| Title |
Network Functions Virtualisation (NFV) Release 3; Testing; Specification of Networking Benchmarks and Measurement Methods for NFVI NFVI_Benchmarks |
||||||
|
Scope and Field of Application |
This work item will specify vendor-agnostic definitions of performance metrics and the associated methods of measurement for Benchmarking networks supported in the NFVI. The Benchmarks and Methods will take into account the communication-affecting aspects of the compute/networking/virtualization environment (such as the transient interrupts that block other processes, or the ability to dedicate variable amounts of resources to communication processes). These Benchmarks are intended to serve as a basis for fair comparison of different implementations of NFVI, (composed of various hardware and software components) according to each individual Benchmark and networking configuration evaluated. Note that a Virtual Infrastructure Manager (VIM) may play a supporting role in configuring the network under test. Example of existing Benchmarks include RFC 2544 Throughput and Latency (developed for physical network functions). |
