Abstract

An example method for managing a cell site in a 5G RAN may include determining a physical infrastructure layer, a container orchestration platform on the physical infrastructure layer, and a CNF instance associated with the 5G RAN in the container orchestration platform based on a site identifier associated with the cell site. Based on the physical infrastructure layer, the container orchestration platform, and the CNF instance, the method may include building a logical site resource map representing topological information of the cell site. Further, the method may include monitoring and/or managing the cell site using the logical site resource map.
