Phase I - Study
Title
- SEBA - SDN Enabled Broadband Access
Objective
- SDN-Enabled Broadband Access (SEBA) is an Exemplar Platform being built by the ONF and CORD community.
Concepts
- SEBA is a lightweight platform based on a variant of R-CORD. It supports a multitude of virtualized access technologies at the edge of the carrier network, including PON, G.Fast, and eventually DOCSIS and more. SEBA supports both residential access and wireless backhaul and is optimized such that traffic can run ‘fastpath’ straight through to the backbone without requiring VNF processing on a server.
- Is integrated with Kubernetes, prepared for use in high speed and operationalized with FCAPS and OSS Integration.
- This project intends to anticipate a big trend that is to bring the features of SDN to access broadband.
Features
- Integration with:
- VOLTHA (Virtual OLT Hardware Abstraction): An open source project to create a hardware abstraction for broadband access equipment. It supports the principle of multi-vendor, disaggregated, “any broadband access as a service” for the Central Office. VOLTHA currently provides a common, vendor agnostic, GPON control and management system, for a set of white-box and vendor-specific PON hardware devices. With the upcoming introduction of access Technology Profiles, VOLTHA will support other access technologies like EPON, NG-PON2 and G.Fast as well. On its northbound interface, VOLTHA abstracts the PON network to appear as a programmable Ethernet switch to an SDN controller. On its southbound side, VOLTHA communicates with PON hardware devices using vendor-specific protocols through OLT and ONU adapters.
- ONOS: The only SDN controller platform that supports the transition from legacy “brown field” networks to SDN “green field” networks. This enables exciting new capabilities, and disruptive deployment and operational cost points for network operators. ONOS is the only open source controller providing:
- Scalability
- High performance
- Resiliency
- Legacy device support
- Next-generation device support
- TRELLIS: Is the leading open-source SDN based, multi-purpose L2/L3 spine-leaf switching fabric for data-center (DC) networking. Leveraging the ONOS Controller, Trellis creates a non-blocking fabric for data centers using white box switching hardware and open source software. Unlike traditional networking approaches, the fabric itself does not run a control protocol (such as BGP, OSPF or RSTP). Instead, all the intelligence is moved into applications running on the clustered ONOS controller. In this way the fabric switches can be simplified, the entire fabric can be optimized by leveraging a holistic view of all activity, and new features and functionality can be deployed without upgrading the switches.
