Abstract:

NFV is a core component of the operator network reconstitution,and open source is an important driving force to accelerate the development of NFV.How to use open source technology to promote the application of NFV in telecom network is a major issue faced by operators.NFV open source technology system was surveyed comprehensively according to the NFV reference framework proposed by ETSI,and the background,core technology and development trend of mainstream open source projects of NFVI,VNF and MANO was analyzed.Finally,some critical problems (such as technical bottlenecks,decoupling obstacles and operational difficulties) and corresponding solutions were presented to help operators to make better use of open source technology of NFV.

Key words: network function virtualization, open source, decoupling architecture, network reconstitution
