Re: [ippm] Call for adoption: draft-geib-ippm-connectivity-monitoring

[[e-mail]]

Hi Al,

thanks, I'll try to incorporate your comments for the next version. I prefer constant bit-rate measurements, so I'll remove lambda.

I'll also have a closer look at the change point detection and add some text.

Regards,

Ruediger

Betreff: Re: [ippm] Call for adoption: draft-geib-ippm-connectivity-monitoring

Hi Tommy and Ian,

I'm writing to express some support for Rüdiger's draft:
    draft-geib-ippm-connectivity-monitoring

I would like to see the draft clarified in a few areas, concentrating on section 3.

Section 3, titled
"Singleton Definition for Type-P-SR-Path-Connectivity-and-Congestion"

It seems that this metric will need to represent both loss and delay to infer connectivity and congestion, starting in section 3.3.

In 3.2,
o  lambda, a rate in reciprocal seconds
and
o  DS, a constant time interval between two type-P packets
seem to specify the same stream parameter, except that lambda is usually associated with Poisson streams, and a constant time interval is for periodic streams.  Maybe both are possible, but not at the same time.

In 3.3.  Metric Units

   A sequence of consecutive time values.

There are still units missing (seconds for delay change from the average?), and loss count or loss ratio.  These two different dimensions need to be represented, and then connectivity and congestion need to be teased apart (both can cause loss).

In 3.4.  Definition,
It would be good to see  more details on the moving average, starting with a parameter in 3.2 that describes the window of the moving average, and an equation or reference for the "change point detection algorithm".

Al
