Authors,

I have few comments related to the draft.

Cheers

- The title should be OAM framework and requirements. 'Operational' is 
misleading
- I do not see much differentiation made between active and passive 
measurements, in each of those requirements. Which applies where is not clear 
enough
- Do not see the requirement and impact the OAM could cause in terms of 
performance and behavior of the network captured
- Do not see any indication of how the frame format should be and the encap 
requirements are
- Do not see any requirement in how the control plane and controller based 
network architectures could exist in harmony from operational point of view. 
Alarm correlation, simultaneous actions by various entities etc
- Performance measurement requirements for actual data and synthetic data is 
not clear
- Can the OAM be initiated from middle of the flow/path? Any requirements 
related to that?
- Do not see any requirement related to 'rate limiting'. Is it not required?

- In sec        4.1, how are you able to tie various layers together? Each 
layer OAM frames could take different paths, not necessarily the same looking 
from each layer.
- In sec 4.2 - What are the requirements when there are different 
domain(network) owners and cannot perform end-to-end OAM?
- In sec 5.1. - Is the requirement valid when the Edge devices exist in 
different administrative domains?
- In sec 5.2.1 - (R3) where is the definition of all possible paths defined? 
Explain the what it means and how you plan to do that in IP networks. Are you 
requiring Entropy field for this? If so, where and how is it defined?
- R7 - Active or synthetic or both?
- R10 - What is the reference to definition of delay variation. I presume you 
are only referring to synthetic measurements. 
- R13 - How can you ensure a crafted packet take same path as data frame? Is 
there a implicit requirement that the header for data and OAM frame remains the 
same?
- R16 - is more of a speculation without knowing what it means by extensible. 
Should be removed unless it is made clear
- R17 - If the OAM header is same as data packet, this requirement do not apply 
correct?
- R21- IP layer is broad, could you specifically identify the type of 
notifications to be propagated to NVo3 layer?
- R22- without knowing what the independence and from what type of application, 
cannot adhere to the requirement.
- R23 - Please identify what is needed to prioritizing identifying the OAM 
frames and any necessary action it supposed to take.
