COMMENT:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

No objection to the publication of this document. However, some comments.

So basically you specify the same functionality as remote ping MIB in RFC4560 where
- probing interface = SNMP manager
- proxy interface = SNMP agent
- probed agent = destination
Right? So any connection with RFC4560?

I guess this mechanism is a similar functionality as RFC 6812, where
- proxy agent = sender
- responder = destination
... even the technology is not based on the ICMP extended echo
As such I believe that the RFC 6812 IPR applies here as well.
However, I'm not the one to make the call. So I will forward to the appropriate persons.

Potentially the OWAMP IPRs apply as well.
