The IESG has received a request from the IP Performance Metrics WG (ippm) to consider the following document: - 'Reporting Metrics: Different Points of View' <draft-ietf-ippm-reporting-metrics-08.txt> as an Informational RFC The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2012-04-11. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract Consumers of IP network performance metrics have many different uses in mind. The memo provides "long-term" reporting considerations (e.g, days, weeks or months, as opposed to 10 seconds), based on analysis of the two key audience points-of-view. It describes how the audience categories affect the selection of metric parameters and options when seeking info that serves their needs. The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-ippm-reporting-metrics/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-ippm-reporting-metrics/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
