Objectives of NFV
• Leverage Virtualization Technology for Network and
Telecom Industry
• Map complex Network functions into standard IT
infrastructure such as servers, storage, switches
• Open Framework for all eco-system players to
participate
• Deploy services faster to end customers

NFV Jargon
• NFV – Network Functions Virtualization
• VNF – Virtualized Network Function
• OSS – Operations Support System
• BSS – Business Support System
• NFVI – Network Function Virtualization Manager
• VIM – Virtual Infrastructure Manager
• MANO – Management and Orchestration

Logical Layers
1. VNF – A software implementation of any network function that can
be mapped to NVFI
2. NFVI – The NV infrastructure is a combination of software and
hardware elements that enables virtualization. NFVI is scalable
and can span across multiple locations
3. MANO – Management and Orchestration framework for controlling
the managing NFVI and VNF layers

Role of RHOSP
• Cloud Virtualization in NFV is typically based on RedHat
Open Stack Platform (RHOSP)
• Underlying OS is Redhat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)
• Virtualization Platform is OpenStack

Sample OpenStack Services
• Nova – for virtual compute server
• Neutron – for virtual networking
• Cinder – for block storage
• Volumes – for storage and disk volumes
• Many more…
