Y.1540 on IP packet transfer performance parameters and New Annex A with Lab Evaluation Plan (https://datatracker.ietf.org/liaison/1632/) Body: IETF IPPM working group thanks ITU-T SG12 for your liaison describing results from your evaluation of IP Capacity and Latency Metrics and methods of measurement. The harmonization of these measurements is welcome in our industry. We have the following comments on the preliminary results, and the evaluation plan: After noting the efficacy of UDP measurements in your results, we can state that UDP transport is the basis for most IPPM measurement implementations, and IPPM's measurement protocols. When assessing IP Capacity and Latency, there should be no attempt to determine the technology involved in the path, such as AQM. The method should measure the path as a black box. The presence of packet-marking-sensitive technologies, such as Diff-serv queues add complexity to IP Capacity and Latency. There is not yet a metric that characterizes the BW-Delay product in the IPPM-literature. Live network testing may be affected by Network operator policy, it could change from the lab measurements - the test traffic is part of the background traffic. OTOH, the operator could be prioritizing test traffic, especially their own authorized testing. We also suggest to include QUIC-based measurements in your Lab evaluation, if possible. Where a model or post-processing needs to be applied to the measurements, this aspect must also be specified, especially for transport with multiple connections (averaging the connection performance). Some of the IPPM WG participants who indicated their interest in November 2019 have begun to share their comments informally, as planned. Please keep the IPPM WG informed of your progress, especially if there are ways in which IPPM WG participants assist further.
