Aether OnRampis now the recommended way to get started with Aether. It defines a step-by-step procedure for deploying and operating Aether on your own hardware, including support for5G small cellradios. If you want to skip the documentation and jump directly into GitHub, start here.
Troubleshooting
General troubleshooting hints are included in theOnRamp Guide, but some of the issues people report are due to the specifics of either their local environment or the hardware they are using. A summary of these issues and how they might be addressed are being tracked here.
RoadMap
The following is a high-level Roadmap for Aether OnRamp.
Infrastructure Improvements
General improvements to the DevOps tooling/infrastructure that supports Aether.
Migrate integration tests to JJB and stored on GitHub.
Migrate CI jobs to GitHub Actions.
Near-term Blueprints
Configuration options that OnRamp should be able to support. These features have previously been demonstrated in other settings, but need to be packaged for release as OnRamp blueprints.
Configure with a second (and third) base station.
Configure with other simulators (e.g., UERANSIM).
Configure with UPF throughput optimizations.
Configure with example edge app to demo local breakout.
