Abstract
Certain example embodiments may generally relate to multi-security levels/traffic management across multiple network function instantiations, including virtualized network function instantiations. A method may include configuring a first instantiation of a first network function to provide a first type of security. The method may also include configuring a second instantiation of the first network function to provide a second type of security that is different than the first type of security. The method may further include allocating at least some of the subscriber traffic to the first instantiation.
