> Abstract:
>    Network functions are traditionally implemented on specialized
>    hardware and less on commodity server, but there is a clear trend to
>    implement a number of network functions, such as firewall or load
>    balancer, as software on virtualized computing platforms.  These
>    virtualized functions are called Virtualized Network Functions
>    (VNFs).  We call a group of such VNFs a VNF set, which can be used to
>    build network services.  The use of VNF set to build network services
>    introduces additional challenges on reliability, such as additional
>    points of failure and the need to coordinate various VNFs in a VNF
>    set.
> 
>    This document discusses the problems related to the reliability of
>    VNF set.  A VNF pooling architecture is also briefly introduced, as
>    well as related IETF protocols.
