Aether In a Box - 5GΒΆ

Aether in a Box (AiaB) has been deprecated and replaced by Aether OnRamp.

Aether OnRamp is the recommended way to deploy and test SD-Core. It provides an incremental path for users to learn about, customize, experiment with, and deploy Aether with live 5G traffic.

OnRamp supports multiple deployment scenarios through various blueprints, including:

  • Quick Start deployment (single VM or server)

  • Emulated RAN using gNBSim

  • Physical RAN with real gNBs

  • Multiple UPFs configuration

  • UERANSIM for throughput testing

  • SD-RAN integration

  • OAI and srsRAN 5G support
