5G EVE Infrastructure Training Webinar

Overview

This training webinar provided an overview of the 5G EVE infrastructure. It was targeted to end users of the facilities and in particular companion ICT-19 projects.

The first part of the training webinar provided a detailed description of the 5G EVE Portal, which is the main entry point for users to define, run and collect measurements from an experiment making use of one or several of the 5G EVE sites. In particular, attendees will first learn how to define their experiment, both from the perspective of the service under test and the networking configuration. Then the parameterization and reservation system will be described. This is followed by the execution method using the portal’s virtual environment allowing for execution and monitoring of the user’s experiment. Finally, we will give examples of how results can be assessed for the purpose of key-performance indicator (KPI) extraction and tuning of service parameters.

The second part of the training webinar provided an architectural overview of a subset of the 5G EVE sites from Spain, Italy and France, which will be used in subsequent training activities. This overview is focused on the underlying capabilities for experimentation and KPI measurement. We will provide examples of how software is deployed on the infrastructure and how measurements are collected. Some information about on-boarding Virtualized or Containerized Network Functions (VNFs/CNFs) on individual sites for custom configurations of 5G EVE will also be provided.

Target audience

Technically-inclined users of 5G EVE from ICT-19 and other projects, SMEs, vertical industry actors.
