Abstract:
Network edge applications such as subscriber termination, firewalls,
tunnel switching, intrusion detection, and routing are currently
provided using dedicated network function hardware. As network
function is migrated from dedicated hardware platforms into a
virtualized environment, a set of use cases with application specific
requirements begin to emerge. These use cases and requirements cover
a broad range of capability and objectives, which will require
detailed investigation and documentation in order to identify
relevant architecture, protocol and procedure solutions.
This document provides an analysis of the key management requirements
for applications that may be hosted within a virtualized environment.
These engineering requirements are based on a variety of goals
including: virtual application security, reliability, scalability,
performance, management and automation.
Note that this document is not intended to provide or recommend
solutions.
