@Konrad Bańka

O-RAN Component deployment

The question is: How to deploy the red colored CNFs/VNFs of the O-RAN-Architecture?

  • CNF for O-RAN-components 

    • model of CNF - how to be configured, how many components, blueprints

    • CDS model needs to be created

    • Network-service based on several CNFs

      • CNF types

        • Near-RT-RIC

        • O-CU-UP

        • O-CU-CP

        • O-DU

For detailed discussion the following page was created:



Package

  • for Network Functions (priority)

  • for Network Service (second step)

CNFs or VNFs

  • both should be considered 

    • let's start with CNFs first

    • VNF is considered as additional option



  • no CNFs and VNFs combined in a single package

    • maybe not for rApps → 

    • VNF should take care about internal CNFs
