Abstract:
As the IETF continues to produce and standardize different
Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (OAM) protocols and
technologies, various qualifiers and modifiers are prepended to the
OAM acronym. While, at first glance, the most used appear to be well
understood, the same qualifier may be interpreted differently in
different contexts. A case in point is the qualifiers "in-band" and
"out-of-band" which have their origins in the radio lexicon and which
have been extrapolated into other communication networks.
This document considers some common qualifiers and modifiers that are
prepended, within the context of packet networks, to the OAM acronym,
and lays out guidelines for their use in future IETF work.
This document updates RFC 6291 by adding to the guidelines for the
use of the term "OAM".
