Specifically, we extend in-situ OAM to support more standard tracing data than is currently defined and add new features to avoid limitations on MTU, bandwidth, forwarding path length, and node processing capability. We provide use cases to motivate our proposal and base the changes on the current in-situ OAM header format specification.}, }
