OVP ecosystem involves collaboration across different open source communities under LFN, includes ONAP, OPNFV and CNTT.
OPNFV
Provides required testing frameworks and test cases for NFVi (OpenStack) and VNF functional and performance test cases. Current following projects participate actively:
...
In conclusion, to serve the stated objective building a common NFVI infrastructure that is able to take advantage of true cloud models for the more rapid development and deployment of SDN NFV applications, the Common Telco NFVI is documentation of a reference model, a select set of architectures and a set of validation and testing suites, so that there is a more consistent model infrastructure for developers and vendors of SDN software and applications to build to.
OVP Certification Flow (VNF/CNF using ONAP Test Platform VTP)
- VNF VendorsVendors submit the VNF into OVP Lab for Conformance
- As part of OVP lab, already required test cases, test tools, eco-system like MANO and appropriate certified NFVi to be setup. This lab could either OVP 3rd party labor provided by VNF vendors.
.
NOTE: Flow is same for both VNF and CNF. Only Test cases varies based on network functions and services. - Once testing is completed, test results will be submitted to the OVP portal for CVC community review along with additional information such as product name, documentation links, primary company contact information, etc.
- LFN CVCcommunity team reviewers will review the results submitted and will approve or reject it based the details provided.
- If reviewer rejected it, then step 2 and 3 will be ran again to address the review comments. Otherwise once reviewer approved it, corresponding VNF will be published into OVP VNF Portal with OVP badge.
- LFN staff will provide the certificate badge graphics and graphical usage guidelines.
The OVP portal will reflect LFN's disposition and assignment of the certified VNF badge.
