The IESG has approved the following document: - 'An Update to the tcpControlBits IP Flow Information Export (IPFIX) Information Element' (draft-ietf-opsawg-rfc7125-update-07.txt) as Proposed Standard
This document is the product of the Operations and Management Area Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Warren Kumari and Robert Wilton. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-opsawg-rfc7125-update/ Technical Summary RFC 7125 revised the tcpControlBits IP Flow Information Export (IPFIX) Information Element that was originally defined in RFC 5102 to reflect changes to the TCP header control bits since RFC 793. However, that update is still problematic for interoperability because some flag values have subsequently been deprecated. This document removes stale information from the IPFIX registry and avoids future conflicts with the authoritative TCP Header Flags registry. This document obsoletes RFC 7125. Working Group Summary There was one point of controversy, but that has been resolved. Otherwise, there is nothing else worth noting. Document Quality This work represents a cleanup of the tcpControlBits as it relates to IPFIX so that operators can interpret flow data more accurately. Implementations insofar as TCP and IPFIX have existed for a long time. Implementations for this update are very likely. Personnel The Document Shepherd for this document is Joe Clarke. The Responsible Area Director is Robert Wilton. _______________________________________________ OPSAWG mailing list OPSAWG@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/opsawg
