OB-UDPST project team closes in on version 8.2.0 and completes TR-471 Issue 4

June 27, 2024

Current Progress: Building on the success of the publication of version 8.1.0, the OB-UDPST project team is working with a network operator as they evaluate a large-scale rollout driven by their multi-stream & multi-gigabit testing needs.

The project has almost completed work on version 8.2.0, making minor fixes and enhancements, and delivering multi-key authentication. The addition of multi-key authentication allows each individual server instance to better support a variety of client instances across different service offerings and device types. For large deployments, this capability is expected to significantly improve key management and maintenance.

The OB-UDPST project team has completed work on Issue 4 of TR-471. This includes new multi-flow capabilities in the information model and the addition of new parameters to the TR-181 Data Model to support Issue 4 of TR-471. The project team has agreed to send TR-471 Issue 4 to Final Ballot.
