Hi Roni,

Hi Benoit,

Thanks, see in-line

IETF LC End Date: 2012-4-17

Summary: This draft is almost ready for publication as an Informational RFC.

 

Major issues:

 

Minor issues:

 

In sections 2, 4.1 (PANA-L7), 5, 6.5 the draft points to information in
Cisco web page. I could not locate and information that is referenced. The
link is to the main Cisco web page. For example in section 6.5 it lists the
selectorID as 10000, where is this value located?

The exact URsL are
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/iosswrel/ps6537/ps6555/ps6601/pre
sentation_c96-629396.html
and
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/iosswrel/ps6537/ps6558/ps6616/pro
duct_bulletin_c25-627831.html
As you can see from the URLs, there is a chance that those might change.
Stephen Farrell had the same comment. 

 

RE: My concern was that going to Cisco web page I tried to search for the
information using the search window and could not find it so I think that
this link is not helpful for finding the information.

Understood. We propose 
1. to remove all references to [CISCO] in the draft, except in the appendix
2. to add the following text
    
            Appendix X (non normative)

      A reference to the Cisco Systems assigned numbers for the Application
Id and
      the different attribute assignments can be found at [CISCO
<http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-claise-export-application-info-in-ipfix-07
#ref-CISCO> ].
 
      [CISCO-APPLICATION-REGISTRY]
http://www.cisco.com/go/application-registry
 

3. However, it will take a couple of days to set up this new URL. So we
propose to add

            RFC-EDITOR NOTE: at the time of publication, if the
[CISCO-APPLICATION-REGISTRY] is not available, 
            this appendix must be removed

Does it work for you?









In section 7 I noticed that "p2pTechnology, tunnelTechnology, and
encryptedTechnology" are already assigned in the IANA IPFIX Information
elements so why assign them again as new?

from RFC5102:

   The value of these identifiers is in the range of 1-32767.  Within
   this range, Information Element identifier values in the sub-range of
   1-127 are compatible with field types used by NetFlow version 9
   [RFC3954 <http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3954> ].
 

So basically, if Cisco has assigned those numbers already, they can reused
in IANA.

 

RE: The question is if you want the existing assignment to be used without
change than why have this information in the IANA consideration in the first
place. 

Because the IANA registry currently contain "reserved for the corresponding
IEs
See "100-127 Reserved" at http://www.iana.org/assignments/ipfix/ipfix.xml 

 






In section 7 I noticed that you request that the  applicationDescription,
applicationId, applicationName, classificationEngineId will receive
elementid values from the range 0-127. My reading from section 4.2 is this
is not required, maybe add text that will explain this request.

See my previous remark. 

 

RE:  OK, even though it should be clear that this applies to these specific
selectors since you want them to be compatible with NetFlow version 9 and it
is not a general request for using specific sub range for all selectors.






 

Nits/editorial comments:

 

1.  In section 4.1 last sentence what is the meaning of "by theses
specifications" , I did not understand the context.

2.  In section 6.6 "to determine whether or the default HTTP port" delete
the "or"

In section 6.6 "The Classification Engine ID is 2" should be "3".

All corrected in to-be-posted-version.

Regards, Benoit.




will be corrected.

Thanks again.

Regards, Benoit.
