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 Connection Oriented Operations, Administration, and Maintenance(OAM) protocols' <draft-ietf-lime-yang-connection-oriented-oam-model-04.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 2018-02-19. 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 connection oriented OAM protocols. It provides a technology-independent abstraction of key OAM constructs for such protocols. The model presented here can be extended to include technology specific details. This guarantees uniformity in the management of OAM protocols and provides support for nested OAM workflows (i.e., performing OAM functions at different levels through a unified interface) The YANG model in this document conforms to the Network Management Datastore Architecture defined in [I-D.ietf-netmod-revised-datastores]. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-lime-yang-connection-oriented-oam-model/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-lime-yang-connection-oriented-oam-model/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D. The document contains these normative downward references.
