Automatic configuration of virtual network functions

Abstract:

A device can receive virtual network function (VNF) data associated with multiple VNFs. The device can generate multiple configuration templates that are to be used by a network design tool that is capable of creating a design of a network for an organization. The device can receive, from a user device, object data associated with network design objects that have been added to or removed from the interface of the network design tool. The device can generate multiple VNF configuration files that allow two or more of the multiple VNFs to be supported by network devices associated with the organization. The device can perform actions associated with configuring two or more of the multiple VNFs onto the network devices to permit the network devices to utilize virtual resources while executing the two or more of the multiple VNFs.
