name: VNFCI
full_form: Virtualised Network Function Component Instance
context: Execution Steps Execute the following steps: 1. The tester checks whether the inter-VNF traffic and intra-VNF traffic are separated according the document by the vendor. For example, the tester checks whether the different network segments used by inter-VNF traffic and intra-VNF traffic respectively. 2. The tester checks whether a VNFCI refuses inter-VNF traffic on all intra-VNF interfaces. For example, the tester can send ping to all intra-VNF interfaces through an inter-VNF interface. 3. The tester checks whether a VNFCI refuses intra-VNF traffic on all inter-VNF interfaces. For example, the tester can send ping to all inter-VNF interfaces through an intra-VNF interface. Expected Results: In the step 1, the inter-VNF traffic and intra-VNF traffic are separated according the document by the vendor. In the step 2 and step 3, the VNFCI refuses traffic. Expected format of evidence: A PASS or FAIL.
description: A Virtualised Network Function Component Instance (VNFCI) is a component of a virtualized network function that provides specific functionality within a network. It is responsible for handling traffic and ensuring security by separating inter-VNF and intra-VNF traffic, as well as refusing unauthorized traffic on its interfaces.
explanation: The context describes VNFCI's role in managing and securing network traffic, which aligns with the core function of a Network Function. Its responsibilities for traffic separation and authorization enforcement further solidify its classification.
