In particular, the support for reuse and modification -of an existing TN NSSI has been developed. +developed in Guilin release. Two main features were aded in Honolulu release (REQ-456): + +1. The support for reuse and modification of an existing TN NSSI has been developed. +2. In addition, the Honolulu release also continuted to support and extend the CCVPN + use-case and in particular, the support for inter-domain connections of three or + more network domains has been introduced in Honolulu release. (CCVPN in previous + releases were only be able to connect two domains). + +Honolulu Scope and Impacted modules +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +For feature #1 mentioned above, the user should be able to "modify" a Transport Slice. +The modification operation is able to support the following three scenarios: + +a. A user may "Add" one or more new service(s)/connections link(s) to a given slice + (TN NSSI) that is already created. +b. A user may need to change or modify the maximum bandwidth attribute (i.e. the SLA + agreement) using which a given slice is created. +c. Both of the above operations. + +For feature #2 mentioned above, now in H release, we can have and support an artibrary +number of domains inter-connected to each other and we can support a cross-layer +cross-domain VPN connectivity and transport slicing for these kinds of scenarios as well. + +Impacted ONAP modules include: SO, SDN-C, CCSDK, A&AI. + +In CCSDk, a path computation engine (PCE) mechanism is introduced to support a +graph-based path computation in a multi-domain network topologies. This PCE system is +implemented as a SLI plugin to be called and used by Directed Graphs (DGs). + +For A&AI, additional attributes were introduced to the connectivity node and vpn-binding node. + +In SDN-C, additional Directed Graphs (DGs) were implemented to support the above-mentioned +two features. + +Installation Procedure +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +For Honolulu new features, the integration test environment is similar to that of the Guilin +release: an ONAP instance with Honolulu release interfacing to 3rd party transport domain +controllers should be established. + +For Transport Slicing, the installation procedure is similar to that of the E2E +Network Slicing use case. In other words, we need to bring up the required modules +including SDC, SO, A&AI, UUI and OOF. We also need to configure these modules along +with the mandatory common modules such as DMaaP. + +Functional/Integration Test Cases +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +The testing procedure is described in the following few test cases: + +- service/template design: Successful design of TN NSST and Slice Profile +- modify max-bandwidth of existing TN NSSI: Modify the maximum bandwidth of an existing TN NSSI +- modify connection links existing TN NSSI: Add new connection links to existing TN NSSI +- modify both max-bandwidth and connection links of TN NSSI: Modify both the maximum bandwidth and add new connection links to an existing TN NSSI +- three-domain network: Test create TN NSSI (or other NSI life cycle operations) on a three-domain network (i.e., need 3 ACTN PNC simulators) -In addition, the Honolulu release also continuted to support and extend the CCVPN -use-case. In particular, the support for inter-domain connections of three or more -network domains has been introduced (CCVPN in previous releases were only be able -to connect two domains). -TODO: more to be added [REQ-456] Update for Guilin Release ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -- cgit 1.2.3-korg
