5mins | General Administrative & Status | Karthik Sethuraman | - No TAPI Call Next week (April 24) due to MEF/OIF Q2 meeting
- May 1 is a public holiday in many countries - So skip TAPI Call on May 1st
- Next TAPI call on May 8

5mins | TAPI Release Planning | Karthik Sethuraman | - TAPI 2.0.2 Release
- Github tagged 2 weeks ago
- TAPI 2.0.3 is not planned for now
- Focus on TAPI 2.1 (July end)
- OTSi Spec Model Updates to include media
- ETH Spec Model Updates to include OAM
- Add DSR Spec Model
- OAM Model Updates to align with MEF NRM-OAM
- Notification Model Updates
- Add Equipment/Inventory Model (previously scheduled for 2.2)
- TAPI 3.0
- Switch to a Major release number only if there are major backward compatibility impacts
- Create separate develop branches now?
- Not needed unless we have to fix more 2.0.2 bugs

60mins | OTSi Model | Nigel Davis | - Overall model skeleton based on Core
- Difference between Media Channel & Connection
- None - Both are ForwardingConstructs (FC) - FC conceptually constrains and enables forwarding flow
- Everything in a photonic layer is about channelizing the flow of photons or spectrum of light - hence it is an FC and FC in TAPI is modeled as a Connection

- Media Channel in TAPI is modeled as an OTSiG Connection (bundle of OTSi media channels)

- Media Channels in ITU-T - Constraining, concatenating and filtering the signal spectrum (ignores that OTSi requires DSP to resolve the spectrum)


- Disaggregated Node with Overheads and no amplifiers

- Schematic with amplifier put back in the picture

 - Relationship of OMS-OTS to OTSi

45mins | Github Issues | Andrea Mazzini Karthik Sethuraman | - ETH VLAN Config - Issue #133
- ETHG (group of VLAN IDs) is used for OAM purposes where only a single VLAN is monitored

- All VLANs in ETHG has to be co-routed, but beyond the scope of the OAM ME/MA, each of these VLANs may have separate route. Thus ETHG is not necessarily E2E.
- But from an UNI-N side, all these VLANs are/should be bundled. So effectively they are a single connection

- Is the below valid to model or monitor as a bundled-connection even if they belong to different services and if they are co-routed in the transit domain. No if needs to be done, OVC (S-Tags) has to be used.
