1. Overall Description:
SA5 thanks TM Forum for their LS on S5-212026 “Progressing the Multi SDO
Autonomous Network coordination” and S5-212309 “Postponement of Multi SDO
Autonomous Network inter SDO strategic meeting to 15th March”.
SA5 is currently working on Rel-17 standardization work which covers many
technical topics which are closely related to autonomous networks such as
autonomous networks levels, intent driven management, self-organizing network,
management data analytics, close loop assurance etc.
SA5 has discussed the LS and would like to provide the following feedback:
1. For the Inter SDO Planning work, we believe that we should first focus
on the alignment of following topics: - Multi-SDO collaboration
objectives - Business vision and motivations - Way of capturing
collaboration agreement
2. For the Technical co-ordination work, our opinion is the following:
- The Multi-SDO coordination should take into account of existing
available deliverables and align the standardization work across different
groups as much as possible. - The coordination work should consider the
alignment of following technical aspects: - Alignment of Autonomous
networks related concepts and definitions, e.g. - Autonomous Networks -
Intent driven interactions - Control loops - Autonomous
Networks Levels - Autonomous Domain - More to be added if needed -
Sharing related use cases - Coordination on the architectural
framework - Coordination on the key features and related multi-players
interoperable management services to be supported towards autonomous networks -
Proof of Concept to show the Multi-SDO coordination achievement
SA5 is happy to cooperate with TM Forum and other SDOs on autonomous networks,
and jointly produce a harmonized view.
2. Actions:
To TM Forum: Please take the above information into account and provide
feedback if needed. SA5 would also like TM Forum to consider to avoid the
following SA5 meeting time when planning for future Multi-SDO activities.
