Abstract

In general, this disclosure describes techniques for a containerized router operating within a cloud native orchestration framework. In an example, a virtualized cell site router comprises a computing device configured with a containerized router, the computing device comprising: a containerized virtual router configured to execute on the processing circuitry and configured to implement a data plane for the containerized router; a containerized routing protocol process configured to execute on the processing circuitry and configured to implement a control plane for the containerized router; and a pod comprising a containerized distributed unit, wherein the containerized routing protocol process is configured to advertise routing information comprising reachability information for the containerized distributed unit.
