Respected Authors,

Correct me if I am wrong there must be packet loss to be tested isn't as a port of HA. How the packet will be routed during the failover time kindly clarify.

3.2
. Failover Time Check
Even though the components of NFV infrastructure are redundant,
failover time can be long. For example, when a failure happens, the
VNF with failure stops and should be replaced by backup VNF but the
time to be shifted to the new VNF can be varied with the VNF;
stateless or stateful. Namely, redundancy does not guarantees high
availability and short failover time is required to reach high
availability. This section discusses strategy about measuring
failover time.

Could you please clarify the benchmarking on stateful and stateless failover.

Regards,
Sudhin
