SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PROVIDING CONTAINER ATTRIBUTES AS PART OF OAM TECHNIQUES
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving a data packet at a corresponding container;
determining identification information of the corresponding container;
modifying the data packet to include the container specific information to yield a modified data packet; and
forwarding the modified data packet to a next destination based on destination information included in the data packet.

Abstract
Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for providing container specific information as part of in-situ OAM, SRH or NSH of a data packet in order to provide a more holistic overview of a path traversed by a data packet in a network. In one aspect of the present disclosure, a method of providing container specific information includes receiving a data packet at a corresponding container; determining identification information of the corresponding container; modifying the data packet to include the container specific information to yield a modified data packet; and forwarding the modified data packet to a next destination based on destination information included in the data packet.
