Instantiate a network instance using
AWS TNB
After you create a network instance, you must instantiate it. When you instantiate a
network instance, AWS TNB provisions the necessary AWS infrastructure, deploys
containerized network functions, and configures networking and access management to create
a fully operational network service.
- Console
-
To instantiate a network instance using the console
-
Open the AWS TNB console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/tnb/.
-
In the navigation pane, choose Networks.
-
Select the network instance that you want to instantiate.
-
Choose Actions and then
Instantiate.
-
On the Instantiate network page, review details and
optionally, update parameter values.
Updates to the parameter values apply only to this network instance. The
parameters in the NSD and VNFD packages do not change.
-
Choose Instantiate network.
The Deployment status page appears.
-
Use the Refresh icon to track the deployment status
of your network instance. You can also enable Auto
refresh in the Deployment tasks section
to track the progress of each task.
When the deployment status changes to Completed
, the network
instance is instantiated.
- AWS CLI
-
To instantiate a network instance using the AWS CLI
-
Use the instantiate-sol-network-instance command to instantiate the
network instance.
aws tnb instantiate-sol-network-instance --ns-instance-id ^ni-[a-f0-9]{17}$
--additional-params-for-ns "{\"param1
\": \"value1
\", \"param2
\": \"value2
\"}"
-
Next, view the network operation status.
