If we have a mechanism like following, does that address the issue? 1. IOAM header is part of the MPLS encapsulation, any other control word is added after the IOAM header in the data packet. 2. The transit nodes can process the IOAM data field(s) after the EOS in data packets as it is proposed. 3. The decapsulating node removes the MPLS encapsulation including the IOAM header and then processes the other control word following it. 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 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | IOAM Indicator Label | TC |1| TTL | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+<-+ |0 0 0 1|Version| Reserved | IOAM G-ACh | | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | | Reserved | Block Number | IOAM-OPT-Type |IOAM HDR Length| | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ I | | O | | A ~ IOAM Option and Data Space ~ M | | | | | | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+<-+ |0 0 0 0| Rsved | This Header | Header Length | Next Header | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ ~ Variable field per “This header” ~ +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | | | | ~ Payload Packet ~ | | | | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Thanks, Rakesh On Tue, Jan 12, 2021 at 10:00 AM Stewart Bryant <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Thank you Jeffery Please see the note that I sent about iOAM who also want to sit after BoS … and both of you want the same space that PALS and DetNet is already using. We plan to have a joint session on this hosted by PALS at the next IETF, but I think we also need to include the iOAM people. This has scope to get very messy as we find new candidates for BoS metadata so we really need to take a holistic position to ensure the future health the MPLS protocol. - Stewart > On 12 Jan 2021, at 14:27, Jeffrey (Zhaohui) Zhang > <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: > > Hi, > > I just posted > https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-zzhang-intarea-generic-delivery-functions/. > > The initial version was posted to the tsvwg > (https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-zzhang-tsvwg-generic-transport-functions-00). > After discussions/feedback we are re-homing it to intarea wg.
