Hi, I wanted to bring your attention to draft-fenner-intarea-probe-clarification, which is intended as an update to RFC8335 based on a survey of existing implementations and comparing them with the spec. I'm including the "what's changed since RFC8335" section below. https://datatracker.ietf.org

Hi equi, Thanks for bringing this up. It definitely sounds useful in a mixed version environment, but I think there's a little bit more needed in this document, because there are two important cases to consider: - There's already an RFC4884 extension header - There is not yet an RFC4884 extension

[Int-area] ICMP extension for node ID updated [draft-fenner-intarea-extended-icmp-hostid-01]

2024-04-24 Thread Bill Fenner
Hi all, I've updated the node ID ICMP extension draft that I presented in intarea in Brisbane. The motivation for this work is that we got a request from a customer to append the hostname to the interface name field in the RFC5837 response, e.g., 2 10.2.2.3 11.322 ms and I thought it was more

kind of implicit negotiation -- it's not unreasonable to imagine that a system that is configured in Norway could present its blueberry jam interface the way you describe. RFC8343 doesn't specify anything here, and I would lean towards that more-recent spec reflecting current thinking on

Hi Carlos, My high level question is: why does this belong in ICMP? More particularly, why would a provider be interested in the sustainability aspects of a single path as seen by traceroute, as opposed to a wholistic view of the network that could be gathered by a centralized NMS using a netconf

Hi Wassim, It's well past the proposed 2 weeks, but I just wanted to share my enthusiasm for this document. It's clear, to the point, and addresses a real problem that we came across while working with the update to RFC8335 and is relevant to the further ongoing uses of the ICMP extension header.
