      • Description: 

        • With Dublin, a new mode is available in SO to instantiate a service : the "macro" mode.

          In SDC, a service can be declared with an instantiationType equal to "A-la-carte" or equal to "Macro". This information is then available in the Tosca service definition file.

          When "Macro" mode is chosen for a service, the SO will use different kind of BPMN workflow.

          This "macro" mode need to be managed by NBI.

          NBI needs to look at service definition in Tosca file, select the mode, build the "macro" request toward SO  when service instantiationType is "Macro". 

          REQUEST 1 : NBI have to send a request to SO with the parameter "aLaCarte": false when instantiationType is Macro in service definition file

          In macro mode, the SO request may also contain, in the "userParams" section, all needed information about VNFs and VF-module(s) to be instantiated.

          All those necessary information are in the Tosca service definition file generated by SDC.

          If NBI do not fill those information, the serviceOrder sent to NBI will have to provide those informations (that means an external system will have to do the job)

          REQUEST 2 : NBI to look at VNF, VF-module and Network in the Tosca service definition file in order to build the full "macro" request toward SO.

      • Description: 

        • SO can use two kind of API with SDNC : Generic-Resource API (GR_API) or VNF_API.It seems that it is better to indicate to SO to use GR_API now. It is the value of the field "testApi" that need to be modified in SO request to instantiate service object. Can be an environment variable.

      • Integration 
        • Integrate External API/NBI within ONAP DMaap for authenticated topics ( Adrian )
        • Integrate External API/NBI with AAF for security enhancement, introduce https support  ( Matthieu )

    Use Cases

    The existing use cases are still going to be supported ( BBS, CCVPN ) and additional use cases will be supported for the Frankfurt Release (as defined by the Control loop sub committee and TSC).

    5G Network Slicing Use case is a new use case which have plans to use External API Service Order APIs to Create, Delete and modify Communication Services. The hope is to reuse existing Service Order APIs. Some enhancements may be needed, mainly in the ability to modify a service ( updateType, pending support from SO ) plus allowing serviceType to be an optional parameter in the Service Order ( used in AAI ).

    Impact assessment completed by Adrian, updates only to support Service Ordering considered in Frankfurt timescale.
