[ipfix-req] does raqmon-pdu compete with ipfix?

["Carter Bullard" <[e-mail]>]

Gentle People,
   I believe that raqmon-pdu is indeed a direct
competitor to IPFIX.  Why not realize that raqmon
is a form of flow data and have it use IPFIX?

Carter

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts
directories. This draft is a work item of the Remote Network Monitoring
Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Real-time Application Quality of Service
Monitoring 
                         (RAQMON) Protocol Data Unit (PDU)
	Author(s)	: A. Siddiqui et al.
	Filename	: draft-ietf-rmonmib-raqmon-pdu-00.txt
	Pages		: 26
	Date		: 2003-1-15
	
This memo defines a common protocol data unit (PDU) used between RAQMON
Data Source (RDS) and RAQMON Report Collector (RRC) to report a QOS
statistics using RTCP and SNMP as Transport Protocol. The original
RAQMON draft [SIDDIQUI3] was split into 3 parts to identify the RAQMON
Framework, RAQMON QOS PDU and RAQMON MIB. This memo defined RAQMON QOS
Protocol Data Unit (PDU). This memo also outlines mechanisms to use Real
Time Transport Control Protocol
(RTCP) and Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) to transport these
PDUs between RAQMON Data Source (RDS) and RAQMON Report Collector (RRC)
as outlined in RAQMON Charter of the RMON Workgroup. The memo
[SIDDIQUI2] defines a Real-Time Application QOS Monitoring
(RAQMON) Framework that extends the RMON Framework to allow Real-time
Application QoS information as outlined by RAQMON Charter of the RMON
Workgroup. The memo [SIDDIQUI1] defines a portion of the Management
Information Base (MIB) for use with network management protocols in the
Internet community. The document proposes an extension to the Remote
Monitoring MIB [RFC2819] to accommodate RAQMON solution. Distribution of
this memo is unlimited.

NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail
readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
