About This Release This release of Enea NFV Access provides a publicly available Enea NFV Access distribution for a selected set of targets.INFO eltf_params_updated.xml contains many parameters in the book, also in the open source books, and MUST be created FROM eltf_params_template.xml. The parameters are automatically used in the books, via xi:include statements, similar to how parameters from pardoc-distro.xml are included in the book. Read the file eltf_params_updated_template_how_to_use.txt for important details about formats and how to do! The idea is that ELTF will auto-create/update it.

Supported Host Environment The following environments have been validated as host environments for Enea NFV Access 1.0: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, 64bitHardcoded now in this XML file. Might be moved to the parameter file later.INFO Below is a complete section with ID "eltf-target-tables-section" included from elft_params_updated.xml. It contains a variable number of target tables and the section title should be "Supported Targets with Parameters". It has have a short sentence about what it is in the beginning. The subtitles shall have the directory name of the target in the manifest. For more details on system requirements and how to configure the host environment, please see .
Provided Toolchain(s) (SDK) The SDK contains toolchains supporting cross-compilation of applications for the targets on an x86_64b host. (Possibly add this in later) See the Enea NFV Access Application Development Guide for information on how to build and install a toolchain.
