Guilin Features
===============
ONAP Guilin focusses on:
* 5G network automation and services such as network slicing through RAN, core
and transport
* deepening O-RAN Software Community integration along with other leading SDOs
* seamless orchestration of CNFs, VNFs and PNFs
* and bringing several new ONAP Blueprint and docs updates.
5G Network Slicing
------------------
In the industry evolution toward 5G networks, Guilin expands upon the
end-to-end network slicing introduced with Frankfurt with the addition of RAN,
core, and transport through Network Slice Subnet Management Function (NSSMF)
which completes functionality with the Communication Service Management
Function (CSMF) and Network Slice Management Function (NSMF) components. In
addition to the NSSMF included in Guilin, ONAP supports an external RAN NSSMF.
Next, the RAN domain also has initial support for a simple closed control loop
and machine learning (ML) for intelligent slicing.
ONAP/O-RAN Alignment
--------------------
The release also marks greater ONAP + O-RAN Software Community harmonization by
adding support for the A1 interface (O-RAN A1-AP v1.1), adding to the existing
O1 support. ONAP can now manage multiple A1 targets with different versions and
includes a A1 Policy Management Service that interacts with the Near Real-Time
RICs policy instances and provides a transient cache for these policies.
CNF, VNF and PNF integration
----------------------------
Guilin contains a large number of new features classified into design time,
run time, and ONAP operations to optimize the self-serve control loop and
dashboard, make it easier to reuse existing models, make xNF pre-onboarding and
onboarding easier, speed up UI development, and more. For Documentation
(Usability), ONAP documentation made improvements such as setting up ONAP,
Platform Operations, Service Design and Deployment, and User Guides. Specific
to cloud native, The Service Design & Creation (SDC) project, the unified
design time tool, now supports Helm types to natively support Cloud Native
Network Functions (CNF).
Enhancements in ONAP Blueprints
-------------------------------
Other enhancements to the ONAP Blueprints includes a new Standard Defined VNF
Event Stream (VES) event for Fault Management (FM) / Performance Management
(PM) Data Collection, the first use of Machine Learning in Self-Organizing
Networks (SON), and greater support for 5G RAN Wireless Network Resource Model
(NRM) with Service Modeling and Definition and Intent Based Network supporting
intent-drive 5G slice creation. The Cross Domain and Cross Layer VPN (CC-VPN)
includes transport slicing and the MDONS (Multi-Domain Optical Network Service
) has been extended.

Project Specific Release Notes
==============================
ONAP releases are specified by a list of project artifact versions in the
project repositories and docker container image versions listed in the OOM
Helm charts.
Each project provides detailed :ref:`release notes<doc-releaserepos>`
and prepends to these if/when any updated versions the project team believes
are compatible with a major release are made available.
Documentation
=============
ONAP Guilin Release provides a set selection of documents,
see `ONAP Documentation <https://docs.onap.org/en/guilin/index.html>`_.
The `developer wiki <http://wiki.onap.org>`_ remains a good source of
information on meeting plans and notes from committees, project teams and
community events.
Security Notes
==============
Details about discovered and mitigated vulnerabilities are in
:ref:`ONAP Security <onap-osa:onap-security>`
ONAP has adopted the `CII Best Practice Badge Program <https://bestpractices.coreinfrastructure.org/en>`_.
- `Badging Requirements <https://github.com/coreinfrastructure/best-practices-badge>`_
- `Badging Status for all ONAP projects <https://bestpractices.coreinfrastructure.org/en/projects?q=onap>`_
In the Guilin release,
- 100% projects passed 90% of the CII badge
- 85% projects passed the CII badge
- 11% projects passed the CII Silver badge
Project specific details are in the :ref:`release notes<doc-releaserepos>` for
each project.
