- Review roadmap from Jakarta. It would be great that we reviewed what we defined in our roadmap for Jakarta. What has been done and what it is left.image2022-1-18_15-54-1.png (1166×618) (onap.org) (Catherine Lefevre )
- Move to next week
For CNFO there is CNF Upgrade work to be completed in Kohn. (Lukasz Rajewski )
- On track to deliver in Kohn
For other more heavy topics we need to discuss further on ONAP/EMCO, especially when Nephio came to the picture. I believe Nephio will become more a requirement for deployment of specific CNFs and it must be firstly adopted by CNF vendors, but ONAP will have to integrate with it at some point. Also, due to the fact the Nephio opts against orchestration of helm packages we should think on consequences of this approach in a long term as helm is used in CNFO, ASD and EMCO. (Lukasz Rajewski )
- Wait until after the Nephio summit. Follow up next week.
I would like to discuss further about the plans of ASD integration into ONAP, beyond the PoC phase. (Lukasz Rajewski )
- Concern about the separate flows/APIs for CNF orchestration using ASD.
- Need input from Ericsson about the effort to merge the flows.
Drafting the ONAP CNF requirements for CNF conformance and verification badges. Understand if we are mature enough to start with a first iteration of a “ONAP compliance CNF” verification/badge? Yan Yang (Olivier Smith )
Nephio vs. MANO (no ETSI NFVO, no VNFM/CNFM, may not CNFO) and pushes down CNF management to Kubernetes; i.e., Kubernetes-based Cloud automation. They are using CRDs (for Infrastructure, Workload and configuration). I expect significant changes around the way of helm chart-based CNF management if Nephio is applied. We will see… (Byung-Woo Jun )
). Anuket Assured Program (AAP) - we were discussing on how to draft and establish the basic requirements for CNF conformance and validation badging using ONAP. So I would like to bring this to your notice to discuss further on it. (user-67d6f )
- Yan Yang presented the different certification types of Anuket Assured, present and future. AAP2022 Planning and VNFCNF badging Requirements for ONAP.pdf
- For the CNF workload, there could be three different certifications - (1) Compliance with Cloud Native best practices. (2) Compliance with Anuket infra (3) Compliance with ONAP orchestration (or EMCO, Nephio)
- It is up to the ONAP community to determine the best practices, requirements and test cases for the certification
- Lukasz Rajewski presented the current set of best practices for designing and packaging CNFs for ONAP orchestration. These could be turned into requirements, and test cases.
- We need to have a discussion in the ONAP community on how to create the tests and how it will be resourced. We will follow up with the Anuke Assured team in a couple of weeks.

Nephio/ONAP/EMCO integration
What did we learn at the Nephio summit?
- Not attempting to compete with ONAP
- Focusing on Infra, K8S and workload, as well as configuration
- It is clear that Google is not in favor of Helm charts. They try to push the KPT packaging.
- TSC and four SIGs were formed. SIG1 (Architecture) is expected to be led by a service provider.
- Blog post by Aarna with some details - https://www.aarnanetworks.com/post/what-is-the-linux-foundation-nephio-project
- Where is this discussion going to continue? TSC according to Google.
- XGVela
- Started using OKD
- Topology management will be in the first release. Configuration is a stretch goal.
- Seshu Kumar Mudiganti is working on a PoC integrating ONAP and XGVela. Will share a demo soon.
- Anuket Assured program
- Follow up on last week's presentation by the Anuket team - What do we want to include in the certification? Resources? - Discuss in TSC.

- Nephio summit recording are now available - https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1o_VwSifi1_Ksy5YaCixCHKjACvksztQB
- Recommended session - Day1 recording, starting at 3:06:20 (pdf slide deck starting at slide #48) (Brian Grant). The two sessions after that by Stephen and John from Google are also not bad.
- SO/EMCO integration - planned to be merged soon, hopefully during August.
- We had a short meeting due to the light agenda, and no recording because Ranny Haiby forgot to click the button.

- ONE Summit CFP is open until July 29th - https://events.linuxfoundation.org/one-summit-north-america/program/cfp/
- A great opportunity to share our experience with a broader audience.
Plans of ASD integration into ONAP, beyond the PoC phase.
- Concern about the separate flows/API endpoint for CNF orchestration using ASD.
- Need input from Ericsson about the effort to merge the flows.
- ASD PoC Update and Plans presentation slide deck, ASD-PoC-Update-Plans-2022-07-14-v3.pptx
July 21st, 2022 at 1pm UTC
- (Reminder - record the meeting)
- Follow up questions related to the ASD PoC presentation from July 14th
- Is the PoC using the service instance API? Byung-Woo Jun - not yet. Building block implemented, but no macro.Lukasz Rajewski recommends using the API for better integration with other workflows. That will enable orchestrating CNFs together with other parts of the Network Service.
- Marian Darula - There is a need to model a distributed service, which is deployed in multiple edge locations. ETSI-NSD concept is one option for that. EMCO seems to have support for a similar concept and may be an option, too.
- Byung-Woo Jun - The CNFM functionality is separated in the SO, and it may use multicloud, or call EMCO in the future. The motivation was to minimize changes on existing ONAP modules. The only difference between ASD orchestration and other orchestration flows is the interface to the "ASD repository" and "Helm Artifact Repository". CNFO does not interact with the "Image Artifact Repository", this is done directly from the K8S cluster. Parameterization is done by SO providing the overridable parameters (based on user input) to the CNFM. The CNFM uses these parameters to crate the instance level Helm chart. (Referring to slide #9 in last week's presentation ASD-PoC-Update-Plans-2022-07-14-v3.pptx
- Lukasz Rajewski - The existing orchestration macro is very close in its functionality to what was done in the ASD PoC. Recommends the ASD PoC be merged with the CNFO approach.
- Question about whether K8S API is used directly or through kubectl? currently kubectl is used.
- Lukasz Rajewski - The SO integration with EMCO was done in a different way than depicted in the ASD PoC diagram.

- (Reminder - record the meeting)
- Follow up questions related to the ASD PoC presentation from July 14th
- Alignment with Nephio, CNF-WG under CNCF, and other initiatives
- Nephio weekly meetings started:
- ASD update - The team is working on a good reference CNF.Started looking at Magma using Helm charts provided by Aarna.
- https://github.com/electrocucaracha/gw-tester - This could be an option. "Reference CNF" created by Victor Morales
- We may want to invite Victor Morales to one of our upcoming CNF Taskforce meeting, to discuss both the reference CNF and the CNF-WG which he co-chairs. Ranny Haiby will reach out to him.
August 4th, 2022 at 1pm UTC
- (Reminder - record the meeting)
- Byung-Woo Jun provided a sneak preview of proposed work for ASD considerations for NSD, where NSD may consist of ETSI VNF/CNF and ASD CNF.
- Proposed architecture keeps the ASD CNFM as a separate module, with an API that can be called by the SO CNFO.
- The ASD CNFO will not rely on multi-cloud.
- Will be presented in future meeting when the Ericsson team is ready to present. Byung-Woo Jun will add to the agenda when ready.
- The team working on CNFO may have a slightly different view - prefer having the ASD CNFM integrated inside the SO BPMN infra, not as a separate module.
