Hi,

The OPSAWG/OPSAREA open meeting this afternoon has an item on the agenda
concerning the revision of RFC1052 and discussing a new architecture for
management protocols.=20


My personal take is that no one protocol, or one data modeling language
can match the operational requirements to configure and manage the wide
and wider range of hosts, routers and other network devices that are
used to implement IP networks and protocols. We should be talking
nowadays about a toolset rather than one tool that fits all. However,
this is a discussion that just starts.=20

Regards,

Dan

NMS developers need to spend too many resources on translating
naming and other data-modeling specific details so they can be
usable within the application.  So if 1 data modeling language
is not used, then deterministic, loss-less, round-trip translation
between data modeling languages is needed.  Multiple
protocols are not the problem -- incompatible data from multiple
protocols is the problem.

I think anyone with intimate experience of the Web Services standards
experiment (trying to use XML as if it was a Turing machine) would have
extreme doubts about any proposal to impose such a requirement.

It was not for no reason that many people came to refer to the Web
Services family of standards as "WS-splat". The words "small" and
"xml schema" don't really belong together,

Regards

Hi Brian,

Perhaps we understand a different thing by "xml schema" As example what 
I had in mind when asking this question was the example from "Appendix 
A" of http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-marques-l3vpn-schema-00 where 
while perhaps not yet complete it does provide decent representation of 
one of the popular service today.

That's what I had mind asking why such appendix isn't a mandatory part 
of each new protocol extension.

It has very little to do with Web Services you may be referring to.

Many thx,
R.

OPSAWG/Behave/Sunset4 WGs,

Following further consideration in OPSAWG, the Chairs have requested
addition opportunity for feedback from the Behave and Sunset4 WGs regarding
draft-ietf-opsawg-lsn-deployment-00. (link -
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-opsawg-lsn-deployment-00)

What we are looking for is technical feedback on the architecture/concepts
defined in the draft.  What we are NOT looking for is opinions on why CGN is
bad.  I expect there may be textual updates needed along with other minor
items. 

There was also a plan to remove the "Performance" section which was
originally added before other drafts were available discussing CGN/NAT444
impacts (like draft-donley-nat444-impacts)

The document presupposes an operator has decided to do CGN/NAT444
(business/technical reasons particular to them) and therefore may require
architectural options on how to deploy this in an existing network.  The
document offers once such option using BGP/MPLS IP VPNs.

I appreciate feedback.

Regards,

Victor K

Hi there,

There was a question regarding scaling in the case of hundreds of VMs etc.

In cases if a full dump is not needed, does it make sense to have the abili=
ty to create flag setting thresholds that represent an aggregation and port=
ion of a MIB tree? This might provide a more lightweight polling mechanism =
than a scan of large spans of the MIB.

However, Chris made a really good question regarding if MIBs are really rel=
evant given the

Regards,aa

Can you perhaps elaborate using an example what "create flag setting
thresholds that represent an aggregation and portion of a MIB tree"
means? BTW, there are generic thresholding and even expression MIBs.

Again, these are for cases where a full dump is not needed across the VMs. =
It is similar to Solution #02-01 but where #02-01 just indicates a change i=
n value, the idea here is to quantify & threshold the change to see if it i=
s meaningful of further data capture.

Examples:

	(I'm simplifying quite a bit)
	1. create a histogram representing all CPU loads of the VMs on the machine=
. The buckets of the histogram could represent a CPU load of 0-25, 26-50, 5=
1-75.. etc). Rather than the poller grabbing each of the individual CPUs it=
 could just look at the histogram to see if there is any high level change =
worth investigating more.=20

	2. select 5-6 KPI within a MIB tree (lets' say in if-mib it's items like i=
fOperStatus, %change in InOctets, %OutErrors, etc) if any of these exceed c=
onfigured thresholds indicate a change via a new object for that specific V=
M.

You could also group the 100's of VMs into buckets where each bucket has an=
 indicator object representing significant change. This would ease the need=
 to scan through each of the VMs.

There are certainly cases where systematic metadata are useful; I can't judge
whether VPN configuration is one of them, but I can easily believe it. In such
a case, I suppose XML is as good a tool as ASN.1, ABNF or whatever else
you might choose.

That's an enormous leap that I just don't understand. Most protocols don't
need that sort of configuration complexity.

Yes it does. It's exactly because of a doctrinaire approach that whatever
it is, it should be represented by an XML schema, that WS-splat became
such a horribly complex matter.

Again: no problem with creating XML schemata where they are useful. But
making them mandatory would be just as bad as making MIB modules mandatory,
IMHO.

Hello Brian,

> need that sort of configuration complexity.

Hmmmm I am of the opinion that most protocols requires configuration. I 
am also of the opinion that each vendor chooses an original way to 
configure their network elements.

Therefor if you do not define up front a standard based of configuring 
given routing protocol you will end up with exactly what we have today 
.. zoo of various different CLI commands to enable the exact same 
protocol across more then one vendor box.

Are you saying that this is ok ?

Or are you saying that there is simpler way to enable netconf based 
unified way to configure protocols and services on your network other 
then providing per component "xml schema" with subsequent schema 
extensions as part of IETF standardization process ?

To make it a bit more explicit ... do you really need to study 5 user 
manuals or google 5 times to enable IGP or BGP or even configure NTP 
across 5 different router OS running in your network ???

 > mandatory, IMHO.

Aha .. so you are saying that MIBs are not mandatory .... Very 
interesting. So I guess SSH to the routers and box by box cli 
provisioning is here to stay for a while I think :(

Best regards,
R.

I don't:-)  I think that XML is a disaster, lacking any fundamental
principles or coherence, something that I see with its use for
protocols such as Netconf.

By contrast, I never saw such problems with SNMP and ASN.1,
except where the IETF had limited its use thereof (which was
probably the right call).

Robert,

you may want to take a closer look at the data models currently being
defined in the NETMOD working group. Please review them and send any
comments.

Hi Juergen,

Many thx for the great suggestion !

However perhaps you are much more knowledgeable in that area and could 
recommend which model fit the best the requirement to standardize 
configuration of any new protocol or protocol extension at least in the 
space of routing and routing protocols or services being based on them ?

As you know the current IRS framework driven by junisco is trying to 
come with common API to the routing system agreed across vendors. This 
is great as attempts never happened in the past.

But if we are at this phase I think creating a network elements 
abstraction layer and be able to configure/monitor any protocol and 
service at the unified way is one of the building blocks we should start 
with. And of course I think this is very clear to everyone if it is not 
made mandatory in each draft as new section or appendix it is just not 
going to happen in practice.

Best regards,
R.

Writing data models that are implementable on multiple platforms is
non trivial. We started working on your "building block" but it will
take time. And after all, a data model is only worth something if it
gets implemented.  A mandatory section does not help much with all of
this. What helps is people who commit time to work on it, who review
stuff, producing good and hopefully widely implementable models.

...

Picking a single language or set of round-trip translatable languages
also isn't enough.  Its a fact of life that vendors will produce
models and implementations that are slightly, or even radically different.
The differences aren't necessarily even intentional, but nonetheless
introduce the need to talk about "similar" models and "operationally
equivalent" configurations, where the transformations needed to go
from what will do the job on one piece of equipment to what will
work on another may be substantial.  (From an implementation perspective
it might be better to think in terms of transformations necessary to go
from a common model of desired operational characteristics to the
dial tweaks and button pokes necessary to get a device to do the right
thing.)  Since great minds often think alike, even in the absence
of standards, there is not necessarily a formal "derived from" or
"subclass" or "common aspect" relationship between the definitions.
This may be an obvious use case for XSLT, but as far as I know nothing
has been done about *standardizing* such usage, other than discussions at the
IAB workshop oh-so-many years ago, and some ISO/ITU discussions in
the 1990s about eventual applications of the General Relationship
Model and the management domain/policy stuff in GDMO land.

Greetings,

	The gmane reflector for the opsawg mailing list has been setup =
as gmane.ietf.opsawg.  They will also pull the existing archives over =
and make them available as well.

Hi Dan,

 > We should be talking
 > nowadays about a toolset rather than one tool that fits all.

Just to clarify what I asked about .. I am not looking for a single tool 
or single protocol to be used to configure everything.

I am asking for small building block like xml schema (or something 
similar) to be part of each new IETF proposal or protocol change. IMHO 
only that can allow any further more fancy abstractions and tools to be 
build and used in practice.

Best regards,
R.

Hi again,

Thanks for applying the comments.

AA> Jan, can you look again ? Is there still a problem?

No, sorry missed the TBD or its significance.

AA> We're open to adding scope (as defined as which set of packets would th=
is be applicable to).
AA> Would you agree that this is more of a methodology item than a IE item?

Yes, indeed, whichever of Observation domain/Scope it is, it is not the pro=
perty of the IE.

Hi Amer,

I have reviewed your draft draft-akhter-opsawg-perfmon-ipfix-02.txt.

There seems to be a lot of text overlap with your methodology document - se=
ction 1,3, 4 could probably be abbreviated or omitted leaving the document =
just with raw IPFIX IE specifications or just add the IE specification as s=
ub-sections or a new section into the first document ??=20

AA> I agree that there is overlap, but it was retained for readability. But=
 I see your point regarding keeping the focus on the IEs in the IPFIX versi=
on of the draft.  Will strip some of the detail in the IPFIX version.

Section 2 uses definitions from RFC5610 - I think those you use there are d=
efined in RFC5102 as DataTypeSemantic, units and range while
RFC5610 specifies how this information should be exported - here you are de=
fining the IE itself so you should use the definitions from RFC5102

AA> I think I had used RFC5610 as it seemed to be a bit more specific about=
 it (eg rangeBegin and rangeEnd  rather than just range). But we are fine e=
ither way depending on feedback.

Also the methodology documents already speaks in terms of IPFIX IEs while y=
ou are trying to specify some performance metrics - the methodology could h=
ave names and an exact definitions of the metric and then a reference which=
 IE represents the particular metric

AA> will update the methodology doc with exact definitions and reference th=
e IEs.=20

RFC5102 section 2.1 specifies a template for IEs with a MUST so the MUST en=
tries should be literally followed in your IEs spec
- namely name, elementID, description, dataType and status.

Well there is one example I can think of where this didn't
become the norm -- DOCSIS --  where a small customer community forced vendors 
through a process of standardization (trekking to Broomfield CO USA oh joy) 
in order for them to sell gear. And that included a set of tests for 
the SNMPv3 agent with mandated read-write mib modules among other 
mgmt protocols employed. 

Maybe this was a simpler problem than that's being discussed here.
But given the VC activity/startups on virtualized networking
can imagine that other chunks of networking infrastructure 
amenable to standardized configuration will follow suit.
Once that occurs then standards bodies codify industry practice.
