Multicast On-Path Telemetry Using In Situ Operations, Administration, and Maintenance
RFC 9630, “Multicast On-Path Telemetry Using In Situ Operations, Administration, and Maintenance”, is a Proposed Standard document published in August 2024 by H. Song, M. McBride, G. Mirsky, G. Mishra, H. Asaeda, T. Zhou. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document specifies two solutions to meet the requirements of on-path telemetry for multicast traffic using IOAM. While IOAM is advantageous for multicast traffic telemetry, some unique challenges are present. This document provides the solutions based on the IOAM trace option and direct export option to support the telemetry data correlation and the multicast tree reconstruction without incurring data redundancy.
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.
