This docker-compose is designed to use `OAI-gNB` with a 7.2 compatible Radio Unit. Before using this docker compose you have to configure
the host machine as per the [ORAN_FHI7.2_Tutorial](../../../doc/ORAN_FHI7.2_Tutorial.md). The container image used by the docker compose file is tested only on `Ubuntu 22.04` docker host.
## Build Image (Optional)
Refer to [OAI Docker/Podman Build and Usage Procedures](../../../docker/README.md)
## Configure Networking
### SR-IOV Virtual Functions (VFs)
In docker-compose environment there is no automated method
to configure the VFs on the fly. The user will have to manually configure
C/U plane VFs before starting the container `OAI-gNB`.
For `N2` interface we are using `macvlan` driver of docker.
You can use the `bridge` driver, in situation
- When the core network is running on the same machine
- or different machine but you have configured
needed `ip route` and forwarding to access the core network from RAN host.
To configure docker `macvlan` network
you need to choose `ipam.config` and `driver_opts.parent` are per your environment
```
oai-net:
driver: macvlan
name: oai-net
ipam:
config:
- subnet: "172.21.16.0/22"
ip_range: "172.21.18.20/32"
gateway: "172.21.19.254"
driver_opts:
com.docker.network.bridge.name: "oai-net"
parent: enp193s0f0
```
To configure `bridge` network you need to choose `ipam.config.subnet` as per your environment.
```
oai-net:
driver: bridge
name: oai-net
ipam:
config:
- subnet: 192.168.72.128/26
driver_opts:
com.docker.network.bridge.name: "oai-net"
```
## Deploy OAI-gNB Container
The [configuration file](../../../targets/PROJECTS/GENERIC-NR-5GC/CONF/gnb.sa.band78.273prb.fhi72.4x4-benetel650.conf) used by docker compose is configured for Benetel 650 RU (RAN650-1v1.0.4-dda1bf5).
