Connection point related performance measurements in a network function virtualization environment
Abstract:
An apparatus of a Virtualized Network Function Manager (VNFM) comprises one or more processors to receive one or more performance measurements related to a virtual network interface that are collected for a virtual compute instance from a Virtualized Infrastructure Manager (VIM) in a collection interval, to map a measured object of the one or more performance measurements from the virtual compute instance to a Virtual Network Function (VNF) and/or VNF component (VNFC) instance, and to map the virtual network interface to a connection point (CP) associated with the VNF or VNFC instance, to generate one or more performance measurements related the CP for the VNF or VNFC instance. The one or more performance measurements related the CP for the VNF or VNFC instance are to be reported to an Element Manager (EM) or to a Network Function Virtualization Orchestrator (NFVO), or a combination thereof.
