| | Open Items | | - Note presentations from ONF Connect are now available at https://www.opennetworking.org/onf-connect-2018-collateral/
- Project plans
- TAPI - Karthik - main activity is enhancement of the Photonic Model, closely tied to the ODTN project in ONF; second is a TAPI 2.2 release in end March (not 3.0, so mainly updates e.g. to resilience, multi-layer, OAM, plus addition of equipment inventory functions); need to start planning for TAPI 3.0, possibly in September.
- item: addition of WT model to TAPI - have discussed in the past, WT group has done some work with TAPI photonic model. Should plan for this, will add as discussio item on WT meeting.
- item: potential integration with ONAP - Tracy - being formalized as a project in ONAP r.4/Dublin, sponsored by Fujitsu and others - establish links with this work - Tracy to provide links
- item: MEF L1 project also will be tied closely with TAPI work, as well as the OAM and Ethernet work (but not photonic work)
- WT - Giorgio - still closing activity on 5th PoC, working on detailed report/white paper, blog was posted last week on the ONF webpage (thanks Timon!)
- plan to discuss alignment with core model updates (PoC mainly aligned with v1.2)
- involves definition of compatibility mechanisms - seems not complete currently, e.g., to handle bug fixes
- note application perspective is different for compatibility
- potentially impacts other group work as well, possible topic for more joint discussion (has been some discussion in TAPI, Nigel has suggested white paper)
- not easy to resolve, many possible definitions/levels for backward compatibility came up in TAPI discussion, but some statement would be good
- OIMT has a work item but has not been addressed yet - Nigel and Martin
- operator issue - updating of applications and devices cannot be done in one action but involves more gradual process
- resolve open issues identified at the PoC, update to the specs to 1.2 version
- additional work on associated models such as Ethernet PHY, Ethernet MAC and synchronization
- initial PHY model was tested in 5th PoC, issues identified in MANTIS tracker, interest in publishing work in 1Q19
- DMIP - Thorsten - have published TR-545 and implemented some aspects in the WT 5th PoC, results were positive and expect more coverage of requirements over time; some minor issues were identified but no urgent issues
- possibility to expand to further areas, e.g., automated commissioning, still under discussion
- operator representatives discussing other areas of work and may have contributions for additional work
- OTIM - Kam - calls consolidated with Thursday OIMT calls to reduce overhead and give people more time for work, continuing technology specific modeling work
- discussing IEEE CFM jointly with ITU-T/IEEE/MEF monthly call - MEP modeling is one issue that might be brought up
- OIMT starting new discussion on IP Segment Routing
