance to VNF providers on the guidelines, rules, and specifications to which a VNF must adhere to correctly onboard and operate within ONAP. These rules span across the VNF's lifecycle and are influenced by the various components that comprise ONAP as well as various industry standards that are required for interoperability.
This project welcomes and encourages contributions, feedback, and inquiries through a variety of mechanisms. The intent of this guide is to inform a potential contributor of the various options available to them, and provide instructions on how to use those mechanisms.
Since this project is sub-project of the ONAP community, most of the ways to contribute our consistent with the standard tools used across ONAP. Please refer to the Getting involved with the ONAP community page for general information on getting involved with ONAP.
