Subject: [ipfix-info] OctetCount Information Elements

Dear all,

I'm just writing a little ipfix prototype implementation and found that the
definition of the exportedOctetTotalCount, droppedOctetTotalCount etc.
Information Elements is not clear to me. Does this number include protocol
headers, if yes which (L2, L3...), does it refer to the number of octets
transfered on the wire?? What does it really count?

Thanks in advance for the clarification,

Thomas
