This document provides an overview of the OAM toolset for MPLS based
Transport Networks. The toolset consists of a comprehensive set of
fault management and performance monitoring capabilities (operating
in the data-plane) which are appropriate for transport networks as
required in RFC 5860 and support the network and services at
different nested levels. This overview includes a brief recap of
MPLS-TP OAM requirements and functions, and of generic mechanisms
created in the MPLS data plane to allow the OAM packets run in-band
and share their fate with data packets. The protocol definitions for
each of the MPLS-TP OAM tools are defined in separate documents (RFCs
or Working Group drafts) which are referenced by this document.
This document is a product of a joint Internet Engineering Task Force
(IETF) / International Telecommunications Union Telecommunications
Standardization Sector (ITU-T) effort to include an MPLS Transport
Profile within the IETF MPLS and PWE3 architectures to support the
capabilities and functionalities of a packet transport network as
defined by the ITU-T.
