The discussion in the 5G Use Case sub-committee was to think about the lifecycle of a PNF in "stages"
This is artificial, but was used to help us think about certain categories that Use Cases might fit into:
STAGE 1 START UP - Stage 1 is related to design time, pre-onboarding/onboarding, discover & plug and play. It relates to activities to "start up" a PNF, recognize and define the PNF, and describe resources. Those design time activities that are done to define a PNF to be used.
STAGE 2 CONFIGURATION - This represents activities that occur AFTER the PNF has been discovered. Some configuration, or S/W upgrade for example. Activities that are typically done in configuring or sending operational information to the PNF, or prepare the PNF before it goes into full operation; or reconfiguration after the PNF is up and running.
STAGE 3 OPERATIONAL - Use Cases that deal with a PNF after Start up and Configuration.
