        Updates:    RFC 2330

        I-D Tag:    draft-ietf-ippm-2330-ipv6-06.txt

        URL:        https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc8468

        DOI:        10.17487/RFC8468

This memo updates the IP Performance Metrics (IPPM) framework defined
by RFC 2330 with new considerations for measurement methodology and
testing.  It updates the definition of standard-formed packets to
include IPv6 packets, deprecates the definition of minimal IP packet,
and augments distinguishing aspects, referred to as Type-P, for test
packets in RFC 2330.  This memo identifies that IPv4-IPv6 coexistence
can challenge measurements within the scope of the IPPM framework.
Example use cases include, but are not limited to, IPv4-IPv6
translation, NAT, and protocol encapsulation.  IPv6 header
compression and use of IPv6 over Low-Power Wireless Area Networks
(6LoWPAN) are considered and excluded from the standard-formed packet
evaluation.

This document is a product of the IP Performance Measurement Working Group of the IETF.
