Use cases and scenarios
=======================
-There are several use cases related to Edge NFV:

+1. vE-CPE.
+ [vE-CPE]_ is related to most popupar NFV use case where NFVI compute node is
located at customer premises. Typical applications are virtual Firewall and Virtual BGP router;
- VNF chain can be hosted in vE-CPU host and/or DC

+2. Stand-alone vE-CPE.
It is the same as above but all virtual appliances are hosted at the same CPE compute node.
-3. Residential GW.
- Similar to vE-CPE, the major difference is scale. Typical VNFs are "WAN fault monitoring",
- "Performance monitoring". Ratio between deplyed vE-CPE
- and Residential GW might reach 1:100 or even 1:1000, thus VNF management overhead must be minimized.
- For instance, self-termination after predefined activity period seems preferable over

In most cases CPE is connected to Metro Ethernet [#f1]_ .
