I do not support adoption of this document. At its net, this document seems to define an extra header to be used by (all? some?) overlay (def? what’s in scope?) protocols, but said header adds no value other than extra overhead. This seems problematic on a number of levels, adding just an indirection, and a bit flag with a flag define for a timestamp, which creates an OAM in itself conflicting potentially with the proposed OAM carried (and its timestamp). There is no definition for protocols to carry this extra shim, so it is basically floating, and no specifics of what OAMs are carried (and what the benefit is on this indirection instead of carrying natively the OAM). The draft points to BIER MPLS but not to MPLS, which makes me question the scope once again. Perhaps an “Implementation Status” section [RFC 7942] will help.
