LF Anti-trust

• We will start by mentioning the project's Antitrust Policy, which you can find linked from the LF and project websites. The policy is important where multiple companies, including potential industry competitors, are participating in meetings. Please review and if you have any questions, please contact your company legal counsel. Members of the LF may contact Andrew Updegrove at the firm Gesmer Updegrove LLP, which provides legal counsel to the LF.

  • Put a meeting on the calendar for next week. (Wednesday)

• GenXcomm offering 5G RAN (RU + CU/DU)

• ORAN-SC out reach

  • ORAN/ONAP call- Service mgt and orchestration. What can be reused from there? Align use cases between ORAN/ONAP/5G SBP

  • Reference: www.o-ran.org

  • Next steps:

    • dedicate meeting time to work through alignment

    • Look at Reference arch for o-ran

    • Create wiki to look at the various use cases among communities. Martin to help lead

Workstreams

• ONAP/Magma Integration #1

  • Feb 22, 2022 -

  • Feb 8, 2022 Yogendra: Working on a Helm chart issue by splitting them up. Access gateway. Small infra changes. We'll them be taking up the Magma orchestrator. Is there any specific help from Magma needed (Suresh)? Yes, that would be a great help (orchestrator charts). Suresh and Yogendra to synch offline. Helm chart fixes will require namespace changes (the ideal path). There is also a workaround to force all namespaces to be the same. The community agrees this is not the ideal long-term solution. It was requested that the Magma community, led by Suresh (Wavelabs) work with Yogen to package the Helm charts with namespace corrections as the long-term solution. Suresh to consult with Magma community if this will lead to any conflicts with Magma namespace as it exists today.

• ONAP/Magma Topic: #2

  • Feb 22, 2022 -

  • Feb 8, 2022 Wavelabs + Rebaca making good progress (in Wavelabs lab) on integration. Before Magma 1.7 come out, we'd like to replicate this in the community labs (by cloning). If using Wavelabs for community use, need to address some issues (e.g. jumphost set up as a trusted host). Can a jumphost be set up at Kaloom and/or UNH? Hanen/Suresh/Amar looking into it. Option may be to connect the labs. Reference- UNH lab is used for 5G resources (Amar).

• 5G Radio:

  • Feb 22, 2022 What workstreams can begin now that GenXcomm is onboard?

  • Feb 8, 2022 Need to check in with GennXcom and determine RAN side of 5G SBP (CU/DU). Catherine suggestion: Bring this to the ORAN-SC community (Tracy + Martin). LF Staff to make connection.
