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		: Packet Sampling (PSAMP) Protocol Specifications
	Author(s)	: B. Claise
	Filename	: draft-ietf-psamp-protocol-00.txt
	Pages		: 13
	Date		: 2003-10-20
	
This document specifies the export of packet information from a 
PSAMP exporting process to a PSAMP colleting process. For export of 
packet information the IP Flow Information eXport (IPFIX) protocol 
is used. It is shown that The IPFIX protocol is well suited for this 
purpose, because the IPFIX architecture matches the PSAMP 
architecture very well and the means provided by the IPFIX protocol 
are sufficient. The document specifies in detail how the IPFIX 
protocol is used for PSAMP export of packet information.

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.
		
		
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
