OPNFV Security Group – Project Objectives
• We are an an ‘umbrella’ group to encourage development of security centric functions within the OPNFV eco-system.– Architecture
– Documentation
– Code review
– Upstream inter-work with other groups
– Vulnerability management
– Security research

OPNFV Security Group – Current Status
• We have two active projects:– Inspector
• Encourage Security Audit Event in Upstream Projects
– Moon
• Security Orchestration in OPNFV Platform
• Number or participants: – Four
• Started in Jan 22, 2015

OPNFV Security Group – Call to Arms
• We need people who have an interest in all aspects of cloud and NFV security to join us.
• Contact info:– https://wiki.opnfv.org/security
– Meeting Times Every Wednesday at 14:00pm UTC
– IRC #opnfv-sec NOTE: we almost only meet on IRC
– Main Contact: Luke Hinds – [email protected]

Functional Testing in OPNFV
• We provide comprehensive testing to verify OPNFV Platform functionality specifically around the VIM and NFVI
• Work:– Test cases are selected then integrated into the CI with new
scenarios being developed and added to the existing ones.
– Analysis of the results (same test suites run on several test beds in various OPNFV Labs (Pharos federation via Octopus)
• Goal– Contribute to robustness & Interoperability of OPNFV
– Define KPI of the Telco Cloud2023-04-15
Functional Testing in OPNFV
• Arno release included BGS+Octopus+Pharos+Functest+Doc
• Functest was used to:– setup test tooling (Rally + Robot)
– run test cases including one that could be considered as performance testing
– Integrate test cases into CI
• For Release 2 we need to synthetize the role of each testing umbrella project
• It's best to have overlapping tests rather than not enough2023-04-15
Functional testing in OPNFV - FuncTest
• Current open task/issues (JIRA used to track such things)– FUNCTEST-1: Rally Bench
– FUNCTEST-2: Tempest
– FUNCTEST-3: vPing
– FUNCTEST-4: vIMS
– FUNCTEST-5: SDN Controller suite
– FUNCTEST-6: CI automation
– FUNCTEST-7: CI -automation

Functional Testing in OPNFV - FuncTest
• Please join our testing team:– Indicate to the project (mail or IRC) that you would like to join
– Include your skills and interests and any past experience
• For more info: – https://wiki.opnfv.org/_media/opnfv-_functest.pdf
– #opnfv-testperf on Freenode IRC we are always online
• We need people to automate and troubleshoot test cases
• To leverage big data and analytics to play with the results

Performance Testing in OPNFV
• Yardstick: NFVI verification from VNF perspective– offers both functional and performance test cases addressing
the whole system (where Rally for instance is more used for OpenStack and Robot used for ODL)
• Q-Tip: performance characterization of NFVI bottom-up in white-box
• VSPERF: Virtual Switch Performance
• DPACC: Hardware-assisted Data Plane Acceleration

OPNFV specific qualities - IPv6 Current Project Status• Goals
– A meta distribution of IPv6-enabled OPNFV platform
– A methodology of evolving IPv6 OPNFV
• Deliverables:– A script to automate the configuration and provisioning of IPv6
features for both control nodes and virtual workloads
– An Installation Guide and/or User Guide with step-by-step instructions of manual configuration of IPv6 features
– Test cases adapted to IPv6 specific use cases
– Gap analysis and Recommendation for next steps2023-04-15
OPNFV specific qualities - IPv6 Next Steps
• A multi-site, multi-node PoC design and implementation to explore auto configuration and provisioning of IPv6
• Enable community test labs with IPv6 for both internal and external networking of control nodes and virtual workloads.
• Complete easy installation package– Automated configuration script
– Installation Guide
– ISO installer
• Test case development to identify gaps2023-04-15

OPNFV Policy - Project Copper / Congress
• Copper was established by Byran from AT&T to define OPNFV specific use cases for Intent and Policy Auditing
• Examples include Local and Geo Redundancy
• Affinity and Anti-Affinity for workloads and processes
• Security controls
