Abstract:
Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (OAM) mechanisms are
critical building blocks in network operations that are used for
service assurance, fulfillment, or service diagnosis,
troubleshooting, and repair. The current practice is that many
technologies rely on their own OAM protocols that are exclusive to a
given layer. There is little consolidation of OAM in either data
plane or management plane nor well-documented inter-layer OAM
operations. Vendors and Operators dedicate significant resources and
effort through the whole OAM life-cycle each time when a new
technology is (to be) introduced. This is even exacerbated when
dealing with integration of OAM across multiple technologies.
This document describes the problem space and defines an architecture
for the generic and integrated OAM with a focus of multi-layer and
cross-layer considerations.
