NFV & MANO Practice Questions
ETSI NFV architecture and MANO orchestration of virtual network functions.
One solved question, so you can see how these are marked
Which architectural layer of the ETSI NFV framework is responsible for managing virtualized infrastructure resources (compute, storage, and networking) and hypervisors?
Virtualized Infrastructure Manager (VIM)
The VIM (e.g., OpenStack, VMware vCenter) controls and manages the NFVI compute, storage, and network resources.
Every question in the set below is marked like this. The answers stay hidden until you pick one.
