Hi Tjeerd,
Thank you for the question.
Yes, it would be possible. But, for security reasons, In-Data-Packet OAM me=
thods, such as Alternate-Marking and IOAM, should be applied to limited/con=
trolled domains. You can find more details about this requirement in RFC 93=
41 and RFC 9197. It was initially discussed in RFC 8799.

Regards,

Giuseppe

Dear all,

I'm just wondering, can internet users form a controlled (boundary) domain =
and apply the alternate marking method independently of the controlled netw=
ork domain?
This should be possible, but is not very deeply explored?
(Or maybe I'm just missing the point, and the remarks on encapsulating traf=
fic cover this sufficiently?)

With best regards,
Dr. Tjeerd Pinkert
