42 <para>Enea solution for in-band management is based on Open vSwitch bridge
43 which controll all the traffic passing the WAN physical port. NFV Access
44 assume that the activate connection with uCPE Manager is the one to be used
45 for in-band management. Physical port used by activate connection willbe
46 attached to the in-band management WAN bridge. The communication with uCPE
47 Manager should not be affected in the sense it is re-stablished
48 automatically after in-band management activation.</para>

50 <para>All network traffic except the one from uCPE Manager will be sent
51 towards VNF or dropped in case there is no VNF instantiated on the NFV
52 Access device. The VNF connected to WAN bridge must be configured for
53 in-band management since the traffic from VNF manager and data-path will be
54 sent to only one port(WAN) of the VNF. Only one VNF must be connected to the
55 in-band management WAN bridge. Please make sure the VNF accept in-band
56 management.</para>
