Abstract network function (NF)
abstract concept which is the base class of VNF, PNF and ANF (allotted resource)
onboarding VNF/PNF may be translated into internal NF, enabling the run time components to choose the right form (VNF, PNF or ANF) for deployment
onboarding information would be captured as requirement/capability of the "NF"
UML diagram draft for NF model:
OnboardingNfPackage, OnboardingNfDescriptor, InternalNfModel and NfInstance are abstract concept
OnboardingVnfPackage, OnboardingPnfPackage, OnboardingPnfDescriptor, OnboardingVnfDescriptor, InternalVnfModel, InternalPnfModel, PnfInstance and VnfInstance are concrete concepts
Onboarding and Internal models are for design time (which go into SDC catalog), and Instance models are for run time
