Title:
COLLECTION OF VNF (VIRTUAL NETWORK FUNCTION) PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENTS RELATED TO VIRTUALIZED RESOURCES
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2018/022951
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Techniques for facilitating PM (Performance Measurement) data notification are discussed. In various aspects, techniques are discussed for: creating PM jobs at a NFVI (Network Function Virtualization Infrastructure) based on a request from a NM (Network Manager), providing an acknowledgement of PM job creation, and reporting available PM data to the NM.
