Abstract:
Network disaggregation is gaining momentum in the industry for enabling flexibility and choice for network operators. A key challenge is operations and management in multi-vendor environments. SDN architectures are becoming popular for this task. A key prerequisite are well defined and standardized interfaces between network elements/layer and multi-vendor/domain SDN controllers/orchestrators. This paper describes recent progress in ONF core information model definition, its implementation, network architecture integration and related multi-vendor interoperability tests.
