Stretch Goal (N/A) but if extra resources are available some changes may be made.
Note (1): YES This is still in discussion, solution depends on AAF. Will have to either the preferred option is to include AAF, but if the Jira is not implemented in time in R4, an alternate simplified solution will be adopted that excludes AAF from the U/C.Note (2): In Analysis now. Feb 14, 2019. (Feb 21) discussed in Security sub-committee, presented proposed scope for R4 wo/ AAF. AAF might provide functionality available (undocumented). Manual steps to setup certificates (wo/ AAF) workaround. With AAF could automate the TLS certificate setup.
Note (3): Most of the PNF S/W Upgrade Use Case has been descope out of R4/Dublin and pushed to R5/El Alto release. In discussion with Change Management team, nothing major in R4 can be done, but may want to update the Playbooks distribute through SDC, distribute with roll-back API. Some discussion w/ 3GPP S/W mgmt API and what has been done in Change management U/C and how to bridge the gap. NetConf support in R4 and 5G API. See the Use Case Realization call for Wed Feb 20, 2019: USE CASE REALIZATION MEETING (Notes 2019-02-20)
Unit, Functional testing, Pair-wise testing. Where should we document the test cases prior to submission and passing on to integration. 3rd party/vendor domain external controllers.
