BDXL administration API
Proposal from Erlend:
https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/bdxr/201905/msg00015.html There have been discussions within Peppol regarding requirements for the BDXL Administration API. Sander will reach out to the involved participants to gather further requirements.
Agreed that the updated BDXL 1.1 specification will mention the BDXL Administration API and its features for updating and maintaining BDXL records.
Discussed that the BDXL Administration API could include a section for how to update a primary BDXL in a federated model.
BDXL 1.1
Starter document received from OASIS:
https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/bdxr/202002/msg00015.html Discussed that the hostname to look up the NAPTR record (commonly done as B-[MD5 hash of participant ID] ) should be standardized.
Federated BDXL
Agreed that the TC will work on a framework/specification for BDXL network federation. Both Peppol and the Business Payment Coalition are working towards federated BDXL designs.
BPC rationale is to create competition among several BDXL service providers, allowing network participants to freely choose among available services. All BDXL services will offer similar and compatible services.
Requirements:
https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/bdxr/202006/msg00003.html Peppol is looking at delegating control of different participant identifier schemes to different SML services, as well as possibly separating groups of participants based on their ID. There would be an algorithm that enables APs to locate
the appropriate SML service based on the a calculation of the participant identifier. Part of the rationale is that the transactional footprint on the current SML has increased with the addition of DNSSEC, and grouping participants into different SML services
is a strategy for distributing the load.
Discussion paper for multiple registration services with only one DNS provider:
https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/bdxr/202006/msg00003.html Discussed that in DNS, zone changes are replicated from primary DNS to secondary DNS services through zone transfers and that the update of primary DNS services can be done using DNS Update:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2136 Sander and Kenneth had a meeting to come up with a proposal for an architectural drawing of a federated BDXL model within the complete 4-corner network, and will share with the TC.
Discussed that the BDXL could/should hold information about the current registrar service of a given participant, so that BDXL and registrar services can prevent unauthorized updates of participant identifiers registered through a different
registrar service.
Still need to have a discussion about authorization/registration service and how it could be supported in BDXL. Sander will give a walkthrough at a later meeting.
TC conference call schedule
Agreed to hold weekly Atlantic meetings until further notice. Pacific calls will continue to be held biweekly and will follow the current schedule.
Face-to-face meeting
Should we schedule online work sessions to replace the face-to-face meeting?
