Active and Passive Metrics and Methods
RFC 7799, “Active and Passive Metrics and Methods”, is an Informational document published in May 2016 by A. Morton. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This memo provides clear definitions for Active and Passive performance assessment. The construction of Metrics and Methods can be described as either "Active" or "Passive". Some methods may use a subset of both Active and Passive attributes, and we refer to these as "Hybrid Methods". This memo also describes multiple dimensions to help evaluate new methods as they emerge.
