RE: I-D ACTION:draft-ietf-disman-remops-mib-v2-09.txt

Kenneth and Juergen,

Congratulatons on your internet draft on reporting ping/traceroute
results being in last call.

Basically, it is a good draft. I  do have one concern. When you do a UDP
or ICMP traceroute from any node, yoy typically get three delay
approximations for each stimulus-response with increasing TTLs. Granted
that this is an approximation, I did not see a mechanism for reporting
this inforation in your internet draft. Maybe I missed it and it is
there?

Best regards,

Rajesh Kumar
