As I understand the question we are only talking about the case where the datatype and semantics are identical for IANA-IE and (IANA-IE & 0x8000) and not some weird second IE space. I'm OK with Brian's suggestion of EP SHOULD NOT and CP MUST. I also think it is worth stating explicitly. I'm pretty sure my CP will not currently accept IEs sent this way, but that can be fixed easily enough. -Andrew On 09/06/2012 08:29 AM, Brian Trammell wrote: > Hi, Paul, > > Yep. > > I would say an EP SHOULD NOT export such a thing, but that a CP MUST accept it as an IANA IE. > > Is this a note for 5101-bis? > > Cheers, > > Brian > > On Sep 6, 2012, at 12:46 PM, Paul Aitken wrote: > >> Since enterprise ID zero is reserved for IANA (per http://www.iana.org/assignments/enterprise-numbers), >> >> and since the IPFIX config model defines "ieEnterpriseNumber" with zero == IANA : >> >> ieId, ieName, ieEnterpriseNumber: The property to be matched is >> specified by either ieId or ieName, specifying the ID or name of >> the Information Element, respectively.
