OSS Interface Design Sample Clauses
The OSS Interface Design clause defines the requirements and standards for designing interfaces between the parties' systems and any Open Source Software (OSS) components. It typically outlines how the integration should be structured, including technical specifications, compatibility requirements, and documentation obligations to ensure seamless interaction between proprietary and open source elements. By establishing clear guidelines for interface design, this clause helps prevent integration issues, ensures interoperability, and reduces the risk of technical conflicts or security vulnerabilities when incorporating OSS into a larger system.
OSS Interface Design. 10.2.1 USWC will develop OSS interfaces using an electronic gateway solution consistent with the design prescribed by the FCC, Docket 96-98, FCC 96-325, paragraph 527. These gateways will act as a mediation or control point between Teligent’s and USWC’s Operations Systems. Additionally, these gateways will provide security for the interface, protecting the integrity of the USWC network and its databases.
10.2.2 USWC proposes the use of the existing Electronic Data Interchange (“EDI”) standard for the transmission of monthly local billing information. EDI is an established standard under the auspices of the American National Standards Institute/Accredited Standards Committee (ANSI/ASC) X12 Committee. A proper subset of this specification has been adopted by the Telecommunications Industry Forum (TCIF) as the “811 Guidelines” specifically for the purposes of telecommunications billing.
10.2.3 For the exchange of daily usage data, including third party billed, collect, and card calls, USWC will use the Bellcore EMR format for the records, using the Network Data Mover (“NDM”), otherwise also known as the Connect:Direct method to transmit the information to carriers.
OSS Interface Design will develop OSS interfaces using an electronic gateway solution consistent with the design prescribed by the FCC, Docket 96-98, FCC 96-325, paragraph 527. These gateways will act as a mediation or control point between Pac-West's and USWC's Operations Systems. Additionally, these gateways will provide security for the interface, protecting the integrity of the USWC network and its databases.
