RFC 5102 and RFC 5102bis are in my view not good example for
information models. They essentially defines some core data types and
the mechanisms to define derived data types, called 'Information
Elements' in IPFIX. The core of IPFIX does not even know about
structured data types (RFC 6313 added this capability). So yes, the
problem IPFIX initially addressed was rather simple.
