The meeting has been scheduled as requested (June 10th 8am US Eastern Time). The webex invite has been sent out to the list.

Please note that this is an open informal session driven by the authors/contributors of the relevant drafts. The objective is to produce a single document on the topic that the TEAS WG can look to adopt.

Hello TEAS chairs,

To give more time to all co-authors, would it be possible to create a Webex meeting for Friday June 10 @ 8:00 EST

Subject: [**EXTERNAL**] RE: [Teas] Applicability of IETF network slices in the 3GPP context
Hi authors and WG,

It is great to hear that people agree this topic is important and willing to work together.

  1.  Call meeting proposal
Agree with Reza that a call meeting will be very helpful.
-       Friday June 3 @ 8:00 EST
-       Friday June 10 @ 8:00 EST
These 2 time slots both work for me and the 1st one is preferred. Could chairs kindly help to book a webex meeting if the authors think the time is suitable?

  1.  Document merge proposal
There are 3 documents in TEAS about this topic with slightly different side focus:

  *   draft-geng-teas-network-slice-mapping provides a procedure of mapping 5G end-to-end network defined in 5GPP slice to transport network slice defined in IETF, which gives guidance about how to use IETF network slice in 5G scenario in management plane, control plane and data plane respectively.
  *   draft-contreras-teas-3gpp-ietf-slice-mapping discusses mapping of 3GPP slice and IETF network slice endpoint and other related parameters, which mainly focuses about how to provide connection between 3GPP connection by IETF Network Slice with NSC
  *   draft-rokui-5g-ietf-network-slice discusses the relationship between 5G E2E network slicing and IETF network slice for 5G use-case, which also gives 5G IETF Network Slice NBI Information Model

Here is an initial proposal about the structure for combining these 3 documents:

  *   5G End-to-End Network Slice Introduction  . . . . . . . . .   background information summarized from 3 documents
  *   Network Slice Mapping Structure . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .   draft-geng-teas-network-slice-mapping/draft-rokui-5g-ietf-network-slice
  *   Network Slice Mapping Parameters  . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . draft-contreras-teas-3gpp-ietf-slice-mapping/ draft-geng-teas-network-slice-mapping
  *   Network Slice Mapping Procedure . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .   draft-geng-teas-network-slice-mapping

•   Network Slice Mapping in Management Plane . . . . . . . .   draft-contreras-teas-3gpp-ietf-slice-mapping

•   Network Slice Mapping in Control Plane  . . . . . . . . .  draft-geng-teas-network-slice-mapping

•   Network Slice Mapping in Data Plane . . . . . . . . . . .  draft-geng-teas-network-slice-mapping

  *   5G IETF Network Slice NBI  . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .  draft-rokui-5g-ietf-network-slice

Asunto: RE: [Teas] Applicability of IETF network slices in the 3GPP context

Agree here, as well.

I think we have complementary parts which are worthy to put together. On one hand there are generic architectural aspects that can show how 3GPP systems will act as upper systems of IETF NSC. There are also aspects on how 3GPP expects (as today) to requests slices at TN (in 3GPP terminology), which could show limitations (or undefined terms) on some of the required capabilities at the connectivity slices. And finally there are potential realizations today that could be documented.

The task is huge, anyway, so we need to analyze what can be delivered for IETF114, maybe an structure of the merged content, hopefully something else. In any case, definitely worthy to work on it.

Both dates as proposed by Reza are fine for me. I expect to do some preliminary work on proposition of parts to consider from the 3 drafts before the potential meeting, so we can advance with the work offline.

Thanks,

Best regards

Luis

Thanks Lou and Pavan,
Agreed with your suggestion.

To all authors of the three drafts mentioned below,
It would be a good idea to have a meeting between us to decide about the next step. What is the best way to have this meeting? Does either of the following slots work for you?

  *   Friday June 3 @ 8:00 EST
  *   Friday June 10 @ 8:00 EST
Cheers,
Reza

WG,
We (the chairs) acknowledge that it is important for the WG to work on a document that discusses the applicability of IETF network slices in the 3GPP context.

We have had 3 documents presented in past TEAS sessions that can form the basis of such a document:
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-contreras-teas-3gpp-ietf-slice-mapping/
[datatracker.ietf.org]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-contreras-teas-3gpp-ietf-slice-mapping/__;!!OSsGDw!MeCTM2ODJOQpcbP4VaxqGk4gua_Vi78oH8VsMeH8f7isG1X-DXxf1BRe0aWG0Ml7kcu9MAl_svtR5BwU3qWU5oOhIwk$>

We encourage the authors of these documents to find ways to collaborate and produce a single document (ideally before IETF114) that the WG can look to adopt.
