Goal for Frankfurt version is disaggregation of SDN-R container disaggregatedinto three major parts.

  1. UXWeb - Web service
  2. Devicemanager - Device controlling
  3. WTDB

...

  1. - Database

More detailed information under SDN-R Release/SDN-R Release Frankfurt

A further goal is the the enable SDN-R to be used and extended by O-RAN-SC.

  • model-driven DMaaP Agent
  • Extend SDN-R for O-RAN specific YANG-Specs and devicemanagers.

SDN-R Disaggregation means

  • Better split regarding performance from the three originations: 1. devices southbound 2. Web users northbound 3. database processing.
  • Have one entrypoint for Web User access to different web services of SDN-R: UX Web Service, REST, RESTCONF, Netconf device related
  • Use ONAP database components

First proposal

  • SDNC/CCSDK/SDNR Devicemanager cluster/Netconf
    • Provide function to support NETCONF/devicehandling by devicemanagers for one OpenDaylight mountpoint in a cluster.
    • Provider to consuming microservices to publish mountpoint state changes and capabilites of NETCONF/device.  (Used by O-RAN-SC OAM) (model-driven DMaaP Agent)
  • Solution integration test covers O-RAN-SC OAM (Operations and Maintenance) Scenarios.
  • RPC/bundle for devicemanager configuration service
  • SDNR WEB service  is entry point for WEB Browser/Client

Used from CCSDK

  • IP V6 .. Web and Server side (Actually moved to Guilin)
  • Java 11 (Actually moved to Guilin)
  • Use new "Databroker" MDSAL interface

WEB Client

  • Data table access via extended odlux db api. See ODLUX DB API
  • configApp support Core model 1.4
  • connectApp accept IPV6 and DNS names
  • NEW aai App

Architecture

  • Three node types for wt service: Web service cluster, Devicemanager cluster, DB cluster
  • Features are provided by CCSDK/features/sdnr. 
  • One SDN-C/SDN-R image. Node types are configured:
    • by configuration parameter: WTSDNR-WEB, WTSDNR-DEVICEMANAGER, WTSDNR-DB
    • El Alto configuration "WTSDNR" not supported anymore
  • Server platform (Bold new in Frankfurt):
    • WEB: SDNC/ODL/Karaf: apigateway, odlux, helpserver, dataprovider
    • DEVICEMANAGER SDNC/ODL/Karaf: devicemodel, devicemanager, websocketmanager2 (Discussion: dataprovider as devicemanager DB client service)
    • DB: Alpine + Elasticsearch (ODL/Karaf not nessecary) .. Existing ONAP ES Image if possible.
  • APIGateway: Add RestConf Forwarding
  • DB as a Service
  • WS notification forwarding to WEB Service and Client
  • Devicemanager disaggregation for multi-technolgy support. (Used for CoreModel 1.4)
    • Goal: Different devicemanager bundles, managing netconf devices. E.g. devicemanager1.2, devicemanager1.4, DevicemanagerPM. 
    • See SDNC-848
    • Selection depends on capabilites provided by hello-answer
    • Create Mountpoint Status Provider:
