Hi Ranny, We are checking both options that you have mentioned, and will share the updates in a few days.
1. Possibility of enhancing the RAN-Simulator used for testing the SON use case (and is part of ONAP simulators repo) to support the required functionality for testing RAN Slicing. 2. Whether the Near RT-RIC and O-CU/O-DU simulators can be provided also to other ONAP labs, under a proper non-commercial use license agreement Thanks & Regards, Swami.

Treat hyperlinks and attachments in this email with caution** Hi Swami & Lin, Thank you for proposing this initiative. The TSC allowed use of proprietary software in the past as part of PoC (see section 3.b here - https://wiki.onap.org/display/DW/POC+definition<https://apc01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwiki.onap.org%2Fdisplay%2FDW%2FPOC%2Bdefinition&data=02%7C01%7CSwaminathan.Seetharaman%40wipro.com%7Cc5048bdbf62249f82b2408d8067ec180%7C258ac4e4146a411e9dc879a9e12fd6da%7C0%7C0%7C637266488793862968&sdata=HO7w14jtVsfnRvIiXhfSE2ZPd6JsNjUEsWPzwipxLQY%3D&reserved=0>). Since the 5G network slicing is an official use case and not a PoC, could you please clarify: * Could you confirm that the proprietary CU/DU will not be a mandatory part of ONAP integration, and any interested party could run the Guilin integration testing without the need for these components? * Alternatively, if other community members will be interested in using these components, could they be made available to additional labs, other than the ones you mentioned (under a proper non-commercial use license agreement)? Thanks, Ranny.

From the overall use case and also ONAP perspective, we strongly believe that it would certainly add significant value to integrate with O-RAN components/simulators and show its working, and it will also help in the O-RAN alignment journey going forward. While they are checking reg. the feasibility and IPR aspects, we have taken an action to check with TSC reg. the feasibility and any process/IPR/legal obligations. Pl. provide your views, and kindly advise us on the next steps. If needed, we can provide clarifications in one of the upcoming TSC calls. Thanks & Regards, Swami & Lin.
