Agenda

1. Test Sequence Discussion of testing and DTF presentation

Notes

https://gerrit.onap.org/r/c/dcaegen2/services/son-handler/+/130623

SON H-MS will send control loop messages in modified format for both ANR/A1 and PCI/O1.

The payload for the ANR/A1 message is new and will be processed by SDN-R / A1-PMS in SDN-R and  A1 Termination / RAN App in RAN-Sim.

The payload for PCI/O1 will be the same as Jakarta release. It will be processed by SDN-R with no code changes. The CL payload for Jakarta will not 

use the O-RAN aligned yang model values, but existing SDN-R will use netconf messages with the O-RAN aligned yang model. 

Changes in Policy:

Changes in CL Name, Policy Name etc have been committed by Jorge H

https://gerrit.onap.org/r/c/policy/models/+/130766 

• Confirmed details of Kafka message format
• A1 Terminator will own the Kafka topics and mapping to policy_id
• Assume pre-configured knowledge of existence of ANR RAN App so that it does not need to be discovered during initial bootstrap (this would require an interface between A1 Terminator and RANSim Controller which keeps a catalog of RAN Apps)
• Default timeout value of 30 seconds (configurable) for response from RAN App to A1 Term. It might take longer to have Policy processed in RAN-Sim. Can be adjusted during testing.
• Halil will send email with items agreed.

-- from 7/12 last week --

• Need configurable lookup table (Map) for
  • A1 Policy Type  :-:  Topics (req & resp)
• Need 2 topics: request and response
  • RANSIM will query A1-SIM (adapter) to request lookup table - per A1 Policy Type
  • Each message A1-Sim → RanSIM will have a requestID Key - which must be included in the reply RanSIM → A1-SIM to correlate requests & responses.
    • Default timeout 30 sec waiting for response.
• Need Near-RT-RIC ID in each message A1 Sim → RanSIM   
  • Can be ignored by RANSIM - as RANSIM acts as 1 near-RT-RIC, so 1:1:1 mapping A1-SIM :  RANSIM : nearRTRIC
• Next week will demo a real A1 Policy Type (prefer the actual use case type) with full end-to-end sequence
  • (request) curl/postman → A1(REST) → A1-SIM → kafkaAdapter → kafka broker → RANSIM(stub) 
  • (response) RANSIM(stub) → kafka broker → kafka adapter → A1-SIM → A1(REST) → curl/postman

8/9 See comments in

netconf editmsg to change nrcellrelation/isHOAllowed property has been added to the the JIRA. This is aligned with the O-RAN yang model.

RAN App output will use this format as the payload in the websocket msg.

9/8

Vishal V and Murali P are waiting for new repo to be created for ran-app. Michal J has processed CR for new repo but it has not yet been created.
Link to CR for new repo (expect it to be named https://gerrit.onap.org/r/integration/simulators/ran_app )
https://gerrit.linuxfoundation.org/infra/c/releng/info-master/+/70583

9/27

Testing: 

Vishal Varvate , murali parthasarathy k  and maybe Halil Cakal to follow up with getting access to Open WIreless Lab.
See Accessing OWL for more info

A1-Flow: A1 Schema needs to added manually to A1 Termination. This will be sent to A1-PMS during A1 Termination registration with A1-PMS.

Vishal Varvate to follow up with Halil Cakal and John Keeney (Ericsson EST) 

9/27 - Discussed demo plans.
Target 1 hour live demo presentation in October/November to present SON Use Case Kohn Release Enhancements

Plan to submit demo presentation to LFN DTF in November.
