scope:

The present document describes a set of informative interoperability test guidelines for NFV capabilities that require interactions between the components implementing NFV functionality, namely, the NFVO, VNFM, EM-VNF and VIM-NFVI (Functions under Test).

The guidelines in the present document follow the interoperability testing methodology described in ETSI GS NFV-TST 002 [i.1] and are implementation agnostic. The capabilities in scope are enabled by the interfaces on the main NFV reference points between the Functions Under Test:

• Or-Vi;

• Or-Vnfm;

• Vi-Vnfm; and

• Ve-Vnfm.
