Bulk Network Data Collection System
2013
Collecting large amounts of data from network infrastructure devices
has never been very easy. Existing methods generate CPU and memory
loads that may be unacceptable, the output varies across
implementations and can be difficult to parse, and these methods are
often difficult to scale. I2RS programmatic interfacing with the
routing system may exacerbate this problem: state needs to be
collected from nodes and fed to consumers participating in the control
plane that may not be physically close to the nodes. This state
includes not only control plane information, but elements of the data
plane that have a direct impact on control plane behavior, like
traffic engineering. This document outlines a set of use cases
requiring a flexible framework to collect routing system data, and the
features and functionality needed to make such a framework useful for
these use cases.
