Overview
The Open Networking Summit - EU 2019 event offers two "un-conference" areas for topic discussions, small-team breakouts etc. We call this an "Unconference" because it's less about pre-conceived and pre-arranged formal presentations and instead allows for discussion topics of interest to "spring up" either closer to the event or at the event itself.
...
The current Un-conference Schedule can be found here: https://wiki.lfnetworking.org/x/UgMiAQ
Rooms are booked on a first-come, first-serve basis
If you wish to add a topic to the schedule, please post it below.
Unconference Rooms are located at Flanders Convention Center: Gorilla 4 Gorilla 5

Short Description: Test frameworks and tools for CNTT
- Detailed Description: This is continuation of discussion started in CNTT F2F meeting in Paris on OPNFV test framework strategy for CNTT reference implementations and compliance program.
- See related thread and this point made by Georg Kunz... we need a structured way of integrating, maintaining and running specific test cases across test tools. It must be simple to call specific test cases across all OPNFV test tools. This means that ideally the OPNFV test tools agree on a common way to do this. Potential ways:
- All tools integrate in Xtesting
- All tools agree on a common API callable from some other tool
- Something else?

Short Description: Discuss automation requirements for MEC during the whole life cycle of MEC application.
- Detailed Description: In this session ,i will introduce the whole MEC system with 5G Core. Typically there will be a lot of facilities around MEC system. For instance, local DNS system, hardware or software firewall(if traffic from internet into MEC system , FW is needed). When application is on boarding in MEC system, openstack or kubernetes will allocate virtual machine and container for applicaiton automatically. But the application can't supply the service right now.
Automation requirements for MEC to speed up the service provision procedure:
1. Set UPF rule automatically(traffic steering)
2. Set FW rule automatically(traffic rule)
3. Set DNS record automatically (DNS resolving)
4. others... - Topic Leader: Jia Xuan (jiaxuan@chinamobile.com)

Short Description: A Look at OPX Architecture and Latest Release
- Detailed Description: Open Switch is a project dedicated to making a solid Open Source option for a complete Network platform supporting the community and providing networking innovations. There is a focus on making a completely open source NOS providing a solid (Linux Based Package approach) allowing the installation of Open Switch on a Debian based platforms. In this demo/workshop we will go through the architecture and highlight multiple applications build with OPX, look at the latest release of OPX, and provide an opportunity to interact with OPX via VM. Come learn how you can integrate your white-box NOS solution with your upstream applications with ONAP, ODL etc..

Short Description: CNTT and CNCF TUG Common API Framework
- Detailed Description: In this session, I would like to invite people from the CNTT group and CNCF TUG group to come together to work on a Common API Framework so that we can have a common North and southbound APIs for both VNF/CNF vendors/users and NFVI vendors/users. The intent of this session will be have an open discussion to drive a consensus so that we can align on the API framework that would work for both VNFs as well CNFs (cloud native) so that we can implement the reference architecture as specified by CNTT group. This should allow the transition of VNFs to CNFs smooth. Additionally, this will help build validation framework that works for all types of workloads.

Short Description: ONAP as a unified MEC-in-NFV Orchestrator
Detailed Description: In the latest ETSI MEC architecture specification, there is a generic reference architecture and a MEC-in-NFV variant. We would like to discuss the MEC-in-NFV variant and the possibility of ONAP serving as the combined orchestrator (NFVO MEAO). Also, given the rich functionality of various ONAP controllers, we would like to discuss how ONAP could possibly interface with both external MEPM-V components or alternatively subsume this functionality within ONAP. This is quite similar to how ONAP deals with VNFMs — they can be external or internal. There is no pre-planned agenda, and we would like to have an open discussion on this topic.

Short Description: An introduction of open source network project Mizar and further discussion
- Detailed Description: In this session, we would like to introduce our new open source network project Mizar, an eBPF and Geneve protocol based cloud network data plane that can scale to manage the communication and routing of hundreds of thousands of dynamic network end points among VPCs and subnets. The goal of this project is to address the following current cloud related challenges:
- Unify the network data-plane for containers, serverless functions, virtual machines, etc.
- Support provisioning and management of large number of endpoints
- Accelerate network resource provisioning for dynamic cloud environment
- Achieve high network throughput and low latency
-Create an extensible cloud-network of pluggable network functions
This session starts with a brief introduction and follows with an open discussion for suggestions of our project. - Topic Leader: Yin Ding ,Ying Xiong(ying.xiong@futurewei.com)
- Estimated Audience Size (1-15):
- Interested In Attending: If you are interested in this discussion and would like to participate in it, please add your name and email here (one name/email per line please). We'll use this information when building the schedule so that we minimize overbooking people where possible.
