This memo discusses the use of synthetic sources (or 'active' probes)
within the context of remote performance monitoring. It discusses
the importance of developing an 'active' probe monitoring capability
within the Internet. It develops a framework for synthetic sources
in performance monitoring against the backdrop of previous, related
work within the IETF. It further reports on the broad agreements
reached in the rperfman BOF held in Adelaide in March 2000 on
furthering work in this area within the IETF.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
