Hi, Ops Area WG, Every now and again, there are discussions on how to best characterize or qualify a particular kind of "OAM", as well as misunderstandings due to having different definitions and contexts for a given term. A case in point is "in-band" or "out-of-band" OAM, as recently surfaced at https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/opsawg/jREEH1sFOZ-uxZNky-RTggpxkuk/.
To alleviate this issue, Adrian and I wrote a short I-D to provide forward-looking guidance on "foobar OAM". We would appreciate feedback and input on this position, which aims at updating the guidelines for the "OAM" acronym, with unambiguous guidelines for their modifiers. Guidelines for Charactering "OAM": https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-pignataro-opsawg-oam-whaaat-question-mark/ Look forward to input and comments to make this more clear and effective! Adrian & Carlos.
