10. OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE |
This chapter supersedes any requirements of [INTRO:3] relating to "Extensions to the IP Module."
Facilities to support operation and maintenance (O&M) activities form an essential part of any router implementation. Although these functions do not seem to relate directly to interoperability, they are essential to the network manager who must make the router interoperate and must track down problems when it doesn't. This chapter also includes some discussion of router initialization and of facilities to assist network managers in securing and accounting for their networks.
