Dave, idle curiousity - in your opinion, are there circumstances in which
you would NOT want to run OAM?

I forget the exact situation, but I was working with a customer on an issue,
and the customer brought up OAM, and my own reading suggested it wasn't a
bright idea. Might have been on an RLAN design - ATM DS3 at the host and DSL
at a number of remote sites ( work at home, IIRC )

If OAM detects a failure on the ATM circuit, doesn't it shut down the
interface, requiring manual restart when the line comes back up? If so, OAM
is more of a carrier thing?

thanks

Chuck
