Subject: [sacm] IPFIX and its structured data elements

All,

I was involved in the IPFIX WG and involved in the evolution and design of the structured data elements in IPFIX.

Please DO NOT use them here.  Their design is a compromise to what was at the time the existing IPFIX data model mechanism and the need to add structured data to IPFIX.

The thing we should be using from the IPFIX model is simply the notation.  To the extent that abstract data structures are needed / desired, that should be built independently.
