Abstract
Systems and methods described herein enable a slice orchestration platform to provide flexibility for network function (NF)-type specific configuration generation workflow without sacrificing automation of design and deployment. According to one implementation, a network device stores workflows for Configuration Information Questionnaire (CIQ) automation; receives a vendor network function (NF) package; obtains site information for an instance of the vendor NF; generates site-specific artifacts for the NF package based on the workflows and the site information; and associates the site-specific artifacts with a configuration design for the NF package.
