Points to Highlight:

  • Integration between the ONAP and TOSCA Specs models: based on the tosca.capabilities.network.Linkable and tosca.capabilities.network.Bindable capability types, and, perhaps, substitution of the tosca.nodes.Network nodes
  • The connectivity is modeled on the "application" level only (VFC), not on the "infrastructure" level ("VDU"/Container)
  • VFC --< ← CP → >-- VL --< ← CP → VFC ← CP → 
  • Same node type to model both internal and external CPs
  • QoS modeled as TOSCA policies (targeting VLs)
  • Address assignment as TOSCA policies (tergeting CPs)
  • CP Address is an attribute, not a property
