JohnsonCategory: Standards Track RedBack Networks August 1999Definitions of Managed Objects forthe Ethernet-like Interface TypesStatus of this Memo This document specifies an Internet standards track protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the "Internet Official Protocol Standards" (STD 1) for the standardization state and status of this protocol. Distribution of this memo is unlimited.Copyright Notice Copyright (C) The Internet Society (1999). All Rights Reserved.Abstract This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB) for use with network management protocols in the Internet community. This memo obsoletesRFC 2358, "Definitions of Managed Objects for the Ethernet-like Interface Types". This memo extends that specification by including management information useful for the management of 1000 Mb/s and full-duplex Ethernet interfaces. 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.Flick & Johnson Standards Track [Page 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 Ethernet-like interfaces. 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 2358 [23]. 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 [26].Flick & Johnson Standards Track [Page 2]
RFC 2665 Ethernet-Like MIB August 19992. The SNMP Management Framework The SNMP Management Framework presently consists of five major components: o An overall architecture, described inRFC 2571 [1]. o Mechanisms for describing and naming objects and events for the purpose of management. The first version of this Structure of Management Information (SMI) is called SMIv1 and described in STD 16,RFC 1155 [2], STD 16,RFC 1212 [3] andRFC 1215 [4]. The second version, called SMIv2, is described in STD 58,RFC 2578 [5], STD 58,RFC 2579 [6] and STD 58,RFC 2580 [7]. o Message protocols for transferring management information. The first version of the SNMP message protocol is called SNMPv1 and described in STD 15,RFC 1157 [8]. A second version of the SNMP message protocol, which is not an Internet standards track protocol, is called SNMPv2c and described inRFC 1901 [9] andRFC1906 [10]. The third version of the message protocol is called SNMPv3 and described inRFC 1906 [10],RFC 2572 [11] andRFC 2574 [12]. o Protocol operations for accessing management information. The first set of protocol operations and associated PDU formats is described in STD 15,RFC 1157 [8]. A second set of protocol operations and associated PDU formats is described inRFC 1905 [13]. o A set of fundamental applications described inRFC 2573 [14] and the view-based access control mechanism described inRFC 2575 [15]. 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.Flick & Johnson Standards Track [Page 3]
RFC 2665 Ethernet-Like MIB August 19993. Overview Instances of these object types represent attributes of an interface to an ethernet-like communications medium. At present, ethernet-like media are identified by the following values of the ifType object in the Interfaces MIB [25]: ethernetCsmacd(6) iso88023Csmacd(7) starLan(11) The definitions presented here are based onSection 30, "10 Mb/s, 100 Mb/s and 1000 Mb/s Management", and Annex 30A, "GDMO Specification for 802.3 managed object classes" of IEEE Std. 802.3, 1998 Edition [16], as originally interpreted by Frank Kastenholz then of Interlan in [17]. Implementors of these MIB objects should note that IEEE Std. 802.3 [16] explicitly describes (in the form of Pascal pseudocode) when, where, and how various MAC attributes are measured. The IEEE document also describes the effects of MAC actions that may be invoked by manipulating instances of the MIB objects defined here. To the extent that some of the attributes defined in [16] are represented by previously defined objects in MIB-2 [24] or in the Interfaces MIB [25], such attributes are not redundantly represented by objects defined in this memo. Among the attributes represented by objects defined in other memos are the number of octets transmitted or received on a particular interface, the number of frames transmitted or received on a particular interface, the promiscuous status of an interface, the MAC address of an interface, and multicast information associated with an interface.3.1. Relation to MIB-2 This section applies only when this MIB is used in conjunction with the "old" (RFC 1213) [24] interface group. The relationship between an ethernet-like interface and an interface in the context of MIB-2 is one-to-one. As such, the value of an ifIndex object instance can be directly used to identify corresponding instances of the objects defined herein. For agents which implement the (now deprecated) ifSpecific object, an instance of that object that is associated with an ethernet-like interface has the OBJECT IDENTIFIER value: dot3 OBJECT IDENTIFER ::= { transmission 7 }Flick & Johnson Standards Track [Page 4]
RFC 2665 Ethernet-Like MIB August 19993.2. Relation to the Interfaces MIB The Interface MIB [25] requires that any MIB which is an adjunct of the Interface MIB clarify specific areas within the Interface MIB. These areas were intentionally left vague in the Interface MIB to avoid over constraining the MIB, thereby precluding management of certain media-types. Section 3.3 of [25] enumerates several areas which a media-specific MIB must clarify. Each of these areas is addressed in a following subsection. The implementor is referred to [25] in order to understand the general intent of these areas.3.2.1. Layering Model This MIB does not provide for layering. There are no sublayers. EDITOR'S NOTE: One could foresee the development of an 802.2 and enet-transceiver MIB. They could be higher and lower sublayers, respectively. All that THIS document should do is allude to the possibilities and urge the implementor to be aware of the possibility and that they may have requirements which supersede the requirements in this document.3.2.2. Virtual Circuits This medium does not support virtual circuits and this area is not applicable to this MIB.3.2.3. ifTestTable This MIB defines two tests for media which are instrumented with this MIB; TDR and Loopback. Implementation of these tests is not required. Many common interface chips do not support one or both of these tests. These two tests are provided as a convenience, allowing a common method to invoke the test. Standard MIBs do not include objects in which to return the results of the TDR test. Any needed objects MUST be provided in the vendor specific MIB. Note that the ifTestTable is now deprecated. Work is underway to define a replacement MIB for system and interface testing. It is expected that the tests defined in this document will be usable in this replacement MIB.Flick & Johnson Standards Track [Page 5]
RFC 2665 Ethernet-Like MIB August 19993.2.4. ifRcvAddressTable This table contains all IEEE 802.3 addresses, unicast, multicast, and broadcast, for which this interface will receive packets and forward them up to a higher layer entity for local consumption. The format of the address, contained in ifRcvAddressAddress, is the same as for ifPhysAddress. In the event that the interface is part of a MAC bridge, this table does not include unicast addresses which are accepted for possible forwarding out some other port. This table is explicitly not intended to provide a bridge address filtering mechanism.3.2.5. ifPhysAddress This object contains the IEEE 802.3 address which is placed in the source-address field of any Ethernet, Starlan, or IEEE 802.3 frames that originate at this interface. Usually this will be kept in ROM on the interface hardware. Some systems may set this address via software. In a system where there are several such addresses the designer has a tougher choice. The address chosen should be the one most likely to be of use to network management (e.g. the address placed in ARP responses for systems which are primarily IP systems). If the designer truly can not chose, use of the factory- provided ROM address is suggested. If the address can not be determined, an octet string of zero length should be returned. The address is stored in binary in this object. The address is stored in "canonical" bit order, that is, the Group Bit is positioned as the low-order bit of the first octet. Thus, the first byte of a multicast address would have the bit 0x01 set.3.2.6. ifType This MIB applies to interfaces which have any of the following ifType values: ethernetCsmacd(6) iso88023Csmacd(7) starLan(11)Flick & Johnson Standards Track [Page 6]
RFC 2665 Ethernet-Like MIB August 1999 It is RECOMMENDED that all Ethernet-like interfaces use an ifType of ethernetCsmacd(6) regardless of the speed that the interface is running or the link-layer encapsulation in use. iso88023Csmacd(7) and starLan(11) are supported for backwards compatability. There are three other interface types defined in the IANAifType-MIB for Ethernet. They are fastEther(62), fastEtherFX(69), and gigabitEthernet(117). This document takes the position that an Ethernet is an Ethernet, and Ethernet interfaces SHOULD always have the same value of ifType. Information on the particular flavor of Ethernet that an interface is running is available from ifSpeed in the Interfaces MIB, and ifMauType in the 802.3 MAU MIB. An Ethernet-like interface SHOULD NOT use the fastEther(62), fastEtherFX(69), or gigabitEthernet(117) ifTypes. Interfaces with any of the supported ifType values map to the EtherLike-MIB in the same manner. There are no implementation differences.3.2.7. Specific Interface MIB Objects The following table provides specific implementation guidelines for applying the interface group objects to ethernet-like media. Object Guidelines ifIndex Each ethernet-like interface is represented by an ifEntry. The dot3StatsTable in this MIB module is indexed by dot3StatsIndex. The interface identified by a particular value of dot3StatsIndex is the same interface as identified by the same value of ifIndex. ifDescr Refer to [25]. ifType Refer tosection 3.2.6. ifMtu 1500 octets. NOTE: This is the MTU as seen by the MAC client. When a higher layer protocol, like IP, is running over Ethernet, this is the MTU that will be seen by that higher layer protocol. However, when using the IEEE 802.2 LLC protocol, higher layer protocols will see a different MTU. In particular, an LLC type 1 client protocol will seeFlick & Johnson Standards Track [Page 7]
RFC 2665 Ethernet-Like MIB August 1999 an MTU of 1497 octets, and a protocol running over SNAP will see an MTU of 1492 octets. ifSpeed The current operational speed of the interface in bits per second. For current ethernet-like interfaces, this will be equal to 1,000,000 (1 million), 10,000,000 (10 million), 100,000,000 (100 million), or 1,000,000,000 (1 billion). If the interface implements auto-negotiation, auto-negotiation is enabled for this interface, and the interface has not yet negotiated to an operational speed, this object SHOULD reflect the maximum speed supported by the interface. Note that this object MUST NOT indicate a doubled value when operating in full-duplex mode. It MUST indicate the correct line speed regardless of the current duplex mode. The duplex mode of the interface may be determined by examining either the dot3StatsDuplexStatus object in this MIBmodule, or the ifMauType object in the 802.3 MAU MIB. ifPhysAddress Refer tosection 3.2.5. ifAdminStatus Write access is not required. Support for 'testing' is not required. ifOperStatus The operational state of the interface. Support for 'testing' is not required. The value 'dormant' has no meaning for an ethernet-like interface. ifLastChange Refer to [25]. ifInOctets The number of octets in valid MAC frames received on this interface, including the MAC header and FCS. This does include the number of octets in valid MAC Control frames received on this interface.Flick & Johnson Standards Track [Page 8]
RFC 2665 Ethernet-Like MIB August 1999 ifInUcastPkts Refer to [25]. Note that this does not include MAC Control frames, since MAC Control frames are consumed by the interface layer and are not passed to any higher layer protocol. ifInDiscards Refer to [25]. ifInErrors The sum for this interface of dot3StatsAlignmentErrors, dot3StatsFCSErrors, dot3StatsFrameTooLongs, dot3StatsInternalMacReceiveErrors and dot3StatsSymbolErrors. ifInUnknownProtos Refer to [25]. ifOutOctets The number of octets transmitted in valid MAC frames on this interface, including the MAC header and FCS. This does include the number of octets in valid MAC Control frames transmitted on this interface. ifOutUcastPkts Refer to [25]. Note that this does not include MAC Control frames, since MAC Control frames are generated by the interface layer, and are not passed from any higher layer protocol. ifOutDiscards Refer to [25]. ifOutErrors The sum for this interface of: dot3StatsSQETestErrors, dot3StatsLateCollisions, dot3StatsExcessiveCollisions, dot3StatsInternalMacTransmitErrors and dot3StatsCarrierSenseErrors. ifName Locally-significant textual name for the interface (e.g. lan0). ifInMulticastPkts Refer to [25]. Note that this does not include MAC Control frames, since MAC Control frames are consumed by the interface layer and are not passed to any higher layer protocol.Flick & Johnson Standards Track [Page 9]
RFC 2665 Ethernet-Like MIB August 1999 ifInBroadcastPkts Refer to [25]. Note that this does not include MAC Control frames, since MAC Control frames are generated by the interface layer, and are not passed from any higher layer protocol. ifOutMulticastPkts Refer to [25]. Note that this does not include MAC Control frames, since MAC Control frames are consumed by the interface layer and are not passed to any higher layer protocol. ifOutBroadcastPkts Refer to [25]. Note that this does not include MAC Control frames, since MAC Control frames are generated by the interface layer, and are not passed from any higher layer protocol. ifHCInOctets 64-bit versions of counters. Required ifHCOutOctets for ethernet-like interfaces that are capable of operating at 20Mbit/sec or faster, even if the interface is currently operating at less than 20Mbit/sec. ifHCInUcastPkts 64-bit versions of packet counters. ifHCInMulticastPkts Required for ethernet-like interfaces ifHCInBroadcastPkts that are capable of operating at ifHCOutUcastPkts 640Mbit/sec or faster, even if the ifHCOutMulticastPkts interface is currently operating at ifHCOutBroadcastPkts less than 640Mbit/sec. ifLinkUpDownTrapEnable Refer to [25]. Default is 'enabled' ifHighSpeed The current operational speed of the interface in millions of bits per second. For current ethernet-like interfaces, this will be equal to 1, 10, 100, or 1,000. If the interface implements auto-negotiation, auto-negotiation is enabled for this interface, and the interface has not yet negotiated to an operational speed, this object SHOULD reflect the maximum speed supported by the interface. Note that this object MUST NOT indicate a doubled value when operating in full- duplex mode. It MUST indicate theFlick & Johnson Standards Track [Page 10]
RFC 2665 Ethernet-Like MIB August 1999 correct line speed regardless of the current duplex mode. The duplex mode of the interface may be determined by examining either the dot3StatsDuplexStatus object in this MIB module, or the ifMauType object in the 802.3 MAU MIB. ifPromiscuousMode Refer to [25]. ifConnectorPresent This will normally be 'true'. ifAlias Refer to [25]. ifCounterDiscontinuityTime Refer to [25]. Note that a discontinuity in the Interface MIB counters may also indicate a discontinuity in some or all of the counters in this MIB that are associated with that interface. ifStackHigherLayer Refer tosection 3.2.1. ifStackLowerLayer ifStackStatus ifRcvAddressAddress Refer tosection 3.2.4. ifRcvAddressStatus ifRcvAddressType3.3. Relation to the 802.3 MAU MIB Support for the mauModIfCompl2 compliance statement of the MAU-MIB [27] is REQUIRED for Ethernet-like interfaces. This MIB is needed in order to allow applications to determine the current MAU type in use by the interface, and to control autonegotiation and duplex mode for the interface. Implementing this MIB module without implementing the MAU-MIB would leave applications with no standard way to determine the media type in use, and no standard way to control the duplex mode of the interface.3.4. dot3StatsEtherChipSet This document defines an object called dot3StatsEtherChipSet, which is used to identify the MAC hardware used to communicate on an interface. Previous versions of this document contained a number of OID assignments for some existing Ethernet chipsets. MaintainingFlick & Johnson Standards Track [Page 11]
RFC 2665 Ethernet-Like MIB August 1999 that list as part of this document has proven to be problematic, so the OID assignments contained in prevous versions of this document have now been moved to a separate document [28]. The dot3StatsEtherChipSet object has now been deprecated. Implementation feedback indicates that this object is much more useful in theory than in practice. The object's utility in debugging network problems in the field appears to be limited. In those cases where it may be useful, it is not sufficient, since it identifies only the MAC chip, and not the PHY, PMD, or driver. The administrative overhead involved in maintaining a central registry of chipset OIDs cannot be justified for an object whose usefulness is questionable at best. Implementations which continue to support this object for the purpose of backwards compatability may continue to use the values defined in [28]. For chipsets not listed in [28], implementors should assign OBJECT IDENTIFIERS within that part of the registration tree delegated to individual enterprises.3.5.

However, the IF-MIB counters can be derived from the IEEE 802.3 counters as follows: ifInOctets = aOctetsReceivedOK + (18 * aFramesReceivedOK) ifOutOctets = aOctetsTransmittedOK + (18 * aFramesTransmittedOK) Also note that the packet counters in the IF-MIB do not exactly match the definition of the frame counters in IEEE 802.3. aFramesTransmittedOK counts the number of frames successfully transmitted on the interface, whereas ifOutUcastPkts, ifOutMulticastPkts and ifOutBroadcastPkts count the number of transmit requests made from a higher layer, whether or not the transmit attempt was successful. This means that packets counted by ifOutErrors or ifOutDiscards are also be counted by ifOut*castPkts, but are not be counted by aFramesTransmittedOK. This also meansFlick & Johnson Standards Track [Page 13]
RFC 2665 Ethernet-Like MIB August 1999 that, since MAC Control frames are generated by a sublayer internal to the interface layer rather than by a higher layer, they are not counted by ifOut*castPkts, but are counted by aFramesTransmittedOK. Similarly, aFramesReceivedOK counts the number of frames received successfully by the interface, whether or not they are passed to a higher layer, whereas ifInUcastPkts, ifInMulticastPkts and ifInBroadcastPkts count only the number of packets passed to a higher layer. This means that packets counted by ifInDiscards or ifInUnknownProtos are also counted by aFramesReceivedOK, but are not counted by ifIn*castPkts. This also menas that, since MAC Control frames are consumed by a sublayer internal to the interface layer and not passed to a higher layer, they are not counted by ifIn*castPkts, but are counted by aFramesReceivedOK. Another difference to keep in mind between the IF-MIB counters and IEEE 802.3 counters is that in the IEEE 802.3 document, the frame counters and octet counters are always incremented together. aOctetsTransmittedOK counts the number of octets in frames that were counted by aFramesTransmittedOK. aOctetsReceivedOK counts the number of octets in frames that were counted by aFramesReceivedOK. This is not the case with the IF-MIB counters. The IF-MIB octet counters count the number of octets sent to or received from the layer below this interface, whereas the packet counters count the number of packets sent to or received from the layer above. Therefore, received MAC Control frames, ifInDiscards, and ifInUnknownProtos are counted by ifInOctets, but not ifIn*castPkts. Transmitted MAC Control frames are counted by ifOutOctets, but not ifOut*castPkts. ifOutDiscards and ifOutErrors are counted by ifOut*castPkts, but not ifOutOctets. The following IEEE 802.3 managed objects have been removed from this MIB module as a result of implementation feedback: oMacEntity .aFramesWithExcessiveDeferral .aInRangeLengthErrors .aOutOfRangeLengthField .aMACEnableStatus .aTransmitEnableStatus .aMulticastReceiveStatus .acInitializeMAC Please see [19] for the detailed reasoning on why these objects were removed.

Providing separate admin control of the PHY was not considered useful. oMACControlEntity .aMACControlFramesTransmitted Can be determined by summing the OutFrames counters for the individual control functions .aMACControlFramesReceived Can be determined by summing the InFrames counters for the individual control functions oPAUSEEntity .aPAUSELinkDelayAllowance Not considered useful.Flick & Johnson Standards Track [Page 15]

RFC 2665 Ethernet-Like MIB August 1999 Management control of the duplex mode is accomplished through the MAU MIB. When an interface does not support autonegotiation, or when autonegotiation is not enabled, the duplex mode is controlled using ifMauDefaultType. When autonegotiation is supported and enabled, duplex mode is controlled using ifMauAutoNegAdvertisedBits. In either case, the currently operating duplex mode is reflected both in this object and in ifMauType. Note that this object provides redundant information with ifMauType. Normally, redundant objects are discouraged. However, in this instance, it allows a management application to determine the duplex status of an interface without having to know every possible value of ifMauType.

It extends that document by providing support for full-duplex Ethernet interfaces and 1000 Mb/sec Ethernet interfaces as outlined in [16].RFC 2358, in turn, is almost completely based on both the Standard Ethernet MIB,RFC 1643 [21], and the Proposed Standard Ethernet MIB using the SNMPv2 SMI,RFC 1650 [22], both of which were edited by Frank Kastenholz of FTP Software and produced by the Interfaces MIB Working Group.RFC 2358 extends those documents by providing support for 100 Mb/sec ethernet interfaces.RFC 1643 andRFC 1650, in turn, are based on the Draft Standard Ethernet MIB,RFC 1398 [20], also edited by Frank Kastenholz and produced by the Ethernet MIB Working Group.RFC 1398, in turn, is based on the Proposed Standard Ethernet MIB,RFC 1284 [18], which was edited by John Cook of Chipcom and produced by the Transmission MIB Working Group. The Ethernet MIB Working Group gathered implementation experience of the variables specified inRFC 1284, documented that experience inRFC 1369 [19], and used that information to develop this revised MIB.RFC 1284, in turn, is based on a document written by Frank Kastenholz, then of Interlan, entitled IEEE 802.3 Layer Management Draft M compatible MIB for TCP/IP Networks [17]. This document was modestly reworked, initially by the SNMP Working Group, and then by the Transmission Working Group, to reflect the current conventions for defining objects for MIB interfaces. James Davin, of the MIT Laboratory for Computer Science, and Keith McCloghrie of Hughes LAN Systems, contributed to later drafts of this memo. Marshall Rose of Performance Systems International, Inc. converted the document intoFlick & Johnson Standards Track [Page 40]

Security Considerations There are two management objects defined in this MIB that have a MAX-ACCESS clause of read-write. 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. There are a number of managed objects in this MIB that may be considered to contain sensitive information. In particular, the dot3StatsEtherChipSet object may be considered sensitive in many environments, since it would allow an intruder to obtain information about which vendor's equipment is in use on the network. Note that this object has been deprecated. However, some implementors may still choose to implement it for backwards compatability. Therefore, it may be important in some environments to control read access to these objects and possibly to even encrypt the values of these objects when sending them over the network via SNMP. Not all versions of SNMP provide features for such a secure environment. 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 (read) the objects in this MIB. It is recommended that the implementors consider the security features as provided by the SNMPv3 framework. Specifically, the use of the User-based Security ModelRFC 2574 [12] and the View-based Access Control ModelRFC 2575 [15] is recommended.Flick & Johnson Standards Track [Page 43]
RFC 2665 Ethernet-Like MIB August 1999 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.9.
