ONF Connect 2018

SDN Enabled Broadband Access (SEBA) is an initiative started by AT&T and ONF. It is both a Reference Design jointly developed by a number of operators, and an exemplar implementation based on the reference design. This talk will mainly focus on the Exemplar implementation developed by ONF, AT&T's Atlanta Foundry and the SEBA and VOLTHA community.

We will start by briefly discussing SEBA's origins in R-CORD, then delve deep into the components that make up SEBA including VOLTHA, ONOS apps, NEM and the physical OLTs, ONUs and AGG switches, describing how they all fit together in a modular way. We will describe the engineering development process undertaken in the last 6 months to deliver SEBA, and discuss ways in which the community has been involved. Finally, we will touch upon the roadmap for SEBA and the engagement of operators for filed-trials and deployments.
