Network Service Header Encapsulation for In Situ OAM Data
RFC 9452, “Network Service Header Encapsulation for In Situ OAM Data”, is a Proposed Standard document published in August 2023 by F. Brockners, S. Bhandari. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
In situ Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (IOAM) is used for recording and collecting operational and telemetry information while the packet traverses a path between two points in the network. This document outlines how IOAM-Data-Fields are encapsulated with the Network Service Header (NSH).
What “Proposed Standard” means
An entry-level standards-track specification: stable, peer-reviewed and a solid basis for implementation, though it may still evolve before becoming an Internet Standard.
