RFC 7536                     LMAP Use Cases                     May 20151.  Introduction   This document describes two use cases for the Large-scale Measurement   of Broadband Performance (LMAP).  The use cases contained in this   document are (1) the Internet Service Provider Use Case and (2) the   Regulator Use Case.  In the first, a network operator wants to   understand the performance of the network and the quality experienced   by customers, while in the second, a regulator wants to provide   information on the performance of the ISPs in their jurisdiction.   There are other use cases that are not the focus of the initial LMAP   work (for example, end users would like to use measurements to help   identify problems in their home network and to monitor the   performance of their broadband provider); it is expected that the   same mechanisms are applicable.   Large-scale measurements raise several security concerns, including   privacy issues.  These are summarized inSection 7 and considered in   further detail in [Framework].2.  Use Cases   From the LMAP perspective, there is no difference between fixed   service and mobile (cellular) service used for Internet access.   Hence, like measurements will take place on both fixed and mobile   networks.  Fixed services include technologies like Digital   Subscriber Line (DSL), Cable, and Carrier Ethernet.  Mobile services   include all those advertised as 2G, 3G, 4G, and Long Term Evolution   (LTE).  A metric defined to measure end-to-end services will execute   similarly on all access technologies.  Other metrics may be access   technology specific.  The LMAP architecture covers both IPv4 and IPv6   networks.2.1.  Internet Service Provider (ISP) Use Case   A network operator needs to understand the performance of their   networks, the performance of the suppliers (downstream and upstream   networks), the performance of Internet access services, and the   impact that such performance has on the experience of their   customers.  Largely, the processes that ISPs operate (which are based   on network measurement) include:   o  Identifying, isolating, and fixing problems, which may be in the      network, with the service provider, or in the end-user equipment.      Such problems may be common to a point in the network topology      (e.g., a single exchange), common to a vendor or equipment type      (e.g., line card or home gateway), or unique to a single user line      (e.g., copper access).  Part of this process may also be helpingLinsner, et al.               Informational                     [Page 3]

RFC 7536                     LMAP Use Cases                     May 2015      users understand whether the problem exists in their home network      or with a third-party application service instead of with their      broadband (BB) product.   o  Design and planning.  Through monitoring the end-user experience,      the ISP can design and plan their network to ensure specified      levels of user experience.  Services may be moved closer to end      users, services upgraded, the impact of QoS assessed, or more      capacity deployed at certain locations.  Service Level Agreements      (SLAs) may be defined at network or product boundaries.   o  Understanding the quality experienced by customers.  The network      operator would like to gain better insight into the end-to-end      performance experienced by its customers.  "End-to-end" could, for      instance, incorporate home and enterprise networks, and the impact      of peering, caching, and Content Delivery Networks (CDNs).   o  Understanding the impact and operation of new devices and      technology.  As a new product is deployed, or a new technology      introduced into the network, it is essential that its operation      and its impact are measured.  This also helps to quantify the      advantage that the new technology is bringing and support the      business case for larger roll-out.2.2.  Regulator Use Case   A regulator may want to evaluate the performance of the Internet   access services offered by operators.   While each jurisdiction responds to distinct consumer, industry, and   regulatory concerns, much commonality exists in the need to produce   datasets that can be used to compare multiple Internet access service   providers, diverse technical solutions, geographic and regional   distributions, and marketed and provisioned levels and combinations   of broadband Internet access services.   Regulators may want to publish performance measures of different ISPs   as background information for end users.  They may also want to track   the growth of high-speed broadband deployment, or to monitor the   traffic management practices of Internet providers.   A regulator's role in the development and enforcement of broadband   Internet access service policies requires that the measurement   approaches meet a high level of verifiability, accuracy, and   provider-independence to support valid and meaningful comparisons of   Internet access service performance.  Standards can help regulators'Linsner, et al.               Informational                     [Page 4]

RFC 7536                     LMAP Use Cases                     May 2015   shared needs for scalable, cost-effective, scientifically robust   solutions to the measurement and collection of broadband Internet   access service performance information.3.  Details of ISP Use Case3.1.  Understanding the Quality Experienced by Customers   Operators want to understand the quality of experience (QoE) of their   broadband customers.  The understanding can be gained through a   "panel", i.e., measurement probes deployed to several customers.  A   probe is a device or piece of software that makes measurements and   reports the results, under the control of the measurement system.   Implementation options are discussed inSection 5.  The panel needs   to include a representative sample of the operator's technologies and   broadband speeds.  For instance, it might encompass speeds ranging   from below 8 Mbps to over 100 Mbps.  The operator would like the   end-to-end view of the service, rather than just the access portion.   This involves relating the pure network parameters to something like   a 'mean opinion score' [MOS], which will be service dependent (for   instance, web-browsing QoE is largely determined by latency above a   few Mbps).   An operator will also want compound metrics such as "reliability",   which might involve packet loss, DNS failures, retraining of the   line, video streaming under-runs, etc.   The operator really wants to understand the end-to-end service   experience.  However, the home network (Ethernet, Wi-Fi, powerline)   is highly variable and outside its control.  To date, operators (and   regulators) have instead measured performance from the home gateway.   However, mobile operators clearly must include the wireless link in   the measurement.   Active measurements are the most obvious approach, i.e., special   measurement traffic is sent by -- and to -- the probe.  In order not   to degrade the service of the customer, the measurement data should   only be sent when the user is silent, and it shouldn't reduce the   customer's data allowance.  The other approach is passive   measurements on the customer's ordinary traffic; the advantage is   that it measures what the customer actually does, but it creates   extra variability (different traffic mixes give different results)   and, in particular, it raises privacy concerns.  [RFC6973] discusses   privacy considerations for Internet protocols in general, while   [Framework] discusses them specifically for large-scale measurement   systems.Linsner, et al.               Informational                     [Page 5]

RFC 7536                     LMAP Use Cases                     May 2015   From an operator's viewpoint, understanding customer experience   enables it to offer better services.  Also, simple metrics can be   more easily understood by senior managers who make investment   decisions and by sales and marketing.3.2.  Understanding the Impact and Operation of New Devices and      Technology   Another type of measurement is to test new capabilities before they   are rolled out.  For example, the operator may want to:   o  Check whether a customer can be upgraded to a new broadband      option.   o  Understand the impact of IPv6 before it is made available to      customers.  Questions such as these could be assessed: Will v6      packets get through?  What will the latency be to major websites?      What transition mechanisms will be most appropriate?   o  Check whether a new capability can be signaled using TCP options      (how often it will be blocked by a middlebox -- along the lines of      the experiments described in [Extend-TCP]).   o  Investigate a QoS mechanism (e.g., checking whether Diffserv      markings are respected on some path).3.3.  Design and Planning   Operators can use large-scale measurements to help with their network   planning -- proactive activities to improve the network.   For example, by probing from several different vantage points the   operator can see that a particular group of customers has performance   below that expected during peak hours, which should help with   capacity planning.  Naturally, operators already have tools to help   with this -- a network element reports its individual utilization   (and perhaps other parameters).  However, making measurements across   a path rather than at a point may make it easier to understand the   network.  There may also be parameters like bufferbloat that aren't   currently reported by equipment and/or that are intrinsically path   metrics.   With information gained from measurement results, capacity planning   and network design can be more effective.  Such planning typically   uses simulations to emulate the measured performance of the current   network and understand the likely impact of new capacity and   potential changes to the topology.  Simulations, informed by dataLinsner, et al.               Informational                     [Page 6]

RFC 7536                     LMAP Use Cases                     May 2015   from a limited panel of probes, can help quantify the advantage that   a new technology brings and support the business case for larger   roll-out.   It may also be possible to use probes to run stress tests for risk   analysis.  For example, an operator could run a carefully controlled   and limited experiment in which probing is used to assess the   potential impact if some new application becomes popular.3.4.  Monitoring Service Level Agreements   Another example is that the operator may want to monitor performance   where there is a Service Level Agreement (SLA).  This could be with   its own customers; in particular, enterprises may have an SLA.  The   operator can proactively spot when the service is degrading near the   point of the SLA limit and get information that will enable more   informed conversations with the customer at contract renewal.   An operator may also want to monitor the performance of its   suppliers, to check whether they meet their SLA or to compare two   suppliers if it is dual-sourcing.  This could include its transit   operator, CDNs, peering, video source, or local network provider for   a global operator in countries where it doesn't have its own network.   A virtual operator may monitor the whole underlying network.   Through a better understanding of its own network and its suppliers,   the operator should be able to focus investment more effectively --   in the right place at the right time with the right technology.3.5.  Identifying, Isolating, and Fixing Network Problems   Operators can use large-scale measurements to help identify a fault   more rapidly and decide how to solve it.   Operators already have Test and Diagnostic tools, where a network   element reports some problem or failure to a management system.   However, many issues are not caused by a point failure but something   wider and so will trigger too many alarms, while other issues will   cause degradation rather than failure and so not trigger any alarm.   Large-scale measurements can help provide a more nuanced view that   helps network management to identify and fix problems more rapidly   and accurately.  The network management tools may use simulations to   emulate the network and so help identify a fault and assess possible   solutions.Linsner, et al.               Informational                     [Page 7]

RFC 7536                     LMAP Use Cases                     May 2015   An operator can obtain useful information without measuring the   performance on every broadband line.  By measuring a subset, the   operator can identify problems that affect a group of customers.  For   example, the issue could be at a shared point in the network topology   (such as an exchange), or common to a vendor, or equipment type; for   instance, [IETF85-Plenary] describes a case where a particular home   gateway upgrade had caused a (mistaken!) drop in line rate.   A more extensive deployment of the measurement capability to every   broadband line would enable an operator to identify issues unique to   a single customer.  Overall, large-scale measurements can help an   operator fix the fault more rapidly and/or allow the affected   customers to be informed of what's happening.  More accurate   information enables the operator to reassure customers and take more   rapid and effective action to cure the problem.   Often, customers experience poor broadband due to problems in the   home network -- the ISP's network is fine.  For example, they may   have moved too far away from their wireless access point.   Anecdotally, a large fraction of customer calls about fixed BB   problems are due to in-home wireless issues.  These issues are   expensive and frustrating for an operator, as they are extremely hard   to diagnose and solve.  The operator would like to narrow down   whether the problem is in the home (a problem with the home network,   edge device, or home gateway), in the operator's network, or with an   application service.  The operator would like two capabilities:   firstly, self-help tools that customers use to improve their own   service or understand its performance better -- for example, to   reposition their devices for better Wi-Fi coverage; and secondly,   on-demand tests that the operator can run instantly, so that the call   center person answering the phone (or e-chat) could trigger a test   and get the result while the customer is still in an online session.4.  Details of Regulator Use Case4.1.  Providing Transparent Performance Information   Some regulators publish information about the quality of the various   Internet access services provided in their national market.  Quality   information about service offers could include speed, delay, and   jitter.  Such information can be published to facilitate end users'   choice of service provider and offer.  Regulators may check the   accuracy of the marketing claims of Internet service providers and   may also encourage ISPs to all use the same metrics in their service   level contracts.  The goal of these transparency mechanisms is to   promote competition for end users and potentially also help content,   application, service, and device providers develop their Internet   offerings.Linsner, et al.               Informational                     [Page 8]

RFC 7536                     LMAP Use Cases                     May 2015   The published information needs to be:   o  Accurate - the measurement results must be correct and not      influenced by errors or side effects.  The results should be      reproducible and consistent over time.   o  Comparable - common metrics should be used across different ISPs      and service offerings, and over time, so that measurement results      can be compared.   o  Meaningful - the metrics used for measurements need to reflect      what end users value about their broadband Internet access      service.   o  Reliable - the number and distribution of measurement agents, and      the statistical processing of the raw measurement data, need to be      appropriate.   In practical terms, the regulators may measure network performance   from users towards multiple content and application providers,   including dedicated test measurement servers.  Measurement probes are   distributed to a 'panel' of selected end users.  The panel covers all   the operators and packages in the market, spread over urban,   suburban, and rural areas, and often includes both fixed and mobile   Internet access.  Periodic tests running on the probes can, for   example, measure actual speed at peak and off-peak hours, but can   also measure other detailed quality metrics like delay and jitter.   Collected data goes afterwards through statistical analysis, deriving   estimates for the whole population.  Summary information, such as a   service quality index, is published regularly, perhaps alongside more   detailed information.   The regulator can also facilitate end users to monitor the   performance of their own broadband Internet access service.  They   might use this information to check that the performance meets that   specified in their contract or to understand whether their current   subscription is the most appropriate.4.2.  Measuring Broadband Deployment   Regulators may also want to monitor the improvement over time of   actual broadband Internet access performance in a specific country or   a region.  The motivation is often to evaluate the effect of the   stimulated growth over time, when government has set a strategic goal   for high-speed broadband deployment, whether in absolute terms or   benchmarked against other countries.  An example of such an   initiative is [DAE].  The actual measurements can be made in the same   way as described inSection 4.1.Linsner, et al.               Informational                     [Page 9]

RFC 7536                     LMAP Use Cases                     May 20154.3.  Monitoring Traffic Management Practices   A regulator may want to monitor traffic management practices or   compare the performance of Internet access service with specialized   services offered in parallel to, but separate from, Internet access   service  (for example, IPTV).  A regulator could monitor for   departures from application agnosticism such as blocking or   throttling of traffic from specific applications, or preferential   treatment of specific applications.  A measurement system could send,   or passively monitor, application-specific traffic and then measure   in detail the transfer of the different packets.  While it is   relatively easy to measure port blocking, how to detect other types   of differentiated treatment is a research topic in itself.  The   "Glasnost: Enabling End Users to Detect Traffic Differentiation"   paper [M-Labs_NSDI-2010] and follow-on tool "Glasnost" [Glasnost]   provide an example of work in this area.   A regulator could also monitor the performance of the broadband   service over time, to try and detect if the specialized service is   provided at the expense of the Internet access service.  Comparison   between ISPs or between different countries may also be relevant for   this kind of evaluation.   The motivation for a regulator monitoring such traffic management   practices is that regulatory approaches related to net neutrality and   the open Internet have been introduced in some jurisdictions.   Examples of such efforts are the Internet policy as outlined by the   Body of European Regulators for Electronic Communications guidelines   for quality of service [BEREC-Guidelines] and the US FCC's   "Preserving the Open Internet" Report and Order [FCC-R&O].  Although   legal challenges can change the status of policy, the take-away for   LMAP purposes is that policy-makers are looking for measurement   solutions to assist them in discovering biased treatment of traffic   flows.  The exact definitions and requirements vary from one   jurisdiction to another.5.  Implementation Options   There are several ways of implementing a measurement system.  The   choice may be influenced by the details of the particular use case   and what the most important criteria are for the regulator, ISP, or   third party operating the measurement system.   One type of probe is a special hardware device that is connected   directly to the home gateway.  The devices are deployed to a   carefully selected panel of end users, and they perform measurements   according to a defined schedule.  The schedule can run throughout the   day, to allow continuous assessment of the network.  Careful designLinsner, et al.               Informational                    [Page 10]

RFC 7536                     LMAP Use Cases                     May 2015   ensures that measurements do not detrimentally impact the home user   experience or corrupt the results by testing when the user is also   using the broadband line.  The system is therefore tightly controlled   by the operator of the measurement system.  One advantage of this   approach is that it is possible to get reliable benchmarks for the   performance of a network with only a few devices.  One disadvantage   is that it would be expensive to deploy hardware devices on a mass   scale sufficient to understand the performance of the network at the   granularity of a single broadband user.   Another type of probe involves implementing the measurement   capability as a webpage or an "app" that end users are encouraged to   download onto their mobile phone or computing device.  Measurements   are triggered by the end user; for example, the user interface may   have a button to "test my broadband now."  One advantage of this   approach is that the performance is measured to the end user, rather   than to the home gateway, and so includes the home network.  Another   difference is that the system is much more loosely controlled, as the   panel of end users and the schedule of tests are determined by the   end users themselves rather than the measurement system.  While this   approach makes it easier to make measurements on a large scale, it is   harder to get comparable benchmarks, as the measurements are affected   by the home network; also, the population is self-selecting and so   potentially biased towards those who think they have a problem.  This   could be alleviated by encouraging widespread downloading of the app   and careful post-processing of the results to reduce biases.   There are several other possibilities.  For example, as a variant on   the first approach, the measurement capability could be implemented   as software embedded in the home gateway, which would make it more   viable to have the capability on every user line.  As a variant on   the second approach, the end user could initiate measurements in   response to a request from the measurement system.   The operator of the measurement system should be careful to ensure   that measurements do not detrimentally impact users.  Potential   issues include the following:   *  Measurement traffic generated on a particular user's line may      impact that end user's quality of experience.  The danger is      greater for measurements that generate a lot of traffic over a      lengthy period.   *  The measurement traffic may impact that particular user's bill or      traffic cap.Linsner, et al.               Informational                    [Page 11]

RFC 7536                     LMAP Use Cases                     May 2015   *  The measurement traffic from several end users may, in      combination, congest a shared link.   *  The traffic associated with the control and reporting of      measurements may overload the network.  The danger is greater      where the traffic associated with many end users is synchronized.6.  Conclusions   Large-scale measurements of broadband performance are useful for both   network operators and regulators.  Network operators would like to   use measurements to help them better understand the quality   experienced by their customers, identify problems in the network, and   design network improvements.  Regulators would like to use   measurements to help promote competition between network operators,   stimulate the growth of broadband access, and monitor 'net   neutrality'.  There are other use cases that are not the focus of the   initial LMAP charter (although it is expected that the mechanisms   developed would be readily applied); for example, end users would   like to use measurements to help identify problems in their home   network and to monitor the performance of their broadband provider.   From consideration of the various use cases, several common themes   emerge, while there are also some detailed differences.  These   characteristics guide the development of LMAP's framework,   information model, and protocol.   A measurement capability is needed across a wide number of   heterogeneous environments.  Tests may be needed in the home network,   in the ISP's network, or beyond; they may be measuring a fixed or   wireless network; they may measure just the access network or across   several networks.   There is a role for both standardized and non-standardized   measurements.  For example, a regulator would like to publish   standardized performance metrics for all network operators, while an   ISP may need their own tests to understand some feature special to   their network.  Most use cases need active measurements, which create   and measure specific test traffic, but some need passive measurements   of the end user's traffic.   Regardless of the tests being operated, there needs to be a way to   demand or schedule the tests.  Most use cases need a regular schedule   of measurements, but sometimes ad hoc testing is needed -- for   example, for troubleshooting.  It needs to be ensured that   measurements do not affect the user experience and are not affected   by user traffic (unless desired).  In addition, there needs to be aLinsner, et al.

RFC 7536                     LMAP Use Cases                     May 2015   common way to collect the results.  Standardization of this control   and reporting functionality allows the operator of a measurement   system to buy the various components from different vendors.   After the measurement results are collected, they need to be   understood and analyzed.  Often, it is sufficient to measure only a   small subset of end users, but per-line fault diagnosis requires the   ability to test every individual line.  Analysis requires accurate   definition and understanding of where the test points are, as well as   contextual information about the topology, line, product, and the   subscriber's contract.  The actual analysis of results is beyond the   scope of LMAP, as is the key challenge of how to integrate the   measurement system into a network operator's existing tools for   diagnostics and network planning.   Finally, the test data, along with any associated network, product,   or subscriber contract data, is commercial or private information and   needs to be protected.7.  Security Considerations   Large-scale measurements raise several potential security, privacy   (data protection) [RFC6973], and business sensitivity issues:   1. A malicious party may try to gain control of probes to launch DoS      (Denial of Service) attacks at a target.  A DoS attack could be      targeted at a particular end user or set of end users, a certain      network, or a specific service provider.   2. A malicious party may try to gain control of probes to create a      platform for pervasive monitoring [RFC7258] or for more targeted      monitoring.  [RFC7258] summarizes the threats as follows: "An      attack may change the content of the communication, record the      content or external characteristics of the communication, or      through correlation with other communication events, reveal      information the parties did not intend to be revealed."  For      example, a malicious party could distribute to the probes a new      measurement test that recorded (and later reported) information of      maleficent interest.  Similar concerns also arise if the      measurement results are intercepted or corrupted.      *  From the end user's perspective, the concerns include a         malicious party monitoring the traffic they send and receive,         who they communicate with, the websites they visit, and such         information about their behavior as when they are at home and         the location of their devices.  Some of the concerns may be         greater when the probe is on the end user's device rather than         on their home gateway.Linsner, et al.               Informational                    [Page 13]

RFC 7536                     LMAP Use Cases                     May 2015      *  From the network operator's perspective, the concerns include         the leakage of commercially sensitive information about the         design and operation of their network, their customers, and         suppliers.  Some threats are indirect; for example, the         attacker could reconnoiter potential weaknesses, such as open         ports and paths through the network, which enabled it to launch         an attack later.      *  From the regulator's perspective, the concerns include         distortion of the measurement tests or alteration of the         measurement results.  Also, a malicious network operator could         try to identify the broadband lines that the regulator was         measuring and prioritize that traffic ("game the system").   3. Another potential issue is a measurement system that does not      obtain the end user's informed consent, fails to specify a      specific purpose in the consent, or uses the collected information      for secondary uses beyond those specified.   4. Another potential issue is a measurement system that does not      indicate who is responsible for the collection and processing of      personal data and who is responsible for fulfilling the rights of      users.  The responsible party (often termed the "data controller")      should, as good practice, consider such issues as defining:      o  the purpose for which the data is collected and used,      o  how the data is stored, accessed, and processed,      o  how long the data is retained, and      o  how the end user can view, update, and even delete their         personal data.      If anonymized personal data is shared with a third party, the data      controller should consider the possibility that the third party      can de-anonymize it by combining it with other information.   These security and privacy issues will need to be considered   carefully by any measurement system.  In the context of LMAP,   [Framework] considers them further, along with some potential   mitigations.  Other LMAP documents will specify one or more protocols   that enable the measurement system to instruct a probe about what   measurements to make and that enable the probe to report the   measurement results.  Those documents will need to discuss solutions   to the security and privacy issues.  However, the protocol documentsLinsner, et al.               Informational                    [Page 14]

Many use cases can be envisaged, and earlier in this document we   described some likely ones for the network operator and regulator.8.
