Hi, Ops Area WG,
Every now and again, there are discussions on how to best characterize or
qualify a particular kind of "OAM", as well as misunderstandings due to
having different definitions and contexts for a given term. A case in point

Hi, Tim,
Many thanks for this thorough review, which I find incredibly helpful!
As a preface, this I-D began with a central concern and idea, gradually
evolving to include adjacent terms based on group discussions and
participants' requests. This organic-growth process seems not uncommon for

Not really, I thought good progress was made against the YANG Doctors review —

Thanks for this review, Benoit.
Stepping back before answering the specific points, the source of this

IP networks where there is no “band”, and with different parties using
different meanings.

There are two other considerations:
1. ICMP packets might follow a different path than the application in the
presence of ECMP
2. The ICMP responder might rate limit and drop if it's a router regardless of
the drop characteristics of the path -- RFC 6192.
