How to deploy the near-RT RIC?

  • Option 1 Using the "traditional" install shell script: Demo on how to deploy the near-RT RIC, compile and connect the E2 simulator, compile the hello-world go xapp and how use the dms_cli to deploy it ((Existing recording from previous release is still valid) )
    • Supported way of deploying the near-RT RIC using the RIC "install.sh" script. Existing recording from previous release is still valid. I.e., the demo will talk about the H release, but the same steps are valid for the I release (except for when selecting the "recipe", which should be the one for "I").
