• Create VFC Instance group based per Sub-interface network role

Network role is based on Port ID as defined in the HEAT Guidelines:

 

Comment: if either the parent port or the sub-interface port do not following naming convention - do not create the group, while logging to the log

• Group should be created on the level where the VFCs are defined
  • In patterns 1-4 - on main TOSCA
  • On Complex VFC - in the inner TOSCA where the VFC is defined
• Members: all VFCs with a sub-interface of the same network role
• VFC Instance Group should be derived from the new group type as defined above
• Assign value to:

• •  subinterface_role from subinterface network role property.

• • vfc_parent_port_role - the parent port role (we assume it will be the same for all members, so just pick first one)

• For the other two parameters - expose as new input parameter named: <subinterface_network_role>_<Group parameter name>

•  

In case of Compl;ex VFC, on the main TOSCA we will have input per <subinterface_network_role>_<Group parameter name> so in case two nested have groups of the same role, same input will be used by both
