Hi,

That was exactly the idea when we started to implement the CLMP.

Hi Stephan,

what exactly does the Command Measurement Point (CMP) do? In what
context this tool is developed?


Many monitoring tools return time-series data, like:

<timestamp1> <value1>
<timestamp2> <value2>

etc.

I think that instead of developing and installing multiple monitoring points (MPs) for individual monitoring tools (ping, owamp, etc.), it may be convenient to have a single MP that can call and retrieve results from an arbitrary monitoring tool.

Clearly some monitoring tools require richer semantics of requests and queries. But for many simple monitoring tools it is sufficient to have
one common MP to access them.

You may look at example requests and responses included in CMP. Any tool can be called with any arguments locally or remotely.

Regards,

Sven
