This sub-registry will contain Active Performance Metrics, especially those defined in RFCs prepared in the IP Performance Metrics (IPPM) Working Group of the IETF, and possibly applicable to other IETF metrics. Three aspects make IPPM metric registration difficult: (1) Use of the Type-P notion to allow users to specify their own packet types. (2) Use of flexible input variables, called Parameters in IPPM definitions, some of which determine the quantity measured and others of which should not be specified until execution of the measurement. (3) Allowing flexibility in choice of statistics to summarize the results on a stream of measurement packets. This memo proposes a way to organize registry entries into columns that are well-defined, permitting consistent development of entries over time (a column may marked NA if it is not applicable for that metric). The design is intended to foster development of registry entries based on existing reference RFCs, whilst each column serves as a check-list item to avoid omissions during the registration process. Every entry in the registry, before IANA action, requires Expert review as defined by concurrent IETF work in progress "Registry for Performance Metrics" (draft-manyfolks-ippm-metric- registry). The document contains two examples: a registry entry for an active Performance Metric entry based on RFC3393 and RFC5481, and a registry entry for an end-point Performance Metric based on RFC 7003. The examples are for Informational purposes and do not create any entry in the IANA registry.}, }
