ONAP-SDWAN_v02.pptx

Description:

• SD-WAN is an emerging VPN technology for Large Enterprises with highly distributed locations, where each location can have one or several connections to internet from different Network Infrastructure Providers with Best Effort quality, rather then expensive MPLS, Dedicated Optical lines or Satellite services.
• SD-WAN currently under standardization in different SDOs, like MEF, ONF, BBF, but several vendors already exist on the market, offering proprietary SD-WAN solutions.
• To be Open, ONAP SD-WAN Use Case will refer to following standards:
  1. MEF LSO API, SD-WAN Use Cases
  2. BBF: WT-328
  3. IETF: draft-ietf-netconf-zerotouch
• ONAP SD-WAN Use Case will be divided on series of Sud-Use Cases ranged by complexity, providing more and more capabilities and features for every next Sud-Use Case, based on top the previous:

...

Users and Benefit:

• From the User customer perspective, SD-WAN solution is an overlay technology, which allow refuse expensive provides an alternative of dedicated MPLS lines from Network Providers.
• From the Network Service Providers perspective, SD-WAN is a solution to be not just a “pipe” for OTT providers, but also take role of “Network Service Provider” and chance to earn money on additional services for the Customersmore than a protected “pipe” service. Network Service Provider can provide value-added services such as security to the customers on top of SD-WAN.
• From the ONAP perspective, SD-WAN Use Case is demonstrate Orchestration capabilities for Distributed VNFs, Configuration Management for VNF and PNF, Policy Enforcement for Overlay Traffic, Standard ZTP and APIsdemonstrates how a complex service including customer device provisioning, cloud and on-site VNF configuration and management, and VNF life-cycle and HA management being orchestrated by ONAP framework.

Sub-Use Case #1.

...

Architecture:

1. Before initial VPN service will be provided, ONAP will demonstrate initial device configuration (ZTP, Zero Touch Provisioning), based on a IETF I-D: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-netconf-zerotouch.
2. Configuration Management on the Edges as a simplest scenario for VPN Service creation.
