This wiki will describe the desired target architecture for designing and creating generic control loops.

ONAP Platform Configuration - Day 0

Assumption: Install Openstack onto your VM and then installed ONAP via OOM or Heat

1. Setup A&AI with the following information that describes your network. Use curl and/or ESR to do this work. Q: Should this be done via SDC?
   1. Cloud regions
   2. Zones (optional)
   3. Complex (optional)
   4. Service Type(s)

ONAP Platform Service Design

1. Use SDC to build vendor software product
2. Use SDC to build the service using vendor software product(s)
3. If using APPC as controller, then goto APPC CDT to build VNF Templates
   1. Uses VNF Type and Template Identifier that is generated by SDC
   2. Can specify user parameters for performing an Operation
4. Use CLAMP to build the control loop for the service
5. Use SDC to distribute the models

ONAP Platform Onboard a Customer

1. Use A&AI to onboard customer(s)

ONAP Platform - Instantiate Service

1. Use VID to instantiate the Service Instance for the Customer
   1. Service Instance → creates ServiceID
2. Use Postman or ODL GUI (slow to initialize) to pre-load SDNC using ServiceID
   1. Set the vnf-name (SDNC) - but VID names this the vf-module-name
      1. ISSUE: This vnf-name has to be known to control loop applications somehow
3. Use VID to do the following
   
   1. VNF Instance → creates VNFID
   2. VF Modules
