  • https://wiki.lfnetworking.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=68786848

• Suggestions:

  • Panel/BoF session:

    1. integration across multiple projects (e.g ONAP, OSC, 5GSBP etc)

       • benefits of collaboration between the projects

       • Initial distribution list for off-line discussion: @John Keeney (Ericsson EST) @Martin Skorupski @Gervais-Martial Ngueko @N.K. Shankaranarayanan @Timo Perala (Nokia) @ChrisC @Ranny Haiby

  • Demo :

    1. Follow on OSC SMO integration in it/dep  (maybe at DTF instead of ONES)

       • Based on 5G SBP SMO demo at LFN DTF  

       • ONAP/O-RAN-SC/....

    2. ONAP SON use case?  (again maybe DTF)

ONAP / OSC Copyright issues:

• After some discussion at ONAP TSC:

  • We still don't know how to reuse (parts of) specs - not just names etc. 

    • Maybe the last request/reply didn't capture our needs.

  • Need a followup with @Magnus Buhrgard

• Current discussion focus on 3GPP overlap with O1 Yang models - but discussion is broader - more than just Yang models, & more than just 3GPP - same issue with O-RAN Alliance too.

Tacker in OSC SMO - Plans

• Yuya Kuno from OpenStack Tacker

  • Discussing G-Release plan in the O-RAN SC SMO

  • Slides:
    

  • Discussion:

    • Current focus on V-/O-DU VNF rather than a CNF version.

    • Unclear relationship with NFVO & relationship to Element Manager

    • Not clear how the NF OAM adapter fits in here, is it an O1 adapter to vDU? 

    • Will the focus be an OAM management use case, or orchestration/LCM usecase?

  • Need a follow up call at a time suitable for Tacker team.
