Frankfurt Goals

In Frankfurt, we will focus on bug fixes and improving the BBS use case documentation. No new features are planned in R6.

Overview

This use case proposes using ONAP for the design, provisioning, life-cycle management and assurance of broadband services. In a first step, multi-Gigabit Internet Connectivity services based on PON (Passive Optical Network) access technology will be considered. The use case covers new scenarios, such as nomadic ONT (Optical Network Terminal) and service subscription plan changes.

BBS use case shows the extensibility of the ONAP platform in supporting the orchestration of services across different locations (e.g., Central Office, Core) and technology domains (e.g., Access, Edge) within the locations.

In a joint collaboration with BBF (Broadband Forum) members, BBS implements/tests some of the specifications defined in the architectural framework of CloudCO (Cloud Central Office), Technical Report TR-384, among others. CloudCO aims at re-architecting the broadband network using SDN and NFV technologies and a cloud-like infrastructure deployed at Central Offices.

The definition of External API capabilities supporting this use case will be performed in collaboration with TM Forum and MEF LSO.

Features delivered in Dublin (R4):

1. Establishment of a subscriber's HSIA (High Speed Internet Access) service from an ONT to the Internet drain

   1. The HSIA service is designed and deployed using ONAP's design and deployment capabilities

   2. The HSIA service activation is initiated via ONAP's External APIs and orchestrated and controlled using ONAP orchestration and control capabilities. The control capabilities leverage a 3rd party controller to implement the requested action within the technology domain/location represented by the domain specific SDN management and control function.

2. Change of location for ONT devices (Nomadic ONT devices)
   1. PNF (Re-)Registration for an ONT
      
      1. Subscriber association to an ONT via ONAP's External APIs
      2. ONT association with a expected Access UNI (PON port) when a HSIA service is created/deployed for a subscriber
      3. PNF (Re-)Registration using ONAP's PNF registration capabilities
   2. Service location modification that is detected by ONAP's analytic and initiated via the closed loop capabilities
      1. The closed loop capabilities invoke a HSIA location change service that is orchestrated and controlled using ONAP capabilities and 3rd party controllers 

Business Requirements

• Service providers need a flexible platform that integrates Broadband services using standardized APIs towards domain specific management and control systems, e.g. Access domain controller/orchestrator. 
• Equipment vendors and systems integrators benefit from well defined, standardized APIs to which they can develop products and services.
• By closely collaborating with Industry consortiums, such as BBF, the BBS use case outcomes will serve as a basis for the definition of new standard interfaces and the evaluation and refinement of existing specifications.
