3rd OSM Hackfest

Overview

ETSI's Centre for Testing and Interoperability and the OSM community organized the 3rd OSM Hackfest on 25-29 June 2018.

The event was hosted by Telenor in Oslo, during the OSM Mid Release 5 meeting and offered a great opportunity to share and learn with OSM developers and module leaders, while getting hands-on experience with OSM Release FOUR

Participation to OSM Hackfests is free and open to all.

Venue

Telenor ASA

Building: "The Hub", Room: Budapest

Snarøyveien 30, N-1360 Fornebu, Norway

Scope

The goal of this OSM Hackfest is to exercise all the main functionalities provided by OSM Release FOUR from basic operations (installation, setup, common operations, etc.) to most advanced activities, with a big focus on VNF on-boarding activities, covering Day 0/1/2 operations.

Objectives

• Install OSM and run some examples
• Get familiar with OSM's GUI and CLI
• Create your own VNF and NS descriptors and build packages
• Understand how to deploy NS/VNF with EPA
• Learn how to add dynamic LCM with Day-1 and Day-2 actions with charms
• Basic troubleshooting

Who should attend

• VNF vendors, who want to onboard their VNF in OSM following best practices
• System Integrators, who want to get used with OSM
• Service providers, who want to get first hand operational experience with OSM
• Academia and Universities, who are considering OSM as platform for their research activities in networking

Prerequisites

• Sits are limited: book yours!
• Laptop / VM in laptop
  • Linux installed (preferred, Ubuntu 16.04)
  • RECOMMENDED: 2 CPUs, 8 GB RAM, 20GB disk
• User-level knowledge of Linux
• Familiarity with NFV and SDN concepts
• For optimal use of session 1 installation and first use it is highly recommended that you download and install the OSM Rel FOUR (4.0.1) vagrant image (including virtualbox and vagrant) prior to the hackfest.
