Introduction Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (OAM) toolset provides methods for fault management and performance monitoring in each layer of the network, in order to improve their ability to support services with guaranteed and strict Service Level Agreements (SLAs) while reducing operational costs. 1.1. Conventions used in this document 1.1.1. Terminology Term "Overlay OAM" used in this document interchangeably with longer version "set of OAM protocols, methods and tools for Overlay networks".

Requirements Language The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119]. 2. On-demand Continuity Check and Connectivity Verification The format of the control packet to support ping and traceroute functionality in overlay networks Figure 1 is similar to the format of MPLS LSP Ping [RFC4379]. 0 1 2 3 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Version Number | Global Flags | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Message Type | Reply mode | Return Code | Return S.code | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Sender's Handle | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Sequence Number | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ ~ TLVs ~ +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Figure 1: Overlay OAM Ping format The interpretation of the fields is Mirsky, et al. Expires January 2, 2017 [Page 3] Internet-Draft On-demand CC/CV for Overlay Networks July 2016 The Version reflects the current version. The version number is to be incremented whenever a change is made that affects the ability of an implementation to correctly parse or process control packet. The Global Flags is a bit vector field The Messaage Type filed reflects the type of the packet. The Reply Mode defines the type of the return path requested by the sender of the Echo Request. Return Codes and Subcodes can be used to inform the sender about result of processing its request. The Sender's Handle is filled in by the sender, and returned unchanged by the receiver in the echo reply. The Sequence Number is assigned by the sender and can be (for example) used to detect missed replies. TLVs (Type-Length-Value tuples) have the two octets long Type field, two octets long Length field that is legth of the Value field in octets. 3. IANA Considerations IANA is requested to assign new type from the Overlay OAM Protocol Types registry as follows: +-------+--------------+---------------+ | Value | Description | Reference | +-------+--------------+---------------+ | TBA | Overlay Ping | This document | +-------+--------------+---------------+ Table 1: Overlay Ping Type 4.
