Test Plan and Results Supporting Advancement of RFC 2679 on the Standards Track

Overview

RFC 6808, “Test Plan and Results Supporting Advancement of RFC 2679 on the Standards Track”, is an Informational document published in December 2012 by L. Ciavattone, R. Geib, A. Morton, M. Wieser. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.

Abstract

This memo provides the supporting test plan and results to advance RFC 2679 on one-way delay metrics along the Standards Track, following the process in RFC 6576. Observing that the metric definitions themselves should be the primary focus rather than the implementations of metrics, this memo describes the test procedures to evaluate specific metric requirement clauses to determine if the requirement has been interpreted and implemented as intended. Two completely independent implementations have been tested against the key specifications of RFC 2679. This memo also provides direct input for development of a revision of RFC 2679. This document is not an Internet Standards Track specification; it is published for informational purposes.
