One thing that is key to the metric "NOT" producing false positive results =
(negative types), is the ability of the MA to know the "service state" of t=
he broadband line.

  I haven't heard this discussion so I'll contribute -

There are multiple types of ISP service "states" that dynamically change de=
pending upon the terms of service.

Some of the more common ones -

1) Exceeding a cap results in a Bandwidth profile decrease
	- Many wireless carriers / SAT. providers have these in place (read their =
websites).
	Some are "gentle" enforcements and may not be implemented right at the thr=
eshold crossing, others are hard coded.

	Complications to this
	- Some ISP's have a buyout (pay to increase your cap and then you get the =
full speed back, others don't but it rests on your billing cycle, or possib=
ly at the end of the month. =20

   Either way

1) Fair "service tests" are conducted against the terms of service
	-  Provided the "terms of service" are made available / publically know ..=
. they shouldn't be part of performance testing.
=09

So the problem gets to - How does a MA know what the bandwidth state the li=
ne is currently based on the "terms of service".
   =20
Presumption - If we want this to scale, and have low cost then we can't ass=
ume manual anything for this "learning" of state.

Recommendation - the BBF liaison had a proposal to share that "state" infor=
mation with the MA, which seems to be the easiest answer.
			Systemically build a function into the MA that "asks" what the line stat=
e information is.

	To do this we'd have to=20
	1) add that step to the MA doing a test
	2) Choose what protocols to use to have the MA ask via the home network wh=
at the service state is to conduct the test.
		(current speed, service state, .... )

Cheers,
Mike

Michael,

I think this may depend on who's operating the measurement system.

For an operator-controlled measurement system, then they should know what c=
ontract the BB user is on and whether they're currently being capped. In th=
e light of this they can work out what tests they want done. The controller=
 instructs the MA. I'm not sure how up-to-date the Controller can be kept i=
nformed about dynamic capping (this info is going via OAM, which isn't very=
 dynamic).
=20
For a regulator-controlled measurement system, there is likely to be some o=
ff-line way that the ISP tells the regulator what contract the BB user is o=
n - so that they can run sensible tests. After results collection, perhaps =
the ISP could tell the regulator that user y had exceeded their cap on Jan =
21st (so treat those results with caution). I think defining a real-time in=
terface about caps is unlikely. Partly technical (dynamic info, many differ=
ent capping approaches) and partly commercial.

For an end-user controlled measurement system, I think it would be quite us=
eful for the end user (& their MA) to be able to confirm what contract they=
 are on. Again I think defining a real-time interface about caps is difficu=
lt. I think it's something some ISPs might find it useful to tell a subscri=
ber (eg via an email or webpage) but doubtful about standards or about real=
 time (more likely a warning before it starts and, after a time lag, inform=
ing them it's happening or happened)

So, rather than dynamically informing the MA about capping, I'd take a diff=
erent approach. If, for a particular test, it really matters to understand =
about capping, then there should be a preliminary part of the test where it=
 sends some probe traffic in order to assess this.=20

Best wishes
phil

Mobile operators currently provide traffic volume vs. data cap reporting to=
 subscribers in "near-real time" - that is, current to within about the las=
t 24 hours. So it seems like a similar capability should be feasible with r=
egard to service state for lmap. I think it's a valid question whether that=
 data can be made real time, and whether anything less is actionable by the=
 MA.

ff-line way that the ISP tells the regulator what contract the BB user is o=
n - so that they can run sensible tests. After results collection, perhaps =
the ISP could tell the regulator that user y had exceeded their cap on Jan =
21st (so treat those results with caution). I think defining a real-time in=
terface about caps is unlikely. Partly technical (dynamic info, many differ=
ent capping approaches) and partly commercial.

For an end-user controlled measurement system, I think it would be quite us=
eful for the end user (& their MA) to be able to confirm what contract they=
 are on. Again I think defining a real-time interface about caps is difficu=
lt. I think it's something some ISPs might find it useful to tell a subscri=
ber (eg via an email or webpage) but doubtful about standards or about real=
 time (more likely a warning before it starts and, after a time lag, inform=
ing them it's happening or happened)

So, rather than dynamically informing the MA about capping, I'd take a diff=
erent approach. If, for a particular test, it really matters to understand =
about capping, then there should be a preliminary part of the test where it=
 sends some probe traffic in order to assess this.=20

Service Caps can be an issue.   Since no one has a crystal ball
regarding whether a subscriber will operate close to the service cap,
and since it would not be appropriate for a subscriber to be charged for
a measurement test that they did not request, one possibility is that
when the MA registers with the Measurement Controller, information
regarding the existence of a Service Cap is provided.  If there is a
service cap, then the Measurement Controller simply does not schedule
any bandwidth/throughput tests with that MA. 

If  the service provider that owns the MA runs the test, then I agree
that the service provider can meter their own test and adjust billing to
make the subscriber whole.

If a third party must run a bandwidth/throughput test on an MA with a
Service Cap, then somehow there needs to be a mechanism to meter the
test and charge the third party for their usage of the subscriber's
allocation.  Obviously this would be much more complex.

Another possibility is that the third-party could negotiate with the
service provider increase the service cap beyond what the customer has
subscribed to so that any tests that are run would not eat into the
amount of bandwidth that the customer contracted for with the service
provider.

However it is done, we need to ensure that the subscriber is whole.

The key point I had in mind was that the test result really needs to have t=
he "service state" information in the actual result to make this truly scal=
able.

Simple math wise

In a single ISP per speed tier I would assume (and they have many speed tie=
rs)

10k lines
12 measurements a day (minimum required granularity that lets one see a pea=
k hour)
30 days per month.

Yields -  360k test results.... makes a very large spreadsheet...=20

   So scalable for any LMAP test IMHO means having sort-able key fields in =
the test result.

Maybe a really, really small ISP could do a manual processes but if you are=
 doing this in scale per market you'd have to hire a person to do that.
So I don't like added costs on my ISP line - I'll vote for trying to kept t=
his cheap vs. doing to make our jobs a bit easier by not addressing it.

Phil,

   I think the BBF guys felt the MA should do a Pull on the ISP system vs. =
the other way around.

I would agree with that approach.


I'm also finding out that there are many more types of service "terms" out =
there than I thought - beyond caps I remember Matt Mathis saying that Malwa=
re could impact line performance (part of the line in use all the time), an=
d things like failure to pay (yes I have a teenager) ends up placing you in=
 a walled garden or changes your bandwidth profile. =20

  So there are other "line states" out there that we probably don't know ab=
out in an ISP terms of service.

So - On the take the high road side, a customer having more information abo=
ut their line / service is always good....  so making this poll-able from t=
he customer end for a MA that may or may not be and ISP MA sounds like a wi=
n-win-win...

Best Regards,
Mike

Subject: RE: LMAP detection of "BB line service state"=20

Michael,

I think this may depend on who's operating the measurement system.

For an operator-controlled measurement system, then they should know what c=
ontract the BB user is on and whether they're currently being capped. In th=
e light of this they can work out what tests they want done. The controller=
 instructs the MA. I'm not sure how up-to-date the Controller can be kept i=
nformed about dynamic capping (this info is going via OAM, which isn't very=
 dynamic).
=20
For a regulator-controlled measurement system, there is likely to be some o=
ff-line way that the ISP tells the regulator what contract the BB user is o=
n - so that they can run sensible tests. After results collection, perhaps =
the ISP could tell the regulator that user y had exceeded their cap on Jan =
21st (so treat those results with caution). I think defining a real-time in=
terface about caps is unlikely. Partly technical (dynamic info, many differ=
ent capping approaches) and partly commercial.

For an end-user controlled measurement system, I think it would be quite us=
eful for the end user (& their MA) to be able to confirm what contract they=
 are on. Again I think defining a real-time interface about caps is difficu=
lt. I think it's something some ISPs might find it useful to tell a subscri=
ber (eg via an email or webpage) but doubtful about standards or about real=
 time (more likely a warning before it starts and, after a time lag, inform=
ing them it's happening or happened)

So, rather than dynamically informing the MA about capping, I'd take a diff=
erent approach. If, for a particular test, it really matters to understand =
about capping, then there should be a preliminary part of the test where it=
 sends some probe traffic in order to assess this.=20

Best wishes
phil

I think the key point was brought up by Charles - any solution that reports=
 after the fact that a subscriber's cap was exceeded due to traffic added b=
y a test represents a failure condition. The subscriber cannot be disadvant=
aged by testing conducted by either the operator or a third party.=20

As Charles also pointed out, there are multiple ways to prevent this. Some =
are contractual, not technical (e.g., operator and third party agree to inc=
rease data cap by the planned volume of test traffic + margin).

The key point I had in mind was that the test result really needs to have t=
he "service state" information in the actual result to make this truly scal=
able.

Simple math wise

In a single ISP per speed tier I would assume (and they have many speed tie=
rs)

10k lines
12 measurements a day (minimum required granularity that lets one see a pea=
k hour)
30 days per month.

Yields -  360k test results.... makes a very large spreadsheet...=20

   So scalable for any LMAP test IMHO means having sort-able key fields in =
the test result.

Maybe a really, really small ISP could do a manual processes but if you are=
 doing this in scale per market you'd have to hire a person to do that.
So I don't like added costs on my ISP line - I'll vote for trying to kept t=
his cheap vs. doing to make our jobs a bit easier by not addressing it.

Service Caps can be an issue.   Since no one has a crystal ball
regarding whether a subscriber will operate close to the service cap, and s=
ince it would not be appropriate for a subscriber to be charged for a measu=
rement test that they did not request, one possibility is that when the MA =
registers with the Measurement Controller, information regarding the existe=
nce of a Service Cap is provided.  If there is a service cap, then the Meas=
urement Controller simply does not schedule any bandwidth/throughput tests =
with that MA.=20

If  the service provider that owns the MA runs the test, then I agree that =
the service provider can meter their own test and adjust billing to make th=
e subscriber whole.

If a third party must run a bandwidth/throughput test on an MA with a Servi=
ce Cap, then somehow there needs to be a mechanism to meter the test and ch=
arge the third party for their usage of the subscriber's allocation.  Obvio=
usly this would be much more complex.

Another possibility is that the third-party could negotiate with the servic=
e provider increase the service cap beyond what the customer has subscribed=
 to so that any tests that are run would not eat into the amount of bandwid=
th that the customer contracted for with the service provider.

However it is done, we need to ensure that the subscriber is whole.

These are part of PRE and POST processing of the measurement task and
data and MA does not need to know these details to perform measurements
in my opinion. The task will be allocated based on the contract and the
results would be matched against any contractual detail. =20

I think the key point was brought up by Charles - any solution that
reports after the fact that a subscriber's cap was exceeded due to
traffic added by a test represents a failure condition. The subscriber
cannot be disadvantaged by testing conducted by either the operator or a
third party.=20

As Charles also pointed out, there are multiple ways to prevent this.
Some are contractual, not technical (e.g., operator and third party
agree to increase data cap by the planned volume of test traffic +
margin).

The key point I had in mind was that the test result really needs to
have the "service state" information in the actual result to make this
truly scalable.

Simple math wise

In a single ISP per speed tier I would assume (and they have many speed
tiers)

10k lines
12 measurements a day (minimum required granularity that lets one see a
peak hour)
30 days per month.

Yields -  360k test results.... makes a very large spreadsheet...=20

   So scalable for any LMAP test IMHO means having sort-able key fields
in the test result.

Maybe a really, really small ISP could do a manual processes but if you
are doing this in scale per market you'd have to hire a person to do
that.
So I don't like added costs on my ISP line - I'll vote for trying to
kept this cheap vs. doing to make our jobs a bit easier by not
addressing it.

Subject: Re: LMAP detection of "BB line service state"

Service Caps can be an issue.   Since no one has a crystal ball
regarding whether a subscriber will operate close to the service cap,
and since it would not be appropriate for a subscriber to be charged for
a measurement test that they did not request, one possibility is that
when the MA registers with the Measurement Controller, information
regarding the existence of a Service Cap is provided.  If there is a
service cap, then the Measurement Controller simply does not schedule
any bandwidth/throughput tests with that MA.=20

If  the service provider that owns the MA runs the test, then I agree
that the service provider can meter their own test and adjust billing to
make the subscriber whole.

If a third party must run a bandwidth/throughput test on an MA with a
Service Cap, then somehow there needs to be a mechanism to meter the
test and charge the third party for their usage of the subscriber's
allocation.  Obviously this would be much more complex.

Another possibility is that the third-party could negotiate with the
service provider increase the service cap beyond what the customer has
subscribed to so that any tests that are run would not eat into the
amount of bandwidth that the customer contracted for with the service
provider.

However it is done, we need to ensure that the subscriber is whole.

Keep in mind beside testing -

   It's been suggested that the API or website to find out what you service=
 state is should be made global as a standard so people don't have to call =
their ISP to find out what is going on....


Do you like your ISP's music on hold feature.... ?

Some are contractual, not technical (e.g., operator and third party agree t=
o increase data cap by the planned volume of test traffic + margin).

The key point I had in mind was that the test result really needs to have t=
he "service state" information in the actual result to make this truly scal=
able.

Simple math wise

In a single ISP per speed tier I would assume (and they have many speed
tiers)

10k lines
12 measurements a day (minimum required granularity that lets one see a pea=
k hour)
30 days per month.

Yields -  360k test results.... makes a very large spreadsheet...=20

   So scalable for any LMAP test IMHO means having sort-able key fields in =
the test result.

Maybe a really, really small ISP could do a manual processes but if you are=
 doing this in scale per market you'd have to hire a person to do that.
So I don't like added costs on my ISP line - I'll vote for trying to kept t=
his cheap vs. doing to make our jobs a bit easier by not addressing it.

Service Caps can be an issue.   Since no one has a crystal ball
regarding whether a subscriber will operate close to the service cap, and s=
ince it would not be appropriate for a subscriber to be charged for a measu=
rement test that they did not request, one possibility is that when the MA =
registers with the Measurement Controller, information regarding the existe=
nce of a Service Cap is provided.  If there is a service cap, then the Meas=
urement Controller simply does not schedule any bandwidth/throughput tests =
with that MA.=20

If  the service provider that owns the MA runs the test, then I agree that =
the service provider can meter their own test and adjust billing to make th=
e subscriber whole.

If a third party must run a bandwidth/throughput test on an MA with a Servi=
ce Cap, then somehow there needs to be a mechanism to meter the test and ch=
arge the third party for their usage of the subscriber's allocation.  Obvio=
usly this would be much more complex.

Another possibility is that the third-party could negotiate with the servic=
e provider increase the service cap beyond what the customer has subscribed=
 to so that any tests that are run would not eat into the amount of bandwid=
th that the customer contracted for with the service provider.

However it is done, we need to ensure that the subscriber is whole.

Abstract:
   Measuring broadband service on a large scale requires a description
   of the logical architecture and standardisation of the key protocols
   that coordinate interactions between the components.  The document
   presents an overall framework for large-scale measurements.  It also
   defines terminology for LMAP (large-scale measurement platforms).

We keep coming back to this, over and over again. My opinion on dealing wit=
h this hasn't changed since the last time we discussed it.

There are several components to this:
1. Information model to include in a report all aspects of the environment =
a test was conducted under. This includes every little aspect of the access=
 service (its states, its configuration, etc.) that we can dream of. I've b=
een trying to do this dreaming of access service aspects in BBF and not IET=
F, because (IMO) the competency to understand these aspects of access servi=
ce exist much more in BBF than in IETF. That's why in my last contribution =
to BBF, I greatly expanded this list in the current BBF draft. My hope is t=
hat we can liaise that draft to IETF soon and suggest that lmap include the=
se aspects in their data model, as info that can be included when reporting=
 measurement results. But I don't think that IETF is the right place to arg=
ue about what all the right aspects are. Like I said, I think the competenc=
y to characterize access services exists more in BBF.

2. Architectural framework for how to get the info to wherever it needs to =
go. We've discussed (and I thought agreed) that there are various ways this=
 can be architected. As Phil described, some ISPs might choose to do send t=
he data from one of their backend systems to another. Or from their backend=
 systems to regulator or 3rd party systems. I thought we had agreed that th=
is was a valid approach that is allowed but not mandated. I also thought we=
 agreed that lmap (and BBF) will provide no guidance on how to do this (it'=
s out-of-scope for lmap). We also discussed that some ISPs might choose to =
send this info to their managed device, through the management interface. A=
gain, this would be allowed but not mandated. The management interface is o=
ut-of-scope for lmap. I'm quite sure we agreed on that. But in BBF we have =
a management protocol called TR-069 whose data model we know how to expand =
to include the ability to supply this info to an RG. OMA-DM could do the sa=
me thing for devices managed through the OMA-DM protocol. But all of this i=
s outside the scope of IETF, and outside IETF's sphere of influence. So dis=
cussing this sort of stuff in IETF (where the management interface for lmap=
 has been stated to be out-of-scope) is a waste of time. The discussion to =
expand the data models for these protocols needs to happen in BBF and OMA-D=
M.

3. Getting the info to devices not managed by the ISP and where there will =
be no backend system interfaces. I'm still trying to get around to that con=
tribution to homenet for using DNS-SD and mDNS to get info from an ISP-mana=
ged device to another device in the home network. But homenet isn't lmap. O=
f course, this would only help where there exists an ISP-managed device in =
the home network that can be supplied the info by some mechanism like TR-06=
9 or OMA-DM. It does nothing for the case where no ISP-managed device exist=
s in the home network. There are ways to do this, but I thought we'd agreed=
 that we weren't going to try to tackle "standardizing" or creating a super=
-simple solution for that use case right now, because we have enough on our=
 plates.

Which leads me right back to where I was before, regarding my personal to-d=
o list:
1. Shore up service attributes in BBF
2. Get the BBF work liaised to IETF and try to get the service attributes i=
ncluded as (optional) "report" elements in the lmap information model. [The=
y are optional because some ISPs might do this association in the backend. =
They need to be in the report part of the information model because some IS=
Ps might want to send the info to the MA (using the out-of-scope management=
 protocol) for attachment to the reported data.]
3. Do the homenet contribution for DNS-SD / mDNS.
4. Get the service attributes in the TR-069 data model both as info to be i=
ncluded with reported data, and as info that can be provided to the managed=
 device to accomplish this association. [OMA-DM is not on my personal to-do=
 list.]

So Mike and others: What exactly are you wanting from lmap right now? Do yo=
u want to move the discussion regarding defining service attributes to IETF=
 and out of BBF? Do you want to try to put the management protocol and inte=
rface back in scope in lmap? Do you want lmap to work on this DNS-SD/mDNS t=
hing that I think belongs in homenet and that really needs to have the cont=
ribution written describing it (and I'm really trying to get to it for Lond=
on)? Do you want to forbid ISPs from being allowed to send this info around=
 using their backend systems? Do you want to try to create a standardized s=
olution for the case where there is no ISP-managed device in the home netwo=
rk?  I'm really not understanding the reason for bringing this up in lmap r=
ight now.

I just sent a much longer message, but I'll send an excerpt to respond to t=
his.=20
As I mentioned in the other email, I don't think lmap (IETF) is the right p=
lace to discuss defining service attributes.
I agree that a website is possible for providing this info. I don't think l=
map is the right place to discuss this. I think it's out-of-scope for lmap.=
 I think that once the service attributes are defined (and I want to do thi=
s in BBF where competency exists for understanding service attributes), and=
 the xml for providing this info via TR-059 has been specified, and the xml=
 for that homenet contribution that I keep meaning to get to exists, that p=
osting this xml on a website is so simple that I don't need lmap to tell me=
 how. Once xml of service attributes is published somewhere, I know exactly=
 how to create a website that people can log in to or have their MA device =
log into to read the xml. I don't need lmap to do anything with this. I nee=
d lmap to stick to what they've already chartered themselves to do.

Mike, I have no clue what specifically it is that you are wanting lmap to d=
o at this time. You're aware of the work we're doing in BBF. And I recently=
 put a lot of effort into expanding the service attribute section in WT-304=
. Maybe you could provide comments against that, in BBF. I've said I want t=
o do a homenet contribution to have a DNS-SD / mDNS way to get service attr=
ibutes from an ISP-managed device in the home network to some other device =
in the home network. But sending emails to lmap isn't going to make my cont=
ribution to homenet happen any quicker.

F and out of BBF? Do you want to try to put the management protocol and int=

   I would like the interface approach.

Why - it's future proof, and by this I mean "cloud proof," or more correctl=
y Cloud Framework aligned. (aka it aligns with NFV frameworks)
	 What most people don't realize about Cloud is that it's a framework - NOT=
 an architecture.

Cloud requires a Common information model about infrastructure - like a API=
 at a location -
	So if we identify some interface when Cloud comes along it can be identifi=
ed as part of the Infrastructure Layer at that location (the interface / AP=
I that is).

But then again I don't think there is a right now given this discussion has=
 been going on for almost a year :)

Subject: RE: LMAP detection of "BB line service state"

We keep coming back to this, over and over again. My opinion on dealing wit=
h this hasn't changed since the last time we discussed it.

There are several components to this:
1. Information model to include in a report all aspects of the environment =
a test was conducted under. This includes every little aspect of the access=
 service (its states, its configuration, etc.) that we can dream of. I've b=
een trying to do this dreaming of access service aspects in BBF and not IET=
F, because (IMO) the competency to understand these aspects of access servi=
ce exist much more in BBF than in IETF. That's why in my last contribution =
to BBF, I greatly expanded this list in the current BBF draft. My hope is t=
hat we can liaise that draft to IETF soon and suggest that lmap include the=
se aspects in their data model, as info that can be included when reporting=
 measurement results. But I don't think that IETF is the right place to arg=
ue about what all the right aspects are. Like I said, I think the competenc=
y to characterize access services exists more in BBF.

2. Architectural framework for how to get the info to wherever it needs to =
go. We've discussed (and I thought agreed) that there are various ways this=
 can be architected. As Phil described, some ISPs might choose to do send t=
he data from one of their backend systems to another. Or from their backend=
 systems to regulator or 3rd party systems. I thought we had agreed that th=
is was a valid approach that is allowed but not mandated. I also thought we=
 agreed that lmap (and BBF) will provide no guidance on how to do this (it'=
s out-of-scope for lmap). We also discussed that some ISPs might choose to =
send this info to their managed device, through the management interface. A=
gain, this would be allowed but not mandated. The management interface is o=
ut-of-scope for lmap. I'm quite sure we agreed on that. But in BBF we have =
a management protocol called TR-069 whose data model we know how to expand =
to include the ability to supply this info to an RG. OMA-DM could do the sa=
me thing for devices managed through the OMA-DM protocol. But all of this i=
s outside the scope of IETF, and outside IETF's sphere of influence. So dis=
cussing this sort of stuff in IETF (where the management interface for lmap=
 has been stated to be out-of-scope) is a waste of time. The discussion to =
expand the data models for these protocols needs to happen in BBF and OMA-D=
M.

3. Getting the info to devices not managed by the ISP and where there will =
be no backend system interfaces. I'm still trying to get around to that con=
tribution to homenet for using DNS-SD and mDNS to get info from an ISP-mana=
ged device to another device in the home network. But homenet isn't lmap. O=
f course, this would only help where there exists an ISP-managed device in =
the home network that can be supplied the info by some mechanism like TR-06=
9 or OMA-DM. It does nothing for the case where no ISP-managed device exist=
s in the home network. There are ways to do this, but I thought we'd agreed=
 that we weren't going to try to tackle "standardizing" or creating a super=
-simple solution for that use case right now, because we have enough on our=
 plates.

Which leads me right back to where I was before, regarding my personal to-d=
o list:
1. Shore up service attributes in BBF
2. Get the BBF work liaised to IETF and try to get the service attributes i=
ncluded as (optional) "report" elements in the lmap information model. [The=
y are optional because some ISPs might do this association in the backend. =
They need to be in the report part of the information model because some IS=
Ps might want to send the info to the MA (using the out-of-scope management=
 protocol) for attachment to the reported data.] 3. Do the homenet contribu=
tion for DNS-SD / mDNS.
4. Get the service attributes in the TR-069 data model both as info to be i=
ncluded with reported data, and as info that can be provided to the managed=
 device to accomplish this association. [OMA-DM is not on my personal to-do=
 list.]

So Mike and others: What exactly are you wanting from lmap right now? Do yo=
u want to move the discussion regarding defining service attributes to IETF=
 and out of BBF? Do you want to try to put the management protocol and inte=
rface back in scope in lmap? Do you want lmap to work on this DNS-SD/mDNS t=
hing that I think belongs in homenet and that really needs to have the cont=
ribution written describing it (and I'm really trying to get to it for Lond=
on)? Do you want to forbid ISPs from being allowed to send this info around=
 using their backend systems? Do you want to try to create a standardized s=
olution for the case where there is no ISP-managed device in the home netwo=
rk?  I'm really not understanding the reason for bringing this up in lmap r=
ight now.

Phil et al,

Overall I think the document is coming together nicely. I have 3 comments
after reading the latest version with chair hat removed:

Section 5.1 - It is not clear what role and scope the Initial Controller
plays. Is this a new device type/function - does it need to be described
somewhere other than a cursory glance that is presented here - or does
this represent a device that is part of the bootstrap operation that is
out of scope? It is not very clear here. Maybe rename to Bootstrap
Controller instead?

Section 5.2.1 & 5.3 These sections seem to contradict each other slightly.
Suppression seems to imply that the Controller is capable of actively
managing the MA. This includes the challenges stated in Section 6.2.2. I
am wondering if we should state optional or if required contingent on
transport protocol operation? Section 5.3 then goes on to say that the MA
acts autonomously once it receives the Measurement and Report Schedules
from the Controller. This sentence seems to contradict 5.2.1 operation.

Section 6.2 - "A single site (home, branch office etc.) that is
participating in a measurement could make use of one or multiple
Measurement Agents in a single measurement."
This concept needs more details if it is going to be included I believe.
How does a measurement task employ multiple MAs for a single test? Which
MA is responsible for reporting the results? Is there some kind of
master/slave function implied here or is Group-ID tie these devices
together? Would all the MAs participating in this test group need to be
associated with the same controller and does that controller need to be
aware of the group? Does the Collector need to be aware of the test group
as well?


Thanks,

Jason

I think you're right that this section isn't very clear.=20
To my mind, we're simply trying to say that the bootstrap process isn't one=
 we're going to define but it needs to get the MA-id, maybe a group-id and =
details of the various channels. And here are some options about how to get=
 the info on the MA. i think it would be better to scrap the picture - as i=
t will be read as implying we're defining things that we aren't.

One other possibility that we should mention:
The bootstrapping information might be configured on the MA.=20
(Marcelo mentioned this during our editing, sorry I forgot to include it)=20

You're right that the MA "acts autonomously" should have a supplement "unti=
l it gets a new Instruction (including perhaps an Instruction about Measure=
ment Suppression)"=20

I don't think suppression should be optional (to implement). It seems a ver=
y useful capability.=20

I agree that if the MA is behind a NAT, then that presents issues for how l=
map operates over the transport protocol - but I don't think they're differ=
ent for suppression & the ordinary instruction.=20

>=20

I think that's a mistake. It shouldn't mention the possibility of multiple =
MAs.=20
If I remember a discussion quite a while ago, we agreed that if you want a =
multi agent test, then it would be up to you to define two Measurement Task=
s and schedule them at the same time - but that wouldn't be a concern of lm=
ap.

Thanks!

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts director=
ies.
 This draft is a work item of the Large-Scale Measurement of Broadband Perf=
ormance Working Group of the IETF.

        Title           : Large-Scale Broadband Measurement Use Cases
        Authors         : Marc Linsner
                          Philip Eardley
                          Trevor Burbridge
                          Frode Sorensen
	Filename        : draft-ietf-lmap-use-cases-02.txt
	Pages           : 16
	Date            : 2014-01-24

Abstract:
   Measuring broadband performance on a large scale is important for
   network diagnostics by providers and users, as well as for public
   policy.  To conduct such measurements, user networks gather data
   instructed by a measurement controller, and then upload the
   measurement results to a designated measurement server. Understanding
   the various scenarios and users of measuring broadband performance is
   essential to development of the framework, information model and
   protocol.  The details of the measurement metrics themselves are
   beyond the scope of this document.

We updated the flow of the draft, pulled conclusions for each use case
into a single section.  More alignment to the framework draft.  And
handled comments to the authors both from the list and privately.

Please review and sent comments to the list.

Thanks,

Marc, Philip, Trevor, Frode

>   Measuring broadband performance on a large scale is important for

>   policy.  To conduct such measurements, user networks gather data
>   instructed by a measurement controller, and then upload the

Phil,

I am in the process of reviewing the draft.  I like how many things have
been improved.  Thanks for the good work.

That said, I need some clarity of certain terms and how they relate to
each other, because I am getting confused as I read through the draft.

The terms I am concerned about are:

  * Registry
  * Metric
  * Measurement Task
  * Measurement Method


It appears that Measurement Task and Measurement Method are sometimes
used synonymously, and sometimes they appear to be very different. 
Sometimes a Measurement Method appears to be a Metric with its
associated parameters not populated.  Sometimes Measurement Method seems
to refer to a Measurement Task with variables that have not been
populated.  Generally the term "method" is a synonym with "procedure",
which is generally how I interpret the term "method".  Maybe the use of
"method" rather than "procedure" is causing part of my confusion.  Maybe
part of my problem is that the Registry, its role, and what is stored in
the Registry is not well described. 

Here is what I thought was going on:

 1. A registry exists somewhere that contains a list of the standardised
    metrics of interest.
 2. The metric may be composed of some parameters that can be varied. 
    For example, a metric called "Throughput" may have parameters like,
    originating end point, terminating endpoint, traffic type (UDP/TCP),
    etc.
 3. A Measurement Task is the result of the Controller populating the
    variables of the standardised metric.
 4. A Measurement Method would define particular constraints that the
    measurements must be performed under in order for the Measurement
    Results to be comparable with other Measurement Results of the same
    Measurement Task performed at different times and/or locations. 
    This could be verification that there are sufficient resources to
    perform the Measurement Task (the MA has sufficient processing
    power), the path being measured is a direct path versus a derived
    path, a result that requires multiple iterations averaged together
    has confirmation that the same path is used for each iteration,
    etc.  Note that is it not enough for two Measurement Tasks to be
    comparable simply because their parameters are the same.  Certain
    external conditions must also be the same in order for the results
    to be comparable.

Here is what the draft appears to say:

 1. A registry exists somewhere  that contains a list of standardised
    Measurement Methods.
 2. Measurement Methods consist of specific actions that have parameters
    associated with them that have not been populated.
 3. A Measurement Task is the result of the Controller populating the
    parameters of the standardised Measurement Method.
 4. No discussion of what mechanism is used to ensure that Measurement
    Tasks conducted at different times and places can be comparable.

Is there a gap?  After we clarify what the intent is, I can re-read the
draft and suggest clarifying comments.

Thanks,
Charles

Hi Charles,

thanks for the comments.

In section 3 of the draft the following defintions are included:

    Measurement Method: The process for assessing the value of a Metric;
    the process of measuring some performance or reliability parameter;
    the generalisation of a Measurement Task.

    Measurement Task: The act that yields a single Measurement Result;
    the act consisting of the (single) operation of the Measurement
    Method at a particular time and with all its parameters set to
    specific values.

    Measurement Result: The output of a single Measurement Task (the
    value obtained for the parameter of interest or Metric).

    Metric: The quantity related to the performance and reliability of
    the network that we'd like to know the value of, and that is
    carefully specified.


Registry is not defined, nor metric registry nor entries of the registry.

So, my question is, do you find the above definitions confusing/inaccurate/incomplete, or do you believe that the terms are used with a different meaning in the draft or else?

I mean, i wonder if we should focus our effort in improving the defintion or how the terms are used in the body of the draft.

Regards, marcelo

Marcelo,

For the most part, I am finding that the terms are used with a different
meanings in the draft.  I also find use of the term "generalisation" to
be confusing.  However, I would focus more on how the terms are used in
the draft. 

Charles

Dear Authors,
please find my comments to the document:

   - Document needs table of Acronyms
   - Introduction, second paragraph. I think that reference to out-of-scope
   use cases is vague as charter of the LMAP WG may change over time.
   Perhaps it can be edited to "The LMAP framework should be useful for
   these such as to help end users to run diagnostic checks".
   - text of the third paragraph in Introduction needs tightening. Use of
   "perhaps" makes it less clear.
   - I'd consider to use Measurement Method rather than Measurement Task
   considering that Sec.2 describes the latter as instantiation of the form=
er.
   - I think that "Measurement Tasks may be Active (the MA or Measurement
   Peer generates Active Measurement Traffic), Passive (the MA observes use=
r
   traffic), or some hybrid form of the two" refers to Measurement Methods,
   not Measurement Tasks.
   - s/but that are/but these are/
   - I think that achieving Standardization of Measurement Methods across
   arbitrary domain of heterogeneous Measurement Agents would encompass goa=
ls
   one and three outlined in the Introduction.
   - Section 2 and Figure 1. I think that limiting scope of LMAP to only
   single-ended two-way Measurement Methods is too restrictive. For example=
,
   Passive Measurement Methods would likely to be one-way and Controller wo=
uld
   be required to coordinate Measurement Task on both Measurement Agent and
   Measurement Peer (yes, I disagree with the assumption that passive metho=
d
   requires participation of only MA). And it is likely that the Measuremen=
t
   Peer would be exporting Measurement Results to a Collector. If the Figur=
e 1
   considered as reference model for LMAP it has to present more generic ca=
se.
   - Section 2 "The next components we consider are the Measurement Agent
   (MA), Controller and Collector." Should it list Measurement Peer or
   acknowledge that Measurement Peer is just an instance of Measurement Age=
nt.
   - Section 3. In definition of Active Measurement Method does not include
   case when both MA and Management Peer inject Active Measurement Traffic.
   Please consider "... where the Measurement Agent, the Measurement Peer o=
r
   both inject Active Measurement Traffic ..."
   - Section 3. Please consider s/Capabilities/Measurement Capabilities/
   - Section 3. I think that Control Channel exists not only between
   Controller and MA but between Controller and Measurement Peer.
   - Section 3. What differentiates Control Channel and MA-to-Controller
   Channel? And why Control Channel not listed in definition of a Channel
   along with other types of LMAP channels?

I think the above is basically correct.

[phil] such uses are wrong

[phil] such a use is wrong. A Measurement Method is how the value of a Metr=
ic is measured.

[phil] I can sympathise with this. We're working on an overall draft descri=
bing a Registry for performance metrics. This will appear in IPPM WG soon (=
hopefully).=20
This will be a registry of IETF registered metrics. An entry in the registr=
y defines the Measurement Method.
However (at least in my mind) the operator of the measurement system may de=
fine their own registry with their own Measurement Methods.=20

[phil] the ietf-iana registry has the list, yes.

[phil] the Measurement Method has some variable parameters that don't affec=
t the fundamental nature of the test. End points are good examples. Traffic=
 type is not.
The Metric is the thing measured by the Measurement Method - the thing we w=
ant to know the value of.=20

So if the Metric is "UDP One-way-packet delay variation 95% poisson", the M=
ethod might be "sections 2.4 and 3.4 of [RFC3393] with 200 bit packet, dscp=
=3D0, poisson distribution with lambda =3D1sec, output 95%-ile, <other deta=
ils>"
=09

[phil] the Measurement Task is a particular measurement made using the Meas=
urement Method with its Parameters set and at a particular time. Yes, the C=
ontroller tells the MA the Measurement Method, Parameters & the Schedule.=20

[phil] the Measurement Method should be well enough defined that Measuremen=
t Tasks (ie particular measurements that use the Measurement Method) produc=
e Measurement Results that it is reasonable to compare

[phil] it depends on how the Measurement Method is defined.
The Method could include a check that the end user isn't active, the path f=
ollowed is the one expected etc, and if it fails then the Task doesn't send=
 Active Measurement Traffic. Then the Result is "No Active Measurement Traf=
fic sent due to xy"
On the other hand...=09
The Method could include a check that the end user isn't active, the path f=
ollowed is the one expected etc, but (whatever the result of the check) Act=
ive Measurement Traffic is sent. Then the Result is "Metric measured as 47,=
 but caution - measurement made under xy conditions so Result may be suspec=
t"

In both cases, it is reasonable to compare the Measurement Results, but in =
the second case the analysis needs to exercise more caution.

Of course, comparability may need some extra work. For example, a regulator=
 comparing two operators would need to make sure that measurements were mad=
e at similar times (not busy hour vs off peak), on similar access lines (no=
t ones next to exchange vs furthest point) etc.=20

Re verification that the MA has sufficient processing power. I'd put this i=
n a different category to your other checks. It should be reported as "Task=
 not run - failed due to lack of MA processing power"; there is no Measurem=
ent Result. The operator of the measurement system should know the capabili=
ties of the device with the MA, and shouldn't be anywhere near stretching i=
ts capabilities, unless there's some failure condition like the device is i=
n the middle of crashing.=20

Thanks
phil
