Hi Tissa,

In section 10.1 in your draft of draft-tissa-nvo3-oam-fm-00, theory of 
operation is discribed, you say that originator device should specify the TTL 
of the transport header as 1 for the first request. Because transit devices in 
underlying network normally don't support the OAM function, if you specify TTL 
as 1, the first transit device will drop it, remote MEP or MIP won't receive 
the message if two or more hops exists between ingress and egress MEPs, so the 
response timer will expire on originator device.
How can you ensure the OAM state machine on originator runs correctly in this 
scenario?

Thanks
