PnP DUBLIN WORK ITEM | DESCRIPTION |
CTL1: Controller PNF Interaction | [CONTROLLER] Controller definition (SDN-C) came so late in Casablanca, we had defined some additional optional parameter for the step37 Service Configuration but likely more evolution needs to be done. SDN-C was not the theoretical proper controller and people objected as this is conceptually the L0-L3 controller. [STEP 35-37] - The SO to SDN-C and Controller to PNF exchange (Ansible or NetConf) was a carry-over item from R3. This requires that an API between SO to SDN-C is in place to support this. It requires that SDN-C support the appropriate Ansible Playbook and Directed Graph. Controller Design Studio (Design Time) - to customize configuration. This might be used to set the values of parameters that might be send down to a PNF. |
PRH IMPACTS
PnP DUBLIN WORK ITEM | DESCRIPTION | ||||||||
| PRH1: A&AI New PNF Schema Adaptation | New A&AI schema adaptations: Chesla Wechsler found a discrepancy between PNFs and VNFs; VNFs are identified via VNF-ID (UUID), and PNFs - via PNF-name. PNF-id = UUID; PNF-name = Correlation ID. PRH use search API to find PNF instance based on PNF-name then get the PNF-id. pnfRegistration VES Event to get the Key to search A&AI. use "sourcename" (part of VES Common header). Take value of sourcename search A&AI to find a PNF entry. In R3/Casa search against PNF-name = sourcename (search for object get PNFid); In R4/Dublin search against PNF-name = sourcename (with a different API). search for object. Change in primary key in A&AI. ASSOCIATED DEVELOPMENT: See task A&AI1 and SO4.

| PRH2: PRH with actual DU | It would be nice if in Dublin (or Frankfurt) if the Plug and Play Use Case actually worked with a real DU. | ||||||||
| PRH3: Integration | [PRH] There might be more integration or development for the PRH in Dublin. |
