Lab 1: Network Slicing using Slice Profile

In this lab you will learn how to leverage BubbleRAN's Slice Operator for deploying end-to-end network slices through the definition of SliceProfiles.

In this sample, a SliceProfile with a single eMBB traffic slice is defined with an AMBR of 50Mbps in DL and 2Mbps in uplink.

To deploy this Slice Profile run brc install slice eMBB_slice.yaml. It should finish without errors and printout the three Kubernetes resource names that were created. Check for the status of the deployment using the command brc observe. Wait until all the Elements are in the STATUS set to 1/1 Y state.

Within the brc observe dashboard you may also press Tab key until the Slices tab of the dashboard where you should see the following slice information.
