| Attribute Name | Type | Multiplicity | Description | Applied Stereotypes | Attribute Type | Category | Rationale |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| vnfmInfo | String | 0..* (IFA has 1..*) | Identifies VNFM(s) compatible with the VNF described in this version of the VNFD. Using the name of micro-service of the vnfm drive. For vendor specific VNFM, the value composes of "vendorname" and "vnfmdriver", e.g. "mycompanyvnfmdriver"; for generic VNFM, the value is "gvnfmdriver". | OpenModelAttribute
| attribute | value specified cardinality change | Value is specified according to the usage in VFC project. Lower cardinality is changed to 0 because not all VNFs in ONAP need to be managed by VNFMs, SO/APPC could also serve the similar functionality. |
| localizationLanguage | String | 0..* | Information about localization languages of the VNF (includes e.g. strings in the VNFD). NOTE: This allows to provide one or more localization languages to support selecting a specific localization language at VNF instantiation time. The value refer to ISO936 https://www.iso.org/iso-639-language-codes.html . | OpenModelAttribute
| attribute | type and value specified | Value is specified according to the usage in VFC project. |
| defaultLocalizationLanguage | String | 0..1 | Default localization language that is instantiated if no information about selected localization language is available. The value refer to ISO936 https://www.iso.org/iso-639-language-codes.html . | OpenModelAttribute
| attribute | type and value specified | Value is specified according to the usage in VFC project. |
| vnfReservedCpd | VduCpd | 0..* | Reserved IP Address for VNF which is not bounded to any specific VNFC, but assigned manually from outside and potentially shared as a floating IP among VNFCs. | OpenModelAttribute
| association | new attribute | Used to describe CPs which don't belong to a specific VNFC, but are shared among VNFCs. Corresponding to "allowed address pair" concept in openstack, or "virtual ip" concept. Usually used for redundancy (reliability) design. |
| modifiableAttributes | VnfInfoModifiableAttributes | 1 (IFA has 0..1) | Describes the modifiable attributes of the VNF. | OpenModelAttribute
| attribute | cardinality change | |
| logo | String | 0..1 | File path of the vendor specified logo. | OpenModelAttribute
| attribute | new attribute | |
| guide | String | 0..1 | UUID of the vendor guide/documentation which is attached to VNF and can be downloaded from the model. | OpenModelAttribute
| attribute | new attribute |

allowedAddressData Note: Ongoing discussion is proposing to move this out of Cpd (into VNFD) as it is specified to VNFD. | AddressData | 0..N | For specifying floating IP(s) to be shared among Cpds, which are reserved for vnfReservedCpd described in the VNFD. | OpenModelAttribute
| attribute | new attribute |
Class: VduCpd
| To specify the IP addresses used for the vnfReservedCpd. |
Class: VduCpd
Describes network connectivity between a VNFC instance (based on this VDU) and an internal Virtual Link.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| watchdog | String | 0..1 | Watchdog action to be triggered by the VIM for the VNF in case the heart beat fails, e.g. reset or hard shutdown, etc. | OpenModelAttribute
| Attribute | new attribute | See description. |
| vmBootUpTimeOut | Integer | 0..1 | Timeout value for the VNFM to wait before the successful booting up of the VDU. | OpenModelAttribute
| Attribute | new attribute | To specify the maximum time VNFM should wait before a VNF instance is successfully boot up. If timeout, the instantiation would be considered as failed. |

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| networkInterfaceRequirements | KeyValuePair | 0..* | The network interface requirements. An element from an array of key-value pairs that articulate the network interface deployment requirements. | OpenModelAttribute
| Attribute | type specified | Type and value are defined per HPA proposal. |

| placementGroup | PlacementGroup | 0..* | Determine where VNFC's (VDU's) are placed with respect to the VNF | OpenModelAttribute
| Association | new attribute | |
| baseConfigGroup | BaseConfigGroup | 0..1 |
| OpenModelAttribute
Experimental | Association | new attribute | serves different use cases, please see description |
| deploymentGroup | DeploymentGroup | 1..* | DeploymentGroup provides the minimum viable VDU and associated VNFC configuration for a useable VNF. | OpenModelAttribute

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
virtualLinkProfileId Note: This is missing in IFA011 but is in the model. This is a necessary attribute in order to instantiate the class | Identifier | 1 | Uniquely identifies this VirtualLinkProfile class. | OpenModelAttribute
| Attribute | new attribute | align with IFA015 |
| initiationParameters | KeyValuePair | 0..* | Specifies initiation parameters for the virtual link. Specified values include: cidr, allocationPools (represented by [starting ip address, ending ip address]), gatewayIp, networkName, segmentationId, physicalNetwork. NOTE: cidr, allocationPools, gatewayIp, networkName are already defined in L3ProtocolData in IFA. | OpenModelAttribute
| Attribute | new attribute | specify the input parameters for creating virtual link (network) in openstack; IFA has added several attributes for the L3 in the latest version, but not for the VLAN related ones (L2?) |
Class: VirtualLinkDescFlavour

Datatype: VirtualCpuPinningData (suggest to deprecate)
NOTE: The rationale is to include this information in vduCpuRequirements as part of the HPA proposal.
Attribute Name | Type | Multiplicity | Description | Applied Stereotypes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
virtualCpuPinningPolicy | Enum | 0..1 | The policy can take values of "static" or "dynamic". In case of "static" the virtual CPU cores are requested to be allocated to logical CPU cores according to the rules defined in virtualCpuPinningRules. In case of "dynamic" the allocation of virtual CPU cores to logical CPU cores is decided by the VIM. (e.g.: SMT (Simultaneous Multi-Threading) requirements). | OpenModelAttribute
|
| virtualCpuPinningRule | Not specified | 0..1 | A list of rules that should be considered during the allocation of the virtual CPUs to logical CPUs in case of "static" virtualCpuPinningPolicy. | OpenModelAttribute

| scriptInput | KeyValuePair | 0..* | Array of KVP requirements with the key as the parameter name and the value as the parameter that need to be passed as an input to the script. NOTE: The scriptInput values are passed to the scripts in addition to the parameters received in the operation invocation request or indicator value change. | OpenModelAttribute
