Abstract:
TRILL fault management [RFC7455] specifies the messages and
operations for OAM in TRILL network. The sender collects the replies
for the OAM-relevant request it sent and uses the replies as the
indication of the network faults. In certain circumstances the sender
needs to collect multiple replies to isolate the fault, e.g.
repetitively sending Path Trace Messages (PTM) with increasing value
of hop count and collecting the replies on them to figure out the
fault point of certain path.
With the increasing deployment of Software Defined Network (SDN), a
centralized management server can be used to help with fault
management. The server then is responsible to collect OAM messages
and analyze them to either isolate the network fault or compile
overall OAM information. It naturally uses SDN structure to alleviate
the effort of the requester node and provide a centralized solution
to produce the operation and management feedback of the network.
This document specifies the extensions of TRILL OAM message and the
operations about the network nodes and the centralized management
server to trace and collect OAM relevant messages for further
analysis.
