  • LFN MAC positioning statement @Heather Kirksey @Jill Lovato

    • Pointer from Email send by Brandon Wick 

    • Messaging is LFN wide - not project specific

    • Questions:

      • ONAP is not a standard - rather it's based on ETSI/GSMA/etc. - is there some documentation of the relationship between the projects and the SDOs?

        • ONAP has specific liaisons but not a centralized source of LFN SDO engagements - readouts are given at TSC meetings from time to time

      • There is some written agreement with ETSI, can you describe this?

        • ONAP is broader than ETSI - but don't know the scope of the agreement

        • With ETSI there is an agreement of ONAP subset implemented 

        • AI - provide the ETSI/ONAP agreement @Jim Baker

      • The value to service providers having a service that works with existing OAM (interop AND operationally compatible) 

        • Both a reduction of effort and clarity of responsibility/reduced TTM

        • Telcos VS over-the-top players rate of change is very high - LFN helps this competitive pace

        • Consistent architecture is another benefit - SDOs do not help get consistent implementation - just consensus 

      • Seems a little ONAP centric - are there other project related proof points?

        • Perhaps a case study may be more appropriate?

          • Go direct to the ODL technical community - Contact @Casey Cain

  • L0/L1 Optical Networks Carrier Interconnection – scope : ONAP/CCVPN and ODL/Transport-pce @FREEMAN, BRIAN D

    • Presentation intention - share activities and seek engagement

    • @Javier - Fragmentation between LFN projects and SDOs

    • slides presented during the call
