How do I deploy Intent in Autonomous Networks to realizing agile self adapting networks?

Curated by Aaron Boasman-Patel

Share

  1. Read the Autonomous Networks whitepaper to understand why AN is critical for CSPS and the latest industry trends and industry progress. You will also discover current industry best practices, the TM Forum frameworks and methodologies as well as the achievements of the Autonomous Networks project

  2. Watch the Autonomous Networks webinar for an overview on the TM Forum reference architecture as well as an introduction to intent modelling and interfaces.

  3. Read the Autonomous Networks Business Requirements and Framework guide to understand the business requirements and business framework of services and infrastructure supported by Autonomous Networks, including the user requirements per user stories, key business capabilities and framework, and related key metrics for measuring autonomous levels, as well as new business models of production, ecosystem, collaboration.

    IG1218: Autonomous Networks Business Requirement and Framework V21.10

  4. Implement the TM Forum Autonomous Networks Architecture

    IG1251: Autonomous Networks Reference Architecture V1.O.O

  5. Discover Intent in Autonomous Networks and understand the technical framework and how to realise intent-based operations

    IG1253: Intent in Autonomous Networks V1.0.0

  6. Understand how to express Intent which is how humans communicate their requirements to the autonomous system and this is how sub-systems communicate requirements between each other and report on their success in operating accordingly.

    IG1253A: Intent Common Model V1.1.0

  7. Specify a set of intent extension models to address various concerns and purposes, such as validity management of intent and expectation.

    IG1253B: Intent Extension Models V1.0.0

  8. Understand the details of the intent life cycle including the related roles and tasks of intent management functions.

    IG1253C: Intent Life Cycle Management and Interface V1.1.0

  9. Create a registration and discovery scheme involving an intent manager capability profile including their scope of responsibilities through an intent manager registry function

    IG1253D: Intent Manager Capability Profiles V1.0.0

  10. Get involved and join the Autonomous Networks Project to contribute to the standards and best practice in Intent. Make sure you are at the forefront of thought leadership in this exciting area and accelerate your autonomous network plans.
