Abstract:
   In-situ Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (IOAM) collects
   operational and telemetry information in the packet while the packet
   traverses a path between two points in the network.  Bit Index
   Explicit Replication (BIER) is an architecture that provides optimal
   multicast forwarding through a "multicast domain", without requiring
   intermediate routers to maintain any per-flow state or to engage in
   an explicit tree-building protocol.  The BIER header contains a bit-
   string in which each bit represents exactly one egress router to
   forward the packet to.  This document outlines the requirements to
   carry IOAM data in BIER header and specifies how IOAM data is
   encapsulated in BIER header.
