The Gen-ART Review by Suresh Krishnan on 12-Apr-2011 shows two places
where the document is not clear. Please address these two places.
Section 2 says:
However, the amount of information
has become so important that, when dealing with highly granular
information such as Flow information, a push mechanism (as opposed
to a pull mechanism, such as SNMP) is the only solution for
routers whose primary function is to route packets.
Did you mean that "the amount of information is so large" or did you
mean that "collecting this information has become so important" or
did you mean something else?
Section 2 also says:
Furthermore, in order to reduce the export bandwidth requirements,
the network elements have to integrate mediation functions to
aggregate the collected information, both in space and time.
What does aggregation based on space mean?

With the additional rfc editor note added to the security considerations this is fine.

A well written document. The following are minor nits that I noticed during my review In Section 2 "However, the amount of information has become so important..." I think you mean "....so large...." ==== 2.4. The Proposal This is a standards track doc - therefore this is no longer a proposal. =====
