•Parameters for all services can be passed as one composite orderItem to External API. Then passed to SO as one ‘Create E2EServiceInstance’ request. SO can then Create the connectivity services (UNIs, Access E-LAN, Access E-Line, ENNIs …) from one parent Composite Service Specification

•Service Instance relationships would need to be maintained in A&AI to relate to the one EP-LAN.
The CCVPN E-LAN Service Use Case will impact each of the Projects listed on this page.
Options for CCVPN E-LAN Services
Service Creation
OPTION 1 (Service Decomposition in the Portal/UUI)
- This is the current implementation for CCVPN P2P services in Casablanca
- Service Decomposition happens in the Portal/UUI
- Multiple Service Orders (ideally via TMF 641 if from external BSS portal), with 1 service orderItem for each of the services that make up EP-LAN Service
- In Casablanca, the UUI made separate calls to SO, i.e., did decomposition but without Service Orders
To remove the EP-LAN Service fully would involve the Portal making multiple separate Service Orders with one orderItem, each with an action of ‘delete’ ( i.e. there is no E2E Service Instance that corresponds to the full EP-LAN Service)
Service Instance relationships would need to be maintained in A&AI to relate to the one EP-LAN
OPTION 2 (Service Decomposition in the SO)
- The Portal makes a single Service Order via TMF 641, with one service orderItem for the composite EP-LAN Service
SDC can support Composite Services creation. SO can decompose and delegate the nested Services such as Access E-Line
Depending on the chosen implementation Option (listed here), impact will be different. Listed impacts refer to Option 2 for Service Creation and Option A for Service Modification
AAI
- Support Composite Service Instances (multi-operator)
DCAE
Performance management - Stretched GOAL - POSTPONED TO R5
OOF
- TBC
SDN-C
- TBC
Modeling
- Need to support Composite Services
SDC
- Support Composite Services creation
- Must be able to model LCM operations/Interfaces and expose the modification capabilities through the Service Catalog
External API
- Implement TMF 641 for external BSS Portal (parameters passed as one composite/single orerItem)
- implement East-West cross-operator External API-External API ("patch service" for service modification)
SO
- Implement ability to "decompose" the End-to-End service (in collaboration with SDC). The same applies for the Service Change.
- Implement Service Modification API and associated workflows to interact with other projects (SDN-C, A&AI & ExtAPI)
