Architecture
The high-level architecture of the RAN simulator and its interface to ONAP is shown below.
- Honeycomb simulator shall be used to simulate the Netconf server.
- Each netconf server will run as standalone process or Docker container
- The netconf servers will be spawned by RANSim Controller based on the topology specified.
- Python scripts and client will seed the initial configuration for each Node.
- Each netconf server can send a mount request to SDN-R when they are spawned.
- ran-neighbor-list update notification will be sent by netconf server to SDN-R based on the trigger from RANSim Controller
- Will be able to accept phy-cell-id update trigger from SDN-R and forward same to RANSim Controller
