This document presents a base YANG data model for connection-oriented
Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (OAM) protocols.  It
provides a technology-independent abstraction of key OAM constructs
for such protocols.  The model presented here can be extended to
include technology-specific details.  This guarantees uniformity in
the management of OAM protocols and provides support for nested OAM
workflows (i.e., performing OAM functions at different levels through
a unified interface).

The YANG data model in this document conforms to the Network
Management Datastore Architecture.

This document is a product of the Layer Independent OAM Management in the Multi-Layer Environment Working Group of the IETF.

This is now a Proposed Standard.

STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track
protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements.  Please refer to the current edition of the Official
Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the 
standardization state and status of this protocol.  Distribution of this 
memo is unlimited.
