Monitoring Service KPIs using TWAMP - Methodology
draft-spv-ippm-monitor-methodology-services-kpi-00
Abstract
We are introducing a new method to calculate services KPIs and
metrics in the network using TWAMP protocol. The services here
ranging from subscriber aware services to security application,
Traffic load balancing, content delivery, real time streaming and
like.The KPIs discussed in this draft include Service Latency,
Serviced Packets Count, Serviced Subscriber Count, Application
Liveliness and Session load per Service. KPIs monitoring of these
services therefore, play a vital role in optimum usage of network
resources such as capacity and throughput. Once we have the
attributes like service latency, the network topology can be chosen
to provide better quality of experience to the end user. For
different services, the attributes may vary and our design takes care
of supporting different KPIs for different services model.
Additionally, liveliness of application and servers can be monitored
using this proposed solution.

1. Introduction
The TWAMP-Test runs between a Session-Sender and a Session-Reflector
RFC 5357 [RFC5357]. The existing TWAMP-Test packet format has
existing padding octets that are currently not used (either set to
zero or pseudo-random values). These octets can be used to carry
additional information between the Session-Sender and the Session-
Reflector. The proposed extension uses these padding octets and
provide a method to monitor services KPIs in the network. This
feature is termed as Services KPI Monitoring using TWAMP.

Internet-Draft Service KPIs using TWAMP methodology October 2015
The services here refers to Layer 4 to Layer 7 services like DPI,
SFW, CGNAT, TDF and so on. Additionally these services can refer to
applications like DNS, HTTP, FTP and so on. The KPIs MAY include
service latency, service load monitoring in terms of number of flows,
number of sessions, number of subscribers, number of octets,
liveliness of a service.
For instance, Services KPI Monitoring using TWAMP MAY be used to
measure service latency of DPI, number of CGNAT flows, number of TDF
subscribers and so on. Similarly this MAY be used to monitor the
liveliness of the DNS Server, HTTP Server and so on.
As per the proposed extension, both the TWAMP-Control and the TWAMP-
Test packet formats are modified. One TWAMP-Test session SHALL be
used to monitor KPIs for a specific service. But there can be
multiple KPIs monitored using a single test session for a specific
service. A single TWAMP-Control connection MAY establish multiple
TWAMP-Test sessions that measure KPIs for multiple services in the
network.
This extension can be used to monitor KPIs for standalone service or
a set of services.

2. Purpose and Scope
The purpose of this extension is to provide a method to describe an
additional optional feature for TWAMP RFC 5357 [RFC5357].
The scope of the extension is limited to specifications of the
following features:
1. Extension of the modes of operation through assignment of a new
value in the Modes field to communicate feature capability.
2. Addition of new command types to identify, negotiate and monitor
the supported services and supported KPIs for each service
between Control-Client and TWAMP Server.
3. Use of existing padding octets of TWAMP-Test session to carry the
services KPI data that is being monitored as part of the TWAMP-
Test session.
The purpose for this feature is to enhance TWAMP protocol to monitor
and calculate service-related KPIs in real-time that helps in network
performance analysis and optimization.
The actual method to calculate the KPIs is not discussed and depends
on implementation.
3. Logical Model
The set of messages that are exchanged between the Control-Client and
TWAMP Server to negotiate and monitor the services KPI is referred to
as Service Block (Fig 1.) Service Block MAY be a part of the same
network element or can be a different entity.
Srivathsa Sarangapani, et Expires April 7, 2016 [Page 4]
Internet-Draft Service KPIs using TWAMP methodology October 2015
Services KPI-Monitor-REQ is sent from Control-Client to TWAMP Server
to get the list of supported services and the KPIs that can be
monitored for each service. Once TWAMP Server receives this request,
Services KPI-Monitor-RSP is sent with the number of services that can
be monitored on this Control-Client connection.
This message is followed by Services KPI-Monitor-IND message from the
Session-Reflector which contain a service ID to identify the service
and the list of KPIs that are supported for this service.The client
replies with the Services KPI-Monitor-ACK message that include the
list of KPIs the client is interested in monitoring.These two sets of
messages will be repeated for each of the services that Server can
monitor.
Then the client will initiate Request-TW-Session Message that contain
the service ID for a specific service. Once Server replies with the
Accept-Session Message, the client SHALL start sending test packets
that MAY contain Service PDU.

4. TWAMP Extensions
The TWAMP connection establishment follows the procedure defined in
Section 3.1 of OWAMP [RFC4656] and Section 3.1 of TWAMP [RFC5357]
where the Modes field is used to identify and select specific
communication capabilities. At the same time the Modes field been
recognized and used as an extension mechanism of TWAMP Reflect Octets
and Symmetrical Size Features [RFC6038]. The new feature requires a
new bit position to identify the ability of a Session-Reflector to
monitor Services KPIs. There are changes in both the Control-Client
and TWAMP-Test packet formats to support this functionality.
Srivathsa Sarangapani, et Expires April 7, 2016 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft Service KPIs using TWAMP methodology October 2015
4.1. TWAMP-Control Extensions
The TWAMP-Control is a derivative of the OWAMP-Control, and provides
two-way measurement capability. TWAMP; [RFC5357] uses the Modes
field to identify and select specific communication capabilities, and
this field is a recognized extension mechanism. The following
Sections describe one such extension.
4.1.1. Connection Setup with Services KPIs Monitoring
TWAMP-Control connection establishment follows the procedure defined
in Section 3.1 of OWAMP; [RFC4656]. The Services KPIs Monitoring
using TWAMP mode requires one new bit position (and value) to
identify the ability of the Server or the Session-Reflector to
monitor the Services KPIs of the sessions. This new extension
requires an additional TWAMP mode bit assignment as explained in
Section 5.1.
A Control-Client MAY request for Services KPIs monitoring for some of
its sessions. To do so, it needs to know which services can be
monitored and the corresponding KPIs (of those services)that can be
monitored.
Services KPI Monitoring Command (SKMC) consist of a set of messages
which SHALL be used for monitoring the KPIs of a service. This new
command requires an additional TWAMP Command Number as explained in
Section 6.
4.1.2. Services KPI-Monitor-REQ Command
A Control-Client MAY send Services KPI-Monitor-REQ command to the
Server to obtain the list of services and their KPIs that can be
monitored by the Session-Reflector.
The format of the Services KPI-Monitor-REQ Command is as follows:
0 1 2 3
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1

This new feature requires 2 octets to indicate the Service ID as a
part of Request-TW-Session Command. See Section 6 for details on the
octet position. If Services KPIs Monitoring using TWAMP feature is
not requested as a part of this TWAMP-Test Session, then the Service
ID MUST be 0.
If Service ID has a non-zero value, then the Padding Length field MAY
not have any significance. The test packets between Session-Sender
and Session-Reflector MAY be of different size based on the
implementation.
The actual test packets MAY contain valid data which SHOULD be
interpreted by Session-Sender or Session-Reflector to monitor
Services KPIs. Please refer TWAMP-Test Extension Section 4.2 for
more details.
4.2. TWAMP-Test Extension
As part of this extension, the existing Packet Padding octets in the
Test Packet MAY be used for the monitoring of the Services KPIs as
explained in KPI Implemnetation Draft. The Packet Padding octets
which were either zero or filled with pseudo-random values MAY now
have some valid data like timestamps, statistics, service PDUs and so
on.
The Session-Sender Test Session data packet formats are provided
