This repository contains the necessary files for the deployment of OAI-RAN and 5G modules (AMF, HSS, SMF, PCRF, and UPF) through helm charts
Helm is a package manager for Kubernetes that allows developers and operators to more easily package, configure, and deploy applications and services onto Kubernetes clusters.
- Install Homebrew
git clone https://github.com/Homebrew/brew ~/.linuxbrew/Homebrew
mkdir ~/.linuxbrew/bin
ln -s ~/.linuxbrew/Homebrew/bin/brew ~/.linuxbrew/bin
eval $(~/.linuxbrew/bin/brew shellenv)
brew install helm
This project provides the following files:
| File | Description |
|---|---|
Chart.yaml |
The definition file for your application |
values.yaml |
Configurable values that are inserted into the following template files |
templates/deployment.yaml |
Template to configure your application deployment. |
templates/service.yaml |
Template to configure your application deployment. |
The RAN docker images should already exist in all nodes.
The flexran-controller docker image should already exist in all nodes.
| Chart | Creates the modules |
|---|---|
free5gc |
amf, upf, hss, pcrf, amf, mongo and webapp (webapp service) |
oai-ran |
rcc-master and rru-ue-master |
simple-chart |
flexran-controller (flexran-controller service), vnf and pnf |
Example:
helm install ./[chart] --generate-name --set name=[name] --set nodeAffinity.values=[node tag]
By default (w/o --set nodeAffinity.values=[node tag]):
-
free5gc chart deploys in labeled node environment=cloud
-
simple-chart deploys in labeled node environment=edge
-
oai-ran chart deploys in rru-ue-master in labeled node usrp=connected; and rcc-master in a node without rru-ue-master
This chart creates any basic deployment (without specifications) based only on the name of the image, just run:
helm install ./simple-chart --generate-name --set name=[image-name] --set nodeAffinity.values=[node tag]
Example:
helm install --dry-run --debug ./[chart] --generate-name --set name=[name]
