EtherType Protocol Identification of In-situ OAM Data
draft-weis-ippm-ioam-eth-02
Abstract
In-situ Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (IOAM) records
operational and telemetry information in the packet while the packet
traverses a path between two points in the network. This document
defines an EtherType that identifies IOAM data fields as being the
next protocol in a packet, and a header that encapsulates the IOAM
data fields.
