What is free5gmano?

This is a 5G MANO (Management and Network Orchestration) project developed that refer to 3GPP TS 28.531, TS 28.532 Release 15 (R15). The purpose is to achieve the management and scheduling of 5G network slices. Please refer to Features for the functions of release. This project is collaborating with free5GC.org. Hence, it can provide as a MANO platform for deploying network slice subnet instances (NSSIs) of free5GC VNFs.

Currently, the major contributors of this project are Department of Computer Science and Information Engineering (Dept. of CSIE) and Center of Infomormation Technology Innovation Services (CITIS), National Taichung University of Science and Technology (NTCUST)

Architecture

It's refer to ETSI GS NFV-MAN 001 V1.1.1

Features

  • AllocationNssi API is implemented in Network Slice Subnet Management Function that refer to 3GPP TS 28.531 (R15). It can create a Network Slice Subnet Instance (NSSI) by calling os-ma-nfvo interface, which is the basis of network slicing.
  • A Service Mapping Plugin framework is designed to deploy the Network Slice Subnet Instance (NSSI) via os-ma-nfvo APIs and provide the selection of the open source NFV Orchestrators, e.g. Kubernetes-based Kube5gnfvo (default), OpenStack-based Tacker etc.
  • Network Slice Subnet Template can assist users to provide ETSI MANO NFVO required information, e.g. VNF Package, Network Service Descriptor

Dependencies

The following packages are required:

  • git
  • python3
  • pip3
  • mysql
  • NFV-MANO
  • Kafka
