Metadata

Publisher: IETF
Doc Type: Informational
Pages: 15
Abstract: The Benchmarking Methodology Working Group has traditionally conducted laboratory characterization of dedicated physical implementations of internetworking functions. This memo investigates additional considerations when network functions are virtualized and performed in general-purpose hardware.
