PnP DUBLIN WORK ITEM | DESCRIPTION | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
SO1: SO support of A&AI creation | [SO] A&AI UI can create an inactive PNF (inactive) A&AI entry. In Step #19A instead of EXITING, SO would go into WAIT STATE pending rehydration of RLF w/ pnfReady DEVELOPMENT STATUS:
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| SO2: Service & NF Instance Association | Associating a xNF to a Service. Seen in the VID UI, after instantiation waiting for registration see only a Service instance, and beyond that a PNF resource instance associated with it. DEVELOPMENT STATUS: | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
SO3: SO support for already existing PNF A&AI entries | [SO] Support of SO for an already existing PNF (active) A&AI Entry (use case with a deleted & recreated service or instantiating 2nd service using the same PNF) DEVELOPMENT STATUS: In ONAP/Casablanca this was updated, and irrespective of AAI entry existence for a PNF instance, the workflow execution always waits to receive a PNF registration event.
This is not planned to be changed in ONAP/Dublin release. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| FUTURE (El Alto) | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
SO-future: Controller Association [FUTURE MOVED TO EL ALTO] | [SDC/SO] The PNF controller caused quite a stir in Casablanca, the tension between Design/Platform Model vs Run-Time/Deployment Model. As a result the SO controller design was sub-optimal and should be addressed in Dublin. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| SO4: SO to support updated A&AI PNF schema | [SO] Support of SO for updated AAI PNF instance model. Added March 13th 2019 → AAI team got a recommendation from architecutre committee to defer this item to ONAP/El Alto release. ASSOCIATED DEVELOPMENT: See task A&AI1 and PRH1.

AAF SECURITY IMPACTS
PnP DUBLIN WORK ITEM | DESCRIPTION | ||||||||||
AAF1: Security Enhancement | [AAF] Security enhancements slated for Dublin will need to be working for PnP Use Case. Discussing with DCAE about supporting TLS authentication just with Certificate without Username & Password. If the NF already uses the UN&P for the HTTP connection (that should still work). Certificate use should be working in Dublin to setup the HTTPS connection. PROPOSAL: Thus, both Certificate & Username & Password will be supported. (This is suggested for backward compatibility). i.e. there are already existing deployment. PROPOSAL: It is recommended to use the Certificate. Certificates as part of the authorization? Subject of the certificate is something that can be used as authorization, the proposal to DCAE is that there is a list of authorized users/subjects. Initially it could be manually configured, but the objective is that this would come from AAF. Start with Certificates local check: subjects against a list (w/ wildcards). Agree w/ appropriate interface w/ AAF then integrate w/ AAF. If identity not found use basic authentication a second check w/ username & password. otherwise access is rejected (HTTP return code).

| PRH3: PNF Registration Update the A&AI Entry | When the PNF registers, PRH should update the A&AI entry with the information in the VES event. PRH shall update A&AI with all fields from pnfRegistration VES event into all corresponding fields of A&AI entry. See the 5G - PNF Plug and Play wiki DEVELOPMENT STATUS:

| PRH4: PRH Re-Registration Support | PRH support for the Re-Registration Use Case in PNF PnP (for BBS Nomadic ONT PNF Re-registration Use Case). Which fields to compare in mapping field to determine a reregistration PNF. DEVELOPMENT STATUS:
API CHANGE: New field for event publishing on pnfReady topic & pnfUpdate topic enhanced with additional fields as received in pnfRegistration event (a 1-to-1 copy). Was reviewed & agreed with BBS U/C team and change made in code (continuous integration system). Mar 14, 2019 | ||||||||||

| PRH1: A&AI New PNF Schema Adaptation | New A&AI schema adaptations: 5G - PNF Plug and Play (Casablanca carry-over items) found a discrepancy between PNFs and VNFs; VNFs are identified via VNF-ID (UUID), and PNFs - via PNF-name. PNF-id = UUID; PNF-name = Correlation ID. PRH use search API to find PNF instance based on PNF-name then get the PNF-id. pnfRegistration VES Event to get the Key to search A&AI. use "sourcename" (part of VES Common header). Take value of sourcename search A&AI to find a PNF entry. Added March 13th 2019 → AAI team got a recommendation from architecutre committee to defer this item to ONAP/El Alto release. ASSOCIATED DEVELOPMENT: See task A&AI1 and SO4.
