Minutes

ONAP integration

• PSS: will be presenting the benifits of Tungsten Fabric to ONAP community later some time next
  • controller fedration
  • external connectivity - peering with BGP capable gateway routers
  • Single SDN rollout serving as both CNI and openstack networking
• we will be targeting integration aligning to use-cases
• call for any suggetions or additional benifits we should present 

DPDK upstream

• PSS - Future plans for dpdk support , not migrating contrail-dpdk upsteam
  • make sure build happens from dpdk upstream releases
• migration to DPDK 19.11
  • Juniper also working in the same direction and may be some collab is possible.
  • need to forma work plan, Not enough people from Juniper in the call for a detailed discussion.
  • Put around a process for moving to later dpdk LTS releases
  • PSS - Collaboration with community can be done with respect to dpdk migration.  ATS do not have commercial interest in vrouter-dpdk. It is just the contribution to community. 
  • Jared - They're working actively towards migration. 
  • PSS - Open for discussion for a collaborative effort. 

Tungsten Fabric Operator

• We need tungsten fabric operator for upstream project
• Juniper have their own downstream implementation, Unfortunately not enough audience.
• We need to establish a operator structure for tungsten fabric.
  Jared - May be connect with Michael regarding contrail operator.
  PSS - We cannot force Juniper. We do not know whether they want to upstream the project or not. Does it make sense for a collaboration ? That needs to be addressed. But not enough audience from Juniper.  
  Jared - Get back after having conversation with Michael.
• PSS - Upstreaming contrail-operator will be a lot of work logistically itself, with respecto removing contrail references and all..  Before any effort it put into, need to understand with Juniper has plans to upstream it.
