Discussion

NONRTRIC

  • Release A preparations
    • Components:
      • Prototype SDNC-based A1 adapter component, impleenting a pre-spec version of A1 protocol southbound, with a restconf-like northbound interface
      • Very lightweight A1 terminator to simulate/stub near-rtric for integration/testing
      • Dashboard function for PolicyType/PolicyInstance manipulation
    • Currently working through License checks ... ongoing
    • Repos: perhaps some of the functions should be split out into sub-repos, or moved to more appropriate existing repos ... ongoing
    • Documentation and wiki contributions is a high priority ... ongoing
    • Integration: Unclear if we will be able to achieve integration with Dashborad & nearRTRIC functions. We will continue to try for Release A timeframe. ... ongoing.
  • Tracy: Anything to Demo in Dec timeframe (Plugfest?), or later in Q1 2020?. John: Not for December - timelines are too tight. January etc should be fine.

  • Release B:
    • A1 adapter will be based on CDS
      • Comments, suggestions are very welcome.
    • Trying to break down usecases into more concrete requirments.
    • Need to work even more closely with RSAC and other projects to align requirements and priorities.
    • Ongoing challenges trying to scope NONRTRIC - SMO - OAM scope and boundaries
  • Release B usecase:
    • As proposed by RSAC. Excellent usecase that exercises may parts of NONRTRIC and other ORAN functions. Many functions may not be available in Release B timescales - so significant simplifications may be needed. Will continue working through issues.
  • A1 interface specification is now released.
  • Costa Rica Meeting
    • Generally positive feedback about NONRTRIC project & OSC
    • Welcome proposal to flush out description of the SMO/Non-RealTime RIC functions. Overlaps WG1 and WG2?
      • This group can provide significant input here. Need to ensure that contributions are not too ONAP-specific.
  • Continued discussing ONAP/OSC way of working ... ongoing

  • Committer (nonrtric): Propose Henrik Andersson as an additional committer for nonrtric repo. Need to investigate which is current procedure for adding new committers.

OAM
