The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Retrieval Methods YANG Data Model for the Management of Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (OAM) Protocols that use Connectionless Communications' (draft-ietf-lime-yang-connectionless-oam-methods-13.txt) as Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Layer Independent OAM Management in the Multi-Layer Environment Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Warren Kumari and Benoit Claise. A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-lime-yang-connectionless-oam-methods/ Technical Summary This document presents a retrieval method YANG Data model for connectionless OAM protocols. It provides a technology-independent RPC commands for connectionless OAM protocols. The retrieval methods model presented here can be extended to include technology specific details. Working Group Summary This document is the product of an early split of LIME YANG Models into Connection-Oriented (C-O) OAM Models and Connectionless (CL, i.e., this) OAM Models. Further, the CL Model is further split into the Model (adjunct document) and the retrieval methods (this document). Document Quality There are plans of and implementations of this protocol. This includes at least two different implementations of the model, as well as product and demos at Bits-n-Bytes. Further, there are plans to finalize the implementation of this specification. The WG was very active in reviewing these documents. Notably, participants of the BFD and MPLS WGs were special reviewers. Additionally, worth mentioning Carl Moberg's YANG Doctor review which resulted in many fixes and improvements.
