Network operators want a statistical delay view of their networks. They want to understand where in the network, for which customer traffic, how much and why delay is being accummlated. In order to answer why and where, delay needs to be reported into device and control-plane context. In order to understand which customer traffic is affected, delay needs to be reported into customer data-plane context. That enables network operators to quickly identify when the control-plane updates the current path with a different next-hop and therefore the forwarding path changes to different nodes and interfaces, how the path delay changes for which customer traffic.¶
With On-Path Telemetry, described in the Network Telemetry Framework [RFC9232] and applied in In-situ OAM [I-D.ietf-ippm-ioam-deployment], Path Tracing [I-D.filsfils-spring-path-tracing] and In-situ Flow Information Telemetry [I-D.song-opsawg-ifit-framework], the path delay between two endpoints is measured by inserting a timestamp in the packet.¶
On-Path Telemetry can be distinguished between two modes. Passport mode, [RFC9197], where only the last hop in the forwarding path of the On-Path Telemetry domain exposes all the metrics, and postcard mode, [I-D.song-ippm-postcard-based-telemetry], where the metrics are also exposed in the transit nodes. In both modes the forwarding path exposes performance metrics allowing to determine how much delay has been accumulated on which hop.¶
This document defines four new IPFIX Information Elements (IEs), exposing the On-Path delay on IOAM transit and decapsulation nodes, following the postcard mode principles. Since these IPFIX IEs are performance metrics [RFC8911], they must be registered in the "IANA Performance Metric Registry [IANA-PERF-METRIC].¶
Following the guidelines for Registered Performance Metric requesters and reviewers [RFC8911], the different characteristics of the performance metrics (Identifier, Name, URI, Status, Requester, Revision, Revision Date, Description, etc) must be clearly specified in the "IANA Performance Metric Registry [IANA-PERF-METRIC] in order for the results of measurements using the Performance Metrics to be comparable even if they are performed by different implementations and in different networks. These characteristics start by selecting a meaningful name, following the "MetricType_Method_SubTypeMethod_... Spec_Units_Output" naming convention (See Section 7.1.2 of [RFC8911]).¶

The delay is measured by calculating the difference between the timestamp imposed with On-Path Telemetry in the packet at the IOAM encapsulation node and the timestamp exported in the IPFIX flow record from the IOAM transit and decapsulation nodes. The lowest, highest, mean, and/or the sum of measured path delay can be exported, thanks to the different IPFIX IE specifications.¶

This section defines and describes the new performance metrics by applying the template defined in Section 11 of [RFC8911].¶
This section specifies four performance metrics for the Hybrid Type I Passive assessment of IP One-Way Delay, to be registered in the "IANA Performance Metric Registry [IANA-PERF-METRIC].¶
All column entries besides the ID, Name, Description, and Output Reference Method categories are the same; thus, this section defines four closely related performance metrics. As a result, IANA has assigned corresponding URLs to each of the four registered performance metrics.¶
This category includes multiple indexes of the registered performance metrics: the element ID and Metric Name.¶

This metric assesses the one-way delay of IP packets constituting a single connection between two hosts. We consider the measurement of one-way delay based on a single Observation Point (OP) [RFC7011] somewhere in the network. The output is the one-way delay for all successfully forwarded packets expressed as the <statistic> of their conditional delay distribution, where <statistic> is one of:¶

Morton, A. and E. Stephan, "Spatial Composition of Metrics", RFC 6049, DOI 10.17487/RFC6049, January 2011, <https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc6049>. [RFC6049]¶
Section 3.4 of [RFC7679] provides the reference definition of the singleton (single value) one-way delay metric. Section 4.4 of [RFC7679] provides the reference definition expanded to cover a multi-value sample. Note that terms such as "singleton" and "sample" are defined in section 2 of [RFC2330].¶
With the OP [RFC7011] typically located between the hosts participating in the IP connection, the one-way delay metric requires one individual measurement between the OP and sourcing host, such that the Spatial Composition [RFC6049] of the measurements yields a one-way delay singleton.¶
Traffic Filters:¶
IPv4 header values: DSCP: Set to 0 IPv6 header values: DSCP: Set to 0 Hop Count: Set to 255 Flow Label: Set to 0 Extension Headers: None¶
This category includes columns for references to relevant sections of the RFC(s) and any supplemental information needed to ensure an unambiguous method for implementations.¶
The foundational methodology for this metric is defined in section 4 of [RFC7323] using the Timestamps option with modifications that allow application at a mid-path OP [RFC7011].¶
N/A¶
The Fixed Parameters above give a portion of the Traffic Filter. Other aspects will be supplied as Runtime Parameters (below).¶
This metric requires a partial sample of all packets that qualify according to the Traffic Filter criteria.¶
Runtime Parameters are input factors that must be determined, configured into the measurement system, and reported with the results for the context to be complete.¶
The hybrid type I metering parameters must must be reported to provide the complete measurement context. As an example, if the IPFIX metering process is used, then the IPFIX metering process parameters (IPFIX template record used, potential traffic filters, and potential sampling method and parameters) that generates the flow records must be reported to provide the complete measurement context.¶
This category specifies all details of the output of measurements using the metric.¶
OWDelay Types are discussed in the subsections below.¶
For all output types:¶
For each <statistic> Singleton one of the following subsections applies.¶
The mean SHALL be calculated using the conditional distribution of all packets with a finite value of one-way delay (undefined delays are excluded) -- a single value, as follows:¶
See section 4.1 of [RFC3393] for details on the conditional distribution to exclude undefined values of delay, and see section 5 of [RFC6703] for background on this analysis choice.¶
See section 4.2.2 of [RFC6049] for details on calculating this statistic; see also section 4.2.3 of [RFC6049].¶
The minimum SHALL be calculated using the conditional distribution of all packets with a finite value of one-way delay (undefined delays are excluded) -- a single value, as follows:¶
See section 4.1 of [RFC3393] for details on the conditional distribution to exclude undefined values of delay, and see section 5 of [RFC6703] for background on this analysis choice.¶
See section 4.3.2 of [RFC6049] for details on calculating this statistic; see also section 4.3.3 of [RFC6049].¶

See section 4.1 of [RFC3393] for details on the conditional distribution to exclude undefined values of delay, and see section 5 of [RFC6703] for background on this analysis choice.¶
See section 4.3.2 of [RFC6049] for a closely related method for calculating this statistic; see also section 4.3.3 of [RFC6049]. The formula is as follows:¶
Max = (FiniteDelay[j]) such that for some index, j, where 1 <= j <= N FiniteDelay[j] >= FiniteDelay[n] for all n¶
where all packets n = 1 through N have finite singleton delays.¶
The sum SHALL be calculated using the conditional distribution of all packets with a finite value of one-way delay (undefined delays are excluded) -- a single value, as follows:¶
See section 4.1 of [RFC3393] for details on the conditional distribution to exclude undefined values of delay, and see section 5 of [RFC6703] for background on this analysis choice.¶
See section 4.3.5 of [RFC6049] for details on calculating this statistic. However in this case FiniteDelay or MaxDelay MAY be used.¶
The <statistic> of one-way delay is expressed in seconds, where <statistic> is one of:¶
The one-way delay of the IP connection singleton is expressed in seconds.¶

Note to the RFC-Editor:¶
The same recommendation as defined in section 4.5 of [RFC5153] for IPFIX applies in terms of clock precision to this document as well.¶
The mean (average) path delay can be calculated by dividing the PathDelaySumDeltaMicroseconds(TBD5) by the packetDeltaCount(2) at the IPFIX data collection in order to offload the IPFIX Exporter from calculating the mean for every Flow at export time.¶
Unsigned64 has been chosen as type for PathDelaySumDeltaMicroseconds to support cases with large delay numbers and where many packets are being accounted. As an example, a specific flow record with path delay of 100 microseconds can not observe more than 42949 packets without overflowing the unsigned32 counter. The procedure described in Section 6.2 of [RFC7011] could be applied to reduce network bandwidth between the IPFIX Exporter and Collector if unsigned32 would be large enough without wrapping around.¶
This document is applicable in IOAM to the Edge-to-Edge and Direct Exporting Option-Type.¶
In case of Edge-to-Edge Option-Type, as described in Section 4.6 of [RFC9197], by setting bits 2 and 3, timestamps can be encoded as defined in Section 4.4.2.3 and 4.4.2.4 of [RFC9197].¶
In case of Direct Exporting Option-Type, as described in Section 2 of [I-D.ahuang-ippm-dex-timestamp-ext], by setting Extension-Flags 2 and 3, timestamps can be encoded as defined in Section 4.4.2.3 and 4.4.2.4 of [RFC9197].¶
For Path Tracing, Section 4.1 of [I-D.filsfils-spring-path-tracing] describes what kind of timestamps are supported. Section 9.2 describe the SRH path tracing TLV where the timestamp is being inserted.¶
There are no significant extra security considerations regarding the allocation of these new IPFIX IEs compared to [RFC7012].¶
