NFV Service Density

NFV Service Density is benchmarked in three distinct NF service configurations:

  • VNF Service Chains Routing

  • CNF Service Chains Routing

  • CNF Service Pipelines Routing

  • VNF Service Chains Tunnels

Each configuration is tested in a number of service density combinations [Number of Service Instances] x [Number of NFs per Service Instance]. The actual tested range is based on available CPU physical core resources.
