Data Manifest for Telemetry Data: Updates were presented on the data manifest draft, including changes related to young module implementation and its relationship to other drafts.
Packet Loss Reporting: A draft on packet loss reporting was presented, focusing on the information model for reporting packet loss and the mapping of hardware counters to discard classes. There was discussion regarding the use of 48-bit counters and guidelines for Yang authors.
IPFix Alternate Marking: Updates were presented on the IPFix alternate marking draft, with questions raised about flow keys.
TACACS+ TLS YANG Model: Discussion on progress of modeling TechEx TLS and potential adoption of draft specifications.
Data Provenance with COSE: A proposal for using COSE signatures for data provenance was presented, with discussion regarding hosting and potential adoption in NetMod.
Scheduled OAM YANG Model: Presentation of a YANG data model for scheduled OAM, including concepts of unitary tests and test sequences. There was a discussion on schema mount approach.
Intent-Based Management for SDV: Initial presentation of intent-based management framework for software-defined vehicles. Call for discussion on mailing list.
