16 Segregation of OAM and Replication Traffic Support

This feature supports the following:

• Separate network for OAM and Replication traffic
• Supports DSR NOAM and Signaling VNFs.

Replication traffic is optional for a user where it can be used as either Inter-NE network (xmiRepl) or Intra-NE network (imiRepl) or Both or None. xmiRepl/imiRepl and xmi/imi supports Single, Dual, and Mix mode subnet, where both OAM and Replication service network can be on IPV4 or IPV6.

For Signaling VNF, it supports for all the following flavours:

• DIAMETER
• SBR
• UDR
• STP

The user can configure the new xmiRepl and imiRepl in the same or different interface based on NOAM and Signaling VNFs.

Note:

The networks used for all the interfaces (xmi, imi, imiRepl, and xmiRepl) should be different.
