Data Fields for In Situ Operations, Administration, and Maintenance Data Fields for In Situ Operations, Administration, and Maintenance
(IOAM) (IOAM)
Abstract Abstract
In situ Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (IOAM) collects In situ Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (IOAM) collects
operational and telemetry information in the packet while the packet operational and telemetry information in the packet while the packet
traverses a path between two points in the network. This document traverses a path between two points in the network. This document
discusses the data fields and associated data types for IOAM. IOAM- discusses the data fields and associated data types for IOAM. IOAM-

their original format and are not required to perform unit or format their original format and are not required to perform unit or format
conversions. Systems that further process IOAM information, e.g., conversions. Systems that further process IOAM information, e.g.,
like a network management system, are assumed to also handle unit like a network management system, are assumed to also handle unit
