Abstract
A device may determine that a network function of a network is to use a secure communication protocol. The network function may be configured to facilitate communication via the network. The device may identify a component of a resource configuration that is to instantiate the network function. The device may instantiate, using the component, a proxy for the network function. The device may configure the proxy to obtain a certificate that is associated with the secure communication protocol. The device may cause the proxy to use the certificate to communicate with another proxy that is associated with the network function to perform an operation associated with the network function.
