A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Packet Sampling Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Sampling and Filtering Techniques for 
			  IP Packet Selection
	Author(s)	: T. Zseby, M. Molina, F. Raspall
	Filename	: draft-ietf-psamp-sample-tech-01.txt
	Pages		: 19
	Date		: 2003-3-6
	
This document describes sampling and filtering techniques for IP
packet selection. It introduces information models for packet
sampling, for packet filtering and for combinations of methods. The
information models describe what information has to be specified in
order to describe the method. This information is used for
configuring the selection technique in measurement processes and for
reporting the technique in use to the measurement data collection
process.
The document first suggests some terminology, then it describes in
detail packet sampling and packet filtering techniques and their
parameters. It also describes how these two techniques can be
combined to build more elaborate packet selectors. Finally, it
introduces information models for the most common sampling and
filtering techniques.

NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
