Technical Summary:
IEEE 802.1 has specified OAM facilities called Continuity Fault
Management (CFM). CFM messages are structured with an Op-Code field
and have provision for the inclusion of TLV (type, length, value)
structured information. Subsequent to a request from the TRILL WG,
IEEE 802.1 has allocated blocks of CFM Op-Codes and TLV Types to
the IETF. This document specifies the IANA Consideration for the
assignment of values from these blocks.
Working Group Summary:
This is not a Working Group document. The IEEE 802.1 allocation
supported by this document is to the IETF, to be used by various
WG's, not to any particular WG. Hence, it is inappropriate for
this draft to be a WG draft.
Document Quality:
The document is short, simple, and of good quality. It has been
reviewed by IANA, the sponsoring AD, and a four week IETF Last
Call. It conforms to the IANA Considerations requested by IEEE
802.1.
