Dear all,

Earlier in the month of February 2012 a group of authors from Microsoft, Facebook and DELL had published
a draft for a mechanism named Traceflow (which had seen an earlier incarnation in 2008). After subsequent
discussions with Ron Bonica and Melinda Shore and a presentation of Traceflow in IETF83 in Paris, it was
decided to publish a set of requirements rather than a tool specification itself. So we have split the
requirements separately and are publishing the following enclosed draft for your kind perusal and review.

Your collective feedback on the proposal is most welcome. This mail is to initiate that needed discussion
on the subject. 

thanks and regards,
Traceflow team

A new version of I-D, draft-janapath-opsawg-flowoam-req-00.txt has been successfully submitted by Balaji Venkat Venkataswami and posted to the IETF repository.

Filename:	 draft-janapath-opsawg-flowoam-req
Revision:	 00
Title:		 Requirements for OAM tools that enable flow Analysis
Creation date:	 2012-05-08
WG ID:		 Individual Submission
Number of pages: 11

Abstract:
   This document specifies Operations and Management (OAM) requirements
   that improve on the traditional OAM tools like Ping and  Traceroute.
   These requirements have arisen from the fact that more details than
   given by Ping and Traceroute are required while troubleshooting or
   doing performance and network planning. These requirements have been
   gathered from network operators especially from data centers where
   the networks have slightly different characteristics compared to
   regular campus/carrier networks.
