OmniRAN EC SG Status and Outlook • OmniRAN PAR proposal on IEEE 802.1CF Recommended Practice: ‘Network Reference Model and Functional Description of IEEE 802 Access Network’ was approved by IEEE 802 EC on November 15th, 2013 • https://mentor.ieee.org/omniran/dcn/13/omniran-13-0096-00-ecsg-approved-par-clean.pdf • The PAR is on the NesCom agenda for approval on March 26th, 2014 • IEEE 802.1CF project starts after NesCom approval • OmniRAN EC SG was extended in November 2013 until March 2014 to take care of the PAR approval by NesCom. • OmniRAN EC SG will ask for another extension in the EC closing plenary, just for the case that NesCom asks for additional input. • A Study Group is disbanded upon approval of the PAR by the IEEE-SA Standards Board.
OmniRAN after the approval of the P802.1CF PAR • IEEE 802.1 decided to establish an ‘OmniRAN TG’ for the P802.1CF project. • To facilitate close cooperation with the other IEEE 802 WGs, the OmniRAN TG will • continue with the OmniRAN filespace on mentor for convenient exchange of documents with members of the other IEEE 802 WGs • meet when appropriate at interims with the wireless working groups • try to arrange for reciprocal attendence credits with the other IEEE 802 WGs (procedural details still to be clarified).
Envisioned activities of 802.1 OmniRAN TG until July F2F • Continue the work on the following topics: • Wireless Access Setup • Network Discovery and Selection • Point-to-point links across bridged infrastructures • SDN specification needs in P802.1CF • Meetings, teleconferences • Teleconference (late April, date t.b.d.) • 2 full days F2F meeting in Norfolk, VA • Teleconference (mid June, date t.b.d.)
Second Wireless SDN BoFThu, Mar 20th, AM1 • Three presentations with discussions • Outcome of the Wireless BoF in Jan 2014 (Roger Marks) • https://mentor.ieee.org/omniran/dcn/14/omniran-14-0025-00-0000-outcome-of-wireless-sdn-bof-meeting-of-2014-01-23.pdf • Software Defined Networking Supported by IEEE 802.1Q (Janos Farkas) • http://www.ieee802.org/1/files/public/docs2014/Q-farkas-SDN-support-0314-v01.pdf • http://www.ieee802.org/802_tutorials/2013-03/8021-IETF-tutorial-final.pdf • SDN OmniRAN usecases (Juan Carlos Zuniga) • https://mentor.ieee.org/omniran/dcn/14/omniran-14-0029-00-0000-sdn-based-use-cases-for-bof.pptx • Conclusions: • Set up a dedicated mailing list for the Wireless SDN topic • Organize for a further Wireless SDN BoF at July plenary meeting • Establish communication with ONF
