RT Conference Proceedings T1 A Framework to boost the potential of networkin- a-box solutions A1 Baena-González, José Carlos A1 Fortes-Rodríguez, Sergio A1 Peñaherrera-Pulla, Oswaldo Sebastián A1 Barco-Moreno, Raquel K1 Redes digitales de servicios integrados AB The expected heterogeneous connectivity provided by the fifth generation mobile network (5G) implies a huge revolution in the telecommunication field. Here, virtualisation and software implementation of network elements have been positioned as a key elements for this revolution. At the same time and as a consequence of the evolution of these two paradigms, network-in-a-box solutions have also emerged as a potential way in the deployment of networks, offering a portable infrastructure. Here, this work presents a framework for easing the management tasks of the network-in-a-box devices, allowing abstracting the hardware and software implementation of these kind of solutions. We provide an experimental validation of the framework through the deployment of a portable cellular network. Besides, a Cloud Gaming service is launched on this scenario, showing the versatility and strengths that the framework provides to these novel solutions.
