The following steps link to the procedures needed to instantiate SBC SWe deployments on OpenStack using the Virtual Network Function Manager (VNFM).

1

Downloading the SBC SWe Software Package

Refer to the latest release notes for the names of the specific files to download to install the latest release. This includes:

  • .qcow2 file that contains the SBC installation software
  • Script to generate a customized Cloud Service Archive (CSAR) package file
  • Virtual Network Function Descriptor (VNFD) template file to use with the script

The CSAR file you generate will contain a customized VNFD file that defines the fundamental characteristics of your deployment based on the options you select when running the script.

2

Pre-Instantiation Requirements of OpenStack

Ensure you have prepared your OpenStack cloud environment to meet the requirements for instantiating SBC SWe nodes.

3
Creating
Create an SBC SWe Cluster

If you are deploying SBC nodes in a cluster that will be managed by

an Insight

the EMS/RAMP, use the EMS/RAMP GUI to create the cluster object. Refer to:

Also, refer to SBC SWe Configuration Management for additional information on clusters and configuration management options.

4

Instantiating SBC SWe on OpenStack using VNFM

Use VNFM to instantiate the SBC SWe nodes.

5

Modifying SBC Cluster Configuration

For clustered deployments, procedures for accessing the CLI or the SBC Configuration Manager GUI to configure the SBC nodes.
