Types:
- Add new type VipCpd which is a generalization of type Cpd and describes a requirement to allocate one or a set of virtual IP addresses.
- Add new type CheckSumData which provides a mechanism to verify SwImages
- Add new type VnfInterfaceDetails which specifies the details of an interface produced by the VNF on te Ve-Vnfm reference point
Other changes:
- VDU::configurableProperties - Cardinality changed to 0..1; cardinatlity 0 when the VNFCs do not have configurable properties
- CPD::cpProtocol & CPD::trunkMode - Cardinality changed to allow 0
- VduCpd::vnicType: Added SMART-NIC as an allowable value
- SwImageDesc:Provider - New attribute of type string with cardinality 0..1 which describes the provider of the software image.
- VnfDf:supportedVnfInterface - New attribute of type VnfInterfaceDetails with cardinality 0..N which indicates which interfaces the VNF produces and provides additional details on how to access the interface endpoints.
- VnfConfigurableProperties::vnfminterfaceinfo - New attribute with cardinality 0..1 which contains info enabling access to the NFV-MANO interfaces produced by the VNFM
- VnfConfigurableProperties::vnfmOauthServerinfo - New attribute with cardinality 0..1 which contains info to enable discovery of the authorization server protecting access to the VNFM interfaces
- VnfConfigurableProperties::vnfOauthServerinfo - New attribute with cardinality 0..1 which contains info to enable discoveryof the authorization server to validate the access tokens provided by the VNFM when the VNFM accesses the VNF interfaces
