Abstract:

   In situ Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (IOAM), defined
   in RFC 9197, collects operational and telemetry information in the
   packet using IOAM data fields while the packet traverses a path
   between two points in the network.  Several IOAM Option-Types are
   available, for example, Pre-allocated Trace, Proof-of-Transit, Edge-
   to-Edge, and Incremental Trace, that can be used to collect
   information for calculating various performance metrics.

   RFC 9326 defines the IOAM Direct Export (IOAM-DEX) Option-Type in
   which the operational state and telemetry information are collected
   according to the specified profile and exported in a manner and
   format defined by a local policy on each node along the path.

   MPLS Network Actions (MNA) techniques indicate actions to be
   performed on any combination of Label Switched Paths, MPLS packets,
   and the node itself, and to transport data needed for these actions.
   This document employs the MNA mechanisms to collect and transport the
   operational state and telemetry information using IOAM data fields as
   well as Direct Export.
