Status Check / Open Questions
Diagrams: Last time we reviewed Amar's Demo overview Diagram (v1). Any Updates, feedback? Not yet. Moving forward with this diagram. Brandon to add to meeting notes.
Slicing:
Slicing being done though ONAP. The slice has been created! created. Moving into testing phase. Updates/feedback?
Sriram on Slicing. Altran integration is more of less done. Testing with a simulator. What's pending is a full integration with Kaloom. Perhaps we consider simplifying the scope. We need some help here, how do we simplify? Sveto, Sriram to synch this week on slicing. Once done, we need to make a data connection with Kaloom UPF included, then move all to the Montreal Lab. OpenShift installed. E2E testing pending. Rebaca Abot simulator to be added, getting them access to the lab.
RAN:
We are working on installing the RAN: CapGemini/Altran/FlexRAN/Radio. Once done, move to E2E testing. Note: Custom: NSSMF for 5G Core. We might have to do the same with Magma. Amar to reach out to Magma team for this. Might help shape Magma slicing architecture. CU CU/DU Images, FlexRAN, CENTOS, Baremetal.
Amar: Key Items are to install flexRAN + CG CU/DU in Kaloom lab (manually first per Hanen suggestion). Intel to install FlexRAN (Nidhi/Sam), CapGemini piece is on a container, licensing issue to work out (for RAN + Core). Hanen to talk to Intel. Key Follow Up: Get a docker Image from Utkarsh and give info to Nidhi + Sam. Probably best if they do the installation.
Radio:
GenXComm team wanting to check in and integrate. Plan: Get the radios fully configured before shipping to Montreal. Status? Timeline? Wanting to set up a VPN to the Kaloom lab. This has not been set up yet, will connect with them after we have the CapGemini piece going. Ganesh to ping Hardik today about testing and access.
Hanen in touch with Nidhi. No installation has been done yet. They have a server with FPGAs, supposed to be what is needed to run.
Can Aarna connect to the cluster/core? Yes, they have access. Will try installation and see how it goes.
