CHAPTER 7.0 - Electronic Interfaces and Gateways

7.3 Telecommunications Access Gateway (TAG)


TAG is similar to EDI in that it is a computer-to-computer exchange of business documents in a standard format over a communications path. TAG provides a bi-directional flow of information from a CLEC to BellSouth's Operational Support Systems (OSS) and from BellSouth's OSS to the CLEC. The TAG interface provides both pre-ordering and ordering functionality through the CLEC's own application interface. Again, similar to EDI, TAG supports specific guidelines applicable to pre-ordering and ordering. For more information about these standards and the communications requirements, the CLEC should review the TAG API Reference Guide at the web address listed below or contact the Account Team representative: http://www.interconnection.bellsouth.com/reference_library/guides/html/lens_tafi.html
