CU/DU on K8s in Split8 model with ZMQ simulated Radio

[jmarkotic]

Hi,
first, kudos to great advancements on project (i came back to learn after some time just o see great progress).
I was reading tutorial on CU/DU ORAN 7.2 On Kuberneets cluster but i was looking for more home/lab friendly setup (no O-RU).
Per my understanding, split 8 is supported as well (both low/high PHY processed by DU) and one could leverage USDP/UHD. But I guess also ZMQ should also work in split8 model ?

Are any of docker images provided with zmq support compiled ? (i guess I could build it myself).
For what i understand i could use existing provided helm charts for 7.2 example and just replace gNB config with ZMQ setup for monolith gNB (since it is still monolith cu/du inside single container) ?

We provide two tutorials demonstrating how to send samples over ZMQ in split 8:

• with srsUE
• with AmarisoftUE

Thanks for answer&info provided. I will use that gNB config in K8s/container setup. As for docker image, i quickly checked dockerfile, and i believe zmq is compiled in (and if not i think can be added).
