My apologies, but I'm new here.  There has been various discussion about
OAM packets, but what I've seen has been fairly vague -- the O bit in
Geneve and a proposal for an OAM encapsulation that was not detailed
about what application-level information the encapsulation would carry.

Is there solid information about what OAM is to achieve and what is
necessary to achieve it?  Or is that a discussion that we really need to
have?

I can see various different ways of opening up the subject.  One is to
show clearly useful implementations, and from that, start to abstract
the functions that they perform.  Conversely, we can show functions for
which there is a need, and start to work out implementations.
