The IESG has received a request from the Layer Independent OAM Management in the Multi-Layer Environment WG (lime) to consider the following document: - 'Generic YANG Data Model for Connectionless Operations, Administration, and Maintenance(OAM) protocols' <draft-ietf-lime-yang-connectionless-oam-11.txt> as Proposed Standard The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2017-10-25. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract This document presents a base YANG Data model for connectionless Operations Administration, and Maintenance(OAM) protocols. It provides a technology-independent abstraction of key OAM constructs for connectionless protocols. The base model presented here can be extended to include technology specific details. This is leading to uniformity between OAM protocols and support both nested OAM workflows (i.e., performing OAM functions at different or same levels through a unified interface) and interacting OAM workflows ( i.e., performing OAM functions at same levels through a unified interface). The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-lime-yang-connectionless-oam/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-lime-yang-connectionless-oam/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
