Just replying to this COMMENT above.

Here is a little bit of history.
RFC 6183, IP Flow Information Export (IPFIX) Mediation: Framework, 
specified a couple of terms. Those terms (and  "Intermediate Selection 
Process" was one of them) were generic terms to be used by the different 
RFCs: RFC 6235,
draft-ietf-ipfix-a9n-08, 
<http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-ipfix-a9n/>draft-ietf-ipfix-flow-selection-tech-16 
<http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-ipfix-flow-selection-tech/>, 
draft-ietf-ipfix-mediation-protocol-04 
<http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-ipfix-mediation-protocol/>
However, when developing draft-ietf-ipfix-flow-selection-tech-16, 
<http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-ipfix-flow-selection-tech/>the 
authors realized that the "Intermediate Selection Process" definition 
[RFC6183] was not suitable. Hence the redefinition into "Intermediate 
Flow Selection Process".

This was discussed recently on the IPFIX mailing list, and the 
conclusion was to add the section 4 "Difference between Intermediate 
Flow Selection Process and Intermediate Selection Process"

While the situation is not ideal, my advice would be to leave the 
situation as it is.

I let the authors respond to the rest.
Note: maybe you meant 6.1.2 in your next comment.

Regards, Benoit

COMMENT:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

The terms "Intermediate Flow Selection Process" and "Intermediate
Selection Process" are so similar that I had to read the glossary entry
for the former several times in order to catch the difference. If
possible, it would be better to use a different name to refer to this
process. I realize this is a central bit of terminology in this draft, so
the request may seem a bit extreme, but it looks like it's been newly
introduced in this particular draft, so it's not too late to do something
about it.   I'm not convinced that fixing it is worth the trouble, but I
raise the issue because it tripped me up; it will probably trip up other
new readers of the document.</pre>

In section 6.2.1, I assume that the flow key is substantially smaller
than the flow cache entry, but this is a bit surprising. I'm assuming the
flow cache entry is somehow a heavier-weight thing, but it's not obvious
what that extra weight is. I went looking for a definition of "flow
cache" and didn't find one in any of the referenced RFCs. It might be
helpful to have a glossary entry that briefly describes the flow cache.
Presumably it's just the set of all flow records; if so, the definition
of flow record in 5101 doesn't give me a basis for thinking that it's
much larger than a flow key. None of this is intended to imply that the
text is wrong; just that it might help to have a bit more exposition on
the topic.

6.2.2.1: what's a flow position?

Aside from these observations, which may or may not actually be helpful,
the document looks good—thanks for doing the work!

Greetings, all,

Following a previous suggestion to update  propose we modify the names =
and definitions of the initiatorOctets(231), responderOctets(232), =
initiatorPackets(298), and responderPackets(299) as follows, (1) to =
bring them in line with the naming of other IPFIX Information Elements, =
(2) to allow them to be used by RFC 5103-compliant biflow Exporting =
Processes, and (3) to ensure (especially in the case of 298 and 299) =
that the descriptions are interoperably implemented.

I think the proposed descriptions reflect the intent of the present =
descriptions, within the context of RFC 5103 terminology, and should =
therefore not have any impact on interoperability; I note that the =
description of IEs 298 and 299 are, however, not decipherable as =
written, so I may be taking some necessary liberty with my =
interpretation.


Element ID: 232
Name:       appOctetDeltaCount
Data Type:  unsigned64
Semantics:  deltaCounter
Description:

The number of octets, excluding IP header(s) and Layer 4 transport =
protocol header(s), observed for this Flow at the Observation Point =
since the previous report (if any).


Element ID: 233
Name:       reverseAppOctetDeltaCount
Data Type:  unsigned64
Semantics:  deltaCounter
Description:

The number of octets, excluding IP header(s) and Layer 4 transport =
protocol header(s), observed for the reverse direction of this Flow, as =
defined in RFC 5103, at the Observation Point since the previous report =
(if any). If present in a Flow Record along with appOctetDeltaCount, =
causes appOctetDeltaCount to refer to the forward direction of the Flow. =
If present in a Flow Record, implies that that Flow Record is exported =
with direction assigned by the initiator (as in section 5.1 of RFC =
5103), unless contradicted by a biflowDirection Information Element =
present in the Flow Record or otherwise applicable to the Flow Record's =
scope.


Element ID: 298
Name:       appPacketDeltaCount
Data Type:  unsigned64
Semantics:  deltaCounter
Description:

The number of packets containing at least one octet beyond the IP =
header(s) and Layer 4 transport protocol header(s), observed for this =
Flow at the Observation Point since the previous report (if any).


Element ID: 299
Name:       reverseAppPacketDeltaCount
Data Type:  unsigned64
Semantics:  deltaCounter
Description:

The number of packets containing at least one octet beyond the IP =
header(s) and Layer 4 transport protocol header(s), observed for the =
reverse direction of this Flow, as defined in RFC 5103, at the =
Observation Point since the previous report (if any). If present in a =
Flow Record along with appPacketDeltaCount, causes appPacketDeltaCount =
to refer to the forward direction of the Flow. If present in a Flow =
Record, implies that that Flow Record is exported with direction =
assigned by the initiator (as in section 5.1 of RFC 5103), unless =
contradicted by a biflowDirection Information Element present in the =
Flow Record or otherwise applicable to the Flow Record's scope.


Following discussion on the list, I intend to submit this proposed =
change to the IE-DOCTORS for review.

Thoughts?

Many thanks, best regards,

Brian=

Brian,

1. Some mistake in the numbering in your new definitions: you've written 
232 and 233 instead of 231 and 232.

2. What's the significance of "app" in these names? "Applicable"? 
"Application"? "Appearing"? "Appended"? "Approved"? "Appropriate"? 
"Approximate"? ...

P.

Hi Brian,

If you are looking for consistency I'd go with "layer7".  There are 
already 3 "layer2" IEs including 2 octet counts (layer2OctetDeltaCount 
and layer2OctetTotalCount).

Also the the table of values for classificationEngineId (101) all use L# 
or layer # in their descriptions.

-Andrew

Hi, Paul,

Indeed, decrement the numbers in the definition.

"app" is intended to abbreviate "application". Not a huge fan of this name, but I can't come up with anything more precise that isn't significantly longer. "layer7"? "overTransport"? "transported"? 

Regards,

Brian

Hi, Andrew.

Hm... Good point. Thanks.

(Pedantically: "everything under Layer 4" might also include layer 5 -- =
if you're of the opinion that HTTP is really a session layer nowadays -- =
but I think most everyone will understand what is meant.)

So I amend my proposal to:

Element ID: 231
Name:       layer7OctetDeltaCount
Data Type:  unsigned64
Semantics:  deltaCounter
Description:

The number of octets, excluding IP header(s) and Layer 4 transport =
protocol header(s), observed for this Flow at the Observation Point =
since the previous report (if any).

The number of octets, excluding IP header(s) and Layer 4 transport =
protocol header(s), observed for the reverse direction of this Flow, as =
defined in RFC 5103, at the Observation Point since the previous report =
(if any). If present in a Flow Record along with layer7OctetDeltaCount, =
causes layer7OctetDeltaCount to refer to the forward direction of the =
Flow. If present in a Flow Record, implies that that Flow Record is =
exported with direction assigned by the initiator (as in section 5.1 of =
RFC 5103), unless contradicted by a biflowDirection Information Element =
present in the Flow Record or otherwise applicable to the Flow Record's =
scope.


Element ID: 298
Name:       layer7PacketDeltaCount
Data Type:  unsigned64
Semantics:  deltaCounter
Description:

The number of packets containing at least one octet beyond the IP =
header(s) and Layer 4 transport protocol header(s), observed for this =
Flow at the Observation Point since the previous report (if any).


Element ID: 299
Name:       reverseLayer7PacketDeltaCount
Data Type:  unsigned64
Semantics:  deltaCounter
Description:

The number of packets containing at least one octet beyond the IP =
header(s) and Layer 4 transport protocol header(s), observed for the =
reverse direction of this Flow, as defined in RFC 5103, at the =
Observation Point since the previous report (if any). If present in a =

Hi all:

draft-ietf-ipfix-flow-selection-tech-16 is now in IESG Evaluation;
it currently has a blocking DISCUSS

Section 6.1 contains a compliance statement, which says
   "In order to be compliant with this document, at least the
    Property Match Filtering MUST be implemented."
The AD concerned asks whether we could remove this requirement.

This was triggered by a remark in my Shepherd statement for this draft,
which said
   "This draft raised IPR concerns, in the same manner as the PSAMP
   selection draft had done.  Nick Duffield (AT&T) commented that
   the AT&T IPR claim relates only to statistical sampling, and PSAMP
   handled this by saying "at least on of the sampling techniques
   must be implemented."
   In this draft, we have tightened that up a little by saying
   "a conforming implementation MUST implement at least the
   Property Match Filtering."
I realise now that the IPR in question was that relating to
draft-krishnan-opsawg-large-flow-load-balancing, which was discussed
on the IPFIX list back in Feb/Mar 2013; the issue that raised was
cleared by the company concerned making an IPR declaration.

That leaves us with the question about the compliance requirement.
The motivation for this remains the same as it was for RFC 5475,
"Sampling and Filtering Techniques for IP Packet Selection,"
the statement in section 6.1 simply refines it a little, and makes it
clear to implementors what's needed for a minimal conforming
implementation.

So now, I need some feedback from the WG.  Please send a note to
the list saying
"yes, keep the compliance statement in section 6.1" or
"no, delete the compliance statement in section 6.1.

Real soon now, please!

Cheers, Nevil

Hi Nevil,

"yes, keep the compliance statement in section 6.1".
I want to keep the consistency to makes it clear to implementors what's 
needed for a minimal conforming
implementation, and to be similar to RFC 5475

Benoit, Nevil, All,

Option 3, "yes and no".

A clear specification of the compliance criteria is a must.

However, with the current compliance statement an implementation of all 
the specified Flow Sampling techniques without Property Match Filtering, 
is not compliant. Similarly, a device which implements Hash-based Flow 
Filtering rather than Property Match Filtering is not compliant.

We can't predict what future device requirements will be or how the 
draft will be used. Therefore the choice of Property Match Filtering as 
the compliance criteria seems somewhat arbitrary. It may seem like an 
obvious choice today, but in future might turn out like the 640KB limit. 
We don't want this to be a decision we regret with hindsight as we 
struggle with an awkward implementation of Property Match 
Filteringsimply to claim compliance.

So I'd prefer the compliance statement to say, "In order to be compliant 
with this document, at least one of the Filtering or Sampling techniques 
MUST be implemented."
Or, "... at least one of the Intermediate Flow Selection Process 
Techniques specified in section 6 MUST be implemented".

P.

Brian,

The existing IANA definitions and cisco definitions of these fields are 
in terms of "layer 4". I believe it's wrong to rename them to "layer7".

There would be a difference between the "layer 4" and "layer 7" 
definitions if there's layer 6 encryption or EBCDIC/ASCII conversion.

These fields were requested by cisco; they're documented in Appendix A here:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/solutions_docs/avc/ios_xe3_8/avc_soln_guide_iosxe3_8_full.pdf

Although that doesn't give us ownership of these fields, if you change 
them then we'll no longer be compliant with the fields we requested :-(

P.

hi, Paul, all,

I have the same problem with naming them layer7, actually. They're _not_ =
"layer4", though, since they count octets above the layer 4 headers. I =
suppose we could call them layer5, but that would almost certainly =
confuse everyone. Whether it would be more or less confusing than the =
_current_ names, though, I'm not sure.

As specified, these four IEs that can never be unambiguously implemented =
by an RFC 5103 EP, since the presence of these IEs may or may not =
reverse the sense of forward and reverse direction. (There is a separate =
issue here, that 298 and 299 are presently so unclearly specified in my =
opinion as to be completely unimplementable. This will need to be fixed, =
but we can set that aside for the moment.) We certainly don't want to =
break existing implementations (any revision, per ie-doctors, must be =
interoperable; breaking existing implementations would not be).

I'd thought that the intent of these IEs was to implement something =
similar to what I'd proposed to change the descriptions to. This would =
appear not to be the case. Since we have an RFC 5103 EP, on which these =
IEs are not implementable, and we need to export the fields as specified =
in my proposal, I withdraw my request to consider the redefinition of =
these four IEs; we simply won't use them. However, I would like to hear =
the community's opinion on the utility of the following two _new_ =
Information Elements.


Element ID: TBA
Name:       layer7OctetDeltaCount
Data Type:  unsigned64
Semantics:  deltaCounter
Description:

The number of octets, excluding IP header(s) and Layer 4 transport =
protocol header(s), observed for this Flow at the Observation Point =
since the previous report (if any).


Element ID: TBA
Name:       layer7PacketDeltaCount
Data Type:  unsigned64
Semantics:  deltaCounter
Description:

The number of packets containing at least one octet beyond the IP =
header(s) and Layer 4 transport protocol header(s), observed for this =
Flow at the Observation Point since the previous report (if any).


(We intend to use 5103 as specified for the reverse directions thereof).

Many thanks, best regards,

Brian

Using "layer 7" in the name and "layer 4" in the definition leaves it 
unclear whether layer 6 should be included.

Yesterday I got to wondering what exactly a layer 4 packet is. Put 
another way, how often do we send packets which don't have any layer 4 
content? Now I'm wondering the same about layer 7 - ie, what sort of 
packets would - and more importantly _would not_ - be counted by 
layer7PacketDeltaCount ?

BTW, recall the Extended Field Specifier Format? How useful if all these 
IEs could be grouped under a single pair of "packetCount" and 
"octetCount" IEs with multiple extensions, eg 
packetCount.{layerN}.{delta|total}.

P.

Point. What's layer 6 in the IETF IP stack, though?

Let's back off from layering for a moment. How about =
"transportedOctetDeltaCount"?

The packet IE naming is harder though. "nonemptyPacketDeltaCount"?

content? Now I'm wondering the same about layer 7 - ie, what sort of =

All the time. TCP handshakes and pure ACKs, for one (these are the ones =
I care about). SCTP control chunks. =20

That'd be great. However, I'd like to implement these counters well =
before the complete revision of the Information Model implied by =
Extended Field Specifiers is complete.

Cheers,

Abstract:
   This document specifies the IP Flow Information Export (IPFIX)
   protocol that serves for transmitting Traffic Flow information over
   the network. In order to transmit Traffic Flow information from an
   Exporting Process to a Collecting Process, a common representation of
   flow data and a standard means of communicating them is required.
   This document describes how the IPFIX Data and Template Records are
   carried over a number of transport protocols from an IPFIX Exporting
   Process to an IPFIX Collecting Process. This document obsoletes RFC
   5101.

Abstract:
   Intermediate Flow Selection Process is the process of selecting a
   subset of Flows from all observed Flows.  The Intermediate Flow
   Selection Process may be located at an IPFIX Exporter, Collector, or
   within an IPFIX Mediator.  It reduces the effort of post-processing
   Flow data and transferring Flow Records.  This document describes
   motivations for using the Intermediate Flow Selection process and
   presents Intermediate Flow Selection techniques.  It provides an
   information model for configuring Intermediate Flow Selection Process
   techniques and discusses what information about an Intermediate Flow
   Selection Process should be exported.

Hi Selection Tech authors:

We really do have to get back to Pete with a clear consensus on this.

 From the few replies to my posting to the list on this, my proposal
on the consensus so far is to replace the sentence in section 6.1 as
follows:

OLD:  In order to be compliant with this document, at least the
       Property Match Filtering SHOULD be implemented.

NEW:  In order to be compliant with IPFIX, at least one of
       this document's flow filtering schemes MUST be implemented.

This would make it mirror the compliance statement in RFC 5475 (PSAMP
packet selection.

So now, please email the list to say "yes, the proposed NEW above
is OK," or to suggest something better.

Cheers, Nevil

Hi Pete:

Following up on your 'compliance statement' issue (now that we've
established that it wasn't raised by an IPR question), I asked the
draft authors and the IPFIX list for opinions on this

 From the replies to my posting to the list on this, the WG consensus
is that we do want to have c compliance statement.  Therefore we
now want to replace the sentence in section 6.1 as follows:

OLD:  In order to be compliant with this document, at least the
       Property Match Filtering SHOULD be implemented.

NEW:  In order to be compliant with IPFIX, at least one of
       this document's flow filtering schemes MUST be implemented.

This would make it mirror the compliance statement in RFC 5475 (PSAMP
packet selection.

Would that be OK with you, please?

Cheers, Nevil

Abstract:
   Intermediate Flow Selection Process is the process of selecting a
   subset of Flows from all observed Flows.  The Intermediate Flow
   Selection Process may be located at an IPFIX Exporter, Collector, or
   within an IPFIX Mediator.  It reduces the effort of post-processing
   Flow data and transferring Flow Records.  This document describes
   motivations for using the Intermediate Flow Selection process and
   presents Intermediate Flow Selection techniques.  It provides an
   information model for configuring Intermediate Flow Selection Process
   techniques and discusses what information about an Intermediate Flow
   Selection Process should be exported.
