Project Description
Network management is very important for cloud and Edge. CNF(cloud-native network function) is next-generation VNF. CNF will be supported in Edge computing in the future. It is very important specially in 5G network. A cloud-native 5G network provides the completely digitized platform necessary to deploy new cloud services and to take advantage of cloud-native 5G benefits like massive IoT, edge computing, and network slicing. Cloud Native Network Functions will ultimately help operators pivot from Non-standlone (NSA) 5G architecture which depends on a 4G core network to operate, to standalone (SA) 5G. Standalone 5G pairs 5G radios with a cloud-native 5G core network. We would like to build a demo network based on K8S.
Goal for this Hackweek
- prepare environment for CNF demo
- build K8s cloud
- build a demo of the CNF
- Change source code and document

This looks an interesting POC from RedHat https://www.redhat.com/architect/autoscale-5g-core, and they shared the knowledge as well https://github.com/fenar/cnvopen5gcore/tree/Release-1.0 . It's based on open5gs (https://github.com/open5gs/open5gs) for the 5G CNF, Istio for service mesh and UERANSIM for 5G UE and RAN simulator. Although it's applied and configured to run on RedHat Openshift I think it will be cool to have something like this on Rancher as well.

For network stack, here is the reference. For performance of network, SRIOV, DPDK should be used. For vswitch, VPP has much better performance then OVS. https://ligato.io/blog/cnf-ligato-fdio/ https://cloud.redhat.com/blog/building-cnf-applications-with-openshift-pipelines
