There are commercial solutions for 5G RAN solutions from companies like Samsung that can run on StarlingX.

 

There is also work on open ran ORAN solutions running on StarlingX.

I have added Litao Gao to TO list.  He may be able to provide pointers to you on how to get and run ORAN on StarlingX.

 

Greg.

Hi Greg,

 

Thanks for quick reply.

 

Yes Greg, MEC I meant “computing capabilities at the edge of the mobile network, within the Radio Access Network (RAN) and in close proximity to mobile subscribers.”

 

Dose starlingX platform supports to run MEC services or applications?

Do we have any MEC applications available with starlingX, like we have in Akarino blueprints (Ex: 5G cloud Gaming, HD video, Live broadcasting)?

If yes, I want to bring up starlingX platform ASAP, for that I need your support, if possible can we have one teams call and discuss about bring up issues.

 

 

Thanks,

Prashanthi.

Hi  Greg,

 

Yes, we were able to get internet connectivity by running DHCP client command, IP is also getting allocate.

Thanks for your support and working on further configurations.

 

Have few doubts about that:

 

  1. Are all the configurations mandatory, For example I want to run my containers on Kubernetes, is openstack configurations has to be done or optional??
    [Greg]  OpenStack is optional.
                  There are many users of StarlingX that only use the base StarlingX Kubernetes Platform.
  2. After completing all setting, if I want run MEC services/applications how to run those containers in this server, do you have any applications available along with starlingX?
  3. Please share document, if you have any to configure MEC.
    [Greg] Are you referring to ? …   “MEC or Mobile edge Computing provides an IT service environment and cloud-computing capabilities at the edge of the mobile network, within the Radio Access Network (RAN) and in close proximity to mobile subscribers.”

    Greg.

 

Thanks,

Prashanthi.M

Hey Prashanthi,

 

Before I try to find someone to work closely with you on this … can you try the following solutions.

 

 

So, you say that your ISO install completes and you are able to login as ‘sysadmin’  (initial password is ‘sysadmin’ and you are forced to change it).

But then you have no IP connectivity.

 

So I learned that automatic DHCP does not seem to be working with our DEBIAN loads (STX 8.0)

 

So two options for you to try:

 

  • Run ‘dhclient’ manually
    • RUN THE FOLLOWING:
      • sudo dhclient <ifname>
      •  
      • WHERE <ifname> is the linux interface name of the interface that is physically cabled to a router that gives you internet access
  • OR
  • Configure IP Address and Default IP Route manually
    • RUN THE FOLLOWING:
      • sudo ip address add <IP-ADDRESS>/<SUBNET-LENGTH> dev <PORT>
      • sudo ip link set up dev <PORT>
      • sudo ip route add default via <GATEWAY-IP-ADDRESS> dev <PORT>
      • ping 8.8.8.8
      •  
      • WHERE <PORT> is the linux interface name of the interface that is physically cabled to a router that gives you internet accdess
                      <IP-ADDRESS>/<SUBNET-LENGTH> is the IP ADDRESS for your server (i.e. StarlingX controller-0) based on your local addressing plan
                      <GATEWAY-IP-ADDRESS> is the IP ADDRESS of your adjacent router.

 

Let me know if that works first,

Greg.

Hi Greg,

 

       Thanks for your suggestion in yesterday’s meeting.

       As we discussed in meeting can you please give me one POC name who can help me to bring up StarlingX 8 in my internal PC. I got struck at IP assignment part from long time, I want to bring this up setup ASAP, so your quick support will be helpful.

 

Thanks & Regards,

Prashanthi.
