Discussion

• Brief roundtable intro from participants who had not joined previous calls.
• John: Update from NONRTRIC:
  • Gerrit repo https://gerrit.o-ran-sc.org/r/admin/repos/nonrtric and JIRA site https://jira.o-ran-sc.org/browse/NONRTRIC set up
  • Planning ongoing re candidates for NONRTRIC controller implementation  - SDNC based component looking most favourable
  • Action: Need to coordinate with Tommy Carpenter Former user (Deleted) John Keeney (Ericsson EST) about RIC dashboard & A1 mediation scope in NONRTRIC
• Martin: Update from OAM
  • Facilities set up in OSC continuing ...
  • Jump straight into discussion on slides ... see next ...
• Martin, All: Target/Reference architecture - Integration with ONAP  - based on diagrams used in WG documents etc
  • Draft Slides
    
  • Focus on Slide 5 - clearest picture
  • Are we only using REST for A1? - Yes ... except maybe for A1-EI part - may use a streaming interface - no decision made yet.
    • Action: John Keeney (Ericsson EST) Need a couple of sentences about why A1 uses REST on wiki
  • Should we split out constituent parts of A1? - Not yet ... perhaps wait until A1-EI is a bit clearer.
  • What is O1* interface .... ? Action Martin Skorupski - David Kinsey is the best guy to ask.
  • May need to consider non-event-bus NBIs between components in the OAM space - In practice these non-event (e.g. REST, streaming etc) interfaces will be needed, but would just overly-complicate the diagram.
  • Does CDS etc need to be included. Or APPC etc? ... Probably. Will become clearer, esp when O1* interface is a bit clearer.
• Tracy: Reminder about call for demos for ONS and MWC  (others?).
• Dongho: Have we plans/procedures in place for upstreaming changes back to ONAP? - Not yet. Discussion/Planning ongoing.
  • Good potential to engage with ONAP 5G usecases for ONAP Frankfurt - still time to engage with Frankfurt planning.
• Action: Could Tommy Carpenter Former user (Deleted) please present a short update on the A1 parts of the NearRTRIC dashboard etc next week? - Yes.

• Call cut short at T+58mniutes due to bridge reuse.
