VNFs (represented by Docker containers in the emulated) So we need to instantiate API endpoints (e.g. a zerorpc or REST interface). Depending on the endpoint implementations, we can connect one or more data centers to it, which can then be controlled through this API, e.g., start/stop/list compute instances.

For our example, we create a second endpoint to illustrate that this is supported by our design. This feature allows us to have one API endpoint for each data center. This makes the emulation environment more realistic because you can easily create one OpenStack-like REST API endpoint for *each* data center. This will look like a real-world multi PoP/data center deployment from the perspective of an orchestrator.
