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.
Welcome 1st Time Attendees
Welcome all. new attendees. If you have any questions about participating in this community, please contact Louis Illuzzi (lilluzzi@linuxfoundation.org).
5G Super Blueprint Overview and Getting Started
TSC Update
Highlights from 07/08
Reviewed Technical Charter document. Almost done.
Planning and prep for an LFN induction review in September.
Next TSC Meeting Aug 5, 2024 , 7am PT/11am ET, https://zoom-lfx.platform.linuxfoundation.org/meeting/96312795073?password=f9f7ab55-a030-49ce-9b95-5b12fc4ef1cb
Meeting is open to all.
TSC self-nomination/nominations are open in perpetuity.
Outreach
How do we reach out to other communities?
What capabilities exist?
Project Updates:
Joint LFN/LF Edge Use Case- Application Centric Connectivity
Next meeting not yet on the calendar.
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-SBP
Intent Driven Orchestration for an Autonomous 5G Network - Leads- Keguang He (China Mobile)/Praveen Kumar Kalapatapu (Infosy
The June 27 meeting rescheduled to Aug 14.
Project updates are available but all emails to chinamobile.com are bouncing, unable to coordinate.
Next meeting is Aug 14, 0200 UTC (Aug 13 7pm PT, 10pm ET). Zoom: https://zoom-lfx.platform.linuxfoundation.org/meeting/99043403483?password=f0fe4fc7-d709-48c4-8dc0-d1e0dfffc3c3
SEDIMENT- 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.
Next Step- GSMA device security group will schedule Zahir presentation to the GSMA group.
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.
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
Next Steps:
Ron to take it up with KubeArmor technical team.@LJ Illuzzi send L3AF info to Ron.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
Orchestration of OAI Core and Amarisoft gNB with EMCO - 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?
Upcoming Meetings
Jul 23, 2024 LJ on PTO. Meeting to be canceled
Aug 6, 2024 Bi-weekly Projects Update meeting
Aug 14, 2024Project update on Intent Driven Orchestration for an Autonomous 5G Network, https://zoom-lfx.platform.linuxfoundation.org/meeting/99043403483?password=f0fe4fc7-d709-48c4-8dc0-d1e0dfffc3c3, 0200 UTC

----- Back Burner Projects ---------
Simplified E2E Network Slicing -Yogen (Aarna)
Simplified Slicing repo; use Aarna repo for now
Bring in OAI stack
Next Steps:
5G SBP: Orchestration of OAI Core and Amarisoft gNB with EMCO
Slice selection within Edge Site Selection and Placement use case
Any other roadmapped items?
SABRES: Slice Selection, Path Validation, Multiparty Management - Lincoln Thurlow. (USC/ICI)
Agreement with the Linux Foundation has ended
All code commited to LF repos will remain intact and continue to be updated through at least Sept2024
Open source license is BSD3
A demo on Constraint-based search is created; needs legal approval to make available
Lumen technologies will act as distributor
What existing capabiliites can be included/added to the 5G Super Blueprint Library? Constraint-based search, demo
Next Steps:
Improve algorithms for constraint based search
Path validation with a different proof algorithm to improve the performance
Inclusion into 5G SBP Library
Scope: Constraint-based search, Can be done where RAN and other resources are deployed on a 5G network. If there are any contraints, for example disk space or CPU latency, and have a placement problem, thats where SABREs shines. The demo shows constraint-based search
Legal approval is needed to release the demo
--------- Reference material below --------
Page opened for viewing- send comments to lilluzzi@linuxfoundation.org
Proposal to add a column for higher level network function associated with each entry, example; slicing, security, UPF integration, IoT (visual inspection), etc.
Marketing Plan
The goal is that each completed project get the same marketing treatment (i.e. Marketing Plan execution) where the technology is highligthed and the participants and contributing companies are recognized.
Documentation - Deliverables to the 5G SBP
From Use Case Template:
Blueprint Outputs (Suggested. Not all may apply) | check all that apply: Code repository Configuration files (e.g. Helm charts, etc.) Upstreaming to relevant projects Continuous Integration Test requirements and test results (if applicable) Documentation: Overview and Theory of Operation (i.e., what does it do?) Deployment and setup Videos demo lab setup/behind the scenes other YouTube |
Create a template for documentation collateral
Playbook-like theme
YouTube - independent of any D&TF YouTube postings, but cross-linked
