Clear description of the referenced document:
|
|
Name:
|
IETF RFC 7799 (2016)
|
Title:
|
Active and Passive Metrics and Methods (with Hybrid Types In-Between)
|
|
2.
|
Status of approval:
|
|
This document is not an Internet Standards Track specification; it is published for informational purposes.
|
3.
|
Justification for the specific reference:
|
|
Y.LUL is prescribing a method of measurement for metrics. For that purpose, it is referring to the Active class as defined in IETF-RFC7799. The co-editor of Y.LUL (Al Morton) is also the author of the referenced RFC. Using an existing and well-defined method is considered to be the best and most straightforward way in this case.

9.1-9.6 Decisions of ITU Council to admit ISOC to participate in the work of the Sector (June 1995 and June 1996).
9.7 The Internet Engineering Steering Group (IESG) is responsible for ongoing maintenance of the RFCs when the need arises. Comments on RFCs and corresponding changes are accommodated through the existing standardization process.
9.8 Each revision of a given RFC has a different RFC number, so no confusion is possible. All RFCs always remain available on-line. An index of RFCs and their status may be found in the IETF archives at http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc.html.
