This document outlines the steps to deploy SDN-Enabled Broadband Access (SEBA) . REC was designed from the ground up to be a highly available, flexible, and cost-efficient system for the use and support of Cloud RAN and 5G networks. The production deployment of Radio Edge Cloud for Telco Appliance. With the exception of the installation of the SEBA application components (VOLTHA, NEM, ONOS), the installation process follows that of REC (REC Installation Guide). The production deployment of SEBA is intended to be done using the Akraino Regional Controller which has been significantly enhanced during the Akraino Release 1 timeframe, but, for evaluation purposes, it is possible to deploy REC SEBA without the Regional Controller.
In a Regional Controller based deployment, the Regional Controller API will be used to upload the SEBA Blueprint YAML REC Blueprint YAML (available from the SEBA repository REC repository) which informs the Regional Controller of where to obtain the REC SEBA ISO images, the SEBA workflows REC workflows (executable code for creating, modifying and deleting REC SEBA sites) and the REC SEBA remote installer component (a container image which will be instantiated by the create workflow and which will then invoke the REC SEBA Deployer (which is located in the ISO DVD disc image file) which conducts the rest of the installation.
The instructions below skip most of this and directly invoke the REC SEBA Deployer from the BMC, iLO or iDRAC of a physical server. The basic workflow of the REC SEBA deployer is to copy a base image to the first controller in the cluster and then read the contents of a configuration file (typically called user_config.yaml) to deploy the base OS and all additional software to the rest of the nodes in the cluster.
