    NFV Operational Characteristics
    Dynamism - Virtualization aids on-demand changes, operation becomes more dynamic

    Agility – Virtualization of Network Functions (vFW, vLB, vEPC, etc) - increases agility

    Failure prevention – Address higher risks for triggering catastrophic failures

    State Maintenance - Maintain network state – explosion of new variables


    Scope of
    this Catalyst
    Auto healing – Need workflows to quickly restore network to last-known-good-state

    Problem Statement and Requirements
    Operator Concerns Expected Solution Capabilities
    How do I configure a Network Service • NFVO should support features to perform Day0,
    and baseline the config? Day1 configuration
    • NFVO should invoke centralized config manager
    API to trigger Day2 config based on templates

    How to enable near real time • Change Notify Microservice within the VNF shall
    configuration change updates & re- push the config changes to centralized
    baseline the config? configuration manager in near real time

    How to auto-heal the network service • NFVO shall re-instantiate the VNF and instruct
    with right & latest base lined config manager to restore baseline configuration
    configuration?

    Key Drivers for the Catalyst
    Key Driver Catalyst Solution
    Lack of standardization in the config • Use a Config Management Solution that is built on
    management space top of standards (TMF, IETF, OpenConfig)

    Lack of scalability with centralized • Use a VNF based micro-service to report


    config management systems incremental config changes
    • Policy based orchestration directs automated
    remediation leveraging config baselines

    APIs
    TMF 664 Resource Configuration and Activation – R17.5.0
     Resource Function APIs (/api/resourceFunction) – Trigger Centralized Config Manager for VNF discovery &
    pushing service level config.
    ✓ Proposed Enhancements to TMF 664 API:
    1. API should support template based service configurations utilizing standard data models like YANG
    2. VNF identifier (resource-id) to be present in all the APIs so as to allow the VNF microservice to identify the
    resource function when notifying of changes. The same identifier used by other systems like the
    orchestrator
     Resource Function Notification APIs (/api/resourceFunction/notify) – Trigger configuration changes notification
    to Centralized configuration Manager
    ✓ Proposed Enhancements to TMF 664 API:
    1. Configuration deltas to be captured as a part of the notification APIs. Further work may include using a
    yang modelled abstraction of the data.
    2. Resource Function Notification APIs should have a provision to notify whether config changes applied by
    user on device should be considered as “Golden Config” or not. A Golden Config True/False field should be
    added in API
    3. Resource function API should have provision to supress the notification updates so that user can decide
    whether to notify the changes or not

     Resource Function Heal APIs (/api/resourceFunction/heal) – This API is used via Orchestrator to trigger service
    restoration lifecycle event to Centralized Configuration Manager to re-configure the VNF with stored golden config

    ✓ Proposed Enhancements to TMF 664 API:


    1. VNF identifier (resource-id) to be present in all the APIs so as to allow the VNF microservice to identify the
    resource function when notifying of changes. The same identifier used by other systems like the

    Demo
    • Demo 1 - Service config & baseline the config in data store
    • Instantiation of network service via OSM and push the day 0/day 1 configuration on VNFs
    • OSM to invoke TMF 664 API to push day 2 configuration on VNF via Config Manager (resource creation API)
    • Demo end-to-end traffic flow between two hosts
    • Config Manager stores updates in golden configuration of VNF

    • Demo 2 – Config change notify microservice


    • Do manual configuration changes on VNF
    • Change notify microservice in VNF triggers configuration change notification API (TMF 664 resource change
    notification API)
    • Config Manager saves the related configuration changes in golden configuration repository

    • Demo 3 - Config restore during service outage scenario


    • Manually induce fault in network service
    • Trigger service restoration lifecycle event on OSM Orchestrator
    • OSM re-instantiates & restores Day 0/1 configuration
    • OSM Triggers Config Management API to restore last known golden configuration for the VNF (TMF 664 resource
    heal API)
    • Config manager restores configuration of VNF to activate end to end network service
    • Demo end-to-end traffic flow between two hosts
