A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. This draft is a work item of the Multiprotocol Label Switching of the IETF. Title : Hitless path segment monitoring Authors : Alessandro D'Alessandro Loa Andersson Satoshi Ueno Kaoru Arai Yoshinori Koike Filename : draft-ietf-mpls-tp-temporal-hitless-psm-10.txt Pages : 16 Date : 2016-05-31 Abstract: One of the most important OAM capabilities for transport network operation is fault localisation. An in-service, on-demand segment monitoring function of a transport path is indispensable, particularly when the service monitoring function is activated only between end points. However, the current segment monitoring approach defined for MPLS RFC 6371 [RFC6371] has drawbacks. This document provides an analysis of the existing MPLS-TP OAM mechanisms for the path segment monitoring and provides requirements to guide the development of new OAM tools to support a Hitless Path Segment Monitoring (HPSM).
