Sylvia/5G SBP alignment (Aug LFN Board meeting)
- LJ Illuzzi to add Sylva to project table- completed
How do we reach out to other communities?
Add table of projects and capabilities. Find intersects with community project capabilies and 5G SBP project capabilities. Add community TSC chairs/contacts, architecture leads.
Get TAC input
What capabilities exist?
What avenues are available for outreach?
Reach out to Use Case/architect/TSCs teams. Present 5G SBP overview and benefits
messaging- hackathon-like
Leverage events more- develop a promo package

Nephio + 5GSBP
There is a workgroup (WG2) in the Nephio community discussing use of Nephio as part of O-RAN SMO. Here is their current thinking - https://docs.google.com/document/d/1U7lP60w1iAI5LWYbhYgb2PDFVxgsLvEV/edit
Once this work matures, it would probably lead to a use case under the 5G-SBPNephio SIG looking at ambient MESH, and and also to see if they can incorpate spiffe workload identity.
Next Steps for the SIG-
Define what architecture they will follow
Determine if it can provide security use case using Nephio to orchestrate security controls, meaning they can deploy the proxy. And can deploy the ambient mesh, or it can deploy on spire server and agent.
Action Item: Muddasar Ahmed to reach out to the security group for update and applicability to 5G SBP.
Nephio SIG working on ambient MESH, incorp spiffe workload identity. SIG defining what architecture they will follow.
Intent Driven Orchestration for an Autonomous 5G Network - Leads- Keguang He (China Mobile)/Praveen Kumar Kalapatapu (Infosy)
An update meeting on 09/12 was helpheld. Highlights:
ONAP REQ-1588 Introducing Generative AI Solution Based on Large Models was discussed.
Work being done with CAMARA around MaaS (Model as a Service) was discussed.
Working is being done on enhancing ONAPs UUI Module to support construction, usage, and management of Large Model applications
A request is made to verify the advantages a Telco provider (China Mobile/China Telcom/AT&T/Verizon) has over a cloud provider (Google/Microsoft/Tencent) using these (ONAP-based) approaches.
A meeting and demonstration with the ONAP community to discuss how the same API for MaaS can be used by different operators is planned for the last week in September (Sept 26). We are working to get an invite to that meeting.
Next meeting 09/26 (tentative) with ONAP. Timing is meeting is TBD
SEDIMENT/GSMA - Environmental Sensor Use Case
GSMA device security group. Suggestion to introduce this use case to that group. Muddasar Ahmedto send an email to David Maxwell - fraud and security group lead.
...
Muddasar update from 09/17- there is a IoT work group within GSMA that looks at user application and IoT. Are there collaboration opportunities between the device security group, IoT work group, and SEDIMENT?
Next Steps-
GSMA device security group will schedule Zahir presentation to the GSMA group.
In progress (Zahir)- Update SEDIMENT presentation to align with the GSMA device security group; develop Use Cases aligned with the GSMA device security group. Will need DARPA public release approval process. Meeting pending. Next meeting is early Nov and is face-to-face in the EU.
- Zahir Patni to check if November meeting as a virtual option for the November meeting.
Potential collaboration opportunities between the device security group, IoT work group, and SEDIMENT. Can we create a proposal?
HEXAeBPF to be introduced to the Aether Blueprints community for possible inclusion within that project. HEXAeBPF has 5G SBP ties; L3AF integration, as well as Nephio intergrarion are being descussed within that group.
Reference Aether Blueprints presentation from 09/03- Aether-Blueprints.pdf
Next Steps:
Cross-promotion / cross-reference.
Proposal to link Aether Blueprints on Library page.
“5G lab-in-a-box” Library entry using Aether Blueprints
Muddasar- HEXAeBPF have post quantum crypto safe implementation where they use the new standards to update the cryptographic implementation for ran and code. Are these or will these be open source, and wouldthey be interested in bringing this tothe 5G SBP.
Lab in a box
UNH is targeting integration testing
Tie into Aether Blueprints
Potential for a "Core in a Box" -can benefit 5G/6G research
Next Steps:
User Story- 5G Researcher can deploy 5G Core and 5G RAN in one day. The more scripting that can be included the less setup time needed by research team.
Licensing- as components are identified consult with LF Legal for "In a box" usage.
Marketing opportunity (Aarna and UNH)
Upcoming Meetings
Project update on Application Centric Connectivity, 1600 UTC

----- Back Burner Projects ---------
New Use Case/Collaboration Proposals:
Project L3AF uses eBPF for LSM (Linux Security Modules). There may be a potential for alignment around security; zero-trust capabilities
L3AF community member Santhosh meet briefly with Rahul Jadhav/Accuknox at eBPF Day India on 03/16. Santhosh interested in working with KuberArmor
Are there Industry vertical support templates for KubeArmor? @ron victor to followup followup
Next Steps:
- Ron to take it up with KubeArmor technical team.
- Ron to follow up on Industry vertical support templates @ron victor
Can SEDIMENT be ported to Linux to expand it capabilities to say, self-attestation.
Zahir shared that SEDIMENT can be used on Linux and uses the notion of user-defined functions so that for Linux devices, with much larger storage spaces then IoT devices, specific files can be specified to be attested to insure they have not been tampered with.
Drilling deeper it is proposed that SEDIMENT might be used to attest a Linux host before deployment. For example, when a CSP deploys Kubernetes infrastructure on Linux based platforms there is a capability where SEDIMENT can attest the host before deployment. A base-level Use Case can show the concept of using Linux to deploy different security-level SLAs
Expand to confidencial computing?
Next Steps:
Zahir flushing out the idea internally at Peraton Labs
Aether Blueprints
On 09/03 Larry Peterson gave an overview on Aether Blueprints- Aether-Blueprints.pdf
Next Steps:
- Potential to integrate into "Lab-in-a-Box" concept
Cross-promotion / cross-reference.
Proposal to link Aether Blueprints on Library page. “lab-in-a-box” use case. LJ Illuzzi reach out to Larry as a followup.
- Potential to integrate into "Lab-in-a-Box" concept
Orchestration of OAI Core and Amarisoft gNB with EMCONephio- Yogen/Vikas (Aarna Networks)
Next Steps:
Evolve to Nephio
(Yogen) New project requirements/gaps- Configure controller with default radio values such that radios have default parameters settings such that they can start radiating immediately.
Nephio using Free5GC core and working on OAI. ONE Summit demo shows Open5GS (Lincoln)
Is there collaboration opportunity with new UNH project?
Lab in a box
UNH is targeting integration testing
