Abstract:
This memo defines the Passive Performance Metrics sub-registry of the
Performance Metric Registry. This sub-registry will contain Passive
Performance Metrics, especially those defined in RFCs prepared in the
IP Performance Metrics (IPPM) Working Group of the IETF, and possibly
applicable to other IETF metrics.
IPPM Passive metric registration is meant to allow wider adoption of
common metrics in an inter-operable way. There are challenges with
metric interoperability and adoption (to name a few) due to flexible
input parameters, confusion between many similar metrics, and varying
output formats.
This memo proposes a way to organize registry entries into columns
that are well-defined, permitting consistent development of entries
over time (a column may be marked NA if it is not applicable for that
metric). The design is intended to foster development of registry
entries based on existing reference RFCs, whilst each column serves
as a check-list item to avoid omissions during the registration
process. Every entry in the registry, before IANA action, requires
Expert review as defined by concurrent IETF work in progress
"Registry for Performance Metrics" (draft-manyfolks-ippm-metric-
registry).
The document contains example entries for the Passive Performance
Metrics sub-registry: a registry entry for a passive metric based on
octetTotalCount as defined in RFC5102 and a protocol specific passive
metric based on RTP packets lost as defined in RFC3550. The examples
are for Informational purposes and do not create any entry in the
IANA registry.
