NAME         top

       ip-ioam - IPv6 In-situ OAM (IOAM)

SYNOPSIS         top

       ip ioam  { COMMAND | help }

       ip ioam namespace show

       ip ioam namespace add ID  [ data DATA32 ]  [ wide DATA64 ]

       ip ioam namespace del ID

       ip ioam schema show

       ip ioam schema add ID DATA

       ip ioam schema del ID

       ip ioam namespace set ID schema  { ID | none }

       ip ioam monitor

DESCRIPTION         top

       The ip ioam command is used to configure IPv6 In-situ OAM (IOAM6)
       internal parameters, namely IOAM namespaces and schemas.

       Those parameters also include the mapping between an IOAM
       namespace and an IOAM schema.

       The ip ioam monitor command displays IOAM data received.

EXAMPLES         top

   Configure an IOAM namespace (ID = 1) with both data (32 bits) and wide
       data (64 bits)
       # ip ioam namespace add 1 data 0xdeadbeef wide 0xcafec0caf00dc0de

   Link an existing IOAM schema (ID = 7) to an existing IOAM namespace
       (ID = 1)
       # ip ioam namespace set 1 schema 7
