Inband DCN refers to the networking mode that uses service paths provided by the managed equipment to realize the management of network equipment. In this mode, the network management information is transmitted over service paths of the equipment.
Objectives and Benefits
A characteristic of the inband DCN mode is the convenient and flexible networking that does not require additional equipment. In this mode, you need not separately provide a network for the DCN and thus save the operation cost.
Realization Principle
As shown in Figure 1, in the inband DCN mode, the DCN information and service information share the same path for transmission.
