Specific requirements for using the new mechanism to transfer periodic performance measurements for PNFs/VNFs implementing 3GPP network functions (e g RAN)

When using the bulk transmission mechanism to transfer bulk monitoring data to ONAP/DCAE to support 5G/PNF, the 3GPP format should be supported.

For 3GPP formatted measurement data and for consumers that prefer such data in VES format, an optional 3GPP PM Mapper micro-service is planned that can extract selected measurements from a 3GPP XML file and publish them as VES events on a DMaaP Message Router topic. The mapper receives the files by subscribing to a Data Router feed.

• R-xxxx: xNF should support at least 3GPP TS 32.435 schema
