7.2  Network Function Services  p. 580

7.2.1  General  p. 580

In the context of this specification, an NF service is offering a capability to authorised consumers.
Network Functions may offer different capabilities and thus, different NF services to distinct consumers. Each of the NF services offered by a Network Function shall be self-contained, reusable and use management schemes independently of other NF services offered by the same Network Function (e.g. for scaling, healing, etc).
The discovery of the NF instance and NF service instance is specified in clause 6.3.1.
Reproduction of 3GPP TS 23.501, Fig. 7.2.1-1: Network Function and NF Service

Up
Each NF service shall be accessible by means of an interface. An interface may consist of one or several operations.
