What tasks should I complete before and after service creation?

Service creation prerequisites

Before attempting to perform any of the service creation procedures in this chapter, the following tasks should be completed to help ensure successful service provisioning:

  1. Create a service management user

  2. Install the required artifact bundles

    • Artifact bundles contain service intent types, which are used for building service templates. Installing the required artifact bundles will make those service intent types accessible from NSP's Network Intents views. For more information see “How do I install an artifact bundle?” in the NSP Network Automation Guide.

      For more information the relationship between NSP's service management and network intents functions, see How do service management and network intents interact?.

  3. Import the service intent types into service management

  4. Create a tunnel template

  5. Create a service tunnel

  6. Create a service template

  7. Verify node support

    • Before beginning service creation, you may want to verify that your intended service will be supported on a certain type of node. NSP provides adaptor artifact guides that can be used to obtain this information. These guides can be obtained from ALED.

When these tasks are complete, you may perform one of the service creation procedures in this chapter.

Post-service creation tasks

After completing any of the service creation procedures in this chapter, the following tasks can be completed, as required:

  1. Generate and execute OAM test suites

  2. Create telemetry subscriptions

  3. Create a telemetry chart and plot statistics
