Network Working Group P. Nesser, IIRequest for Comments: 3796 Nesser & Nesser ConsultingCategory: Informational A. Bergstrom, Ed. Ostfold University College June 2004Survey of IPv4 Addresses in Currently Deployed IETFOperations & Management Area Standards Track and Experimental DocumentsStatus of this Memo This memo provides information for the Internet community. It does not specify an Internet standard of any kind. Distribution of this memo is unlimited.Copyright Notice Copyright (C) The Internet Society (2004).Abstract This document seeks to record all usage of IPv4 addresses in currently deployed IETF Operations & Management Area accepted standards. In order to successfully transition from an all IPv4 Internet to an all IPv6 Internet, many interim steps will be taken. One of these steps is the evolution of current protocols that have IPv4 dependencies. It is hoped that these protocols (and their implementations) will be redesigned to be network address independent, but failing that will at least dually support IPv4 and IPv6. To this end, all Standards (Full, Draft, and Proposed), as well as Experimental RFCs, will be surveyed and any dependencies will be documented.Nesser II & Bergstrom Informational [Page 1]

In an effort to have the information in a manageable form, it has been broken into 7 documents conforming to the current IETF areas (Application, Internet, Operations & Management, Routing, Security, Sub-IP and Transport). For a full introduction, please see the introduction [1].2. Document Organization The document is organized as described below: Sections3,4,5, and6 each describe the raw analysis of Full, Draft, and Proposed Standards, and Experimental RFCs. Each RFC is discussed in its turn starting withRFC 1 and ending with (around)RFC 3100. The comments for each RFC are "raw" in nature. That is, each RFC is discussed in a vacuum and problems or issues discussed do not "look ahead" to see if the problems have already been fixed.Section 7 is an analysis of the data presented in Sections3,4,5, and 6. It is here that all of the results are considered as a whole and the problems that have been resolved in later RFCs are correlated.Nesser II & Bergstrom Informational [Page 2]
RFC 3796 IPv4 in the IETF Operations & Management Area June 20043. Full Standards Full Internet Standards (most commonly simply referred to as "Standards") are fully mature protocol specification that are widely implemented and used throughout the Internet.3.1.RFC 1155 Structure of Management InformationSection 3.2.3.2. IpAddress defines the following: This application-wide type represents a 32-bit internet address. It is represented as an OCTET STRING of length 4, in network byte-order. There are several instances of the use of this definition in the rest of the document.3.2.RFC 1212 Concise MIB definitions Insection 4.1.6 IpAddress is defined as: (6) IpAddress-valued: 4 sub-identifiers, in the familiar a.b.c.d notation.3.3.RFC 1213 Management Information Base There are far too many instances of IPv4 addresses is this document to enumerate here. The particular object groups that are affected are the IP group, the ICMP group, the TCP group, the UDP group, and the EGP group.3.4.RFC 2578 Structure of Management Information Version 2 (SMIv2)Section 7.1.5 defines the IpAddress data type: The IpAddress type represents a 32-bit internet address. It is represented as an OCTET STRING of length 4, in network byte-order. Note that the IpAddress type is a tagged type for historical reasons. Network addresses should be represented using an invocation of the TEXTUAL-CONVENTION macro. Note the deprecated status of this type; seeRFC 3291 for details on the replacement TEXTUAL-CONVENTION definitions.3.5.RFC 2579 Textual Conventions for SMIv2 There are no IPv4 dependencies in this specification.Nesser II & Bergstrom Informational [Page 3]
RFC 3796 IPv4 in the IETF Operations & Management Area June 20043.6.RFC 2580 Conformance Statements for SMIv2 There are no IPv4 dependencies in this specification.3.7.RFC 2819 Remote Network Monitoring Management Information Base There are no IPv4 dependencies in this specification.3.8.RFC 3411 An Architecture for Describing SNMP Management Frameworks There are no IPv4 dependencies in this specification.3.9.RFC 3412 Message Processing and Dispatching for the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) There are no IPv4 dependencies in this specification.3.10.RFC 3413 SNMP Applications There are no IPv4 dependencies in this specification.3.11.RFC 3414 User-based Security Model (USM) for version 3 of the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMPv3) There are no IPv4 dependencies in this specification.3.12.RFC 3415 View-based Access Control Model (VACM) for the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) There are no IPv4 dependencies in this specification.3.13.RFC 3416 Protocol Operations for Version 2 of the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)Section 4.2.2.1., Example of Table Traversal, andSection 4.2.3.1., Another Example of Table Traversal, both use objects from MIB2 whose data contains IPv4 addresses. Other than their use in these example sections, there are no IPv4 dependencies in this specification.Nesser II & Bergstrom Informational [Page 4]
RFC 3796 IPv4 in the IETF Operations & Management Area June 20043.14.RFC 3417 Transport Mappings for Version 2 of the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)Section 2 Definitions contains the following definition: SnmpUDPAddress ::= TEXTUAL-CONVENTION DISPLAY-HINT "1d.1d.1d.1d/2d" STATUS current DESCRIPTION "Represents a UDP address: octets contents encoding 1-4 IP-address network-byte order 5-6 UDP-port network-byte order " SYNTAX OCTET STRING (SIZE (6))Section 8.1, Usage Example, also contains examples which uses IPv4 address, but it has no significance in the operation of the specification.3.15.RFC 3418 Management Information Base for Version 2 of the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) There are no IPv4 dependencies in this specification.4. Draft Standards Draft Standards represent the penultimate standard level in the IETF. A protocol can only achieve draft standard when there are multiple, independent, interoperable implementations. Draft Standards are usually quite mature and widely used.4.1.RFC 1493 Definitions of Managed Objects for Bridges There are no IPv4 dependencies in this specification.4.2.RFC 1559 DECnet Phase IV MIB Extensions There are no IPv4 dependencies in this specification.Nesser II & Bergstrom Informational [Page 5]
RFC 3796 IPv4 in the IETF Operations & Management Area June 20044.3.RFC 1657 Definitions of Managed Objects for the Fourth Version of the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP-4) using SMIv2 The MIB defined in this RFC deals with objects in a BGP4 based routing system and therefore contain many objects that are limited by the IpAddress 32-bit value defined in MIB2. Clearly the values of this MIB are limited to IPv4 addresses. No update is needed, although a new MIB should be defined for BGP4+ to allow management of IPv6 addresses and routes.4.4.RFC 1658 Definitions of Managed Objects for Character Stream Devices using SMIv2 There are no IPv4 dependencies in this specification.4.5.RFC 1659 Definitions of Managed Objects for RS-232-like Hardware Devices using SMIv2 There are no IPv4 dependencies in this specification.4.6.RFC 1660 Definitions of Managed Objects for Parallel-printer-like Hardware Devices using SMIv2 There are no IPv4 dependencies in this specification.4.7.RFC 1694 Definitions of Managed Objects for SMDS Interfaces using SMIv2 This MIB module definition defines the following subtree: ipOverSMDS OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { smdsApplications 1 } -- Although the objects in this group are read-only, at the -- agent's discretion they may be made read-write so that the -- management station, when appropriately authorized, may -- change the addressing information related to the -- configuration of a logical IP subnetwork implemented on -- top of SMDS. -- This table is necessary to supportRFC1209 (IP-over-SMDS) -- and gives information on the Group Addresses and ARP -- Addresses used in the Logical IP subnetwork. -- One SMDS address may be associated with multiple IP -- addresses. One SNI may be associated with multiple LISs. ipOverSMDSTable OBJECT-TYPE SYNTAX SEQUENCE OF IpOverSMDSEntry MAX-ACCESS not-accessibleNesser II & Bergstrom Informational [Page 6]

A new MIB for RIPng is required.4.9.RFC 1748 IEEE 802.5 MIB using SMIv2 There are no IPv4 dependencies in this specification.4.10.RFC 1850 OSPF Version 2 Management Information Base This MIB defines managed objects for OSPFv2 which is a protocol used to exchange IPv4 routing information. Since OSPFv2 is limited to IPv4 addresses, a new MIB is required to support a new version of OSPF that is IPv6 aware.Nesser II & Bergstrom Informational [Page 8]
RFC 3796 IPv4 in the IETF Operations & Management Area June 20044.11.RFC 2115 Management Information Base for Frame Relay DTEs Using SMIv2 This specification has several examples of how IPv4 addresses might be mapped to Frame Relay DLCIs. Other than those examples there are no IPv4 dependencies in this specification.4.12.RFC 2790 Host Resources MIB There are no IPv4 dependencies in this specification.4.13.RFC 2863 The Interfaces Group MIB There are no IPv4 dependencies in this specification. There is some discussion in one object definition about an interface performing a self test, but the object itself is IP version independent.4.14.RFC 3592 Definitions of Managed Objects for the Synchronous Optical Network/Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SONET/SDH) There are no IPv4 dependencies in this specification.4.15.RFC 3593 Textual Conventions for MIB Modules Using Performance History Based on 15 Minute Intervals There are no IPv4 dependencies in this specification.5. Proposed Standards Proposed Standards are introductory level documents. There are no requirements for even a single implementation. In many cases, Proposed are never implemented or advanced in the IETF standards process. They therefore are often just proposed ideas that are presented to the Internet community. Sometimes flaws are exposed or they are one of many competing solutions to problems. In these later cases, no discussion is presented as it would not serve the purpose of this discussion.5.1.RFC 1239 Reassignment of experimental MIBs to standard MIBs There are no IPv4 dependencies in this specification.5.2.RFC 1269 Definitions of Managed Objects for the Border Gateway Protocol: Version 3 The use of BGP3 has been deprecated and is not discussed.Nesser II & Bergstrom Informational [Page 9]

However, since they use a SYNTAX of OCTET STRING, they should work fine for IPv6 addresses. A new legitimate value of trapDestProtocol (i.e., SYNTAX addition of ipv6(3) should make this specification functional for IPv6.5.32.RFC 2024 Definitions of Managed Objects for Data Link Switching using SMIv2 The following textual conventions are defined: TAddress ::= TEXTUAL-CONVENTION STATUS current DESCRIPTION "Denotes a transport service address.

RFC 3796 IPv4 in the IETF Operations & Management Area June 2004 Additionally there are many object definitions that use a SYNTAX of TAddress within the document. Interestingly the SYNTAX for TAddress is an OCTET string of up to 256 characters. It could easily accommodate a similar hybrid format for IPv6 addresses.

RFC 3796 IPv4 in the IETF Operations & Management Area June 20045.70.RFC 2622 Routing Policy Specification Language (RPSL) The only objects in the version of RPSL that deal with IP addresses are defined as: <ipv4-address> An IPv4 address is represented as a sequence of four integers in the range from 0 to 255 separated by the character dot ".". For example, 128.9.128.5 represents a valid IPv4 address. In the rest of this document, we may refer to IPv4 addresses as IP addresses. <address-prefix> An address prefix is represented as an IPv4 address followed by the character slash "/" followed by an integer in the range from 0 to 32. The following are valid address prefixes: 128.9.128.5/32, 128.9.0.0/16, 0.0.0.0/0; and the following address prefixes are invalid: 0/0, 128.9/16 since 0 or 128.9 are not strings containing four integers. There seems to be an awareness of IPv6 because of the terminology but it is not specifically defined. Therefore additional objects for IPv6 addresses and prefixes need to be defined.5.71.RFC 2662 Definitions of Managed Objects for the ADSL Lines There are no IPv4 dependencies in this specification.5.72.RFC 2667 IP Tunnel MIB The Abstract of this document says: This memo defines a Management Information Base (MIB) for use with network management protocols in the Internet community. In particular, it describes managed objects used for managing tunnels of any type over IPv4 networks. Extension MIBs may be designed for managing protocol-specific objects. Likewise, extension MIBs may be designed for managing security-specific objects. This MIB does not support tunnels over non-IPv4 networks (including IPv6 networks). Management of such tunnels may be supported by other MIBs. A similar MIB for tunneling over IPv6 should be defined.Nesser II & Bergstrom Informational [Page 28]

RFC 3796 IPv4 in the IETF Operations & Management Area June 20047. Summary of Results In the initial survey of RFCs, 36 positives were identified out of a total of 153, broken down as follows: Standards: 6 out of 15 or 40.00% Draft Standards: 4 out of 15 or 26.67% Proposed Standards: 26 out of 112 or 23.21% Experimental RFCs: 0 out of 11 or 0.00% Of those identified, many require no action because they document outdated and unused protocols, while others are document protocols that are actively being updated by the appropriate working groups. Additionally there are many instances of standards that should be updated but do not cause any operational impact if they are not updated. The remaining instances are documented below.7.1. Standards7.1.1. STD 16, Structure of Management Information (RFCs 1155 and 1212)RFC 1155 andRFC 1212 (along with the informational documentRFC1215) define SMIv1. These documents have been superseded by RFCs 2578, 2579, and 2580 which define SMIv2. Since SMIv1 is no longer being used as the basis for new IETF MIB modules, the limitations identified in this Internet Standard do not require any action.7.1.2. STD 17 Simple Network Management Protocol (RFC 1213) The limitations identified have been addressed, becauseRFC 1213 has been split into multiple modules which are all IPv6 capable.7.2. Draft Standards7.2.1. BGP4 MIB (RFC 1657) This problem is currently being addressed by the Inter Domain Routing (IDR) WG [2].7.2.2. SMDS MIB (RFC 1694) See Internet Area standards. Once a specification for IPv6 over SMDS is created a new MIB must be defined.7.2.3. RIPv2 MIB (RFC 1724) There is no updated MIB module to cover the problems outlined. A new MIB module should be defined.Nesser II & Bergstrom Informational [Page 36]
RFC 3796 IPv4 in the IETF Operations & Management Area June 20047.2.4. OSPFv2 MIB (RFC 1850) This problem is currently being addressed by the OSPF WG [3].7.2.5. Transport MIB (RFC 1906)RFC 1906 has been obsoleted byRFC 3417, Transport Mappings for SNMP, and the limitations of this specification have been addressed by that RFC, which defines TCs that can be used to specify transport domains in an IP version-independent way.RFC 3419 recommends that those TCs be used in place of SnmpUDPAddress when IPv6 support is required and for all new applications that are not SNMP-specific.7.3. Proposed Standards7.3.1. MIB for Multiprotocol Interconnect over X.25 (RFC 1461) This problem has not been addressed. If a user requirement for IPv6 over X.25 develops (which is thought to be unlikely) then this MIB module will need to be updated in order to accommodate it.7.3.2. PPP IPCP MIB (RFC 1473) There is no updated MIB to cover the problems outlined. A new MIB should be defined.7.3.3. Appletalk MIB (RFC 1742) This problem has not been addressed. If a user requirement for IPv6 over Appletalk develops (which is thought to be unlikely) then this MIB module will need to be updated (or a new MIB module will need to be created) in order to accommodate it.7.3.4. The Definitions of Managed Objects for IP Mobility Support using SMIv2 (RFC 2006) The problems are being resolved by the MIP6 WG [4].7.3.5. SMIv2 IP MIB (RFC 2011) This issue is being resolved by the IPv6 WG [5].7.3.6. SNMPv2 TCP MIB (RFC 2012) This issue is being resolved by the IPv6 WG [6].Nesser II & Bergstrom Informational [Page 37]
RFC 3796 IPv4 in the IETF Operations & Management Area June 20047.3.7. SNMPv2 UDP MIB (RFC 2013) This issue is being resolved by the IPv6 WG [7].7.3.8. RMON-II MIB (RFC 2021) This issue has been brought to the attention of the RMONMIB WG. Currently, there is a work in progress [8] to updateRFC 2021, but it does not address the problems that have been identified; it is expected that there will be a resolution in a future version of that document.7.3.9. DataLink Switching using SMIv2 MIB (RFC 2024) The problems have not been addressed and an updated MIB should be defined.7.3.10. IP Forwarding Table MIB (RFC 2096) This issue is being worked on by the IPv6 WG [9].7.3.11. Classical IP & ARP over ATM MIB (RFC 2320) The current version of Classical IP and ARP over ATM (RFC 2225) does not support IPv6. If and when that protocol specification is updated to add IPv6 support, then new MIB objects to represent IPv6 addresses will need to be added to this MIB module.7.3.12. Multicast over UNI 3.0/3.1 ATM MIB (RFC 2417) The current version of Multicast over UNI 3.0/3.1 ATM (RFC 2022) does not support IPv6. If and when that protocol specification is updated to add IPv6 support, then new MIB objects to represent IPv6 addresses will need to be added to this MIB module.7.3.13. ATM MIB (RFC 2515) The AToM MIB WG is currently collecting implementation reports forRFC 2515 and is considering whether to advance, revise, or retire this specification. The problems identified have been brought to the attention of the WG.7.3.14. TN3270 MIB (RFC 2562) The problems identified are not being addressed and a new MIB module may need to be defined.Nesser II & Bergstrom Informational [Page 38]
RFC 3796 IPv4 in the IETF Operations & Management Area June 20047.3.15. Application MIB (RFC 2564) The problems identified are not being addressed and a new MIB module may need to be defined. One possible solution might be to use theRFC 3419 TCs.7.3.16. Definitions of Managed Objects for APPN/HPR in IP Networks (RFC 2584) The problems identified are not addressed and a new MIB may be defined.7.3.17. RADIUS MIB (RFC 2618) The problems have not been addressed and a new MIB should be defined.7.3.18. RADIUS Authentication Server MIB (RFC 2619) The problems have not been addressed and a new MIB should be defined.7.3.19. RPSL (RFC 2622) Additional objects must be defined for IPv6 addresses and prefixes. [10] defines extensions to solve this issue, and it is being considered for publication.7.3.20. IPv4 Tunnel MIB (RFC 2667) The issue is being resolved.7.3.21. DOCSIS MIB (RFC 2669) This problem is currently being addressed by the IPCDN WG.7.3.22. RF MIB For DOCSIS (RFC 2670) This problem is currently being addressed by the IPCDN WG [11].7.3.23. VRRP MIB (RFC 2787) The problems have not been addressed and a new MIB may need to be defined.7.3.24. MIB For Traceroute, Pings and Lookups (RFC 2925) The problems have not been addressed and a new MIB may need to be defined.Nesser II & Bergstrom Informational [Page 39]
RFC 3796 IPv4 in the IETF Operations & Management Area June 20047.3.25. IPv4 Multicast Routing MIB (RFC 2932) The problems have not been addressed a new MIB must be defined.7.3.26. IGMP MIB (RFC 2933) This problem is currently being addressed by the MAGMA WG [12].7.4. Experimental RFCs7.4.1. Protocol Independent Multicast MIB for IPv4 (RFC 2934) The problems have not been addressed and a new MIB may need to be defined.8.
