Configuration with OAI at Taiwan Lab

@bimo fransiscus asisi c/o @Martin Skorupski

INT plan will support to do testing using OAI because we have successful integration attempt with i and rather than trial-and-error approach with OAI, we want to use what proven to be successful in OAI into OSCHow to change the parameters https://hackmd.io/fx7gYOpHSNSJOe0De1aaRA?view#Configuration (@Ankit Barve@ASHWINI BHAGAT)

How to address e2e?!?!? 

  • required for e2e testing

  • What are O-RAN WGs/FGs defining!

    • Module up health check

      • ???  → O2?!??!?

    • Interface periodically health check 

      • e.g. OAM O1 WG#10 → ves healthcheck

      • e.g OFHM WG#4 → supervision

  • best practice from OTIC → TIFG

AI working on it!

  • security

  • e2, a1, o2, r1,  ...

  • 3gPP interface → F1, E1 

Idea of a "private" session in 2 to 3 weeks.
