Operations, Administration, and Maintenance for Deterministic Networking with the MPLS Data Plane
RFC 9546, “Operations, Administration, and Maintenance for Deterministic Networking with the MPLS Data Plane”, is a Proposed Standard document published in February 2024 by G. Mirsky, M. Chen, B. Varga. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document defines format and usage principles of the Deterministic Networking (DetNet) service Associated Channel over a DetNet network with the MPLS data plane. The DetNet service Associated Channel can be used to carry test packets of active Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (OAM) protocols that are used to detect DetNet failures and measure performance metrics.
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.
