Deploy CPS

To install CPS only, run the following command from within the oom/kubernetes/cps folder

Code Block
languagebash
titleInstall CPS using Helm
cd <your git repo>/oom/kubernetes/cps
helm upgrade dev1 local/cps -i -f values.yaml --set global.masterPassword=mysecr

Once you chart is deployed, we can test it by hitting the spring actuator endpoint from a pod:

Code Block
languagebash
titleTest CPS is alive
kubectl run -it network-multitool-$USER --image=praqma/network-multitool --restart=Never --rm -- bash

curl -X GET "http://cps:8080/manage/health" -H "accept: application/json" -H "Content-Type: application/json"

Note. This was tested on windows using WSL2 with Ubuntu 20.04 but any similar environment should suffice.

...

Depending on you requirements there are several ways to setup CPS and Its dependencies:

  1. Local Setup Using Docker
  2. Local Setup Using CSIT
  3. CPS Setup Using Minikube
  4. SDNC, RAN-sim controller and Honeycomb

...

SDNC setup

To setup SDNC, firstly download these 2 files:

  1. certs.tar
  2. docker-compose.yml

Unzip certs.tar to the same folder as where you put the downloaded, docker-compose.yml file.

From the same folder as above, run the following command to setup SDNC.

Code Block
languagebash
titleDocker command
docker-compose up -d

SDNC should be up, when this command has ran successfully. 

RAN-sim controller setup

To set up RAN-sim controller follow the steps provided in this page RAN-Sim setup or use the steps below.

...

Pull the pre-built docker image using the command 

Code Block
languagebash
titleDocker pull command for ransim controller
docker pull docker.io/shsubedi/ransimcontroller:v1

Use the following command to tag the image

Code Block
languagebash
titleDocker tag command
docker tag shsubedi/ransimcontroller:v1 onap/ransim:1.0.0-SNAPSHOT

...

Modify the docker-compose.yml file, update the SDNR_IP and SDNR_PORT
To get the SDNR_IP, run the following command

Code Block
languagebash
titleInspect SDNC ip
docker inspect -f '{{range.NetworkSettings.Networks}}{{.IPAddress}}{{end}}' <SDNC_CONTAINER_ID>

...

Honeycomb simulator setup

To set up the Honeycomb simulator, follow the steps below or the steps in this page Core & RAN Simulators.

Pull the custom honeycomb docker image using the command

Code Block
languagebash
titleDocker pull command
docker pull docker.io/tragait/gnbsim:v1

...

Update ransim and honeycom IP address at '<YOUR_DIRECTORY>/ran-sim/hcsim-content/gnbsim/hc/config/gnbsim.json'
Make sure the following are updated to.
To get the ransimIp and hcIp do the following:

Code Block
languagebash
titleInspect ransim ip
docker inspect -f '{{range.NetworkSettings.Networks}}{{.IPAddress}}{{end}}' <ransim_CONTAINER_ID>
  • "ransimIp": <ransimIP>
  • "ransimPort": 8081
  • "hcIp": <ransimIP>
  • "hcPort": 2831

...

  • image: tragait/gnbsim:v1

Run the below command from '<YOUR_DIRECTORY>/ran-sim/hcsim-content/gnbsim/hc' directory

Code Block
languagebash
titleDocker compose up command
docker-compose up -d

...

Code Block
languagebash
titleInspect hc ip
docker inspect -f '{{range.NetworkSettings.Networks}}{{.IPAddress}}{{end}}' <hc_CONTAINER_ID>

Make sure to modify the below curl command, replace HC_SIM_IP with the ip retrieved from previous command.
Note. If using WSL 2  then the HC_SIM_IP in the below curl command can be replaced with ip address got from doing : 

wsl hostname -I in the windows powershell. 

Code Block
languagebash
titleHC sim mount command
curl -i -X PUT http://localhost:8282/restconf/config/network-topology:network-topology/topology/topology-netconf/node/hc -k -H 'Accept: application/xml' -H 'Content-Type: text/xml' --user "admin":"Kp8bJ4SXszM0WXlhak3eHlcse2gAw84vaoGGmJvUy2U"  -d '<node xmlns="urn:TBD:params:xml:ns:yang:network-topology"> <node-id>hc</node-id> <host xmlns="urn:opendaylight:netconf-node-topology">HC_SIM_IP</host>  <port xmlns="urn:opendaylight:netconf-node-topology">2831</port>  <username xmlns="urn:opendaylight:netconf-node-topology">admin</username>  <password xmlns="urn:opendaylight:netconf-node-topology">admin</password>  <tcp-only xmlns="urn:opendaylight:netconf-node-topology">false</tcp-only>  <!-- non-mandatory fields with default values, you can safely remove these if you do not wish to override any of these values-->  <reconnect-on-changed-schema xmlns="urn:opendaylight:netconf-node-topology">false</reconnect-on-changed-schema>  <connection-timeout-millis xmlns="urn:opendaylight:netconf-node-topology">20000</connection-timeout-millis>  <max-connection-attempts xmlns="urn:opendaylight:netconf-node-topology">0</max-connection-attempts>  <between-attempts-timeout-millis xmlns="urn:opendaylight:netconf-node-topology">2000</between-attempts-timeout-millis>  <sleep-factor xmlns="urn:opendaylight:netconf-node-topology">1.5</sleep-factor>  <!-- keepalive-delay set to 0 turns off keepalives-->  <keepalive-delay xmlns="urn:opendaylight:netconf-node-topology">120</keepalive-delay></node>'

...

Once the above steps have been completed, check if the honeycomb simulator has been mounted in SDNC by going to the following link and clicking on the Mounted Resources section:
 http://localhost:8282/apidoc/explorer/index.html
Note. If using WSL 2 then the localhost can be replaced with ip address got from doing :
wsl hostname -I in the windows powershell.
