To contextualize access to this non-authoritative data set via FTP, I've provided another chart to the "12 Days in the life of an IETF FTP server" at https://docs.google.com/document/d/1JAXspeaMWFl8ML3hSezFSM0VsJsHI4uyDlQ2dHip8jo/edit# Access to RFCs is 27% of all FTP traffic and represents 37% of all unique IP addresses. This new chart in the "What information are the users requesting?" section provides a distribution of requests and IP address across the top level directories. A few highlights: * 64% of all requests are for either an I-D or RFC (or 60% of all unique IP addresses, using no aggregation) * the next most popular category (28%) is /ietf which contains historic charter and minute information of WGs; most of the usage is syncing the directory * all other directories constitute < 8% of usage * multiple top-level directories (4) had only a single IP address access it in the sample period Regards, Roman
