Ballot Text

Technical Summary

   This document introduces new IP Flow Information Export (IPFIX)
   Information Elements to identify a set of Segment Routing over IPv6
   (SRv6) related information such as data contained in a Segment
   Routing Header (SRH), the SRv6 control plane, and the SRv6 endpoint
   behavior that traffic is being forwarded with.

Working Group Summary

  No controversy is to be reported for the draft. The authors were responsive in
  dealing with the comments raised by reviewers. One aspect that required some
  cycles is related to the IANA actions. For example, previous versions of the
  specification requested the creation of new registries that are redundant with
  existing IANA registries. That design was problematic. That issue and similar
  ones were fixed in subsequent iterations of the draft after consulting with the
  IANA.

Document Quality

  Yes. At least, the following implementations were disclosed:

  * open-source flow collector pmacct: [https://github.com/pmacct/pmacct]
  * VPP: [https://github.com/insa-unyte/vpp-srh-onpath-telemetry]
  * Huawei VRP
