Abstract Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (OAM) is a general term that refers to a toolset that can be used for fault detection and isolation, and for performance measurement. OAM mechanisms have been defined for various layers in the protocol stack, and are used with a variety of protocols. This document presents an overview of the OAM mechanisms that have been defined and are currently being defined by the IETF. The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-opsawg-oam-overview/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-opsawg-oam-overview/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D. _______________________________________________ OPSAWG mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/opsawg
