1. Introduction
[RFC8655] provides the overall architecture for Deterministic
Networking (DetNet), which provides a capability to carry specified
unicast or multicast data flows for real-time applications with
extremely low data loss rates and bounded latency within a network
domain. Currently DetNet operates on IP and MPLS data plane.
DetNet functionality is divided into two sub-layers. The DetNet
service sub-layer provides DetNet service protection with
functionalities and operation of PREOF, a collective name for Packet
Replication, Elimination, and Ordering Functions. The DetNet
forwarding sub-layer provides resource allocation for DetNet flows
over paths provided by the underlying network.
[I-D.ietf-detnet-oam-framework] details the specific requirements of
the Operation, Administration, and Maintenance (OAM) recommended to
maintain a deterministic network. OAM for the DetNet MPLS data plane
is described in [I-D.ietf-detnet-mpls-oam] and OAM for the DetNet IP
data plane is described in [I-D.ietf-detnet-ip-oam].

Internet-Draft Echo Request/Reply for DetNet Capability February 2024
[I-D.ietf-detnet-oam-framework] described the DetNet service sub-
layer oam requirements of discovering DetNet relay nodes , collecting
DetNet service sub-layer specific (e.g., configuration/operation/
status) information from DetNet relay nodes, as well as discovering
the locations of PREOF functions.
These requirements, could be satisfied using alternative technologies
like NETCONF/YANG, IGP flooding or ping/traceroute.
[I-D.varga-detnet-service-sub-layer-oam] introduced a ping/traceroute
method, "DetNet Ping", and mentions that it could be used for
discovering DetNet capabilities of DetNet relay nodes.
This document introduced extensions to DetNet Ping (echo request/
reply) used in IP, MPLS or other DetNet data plane environments,
which can be used within the DetNet domain, allowing the ping
initiator node to discover the enabled DetNet capabilities of each
relay node of detnet service-sub layer.
1.1. Requirements Language
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and
"OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in
BCP 14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all
capitals, as shown here.
1.2. Terminology
The abbreviations used in this document are:
DetNet: Deterministic Networking
OAM: Operation, Administration, and Maintenance
PRF: Packet Replication Function
PEF: Packet Elimination Function
POF: Packet Ordering Function
PREOF: Packet Replication, Elimination and Ordering Function

Internet-Draft Echo Request/Reply for DetNet Capability February 2024
2.1. DetNet Capability Discovery Operation
Once the DetNet PING initiator node is triggered to discover the
enabled DetNet capabilities of each DetNet relay node, the initiator
node will send DetNet echo requests that include the DetNet
Capabilities Discovery Header.
First, with TTL equal to 1 to reach the closest node, which may be an
DetNet relay node or not. Then with TTL equal to 2 to reach the
second nearest node, which also may be an DetNet relay node or not.
And further, increasing by 1 the TTL every time the initiator node
sends a new echo request. As a result, the echo requests sent by the
initiator node will reach all nodes one by one along the transport
path of DetNet service flow.
Alternatively, if the initiator node knows precisely all the DetNet
relay nodes beforehand, once the initiator node is triggered to
discover the enabled DetNet capabilities, it can send an echo request
to each DetNet relay node directly, without TTL expiration.
2.2. DetNet Capability Discovery Header
For echo DetNet request/reply message used for DetNet capability
discovery, DetNet capabilities information are delivered by several
kinds of DetNet Capabilities Discovery Objects. This document
introduces an abstract header which has the corresponding format
depending on the type of DetNet data plane. The format of DetNet
Capabilities Discovery Object is shown as below.
