9 - These requirements are specific to the current release of ONAP.
10 It is the initial release of requirements based on a merge of the Open-O
11 and OpenECOMP requirements.
12 - Requirements are identified as either MUST, MUST NOT, SHOULD, SHOULD NOT,
13 or MAY as defined in RFC 2119.
14 - Requirements should be targeted to a restricted set of nouns related
15 to VNFs and within the control of the VNF provider. The current list
16 of VNF Requirement targets is:
21 - The VNF Heat Orchestration Template
23 - Chapter 4 contains the xNF requirements involving the design and
24 development of xNFs. These requirements help VNFs/PNFs operate
25 efficiently within a cloud environment. Requirements cover design,
26 resiliency, security, modularity and DevOps.
27 - Chapter 5 describes the different data models the xNF provider
28 needs to understand. There are currently 2 models described in this
31 - The first model is the onboarding package data model. This is a TOSCA
32 model that will describe how all the elements passed from the VNF/PNF
33 Provider to the Service provider should be formatted and packaged.
34 - The second model is HEAT template used for orchestrating and
35 instantiating virtual resources in an OpenStack environment. At this
36 time the HEAT files will be passed to the Service provider as a data
37 element within the TOSCA onboarding package.
38 - Chapter 6 details the requirements specific to an implementation.
39 The current implementations documented are OpenStack and Azure.
40 - Chapter 7 provides the comprehensive set of requirements for xNFs to
41 be on-boarded, configured and managed by ONAP.
42 - Chapter 8 is the appendix that provide a number of detailed data record
43 formats. It also contains a list of the requirements that are listed
44 in the other chapters as well as examples and models that are referenced
45 throughout the rest of the chapters.
