Agenda

  1. Share the updates in Transport Slicing since Guilin
  2. Bring up topics of discussion for Transport Slicing especially in the RAN context
  3. AOB

Notes and Actions

  1. Henry Yu presented the updates in Transport Slicing since Guilin, and the roadmap. He also shared alignment with ETSI ZSM, and some open topics for discussion. Presentation slides: ONAP_Transport_RAN_slicing_discussion_Mar_11_2021_v1.0.pptx
  2. The foll. points were discussed:
    • Fronthaul slicing: At this stage, there are some challenges w.r.to Fronthaul slicing, and being discussed also in O-RAN. Shinobu Nanba shared some insights on this topic. From ONAP perspective, we will keep it simple at this stage, while having the Transport Slicing framework generic to be able to accommodate Fronthaul Slicing in future with minimum/no impacts to the overall framework.
    • Creation of TN slices upfront: This may not always be practical, so dynamic creation should be supported.
    • Reservation and then actual allocation of slice sub-net instances: This is more of an implementation decision.
  3. It was agreed to have the next joint call when there are some updates from O-RAN side, perhaps after 3-4 weeks.
