The IESG has received a request from the Benchmarking Methodology WG (bmwg) to consider the following document: - 'Multiple Loss Ratio Search' <draft-ietf-bmwg-mlrsearch-11.txt> as Informational RFC
The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the [email protected] mailing lists by 2025-08-06. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to [email protected] instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract This document specifies extensions to "Benchmarking Methodology for Network Interconnect Devices" (RFC 2544) throughput search by defining a new methodology called Multiple Loss Ratio search (MLRsearch). MLRsearch aims to minimize search duration, support multiple loss ratio searches, and improve result repeatability and comparability. MLRsearch is motivated by the pressing need to address the challenges of evaluating and testing the various data plane solutions, especially in software- based networking systems based on Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) CPU hardware vs purpose-built ASIC / NPU / FPGA hardware. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-bmwg-mlrsearch/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
