A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 6645 Title: IP Flow Information Accounting and Export Benchmarking Methodology Author: J. Novak Status: Informational Stream: IETF Date: July 2012 Mailbox: janovak@cisco.com Pages: 39 Characters: 87875 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-bmwg-ipflow-meth-10.txt URL: http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6645.txt This document provides a methodology and framework for quantifying the performance impact of the monitoring of IP flows on a network device and the export of this information to a Collector. It identifies the rate at which the IP flows are created, expired, and successfully exported as a new performance metric in combination with traditional throughput. The metric is only applicable to the devices compliant with RFC 5470, "Architecture for IP Flow Information Export". The methodology quantifies the impact of the IP flow monitoring process on the network equipment.
