-The ETSI defines a Network Service as a set of configurable VNFs working in
-some NFV Infrastructure connecting each other using Virtual Links available
-through Connection Points. The ETSI MANO specification defines a set of
-management entities called Network Service Descriptors (NSD) and
-VNF Descriptors (VNFD) that define real Network Service. The picture below
-makes an example how the real Network Operator use-case can map into ETSI
-Network service definition
-
-Network Service framework performs the necessary test steps. It may involve
-
- - Interacting with traffic generator and providing the inputs on traffic
- type / packet structure to generate the required traffic as per the
- test case. Traffic profiles will be used for this.
-
- - Executing the commands required for the test procedure and analyses the
- command output for confirming whether the command got executed correctly
- or not. E.g. As per the test case, run the traffic for the given
- time period / wait for the necessary time delay
-
- - Verify the test result.
-
- - Validate the traffic flow from SUT
-
- - Fetch the table / data from SUT and verify the value as per the test case
-
- - Upload the logs from SUT onto the Test Harness server
-
- - Read the KPI's provided by particular VNF
