This activity was initiated from a contribution proposal by Intel to setup a test-bed to install and characterize a Kubernetes bare-metal deployment based on a published Intel Kubernetes "networking reference". The linked document is from work done by Intel to help address Telco Cloud Native networking requirements using bare-metal Kubernetes. The proposal suggests leveraging OPNFV community lab resources and working with the OPNFV CIRV project. This is intended as a hands-on and iterative activity open to all for CNTT participants learning together to learn and collaborating with CNCF and other upstream communities.collaborate with CNF Test-bed and relevant upstream communities (CNCF, etc.).

Objectives
Install, configure and test Install and configure a bare-metal Kubernetes environment with components and features aligned with RA-2 to help identify gaps and requirements ultimately improving to accelerate and improve CNTT Cloud Native specifications. Through this exercise activity we will expect to learn more about
- Lab requirements
- Installer requirements (Provision nodes and install K8s with relevant features configured)
- Help identify RI-2 requirements for installation, configuration and testing
Test deployments with various configurations and features
...
about RI-2 requirements for installation, configuration and testing to inform ...
- Lab requirements for deploying and testing RI-2
- Installer requirements for provisioning nodes, installing Kubernetes with required features and their configuration
- Test methods, tools and test-cases to validate RI-2 (adopt and adapt from RI-1/RC-1 and upstream communities wherever possible
...
- )
- Test
...
- methods, tools and test-cases that
...
- delineate commercially significant conformance criteria for evaluating vendor infrastructure solutions i.e. requirements for RC-2
- Selection of hardware skus/platforms
...
- that can fulfill Reference Model defined hardware profiles
...
- (to demonstrate commercial feasibility of hardware profiles
...
- and metric derfinitions)
