Hi Viswa,

 

For VoLTE use case in Amsterdam release, VNF LCM is done by SVNFM and  VF-C 
integrates with SVNFMs via drivers.  

VF-C provides VNFM driver northbound  APIs. SVNFM vendor can implement these 
interface in their drivers to integrate SVNFM with VF-C.

 

 

Best Regards,

Yan

Thanks Yang, Very informative. I just have one last query.

 

Regarding LCM, should EMS then, be introduced as S-VNFM under VF-C ? If so, are 
there any specs / docs ?

Hi Yan,

 

I have few follow-up questions based on your reply to Kedar.

*       When you term Vendor can develop their own EMS driver, what would be 
the interface mechanism between VF-C and EMS driver ? Or in other words, how 
does VF-C knows the presence of this EMS driver ?

       [A] There is no direct interface between EMS driver and  VF-C. As I 
explained in the previous email , EMS driver as a microservice, it directly 
interacted with EMS and DACE VES collector. 

For all EMS, they should be registered as external system In ESR Portal.  And 
we can get their information from A&AI.

*       How & when does VF-C instructs this EMS driver to start streaming VES 
data to DCAE VES collector ?

       [A] When EMS driver starts, it will detect the registered EMS 
information from A&AI. When find registered EMS, it will create connection and 
collect the data from EMS , when received data , it will translate data to VES 
format and then report to DCAE VES collector.

*       Does every EMS has to mandatorily provide data in VES format only ?

[A]  No, they can have their own data format, but if they want report data to 
DCAE and do some analysis, they should  do the data format conversion.

*       Does the functionalities of EMS includes only FCAPS & VES data 
translation only ? What if EMS wants to also do LCM of a VNF ?

[A]  In VoLTE use case in Amsterdam release, we only use EMS to collect FCAPS 
data. VNFM is  responsible for VNF LCM

*       Does vendor NMS also takes the same flow as EMS ?

       [A]  Currently only integrated ems

BR,

Viswa

Hi,

 

I have couple of doubts on EMS driver in VF-C.

 

1.       Is the EMS driver generic to integrate with any external vendor EMS ?

[A]  No, it’s not generic EMS driver. Vendor can implement their own EMS driver 
to integrate their EMS. 

2.       Which EMS is used to test this driver for Amsterdam release ?

        [A] In VoLTE closed-loop scenario of healing in Amsterdam release, this 
EMS driver was used to  collect  FCAPS  data from ZTE EMS.

3.       What mechanism this driver currently support to integrate itself with 
EMS ?

        [A]   This driver functions include collecting FCAPS data from EMS, 
converting data format to VES, reporting VES data to DCAE VES collector.

4.       If the answer of # 1 is no, is there any document to develop driver 
for a vendor EMS ?

        [A]  No document, as I mentioned above, vendor can implement their own 
EMS driver to integrate their EMS.

                          

Appreciate reply on these ! Thank you.

 

Regards,

KeDar
