[ipfix] RE: [ippm] traceroute as WG work item? IPFIX traceroute records

["STEPHAN Emile RD-CORE-LAN" <[e-mail]>]

Hi Juergen,

My thinking is that we might use IPFIX to export the traceroute results.


What about using 2 templates: one for the measure and another one for results?

This is compact and is very close to what describes Guido draft (draft-pohl-perpktinfo-02.txt). 

We need only to define a new Field Type named 'SampleID' (named PacketID in Guido document).

Emile

The I-D is still missing a data model, because there is no
consensus yet on the mailing list about whether to use an
XML-based data model or a more compact one.
Please find some pro and con arguments at
http://people.internet2.edu/~matt/IPPM/Meetings/ietf62/ippm-2005-03-07-traceroute.pdf

Thanks,
