Hi Cheng, I think that there some information about the per SR Policy performance measurement is not clear to me. AFAIK, performance measurement methods support concurrent test sessions over the same path between the particular set (p2p or p2mp) of systems. For example, in STAMP one can use Stamp Session Identifier (SSID). Thus, I don't see any benefit of using data plane information for demultiplexing OAM sessions. I appreciate your thoughts on this.
