The SDN-C project provides a global network controller, built on the Common Controller Framework, which manages, assigns and provisions network resources. As a "global" controller, the SDN-C project is intended to run as one logical instance per enterprise, with potentially multiple geographically diverse virtual machines / docker containers to provide his availability. The project also will support the ability to invoke other local SDN controllers, including third party SDN controllers.
Scope:
- The following features are in scope for the SDN-C project for ONAP release 1:
- Enhancements to support the ONAP release 1 use cases (vCPE, VoLTE)
- Yang models, directed graphs and new adaptors needed to support use cases (details to be determined during planning phase)
- Support for third party controllers:
- Adaptor to allow DG to connect to netconf devices (netconf-lite)
- High availability (local)
- Enhancements to support the ONAP release 1 use cases (vCPE, VoLTE)
- The following features will be defined for the project backlog:
- Configuration versioning : ability to roll back the configuration
- CLI adaptor : abstraction later for CLI adaptor
- Support for third party controllers:
- Adaptors for other controller protocols
- Geo diversity
Architecture Alignment:
- How does this project fit into the rest of the ONAP Architecture?
- This project provides the global network controller used by ONAP to manage network resources
- How does this align with external standards/specifications?
- Are there dependencies with other open source projects?
- OpenDaylight
- ONAP Common Controller Framework
- How does this project fit into the rest of the ONAP Architecture?
