Abstract
A Network Function Virtualization (NFV) Software Defined Network (SDN) performs a network task. An NFV management system processes Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to identify the network task and to direct an NFV orchestration system to install a virtual Probe (vProbe) with filter criteria to collect additional KPIs for the network task. The NFV orchestration system directs an NFV Infrastructure (NFVI) to install the vProbe. The vProbe sends the filter criteria to a virtual Switch (vSW) in the NFVI, and the vSW applies the filter criteria to Virtual Network Function (VNF) traffic and transfers the filtered data to the vProbe. The vProbe processes the filtered data to generate the additional KPIs for the NFV management system. The NFV management system processes the additional KPIs to perform the network task.
