pipeline counters model, proposal to report percentage utilization for ACLs #428

Closed dshokarev closed 2 months ago

dshokarev commented 3 years ago

Hello OC Team!

This is a vendor question / suggestion (from Juniper Networks).

There are 4 attributes defined in this model https://github.com/openconfig/public/blob/master/release/models/platform/openconfig-platform-pipeline-counters.yang

acl-memory-total-entries acl-memory-used-entries acl-memory-total-bytes acl-memory-used-bytes

In many vendor's implementations, ACLs / Filters are not using one single table of a fixed format (column width and row count), instead there are multiple tables with various internal data structures and these tables may not be of fixed format.

Would it make more sense to report acl-memory-utilization percentage metric instead of those 4 currently defined?

And leave to the vendor how acl-memory-utilization is computed over various internal metrics.

Thanks, Dmitry.
