电信级开放网络设备关键技术研究与研发实践

Key Technology Research and Development Practice of Carrier-grade Open Network Devices

网络设备的能力开放是SDN/NFV技术的自然延伸,其中白盒交换机已在云数据中心领域验证了其可行性和先进性。近年来随着5G网络的规模建设,RAN设备、CPE设备、承载网络路由器设备的架构和能力开放已成为新的研究热点。首先从开源社区、产业现状等方面介绍了开放网络设备的背景,并进一步分析了开放网络设备研发所涉及的关键技术,最后阐述了中国联通在5G承载网络接入路由器领域所开展的能力开放创新实践,并对后续研发方向进行了展望。

The capability opening of network devices is a natural extension of SDN/NFV technology,among which white box switch has proved its feasibility and advanced in the field of cloud data center. In recent years,with the large-scale construction of 5G network,architecture and capability opening of RAN equipment,CPE equipment and bearer network router equipment have become a new research hotspot. It first introduced the background of open network equipment from the aspects of the open source community and industry status quo,and further analyzes the key technologies involved in the open network equipment research and development,finally it expounds China Unicom’s innovative practice of capability opening in the field of 5G bearer network access routers,and the follow-up research and development direction is prospected.
