Re: [v6ops] new draft: draft-servin-v6ops-monitor-ds-ipv6

Hi,

I'd say collecting the current state-of-the-art and the operational practice in monitoring will be of great help, especially when it comes to the tricky inequalities you mention... I really hope to see a comprehensive collection of these detail, collected as you say from direct experiences across the WG and other fora.

Regarding the current contents, I'd like to ask you to include considerations for at least:

1) The usage of SDN (OpenFlow in particular) as an alternative technique, probably under 2.3

2) The implications of the usage of local addresses and privacy-protection address allocation techniques

And there is always the matter of cross-provider or federated monitoring, that I'd say is not that close even in v4 space, and that probably would deserve some discussion as well...

Be goode,
