Henry, I believe that's a perception issue, and I would invite you and other folks to a more attentive read of the RAQMON documents. They are actually in WGLC, so it's a good moment, and comments are very welcome. RAQMON has nothing to do with network elements like routers or similar. Endpoints report in real-time information about the QoS of applications to RAQMON collectors, which expose an SNMP MIB interface (the RAQMON MIB). RAQMON supports the concepts of concurrent applications, session information, and session history - which were at the core of the original question. It is complementary to other performance monitoring methods like RTCP-XR, which focuses on media monitoring for IP telephony.
