Abstract

This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB) for use with network management protocols in the Internet community. This memo obsoletes RFC 2239, "Definitions of Managed Objects for IEEE 802.3 Medium Attachment Units (MAUs) using SMIv2". This memo extends that specification by including management information useful for the management of 1000 Mb/s MAUs.

Ethernet technology, as defined by the 802.3 Working Group of the IEEE, continues to evolve, with scalable increases in speed, new types of cabling and interfaces, and new features. This evolution may require changes in the managed objects in order to reflect this new functionality. This document, as with other documents issued by this working group, reflects a certain stage in the evolution of Ethernet technology. In the future, this document might be revised,

or new documents might be issued by the Ethernet Interfaces and Hub MIB Working Group, in order to reflect the evolution of Ethernet technology.

1 Introduction

This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB) for use with network management protocols in the Internet community. In particular, it defines objects for managing IEEE 802.3 Medium Attachment Units (MAUs).

This memo also includes a MIB module. This MIB module extends the list of managed objects specified in the earlier version of this MIB: RFC 2239 [21].

The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in [20].

2 The SNMP Management Framework

The SNMP Management Framework presently consists of five major components:

Managed objects are accessed via a virtual information store, termed the Management Information Base or MIB. Objects in the MIB are defined using the mechanisms defined in the SMI.

This memo specifies a MIB module that is compliant to the SMIv2. A MIB conforming to the SMIv1 can be produced through the appropriate translations. The resulting translated MIB must be semantically equivalent, except where objects or events are omitted because no translation is possible (use of Counter64). Some machine readable information in SMIv2 will be converted into textual descriptions in SMIv1 during the translation process. However, this loss of machine readable information is not considered to change the semantics of the MIB.

3 Overview

3.1 Relationship to RFC 2239

This MIB is intended to be a superset of that defined by RFC 2239 [21], which will go to historic status. This MIB includes all of the objects contained in that MIB, plus several new ones which provide additional capabilities. Implementors are encouraged to support all applicable conformance groups in order to make the best use of the new functionality provided by this MIB. The new objects provide management support for:

3.2 Relationship to RFC 1515

RFC 2239 was a replacement for RFC 1515 [22], which is now historic. RFC 2239 defined a superset of RFC 1515 which contained all of the objects defined in RFC 1515, plus several new ones which provided additional capabilities. The new objects in RFC 2239 provided management support for:

3.3 MAU Management

Instances of these object types represent attributes of an IEEE 802.3 MAU. Several types of MAUs are defined in the IEEE 802.3 CSMA/CD standard [16]. These MAUs may be connected to IEEE 802.3 repeaters or to 802.3 (Ethernet-like) interfaces. For convenience this document refers to these devices as "repeater MAUs" and "interface MAUs."

The definitions presented here are based on Section 30.5, "Layer Management for 10, 100 & 1000 Mb/s Medium Attachment Units (MAUs)", and Annex 30A, "GDMO Specifications for 802.3 managed object classes" of IEEE Std. 802.3, 1998 edition [16]. That specification includes definitions for 10Mb/s, 100Mb/s and 1000Mb/s devices. This specification is intended to serve the same purpose: to provide for management of all types of Ethernet/802.3 MAUs.

3.4 Relationship to Other MIBs

It is assumed that an agent implementing this MIB will also implement (at least) the 'system' group defined in MIB-II [18]. The following sections identify other MIBs that such an agent should implement.

3.4.1 Relationship to the Interfaces MIB.

The sections of this document that define interface MAU-related objects specify an extension to the Interfaces MIB [19]. An agent implementing these interface-MAU related objects MUST also implement the relevant groups of Interface MIB. The value of the object ifMauIfIndex is the same as the value of 'ifIndex' used to instantiate the interface to which the given MAU is connected.

It is expected that an agent implementing the interface-MAU related objects in this MIB will also implement the Ethernet-like Interfaces MIB, [23].

(Note that repeater ports are not represented as interfaces in the Interface MIB.)

3.4.2 Relationship to the 802.3 Repeater MIB

The section of this document that defines repeater MAU-related objects specifies an extension to the 802.3 Repeater MIB defined in [17]. An agent implementing these repeater-MAU related objects MUST also implement the 802.3 Repeater MIB.

The values of 'rpMauGroupIndex' and 'rpMauPortIndex' used to instantiate a repeater MAU variable SHALL be the same as the values of 'rptrPortGroupIndex' and 'rptrPortIndex' used to instantiate the port to which the given MAU is connected.

3.5 Management of Internal MAUs

In some situations, a MAU can be "internal" -- i.e., its
functionality is implemented entirely within a device. For example, a managed repeater may contain an internal repeater-MAU and/or an internal interface-MAU through which management communications originating on one of the repeater's external ports pass in order to reach the management agent associated with the repeater. Such internal MAUs may or may not be managed. If they are managed, objects describing their attributes should appear in the appropriate MIB subtree: dot3RpMauBasicGroup for internal repeater-MAUs and dot3IfMauBasicGroup for internal interface-MAUs.

The value other(1) is returned if the MAU is in a state other than one of the states 2 through 6.


Page 15

The value unknown(2) is returned when the MAU's true state is unknown; for example, when it is being initialized.

A MAU in the operational(3) state is fully functional, operates, and passes signals to its attached DTE or repeater port in accordance to its specification.

A MAU in standby(4) state forces DI and CI to idle and the media transmitter to idle or fault, if supported. Standby(4) mode only applies to link type MAUs. The state of
rpMauMediaAvailable is unaffected.

A MAU in shutdown(5) state assumes the same condition on DI, CI, and the media transmitter as though it were powered down or not connected. The MAU MAY return other(1) value for the rpMauJabberState and rpMauMediaAvailable objects when it is in this state. For an AUI, this state will remove power from the AUI.

Setting this variable to the value reset(6) resets the MAU in the same manner as a power-off, power-on cycle of at least one-half second would. The agent is not required to return the value reset (6).

Setting this variable to the value
operational(3), standby(4), or shutdown(5) causes the MAU to assume the respective state except that setting a mixing-type MAU or an AUI to standby(4) will cause the MAU to enter the shutdown state."

          STATUS      current
          DESCRIPTION "If the MAU is a link or fiber type (FOIRL,
                      10BASE-T, 10BASE-F) then this is equivalent to
                      the link test fail state/low light function.
                      For an AUI or a coax (including broadband) MAU
                      this indicates whether or not loopback is
                      detected on the DI circuit.  The value of this
                      attribute persists between packets for MAU types
                      AUI, 10BASE5, 10BASE2, 10BROAD36, and 10BASE-FP.

The value other(1) is returned if the
mediaAvailable state is not one of 2 through 11.

The value unknown(2) is returned when the MAU's true state is unknown; for example, when it is being initialized. At power-up or following a reset, the value of this attribute will be unknown for AUI, coax, and 10BASE-FP MAUs. For these MAUs loopback will be tested on each transmission during which no collision is detected. If DI is receiving input when DO returns to IDL after a transmission and there has been no collision during the transmission then loopback will be detected. The value of this attribute will only change during non-collided transmissions for AUI, coax, and 10BASE-FP MAUs.

For 100Mbps and 1000Mbps MAUs, the enumerations match the states within the respective link integrity state diagrams, fig 32-16, 23-12 and 24-15 of sections 32, 23 and 24 of [16]. Any MAU which implements management of
auto-negotiation will map remote fault indication to remote fault.

The value available(3) indicates that the link, light, or loopback is normal. The value notAvailable(4) indicates link loss, low light, or no loopback.


Page 17

The value remoteFault(5) indicates that a fault has been detected at the remote end of the link. This value applies to 10BASE-FB, 100BASE-T4 Far End Fault Indication and non-specified remote faults from a system running auto-negotiation. The values remoteJabber(7), remoteLinkLoss(8), and remoteTest(9) SHOULD be used instead of remoteFault(5) where the reason for remote fault is identified in the remote signaling protocol.

The value invalidSignal(6) indicates that an invalid signal has been received from the other end of the link. InvalidSignal(6) applies only to MAUs of type 10BASE-FB.

Where an IEEE Std 802.3u-1995 clause 22 MII is present, a logic one in the remote fault bit (reference section 22.2.4.2.8 of that document) maps to the value remoteFault(5), and a logic zero in the link status bit (reference section 22.2.4.2.10 of that document) maps to the value notAvailable(4). The value notAvailable(4) takes precedence over the value remoteFault(5).

Any MAU that implements management of clause 37 Auto-Negotiation will map the received Remote Fault (RF1 and RF2) bit values for Offline to offline(10), Link Failure to remoteFault(5) and Auto-Negotiation Error to autoNegError(11)."

                      of the enumerated values.

The value other(1) is returned if the MAU is in a state other than one of the states 2 through 6.

The value unknown(2) is returned when the MAU's true state is unknown; for example, when it is being initialized.


Page 23

A MAU in the operational(3) state is fully functional, operates, and passes signals to its attached DTE or repeater port in accordance to its specification.

A MAU in standby(4) state forces DI and CI to idle and the media transmitter to idle or fault, if supported. Standby(4) mode only applies to link type MAUs. The state of
ifMauMediaAvailable is unaffected.

A MAU in shutdown(5) state assumes the same condition on DI, CI, and the media transmitter as though it were powered down or not connected. The MAU MAY return other(1) value for the ifMauJabberState and ifMauMediaAvailable objects when it is in this state. For an AUI, this state will remove power from the AUI.

Setting this variable to the value reset(6) resets the MAU in the same manner as a power-off, power-on cycle of at least one-half second would. The agent is not required to return the value reset (6).

Setting this variable to the value
operational(3), standby(4), or shutdown(5) causes the MAU to assume the respective state except that setting a mixing-type MAU or an AUI to standby(4) will cause the MAU to enter the shutdown state."

          STATUS      current
          DESCRIPTION "If the MAU is a link or fiber type (FOIRL,
                      10BASE-T, 10BASE-F) then this is equivalent to
                      the link test fail state/low light function.
                      For an AUI or a coax (including broadband) MAU
                      this indicates whether or not loopback is
                      detected on the DI circuit.  The value of this
                      attribute persists between packets for MAU types
                      AUI, 10BASE5, 10BASE2, 10BROAD36, and 10BASE-FP.

The value other(1) is returned if the
mediaAvailable state is not one of 2 through 11.

The value unknown(2) is returned when the MAU's true state is unknown; for example, when it is being initialized. At power-up or following a reset, the value of this attribute will be unknown for AUI, coax, and 10BASE-FP MAUs. For these MAUs loopback will be tested on each transmission during which no collision is detected. If DI is receiving input when DO returns to IDL after a transmission and there has been no collision during the transmission then loopback will be detected. The value of this attribute will only change during non-collided transmissions for AUI, coax, and 10BASE-FP MAUs.

For 100Mbps and 1000Mbps MAUs, the enumerations match the states within the respective link integrity state diagrams, fig 32-16, 23-12 and 24-15 of sections 32, 23 and 24 of [16]. Any MAU which implements management of
auto-negotiation will map remote fault indication to remote fault.

The value available(3) indicates that the link, light, or loopback is normal. The value notAvailable(4) indicates link loss, low light, or no loopback.

The value remoteFault(5) indicates that a fault has been detected at the remote end of the link. This value applies to 10BASE-FB, 100BASE-T4 Far End Fault Indication and non-specified remote faults from a system running auto-negotiation.


Page 25

The values remoteJabber(7), remoteLinkLoss(8), and remoteTest(9) SHOULD be used instead of remoteFault(5) where the reason for remote fault is identified in the remote signaling protocol.

The value invalidSignal(6) indicates that an invalid signal has been received from the other end of the link. InvalidSignal(6) applies only to MAUs of type 10BASE-FB.

Where an IEEE Std 802.3u-1995 clause 22 MII is present, a logic one in the remote fault bit (reference section 22.2.4.2.8 of that document) maps to the value remoteFault(5), and a logic zero in the link status bit (reference section 22.2.4.2.10 of that document) maps to the value notAvailable(4). The value notAvailable(4) takes precedence over the value remoteFault(5).

Any MAU that implements management of clause 37 Auto-Negotiation will map the received RF1 and RF2 bit values for Offline to offline(10), Link Failure to remoteFault(5) and Auto-Negotiation Error to autoNegError(11)."

This object represents the

If auto-negotiation is implemented and enabled for this MAU, the operational type of the MAU is determined by auto-negotiation, and the value of this object denotes the type to which the MAU will automatically revert if/when
auto-negotiation is later disabled.

NOTE TO IMPLEMENTORS: It may be necessary to

provide for underlying hardware implementations which do not follow the exact behavior specified above. In particular, when
ifMauAutoNegAdminStatus transitions from enabled to disabled, the agent implementation MUST ensure that the operational type of the MAU (as reported by ifMauType) correctly transitions to the value specified by this object, rather than continuing to operate at the value earlier determined by the auto-negotiation function."

NOTE TO IMPLEMENTORS: When
ifMauAutoNegAdminStatus transitions from enabled to disabled, the agent implementation MUST ensure that the operational type of the MAU (as reported by ifMauType) correctly transitions to the value specified by the ifMauDefaultType object, rather than continuing to operate at the value earlier determined by the auto-negotiation function."

A value that uniquely identifies the set of capabilities of the local auto-negotiation entity. The value is a sum which initially takes the value zero. Then, for each capability of this interface, 2 raised to the power noted


Page 34

below is added to the sum. For example, an interface which has the capability to support only 100Base-TX half duplex would have a value of 32768 (2**15). In contrast, an interface which supports both 100Base-TX half duplex and and 100Base-TX full duplex would have a value of 98304 ((2**15) + (2**16)).

The powers of 2 assigned to the capabilities are these:

                        0       other or unknown

8 Security Considerations

There are a number of management objects defined in this MIB that have a MAX-ACCESS clause of read-write. Setting these objects can have a serious effect on the operation of the network, including:

enabling or disabling a MAU
changing a MAU's default type
enabling, disabling or restarting autonegotiation
modifying the capabilities that a MAU advertizes during autonegotiation.

Such objects may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. The support for SET operations in a non-secure environment without proper protection can have a negative effect on network operations.

SNMPv1 by itself is such an insecure environment. Even if the network itself is secure (for example by using IPSec), even then, there is no control as to who on the secure network is allowed to access and GET/SET (read/change/create/delete) the objects in this MIB.

It is recommended that the implementers consider the security features as provided by the SNMPv3 framework. Specifically, the use of the User-based Security Model RFC 2574 [12] and the View-based Access Control Model RFC 2575 [15] is recommended.

It is then a customer/user responsibility to ensure that the SNMP entity giving access to an instance of this MIB, is properly configured to give access to those objects only to those principals (users) that have legitimate rights to access them.

Change Log

This section enumerates the changes made to RFC 2239 to produce this document.

      (1)   The MODULE-IDENTITY has been updated to reflect the changes
            in the MIB.

      (2)   OBJECT-IDENTITY definitions have been added for gigabit MAU
            types.

      (3)   The ifMauTypeList, ifMauAutoNegCapability,
            ifMauAutoNegCapAdvertised and ifMauAutoNegCapReceived
            objects have been deprecated and replaced by
            ifMauTypeListBits, ifMauAutoNegCapabilityBits,
            ifMauAutoNegCapAdvertisedBits and
            ifMauAutoNegCapReceivedBits.
