We've submitted a draft of what we believe to be interesting bulk data collection use cases for I2RS, and the concomitant functionality missing from existing solutions. Please read and comment.
Normative and informative references are still to be added, and the draft is still rough around the edges. Data model discussions are deliberately left out, hopefully the scope is sufficient. And of course other interesting use cases would be welcome. Thanks for having a look. -Scott ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: <internet-dra...@ietf.org> Date: Mon, Oct 21, 2013 at 11:11 AM Subject: New Version Notification for draft-swhyte-i2rs-data-collection-system-00.txt To: Scott Whyte <swh...@google.com>, Marcus Hines <hi...@google.com>, Warren Kumari <war...@kumari.net> A new version of I-D, draft-swhyte-i2rs-data-collection-system-00.txt has been successfully submitted by Scott Whyte and posted to the IETF repository. Filename: draft-swhyte-i2rs-data-collection-system Revision: 00 Title: Bulk Network Data Collection System Creation date: 2013-10-21 Group: Individual Submission Number of pages: 10 URL: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-swhyte-i2rs-data-collection-system-00.txt Status: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-swhyte-i2rs-data-collection-system Htmlized: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-swhyte-i2rs-data-collection-system-00 Abstract: Collecting large amounts of data from network infrastructure devices has never been very easy. Existing methods generate CPU and memory loads that may be unacceptable, the output varies across implementations and can be difficult to parse, and these methods are often difficult to scale. I2RS programmatic interfacing with the routing system may exacerbate this problem: state needs to be collected from nodes and fed to consumers participating in the control plane that may not be physically close to the nodes. This state includes not only control plane information, but elements of the data plane that have a direct impact on control plane behavior, like traffic engineering. This document outlines a set of use cases requiring a flexible framework to collect routing system data, and the features and functionality needed to make such a framework useful for these use cases. Please note that it may take a couple of minutes from the time of submission until the htmlized version and diff are available at tools.ietf.org.
