Operational Statistics (opstat) Charter Status: Concluded August, 1995 Chair(s): Nevil Brownlee Henry Clark Description of Working Group: Today there exists a variety of network management tools for the collection and presentation of network statistical data. Different kinds of measurements and presentation techniques make it hard to compare data between networks. There exists a need to compare these statistical data on a uniform basis to facilitate cooperative management, ease problem isolation and network planning. The working group will try to define a model for network statistics, a minimal set of common metrics, tools for gathering statistical data, a common statistical database storage format and common presentation formats. Collecting tools will store data in a given format later to be retrieved by presentation tools displaying the data in a predefined way. Request for Comments: |
