Radio Access Network Topology:
Slicing Network Topology:
ONAP Architecture for RAN Management:
Note: The ONAP architecture diagram below will be aligned with the ONAP architecture diagram for R2, when available.
Users and Benefits:
This ONAP use case enables automated lifecycle management of large scale disaggregated 5G radio access networks and E2E network slices. It also enables the deployment and life cycle management of hybrid 5G networks (a combination of PNFs and VNFs)
Project Impact:
This is a significantly broad use case and will impact all major modules of ONAP. List of enhancements in each module will have to be identified over the next several weeks.
Work Commitment:
AT&T may provide development resources but would like to collaborate with other ONAP members to fully realize this use case.
