Abstract
In some examples, a system monitors a network that includes a collection of interconnected virtual network functions (VNFs), the monitoring comprising receiving control information from a VNF of the VNFs, the control information specifying an action to take to address an issue detected by the VNF. Responsive to the monitoring, the system modifies an allocation of resources to the VNF.
