How to Assure Network Service Performance & Quality Over

Virtualized & Dynamic Networks ?


Managing VNFs:Cross-domain Performance Assurance of Both Physical and Virtual Functions

1. End-to-end visibility across multiple domains

2. Transparent service reporting independent of physical or virtual networking functions.

3. Normalized performance indicators across network vendors

4. Real-time and dynamicmonitoring of virtual and physical resources

Scaling VNFs:Capacity Reporting for VNFs and VNFs’ Orchestrators

• One must understand the VNFs’ utilization and available capacity in real-time

• Using vendor-agnostic methods

• With feedback to the VNF manager(s) and orchestrator to expand, contract or add new VNFs
