1.2 Classes
1.2.1 NetworkServiceDescriptor
The NSD class is a deployment template whose instances are used by the NFVO for the lifecycle management of NSs. For all attributes in this class, the Producer is SDC and the Consumer is SDC/UUI/VFC
Applied stereotypes:
- Preliminary
- OpenModelClass
- support: MANDATORY
Attribute Name | Type | Mult. | Stereotypes | Description |
nsdIdentifier | Identifier | 1 | OpenModelAttribute
Preliminary | Identifier of this NSD class. It globally uniquely identifies an instance of the NSD
|
designer | String | 1 | OpenModelAttribute
Preliminary | Identifies the designer of the NSD.
|
version | Version | 1 | OpenModelAttribute
Preliminary | Identifies the version of the NSD.
|
nsdName | String | 1 | OpenModelAttribute
Preliminary | Provides the human readable name of the NSD.
|
nsdInvariantId | Identifier | 1 | OpenModelAttribute
Preliminary | Identifies an NSD in a version independent manner. This attribute is invariant across versions of NSD.
|
autoScalingRule | Rule | 0..* | OpenModelAttribute
Preliminary | 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..* | OpenModelAttribute
Preliminary | Identifies either a virtualised resource-related performance metric or a VNF Indicator.
|
lifeCycleManagementScript | NsLifeCycleManagementScript | 0..* | OpenModelAttribute
Preliminary | Provides a life cycle management script written in a Domain Specific Language (DSL).
|
_virtualLinkDesc | NsVirtualLinkDesc | 0..* | OpenModelAttribute
Preliminary | Provides the constituent VLDs. Cardinality of 0 means that the NS is a NF set with unspecified connectivity.
|
_vnfdId | Vnfd | 0..* | OpenModelAttribute
Preliminary PassedByReference | References the VNFD of a constituent VNF. |
| ||||
_pnfdId | Pnfd | 0..* | OpenModelAttribute
Experimental PassedByReference | References the PNFD of a constituent PNF.
|
1.2.2 NsVirtualLinkDesc
...
The NsVirtualLinkDesc class provides general information enabling the instantiation of virtual links. For all attributes in this class the Producer is SDC and the Consumer is SDC/UUI/VFC
...
.
Parent class: VirtualLinkDesc
Applied stereotypes:
- Preliminary
- OpenModelClass
- support: MANDATORY
Attribute Name | Type | Mult. | Stereotypes | Description |
vitualLinkDescProvider | String | 0..1 | OpenModelAttribute
Preliminary | Defines the organization generating the VLD.
|
virtuaLinkDescVersion | Version | 1 | OpenModelAttribute
Preliminary | Specifies the version of the VLD.
|
virtualLinkDf | VirtualLinkDf | 1 | OpenModelAttribute
Preliminary | Specifies properties for instantiating a VL according to a specific flavour.
|
virtualLinkDescId | Identifier | 1 | OpenModelAttribute
Preliminary | 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 | OpenModelAttribute
Preliminary | Specifies the protocol exposed by a VL and the flow pattern supported by the VL.
|
description | String | 0..1 | OpenModelAttribute
Preliminary | Provides human-readable information on the purpose of the VL (e.g. control plane traffic).
|
1.2.3 Vnfd
The Vnfd class is a deployment template enabling on-boarding VNFs and referencing them from an NSD. It focuses on connectivity aspects only.
1.2.4 Pnfd
The Pnfd class is a deployment template enabling on-boarding PNFs and referencing them from an NSD. It focuses on connectivity aspects only.
