Scope: Show "good" and "bad" slice using video client. Then potentially replace video client with phone.
Blockers/Risks-
- VM availability for Rebaca Abot, media client, media server in Montreal lab - integration issue AMFmitgated
- Rebaca software installation complete on VMs

Slicing:
09/03 Raja Mittra: Initial Registration is Done between ABot gNodeB and Altran AMF. PDU Session establishment is also Done. Will continue on UPF integration and Video Test on Monday.
Next Steps/Workflow:
- Video Server configuration
- Video Client configuration
- ABot installation and config
- Integration with Altran AMF
- Integration with Kaloom UPF - continue Monday 09/06
- UPF Integration -
- Video client / A10 Testing - potential to start
- whats next?
(08/31 Raja Mittra) ABot Installation is done we were trying to integrate with AMF and UPF. I got the details of UPF from Jaime. But waiting for the AMF details. As per the Jamie's diagram I tried integrating with AMF (10.198.7.25:38412) but on the transport layer it is sending Abort in SCTP. So Please share the relevant details for integration.
(08/25 Raja Mittra)- VMs are installed but some issue with internet access on the VMs. But Jamie has provided the solution. Will be working on it to fix the issue. Hope to have ABot installed by 08/26.
Next Steps:
- Video Server configuration
- Video Client configuration
- ABot installation and config
- Integration with Altran AMF
- Integration with Kaloom UPF
- Video client / A10
- Configuration with UPF
Yogendra: "#1. A10 FW is up and running now. Kaloom team need to share the IP details for N6 interface and other IPs belonging towards trusted and non-trusted n/w. #2. SMF and UPF connectivity debugging is ON (Jamie, Rajat, Yogen, RP) are looking into it.
...
Step 1 Testing: Video Session. N1, N2, N3 on different VLANs. Proposal: Separate call to cover details. Will also require ONAP Slice integration. Rajendra to schedule (once basics in place). Ganesh: Add to original diagram – meld into 1 picture.
8/31: Raja: But waiting for the AMF details. As per the Jamie's diagram I tried integrating with AMF (10.198.7.25:38412) but on the transport layer it is sending Abort in SCTP. So Please share the relevant details for integration.
8/31: Samir: Beyond Altran, there are several more steps to be done in just a couple weeks. We need attention on these.
RAN:
09/02 : Sveto: We have installed the master clock. It is connected with fiber to a NIC (Intel XXV710) in the same server you’re using. The management port of the clock should be reachable on 10.198.7.197. We kept the default admin user and password.
Next StepSteps?
Sam: "I've tested the new ACC100 card installed on the platform and everything is working properly. I'm running stability test with FlexRAN+ORAN-FH and will debug any issues, but we are now ready to integrate with L2. Thanks."
...
Amit: CU/DU binaries. Need to fix QR code issue. (Martin helping on this piece). Need the clock for E2E connection.
8/31: Clock installation is being finalized today (completed)
Radio:
- Kaloom shipping address provided. Radio expected to be shipped 08/24

ONE Summit (all virtual): - Louis: Have we made up any ground on our timeline? Is Sept 10th a possibility? Sveto: On the the radio side, we need to make up ground. Anything else. Plan B: Show as fancy a slicing demo as we can (still on track).
Video Capture platform options (Louis)- (Loom, Ezvid, FreeCam)
Other:
- REMINDER: "Document as you Build" approach would help expand our options
...
NExt Week: Brandon OOO. Louis to lead the call.

Status Check / Open Questions
ONE Summit Keynote Planning Call:
Seeing up a separate, stand alone call to start scoping out the keynote presentation, e.g.
How do we show the builds/CNF onboarding?
How do we show slicing? What's running on each slice?
How do we show telemetry data?
What can we do with the new radio that we couldn't do before (E2E)?
Currently proposing Friday or Monday. Interested in joining? Take the Doodle Poll here:

Yogendra: Slicing updates:# Two slices configuration is now completed in MTL cluster01 for NGC under namespace ns-ngc. Ready for integration with Kaloom's UPF.
# A10 deployment done in MTL cluster01 under namespace ngfw, pod started to comeup, some more changes required for network-attachment.
# Next Steps:
# Kaloom's UPF and NGC config update by respective teams for slice-blue and slice-red.
# Rebeca integration with NGC (respective teams to take this forward).
Yogendra shared a demo network diagram
Sam: I've tested XRAN FH with FlexRAN v21.03 on the Lenovo server at Kaloom's lab and is working properly. There is an issue with the accelerator, so I'm using SW FEC for now. I will send a replacement board to Sveto to swap out the Pomona Lake ACC board. I don't have any UL traffic to test with XRAN FH, but L1 link to FH NIC is good at this point.
We can start the L2 integration when you are ready. Thanks
Amit: Sam has updated version on server. Ready with CU/DU binaries. Making some changes and will integrate with L1. Sveto: Has Sam shipped the new FPGA? For the RU part, they were going to test and ship. Need to check in with Hardik. Brandon/Sveto to check in with Hadik from GenXcom.
