Claim 10:
11. A system comprising:
a first Virtual Network Function (VNF) that represents a corresponding first data-plane object and operates within a control-plane, the first VNF supports quality of service QoS chaining to coordinate an interchange of QoS diagnostics across a plurality of chained VNFs;
a second VNF coupled to the first VNF, the second VNF represents a corresponding second data-plane object and operates within the control-plane, the second VNF further supports QoS chaining; and
an orchestrator operable in the control-plane, the orchestrator receives QoS diagnostic data from the first and second VNFs and comprises a processor that executes instructions that cause steps to be performed comprising:
in response to receiving QoS diagnostic data from the first and second VNFs, chains the plurality of VNFs to provide end-to-end QoS diagnostics across the VNFs, the orchestrator, based at least in part on the received QoS diagnostics, assigns classes of service (CoS) and resources across the VNFs to increase a service level and a bandwidth in real-time.
