RFC 6038: Two-Way Active Measurement Protocol (TWAMP) Reflect Octets and Symmetrical Size Features

In plain English — editorial summary, not part of the RFC

This memo describes two closely related features for the core specification of the Two-Way Active Measurement Protocol (TWAMP): an optional capability where the responding host returns some of the command octets or padding octets to the sender, and an optional sender packet format that ensures equal test packet sizes are used in both directions.
