At the Spring 2025 Meeting, the OB-STEER team called for interested parties to get involved and help progress the existing open source code base. The OB-STEER project started with code that was developed for last year‘s Broadband Forum Innovation Demonstrations at Network X. Building on Broadband Forum’s working text WT-474, OB-STEER aims to create a reference implementation of the Subscriber Session Steering architecture to deliver flexible, on-demand connectivity and simplify network management.
Interoperability of Subscriber Session Steering is of utmost importance as it will be implemented in access network equipment of various vendors. OB-STEER therefore aims to reach out to vendors to agree on implementation options that remain compatible.
If you would like to get involved and contribute to the project, please contact [email protected].
