Your local time

Agenda:

1. Roll call
2. Tianran will introduce current status and researches on MOVIE project for the VIM NBI.
3. Yali Zhang will introduce the policy abstraction work in OpenStack. The bp was approved and the code was upstreamed for review. Yali will introduce the design, concept, and will give a demo to show how to operate. She would also like to collect feedback from the OPNFV community for the code revision.
4. AOB

bp： https://review.openstack.org/#/c/168539

code： https://review.openstack.org/#/c/195074/

Minute:

• Tianran introduced the current study on the intent based VIM NBI
  1. Architecture requirement for the generic VIM NBI layer.
  2. Intent based VIM NBI core model abstractions.
  3. Difference between the concept of intent and policy.
  4. How the intent based VIM NBI can be mapped to existing OpenStack projects.
  5. The presentation slide is: opnfv-movie-meeting150805-scope_and_model.pdf
  6. Clear Peter's question on the scope of the MOVIE. The generic VIM NBI layer should not just for inent based NBIs, but can be used for a general MDA platform. So that many exisiting OPNFV project can insert the NBI models. However, a more interesting research in on the intent NBI part, which is unique in MOVIE.
• Peter Lee introduced the very interesting tool YANGForge with a live demo
  1. YANGForge enables the MDA approach by converting YANG schema into real NBIs.
  2. It's acturally a tool chain with many related fuctions.
  3. Was suggested to play a close loop demo to show how this tool can be finially used by OpenStack and ODL.
  4. Hopefully that MOVIE could use this tool in the generic VIM NBI layer.
  5. Will send more questions to Peter offline.

Your local time

Agenda:

1. Roll call
2. Kevin Luehrs from cablelabs is going to introduce the proposal Connectivity Services LSO. We are going to discuss and explore how MOVIE and the ‘Connectivity Services LSO’ project relate to each other
3. Susan Hares will report the schedule for the potential bar bof on intent based network modeling in IETF. Then we will discuss the problem statement, framework and so on.
4. Report on Openstack Summit
   • Presentation on "Customize Openstack for Telco NFV"
   • Policy BP in Congress design summit
5. AOB

Minute:

1. The intent based network modeling (IBNEMO) bar bof on IETF is going to happen on monday and thursday to meeting time slot of various people. Sue also introduced the agenda and the initial presentation.
2. Kevin presented the new project. We have a good discussion and conclude that this kind of NBI is technique specific for metro ethernet. The movie project will provide a higher level abstraction and will provide a generic NBI platform so that many technique specific interfaces can be plugged in as well as their corresponding adaptions.

Your local time

Agenda:

1. Roll call
2. Susan Hares will report a set of use cases that will be applied in the MOVIE project.
3. Report on Openstack Summit
   • Presentation on "Customize Openstack for Telco NFV"
   • Policy BP in Congress design summit
4. Go through gap analysis
5. AOB

Minute:

Slides: hares-opnfv-movie-usecases.pdf

1. The Movie discussion examined how use cases leaders described by the following organizations associated with ETSI
   • Network Provider: Telefonica, CableLabs,
   • Application Vendors: Oracle, HP,
   • Network Platform Vendors: Plexxi, Juniper, Ciena
   • Japanese: Fujitsu, NEC
2. Can be expressed by the following use cases:
   • Virtual WANs or VPN (L2 VPN or L3 VPN )
   • DC networks
   • Bandwidth on Demand
   • Service Chaining
   • Mobile Phone connections (not in slides)
   • B to B (not in slides)

Based on the feedback Sue Hares received, for our next meeting. she will write-up the uses cases and indicate what problems these show. Movie members suggested these cases case be presented in write-up and in power-point. In another document, she will summarize and expand on the problems these use cases show.

Your local time

Agenda:

1. Roll call
2. Yali will introduce a blueprint to be discussed on OpenStack Congress design summit. It's about the policy interface abstraction.
3. Go through gap analysis
4. AOB

Minute:

• On the meeting Yali introduced the blueprint to be discussed on the OpenStack Congress design summit. The material is attached as follows:
• congress_blueprint.pptx
• As we have discussed the gap of congress, this contribution might be part of the movie project.

Your local time

Agenda:

1. Roll call
2. Peter will introduce Stormforge and promise
3. Go through gap analysis
4. AOB

Minute:

1. Tianran presented the movie project goal and the proposed movie project architecture
   • Two parts of work to do: the higher level mano service oriented model abstraction and the general VIM NBI framework.
2. Due to the confict with some meeting, suggest to have a biweekly meeting on Wednesday 1am UTC;
3. Peter introduced the Stormforge project
   • Provide multi-views of NBI for different user/app, which enables the NBI customization.
   • Provide tools for YANG to interface automation
   • "Controller" in the stormforge framework equals to the adapter of SB and NB, which contains the translation logic.
   • Showed many YANG models developed in stormforge
   • It's not written in python, so it's hard to contribute to OpenStack.
4. Adjourned

Your local time

Agenda:

1. Roll call
2. Confirm committers and contributors
3. Confirm the time slot of project meetings
4. Project plan and scope
   • OPNFV requirements and gap analysis
   • Use cases and higher level abstractions
   • OpenStack BP
   • ETSI proposal
   • OPNFV summit demo
5. AOB

Minute:

1. Kick off the movie project.
2. Need to appoint member for gap analysis of dedicated projects in OPNFV. We also need to track OpenStack.
   • Parviz would like to check Copper and ETSI.
3. Talked about the general NBI architecture. Suggested to refer MD-SAL in ODL and Stormforge.
   • Will invited Peter Lee to give an introduction on Stormforge.
4. Should start from specific uses cases, and analyze the process and interface requirements step by step.
