Session Overview

Welcome! In this session, you'll deploy and manage a 5G core network on Kubernetes using Open5GS, an open-source, 3GPP-compliant 5G core with support for network slicing.

Key Activities

  • Kubernetes Setup: Use the Testbed Automator script to initialize your Kubernetes cluster and install essential tools.
  • Core Network Deployment: Deploy Open5GS with network slicing capabilities.

By the end of this session, you'll have hands-on experience with 5G core deployment, and network slicing.

Testbed Automator Script Overview

Purpose: Automates the setup and configuration of a testbed environment.

Key Tasks

  • Install necessary software packages
  • Set up Kubernetes and networking tools
  • Configure various networking plugins like Flannel, Multus, Open vSwitch (OVS)
  • Install storage management systems (OpenEBS)

Technologies and Tools

Kubernetes

  • Kubeadm: Initializes the Kubernetes cluster.
  • Kubectl: CLI tool to interact with the Kubernetes cluster.
  • Helm: Package manager for Kubernetes applications.

Networking

  • Flannel: Container Network Interface (CNI) for Kubernetes.
  • Multus: Meta-CNI for deploying multiple network interfaces in containers.
  • Open vSwitch (OVS): Used for advanced networking and bridge management.

Technologies and Tools (Cont.)

Containerization

  • Containerd: Container Runtime Interface (CRI) compatible container runtime.

    • A container runtime builds on top of operating system kernel features and improves container management with an abstraction layer.

    • Container runtime interface (CRI) is a plugin interface that lets the kubelet - an agent that runs on every node in a Kubernetes cluster - use more than one type of container runtime.

Storage

  • OpenEBS: Manages the storage available on each of the Kubernetes nodes and uses that storage to provide Local or Replicated Persistent Volumes to Stateful workloads.

Deploying testbed-automator

You can use the install.sh script as follows:

cd ~
git clone https://github.com/niloysh/testbed-automator
cd testbed-automator
./install.sh

Note: Do NOT run the install.sh script as sudo or root. Run it as a regular user and provide the password when prompted.

Verify Deployment

On completion, run kubectl get pods -A you should see:

automator-install

After confirming deployment, proceed with Lab 1 to deepen your understanding of the tools you've just deployed.
