sion<br>&gt;<br>&gt;<br>&gt; Marta, all,<br>&gt;<br>&gt; A few additional t=
houghts regarding your questions:<br>&gt;<br>&gt; 1) I would not expect tha=
t not following current naming convention hinders implementation of RFC 672=
8. On the other hand, if we change just the names of the identifiers, we lo=
se interoperability with older implementations that may exist.<br>&gt;<br>&=
gt; 2) I think that it is reasonable that destinationIPAddress is mandatory=
 because network management systems should be able to query the IP address =
to which an Exporting Process sends data. As Paul stated, RFC 6728 does not=
 say how the destination IP address is set.<br>&gt;<br>&gt; 3) SCTP is stil=
l a mandatory transport for a compliant implementation of an IPFIX device, =
not a feature. See: <a href=3D"https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=

ntifiers are camel case (e.g., destinationAddress instead of destination-ad=
dress). &nbsp;Are there any ongoing efforts to update RFC 6728 to meet the =
latest best practices?<br>&gt; Not as far as I know.<br>&gt;<br>&gt; Regard=
s, Benoit<br>&gt;<br>&gt;<br>&gt; &nbsp; 1.<br>&gt;<br>&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp;Id=
entifiers SHOULD follow a consistent naming pattern throughout the<br>&gt; =
&nbsp; &nbsp;module. &nbsp;Only lower-case letters, numbers, and dashes SHO=
ULD be used<br>&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp;in identifier names. &nbsp;Upper-case char=
acters and the underscore<br>&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp;character MAY be used if the=
 identifier represents a well-known value<br>&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp;that uses th=
ese characters.<br>&gt;<br>&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp;Identifiers SHOULD include com=
plete words and/or well-known acronyms<br>&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp;or abbreviation=
s. &nbsp;Child nodes within a container or list SHOULD NOT<br>&gt; &nbsp; &=
nbsp;replicate the parent identifier. &nbsp;YANG identifiers are hierarchic=
al<br>&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp;and are only meant to be unique within the the set =
of sibling nodes<br>&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp;defined in the same module namespace.=
<br>&gt;<br>&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp;It is permissible to use common identifiers s=
uch as "name" or "id" in<br>&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp;data definition statements, e=
specially if these data nodes share a<br>&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp;common data type=
.<br>&gt;<br>&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp;Identifiers SHOULD NOT carry any special sem=
antics that identify data<br>&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp;modelling properties. &nbsp;=
Only YANG statements and YANG extension<br>&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp;statements are=
 designed to convey machine readable data modelling<br>&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp;pr=
operties. &nbsp;For example, naming an object "config" or "state" does<br>&=
gt; &nbsp; &nbsp;not change whether it is configuration data or state data.=
 &nbsp;Only<br>&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp;defined YANG statements or YANG extension =
statements can be used to<br>&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp;assign semantics in a machin=
e readable format in YANG.<br>&gt;<br>&gt;<br>&gt; &nbsp; 1. &nbsp;I genera=
ted the RFC 6728 yang tree (see attached). &nbsp;The tcp and udp exporting =
processes support a destinationIPAddress (line 400, 455) which is mandatory=
. &nbsp;The type is inet:ip-address.<br>&gt;<br>&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;* =
&nbsp; A collector may be doing load balancing. &nbsp;Rather than managing =
ip-addresses, the collector may be using DNS (an exporter could resolve fro=
m the domain name where the collector is located).<br>&gt;<br>&gt; @PJ: Loa=
d balancing and DNS are independent. Load balancing IPFIX is probably a bad=
 idea since templates need to be available on all collectors, and out of st=
ep sequence numbers in the data records would cause spurious reports of los=
t data. If DNS is used to obtain the collector's address, arguably it shoul=
d be a one-time lookup rather than incurring a DNS lookup per export packet=
.<br>&gt;<br>&gt;<br>&gt;<br>&gt; &nbsp; 1.<br>&gt;<br>&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp; &=
nbsp;*<br>&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;* &nbsp; The collector address may be le=
arnt via other methods (e.g., through DHCP options)<br>&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp; &=
nbsp;* &nbsp; A choice statement to select what method to use seems more ap=
propriate than what is presently in RFC 6728. &nbsp;For example (use some s=
horthand)<br>&gt;<br>&gt; choice destination-method{<br>&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp; =
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; case destination-address{<br>&gt;=

owever I can=E2=80=99t augment to ietf-ipfix because destinationIPAddress i=
s mandatory. &nbsp;Can the group suggest methods to (a) change the destinat=
ionIPAddress type and (b) allow a choice?<br>&gt;<br>&gt; @PJ: The selectio=
n could also be done out of band so the exporter need not know how the addr=
ess is determined. eg a configuration system could determine the address by=
 any of these methods or otherwise, and impose that address using the curre=
nt model.<br>&gt;<br>&gt;<br>&gt;<br>&gt; &nbsp; 1. &nbsp;RFC 6728 mandates=
 SCTP transport. &nbsp;I understand the logic behind this (IETF prefers use=
 of SCTP). &nbsp;There are situations where sctp is unnecessary and not sup=
ported (e.g., point to point connection). &nbsp;During netconf negotiations=
 you can announce your feature set (currently sctptransport is not a featur=
e). &nbsp;Is there ongoing work in updating RFC 6728 to include sctptranspo=
rt as a feature (so that the device can announce whether or not it supports=
 sctptransport)?<br>&gt;<br>&gt; @PJ Same answer as point (2) above, ie is =
this necessary and useful?<br>&gt;<br>&gt; P.<br>&gt;<br>&gt;<br>&gt;<br>&g=
