    Abstract: A method, a network device, and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium are described in relation to a secure operations, administration, and management (OAM) for remote networks service. The service may categorize performance metric (PM), fault metric (FM) data, and other types of data associated with a virtualized network device of a private network and provide such data to an OAM system of an operator network via a blockchain network or not based on the categorization. The OAM system may also manage orchestration and maintenance of the private network including the virtualized network device based on configuration data transmitted via the blockchain network or not. The virtualized network device may be a radio access network device, a core network device, or an edge server device. The secure OAM for remote networks service may also store service assurance policies as a smart contract in the blockchain network.

    Abstract: In some implementations, a first device may receive, from a second device, network function (NF) configuration information indicating that an NF instance is to be provisioned to support a combination of network slices. The NF configuration information may include first network slice information regarding the first network slice and second network slice information regarding the second network slice. The first device may obtain, from a data structure, first slice configuration information associated with the NF instance supporting the first network slice and second slice configuration information associated with the NF instance supporting the second network slice. The first device may generate configuration parameters to provision the NF instance to support the combination of network slices and provide the configuration parameters to cause the NF instance to be provisioned to support the combination of network slices.

    Abstract: In an example, an indication of one or more first network performance tests associated with a first testing computer and/or an indication of one or more second network performance tests associated with a second testing computer may be provided to a User Equipment (UE). One or more first test results of the one or more first network performance tests and/or one or more second test results of the one or more second network performance tests may be received. One or more first network performance metrics may be determined based upon the one or more first test results. One or more second network performance metrics may be determined based upon the one or more second test results. A network performance issue is determined based upon a comparison of one or more reference metrics with the one or more first network performance metrics and/or the one or more second network performance metrics.
