Figure 11-3 – The interfaces between the management plane and the network plane

11.2 The interfaces among layers of big-data-driven networking

Within the big data plane, the interface between the network sensing layer and network big data repository
layer is represented by iSD, and the interface between the network analyser layer and data intelligence and
service layer is represented by iAI. The interfaces between the other two layers are outside the scope of this
Recommendation.

Figure 11-4 – The interfaces among layers of big data plane

Within the network plane, the interface between the network infrastructure layer and network controlling
layer is represented by iIC, and the interface between the network controlling layer and network application
layer is represented by iCA.

Within the management plane, no interfaces need defining because there is not the necessary data
exchanging between several aspects within the management plane.
