Summary of 

1. Initial Issue:
   Fransiscus Bimo reported issues reproducing the success of integrating xFAPI and L1, despite discussions with Prof. Vipin’s team. Errors include failure in "API (UL/DL)" and mismatched parameters. Bimo requested a debugging session for resolution.

2. Debugging Attempts:

   • Ray-Guang Cheng (NTUST) identified two potential issues:
     1. L2 not sending DL/UL configurations.
     2. xFAPI failing during conversion.
   • Vipin’s team and collaborators (Ashwini Bhagat, Ankit Barve, Sheryl Lai) conducted debugging and suggested further checks on L2 and FlexRAN environments.

3. Current Status:

   • Installation steps for xFAPI are documented in the updated Deployment Guide (shared by Vipin).
   • Vipin confirmed successful integration of FlexRAN and OSC DU High at NTUST, but issues persist in other environments.
   • Scheduling of meetings has been proposed to expedite debugging.

4. Actions Taken:

   • Ashwini modified phycfg_xran.xml and confirmed some fixes in Testmac mode but highlighted lingering issues in FlexRAN + xFAPI integrations.
   • Discussions are ongoing about time zones and meeting slots for further collaboration.

5. Next Steps:

   • Follow-up meetings or calls are required to address specific issues in xFAPI and L1 integration, especially debugging failures in configurations and environments.
   • Feedback on the updated deployment guide is awaited.

Debugging session are scheduled! 

Creation of a link list to get an overview (docs, readmes, wiki, ....):

Existing Information

• AM/ML
• ODU-High
• OAM/SIM

Rest missing

• needs to be discussed by email (ptl-private) 
• did not happen - sorry

k-Release

• reported page for deployment testing
• continuous of functionality - > xTesting - robot test
  • integration issue between robot and xTesting
  • PTLs → common template 
  • https://hackmd.io/@q-eiMFW8TLa2Pa3QKECMzw/SJXLyJDNJg
    • input preferred from James about xTesting and its advantages.

How to address e2e?!?!? 

• required for e2e testing
• What are O-RAN WGs/FGs defining!
  • Module up health check
    • ???  → O2?!??!?
  • Interface periodically health check 
    • e.g. OAM O1 WG#10 → ves healthcheck
    • e.g OFHM WG#4 → supervision
• best practice from OTIC → TIFG

AI working on it!

• security
• e2, a1, o2, r1,  ...
• 3gPP interface → F1, E1 

2 steps of integration 

1. O-DU-low - xFapi
2. O-DU-high - O-DU-low

Who can do such kind of integration as it is very complex?

Topics:

• key participantsRadisys (Ankit) TZ: IST UTC+05:30
• NTUST (Bimo) TZ: Taiwan
• Intel (Peng, Ashwini Bhagat) TZ:  us?
• Delhi University (Prof Vipin)  TZ: IST UTC+05:30
• knowledge transfer

Per ToC - would be nice of have a running demo in the "networking area"

• time until ~mid januaryJanuary
• Martin - reach out to OAI for a joined
