The Alternate-Marking method, as presented in RFC 8321, can only be
applied to point-to-point flows, because it assumes that all the
packets of the flow measured on one node are measured again by a
single second node. This document generalizes and expands this
methodology to measure any kind of unicast flow whose packets can
follow several different paths in the network -- in wider terms, a
multipoint-to-multipoint network.  For this reason, the technique
here described is called "Multipoint Alternate Marking".

This document is a product of the IP Performance Measurement Working Group of the IETF.
