Abstract:
This document specifies tests to determine if multiple independent instantiations
of a performance-metric RFC have implemented the specifications in the same way. This is the
performance-metric equivalent of interoperability, required to advance RFCs along the Standards Track. Results from different
implementations of metric RFCs will be collected under the same underlying network conditions and compared
using statistical methods. The goal is an evaluation of the metric RFC itself to determine
whether its definitions are clear and unambiguous to implementors and therefore a candidate
for advancement on the IETF Standards Track. This document is an Internet Best Current
Practice.
