RFC 6643 Translation of SMIv2 to YANG July 20121. Introduction This document describes a translation of SMIv2 [RFC2578], [RFC2579], [RFC2580] MIB modules into YANG [RFC6020] modules, enabling read-only (config false, as defined inSection 7.19.1 of RFC 6020) access to SMIv2 objects defined in SMIv2 MIB modules via NETCONF [RFC6241]. For a discussion why SMIv2 read-write or read-create objects are translated to read-only (config false) YANG objects, seeSection 11. YANG modules generated from SMIv2 modules should not be modified. Any necessary changes should be made by modifying the original SMIv2 modules (with proper updates of the SMIv2 LAST-UPDATED and REVISION clauses) and then running the translation defined in this memo again. Note that this does not affect the usage of YANG augments and or YANG deviations: YANG modules generated from SMIv2 modules can be augmented like any other YANG module, and YANG deviations can be used to document how an implementation deviates from the generated YANG module. SMIv1 modules can be converted to YANG by first following the rules in [RFC3584] to convert the SMIv1 module to SMIv2 and then following the rules in this document to convert the obtained SMIv2 module to YANG. The SMIv2-to-YANG mapping is illustrated by examples showing the translation of parts of the IF-MIB [RFC2863], the DIFFSERV-MIB [RFC3289], and the RMON2-MIB [RFC4502] SMIv2 modules. The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described inBCP14 [RFC2119].2. Mapping of Well-Known Types The SMIv2 base types and some well-known derived textual conventions are mapped to YANG types according toAppendix A. The mapping of the OCTET STRING depends on the context. If an OCTET STRING type has an associated DISPLAY-HINT, then the corresponding YANG base type is the string type. An implementation MUST format an OCTET STRING value according to the DISPLAY-HINT, as described inRFC 2579. If an OCTECT STRING type does not have an associated DISPLAY-HINT, the binary type is used. Similarly, the mapping of the INTEGER type depends on its usage as an enumeration or a 32-bit integral type. Implementations should provide implementation-specific options to handle situations where DISPLAY- HINTs are added during a revision of a module and backwards compatibility must be preserved, i.e., an added DISPLAY-HINT needs to be ignored.Schoenwaelder Standards Track [Page 4]
RFC 6643 Translation of SMIv2 to YANG July 2012 The mappings shown inAppendix A may require to import the ietf-yang- types, ietf-inet-types, or ietf-yang-smiv2 YANG modules since some SMIv2 types and textual conventions map to YANG types defined in the ietf-yang-types and ietf-inet-types YANG modules defined in [RFC6021] and the ietf-yang-smiv2 YANG module defined in this document. Implementations MUST add any additional imports required by the type mapping.3. Translation of SMIv2 Modules and SMIv2 IMPORT Clauses SMIv2 modules are mapped to corresponding YANG modules. The generated YANG module name MUST be the same as the SMIv2 module name. The YANG namespace MUST be constructed out of the IANA-registered prefix urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:smiv2: (seeSection 12) followed by the SMIv2 module name. Since SMIv2 module names can be assumed to be unique (seeSection 3 in [RFC2578]), the resulting YANG namespace is unique. The YANG prefix MAY be derived from the SMIv2 module name using the module prefix generation algorithm described inAppendix B. The YANG prefix is supposed to be short, and it must be unique within the set of all prefixes used by a YANG module. The algorithm described inAppendix B generates such prefixes. SMIv2 IMPORT clauses are translated to YANG import statements. One major difference between the SMIv2 import mechanism and the YANG import mechanism is that SMIv2 IMPORT clauses import specific symbols from an SMIv2 module, while the YANG import statement imports all symbols of the referenced YANG module. In order to produce correct and complete YANG import statements, the following rules MUST be used: o Process each item in each SMIv2 IMPORT clause as follows: 1. If an import statement for this SMIv2 module has already been generated, then ignore this item. 2. Otherwise, if the SMIv2 module name is SNMPv2-SMI or SNMPv2- CONF, then ignore this item. Note that these two modules can be completely ignored since all definitions in these modules are translated by translation rules. 3. Otherwise, if this item is a textual convention matching one of the textual conventions in the SMIv2 types column ofAppendix A (e.g., MacAddress, PhysAddress, or TimeStamp) then ignore this item.Schoenwaelder Standards Track [Page 5]
RFC 6643 Translation of SMIv2 to YANG July 2012 4. Otherwise, if the item is used in a SYNTAX clause of an OBJECT-TYPE whose MAX-ACCESS is not accessible-for-notify, then generate an import statement as described below. 5. Otherwise, if the item is used in an OBJECTS clause of a NOTIFICATION-TYPE, then generate an import statement as described below. 6. Otherwise, if the item is used in an INDEX or AUGMENTS clause, then generate an import statement as described below. 7. Otherwise, ignore this item. Some examples of this case are OBJECT IDENTIFIER assignments and objects that are only referenced in MODULE-COMPLIANCE, OBJECT-GROUP, or NOTIFICATION-GROUP clauses. o Generate any additional import statements as required by the type translations according to the type mapping tableAppendix A. This requires the translator to consider all the types used in the SMIv2 module in order to produce the imports. o Generate an import statement for the YANG module ietf-yang-smiv2 with the prefix smiv2. The generated import statements use the untranslated SMIv2 module names or the names of well-known YANG modules as their argument. The import statement must contain a prefix statement. The prefixes MAY be generated by applying the module prefix generation algorithm described inAppendix B.3.1. Example: IMPORTS of IF-MIB The translation of the IF-MIB [RFC2863] leads to the YANG module and namespace/prefix statement and the import statements shown below. The prefix is the translation of the SMIv2 module name IF-MIB to lowercase (consisting of two tokens and thus no further abbreviation). module IF-MIB { namespace "urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:smiv2:IF-MIB"; prefix "if-mib"; import IANAifType-MIB { prefix "ianaiftype-mib"; } import SNMPv2-TC { prefix "snmpv2-tc"; } import ietf-yang-types { prefix "yang"; } import ietf-yang-smiv2 { prefix "smiv2"; } }Schoenwaelder Standards Track [Page 6]
RFC 6643 Translation of SMIv2 to YANG July 20124. Translation of the MODULE-IDENTITY Macro SMIv2 requires an invocation of the MODULE-IDENTITY macro to provide contact and revision history for a MIB module. The clauses of the SMIv2 MODULE-IDENTITY macro MUST be translated into YANG statements as detailed below.4.1. MODULE-IDENTITY Translation Rules o The SMIv2 ORGANIZATION clause is mapped to the YANG organization statement. o The SMIv2 CONTACT-INFO clause is mapped to the YANG contact statement. o The SMIv2 DESCRIPTION clause is mapped to the YANG description statement. o Each SMIv2 REVISION clause is mapped to a YANG revision statement. The revision is identified by the date argument of the SMIv2 REVISION clause. DESCRIPTION sub-clauses of REVISION clauses are mapped to corresponding description statement nested in revision clauses. o The SMIv2 LAST-UPDATED clause is ignored if the associated date matches a REVISION clause. Otherwise, an additional revision statement is generated. o A top-level YANG container is generated. The container's name is the SMIv2 module name, and the container MUST be config false. The generation of the top-level container MAY be skipped if the SMIv2 module does not define any objects that go into the top- level container (e.g., an SMIv2 module only defining textual conventions). o The object identifier value of the invocation of the SMIv2 MODULE- IDENTITY is translated into an smiv2:oid statement contained in an smiv2:alias statement representing the MODULE-IDENTITY macro invocation. Refer to the YANG extension defined inSection 10. While all proper SMIv2 modules must have exactly one MODULE-IDENTITY macro invocation, there are a few notable exceptions. The modules defining the SMIv2 language (i.e., the SNMPv2-SMI, SNMPv2-TC, and SNMPv2-CONF modules) do not invoke the MODULE-IDENTITY macro. Furthermore, SMIv2 modules generated from SMIv1 modules may miss an invocation of the MODULE-IDENTITY macro as well. In such cases, it is preferable to not generate organization, contact, description, or revision statements.Schoenwaelder Standards Track [Page 7]
RFC 6643 Translation of SMIv2 to YANG July 20124.2. Example: MODULE-IDENTITY of IF-MIB The translation of the MODULE-IDENTITY of the IF-MIB [RFC2863] leads to the following YANG statements: organization "IETF Interfaces MIB Working Group"; contact "Keith McCloghrie Cisco Systems, Inc. 170 West Tasman Drive San Jose, CA 95134-1706 US 408-526-5260 kzm@cisco.com"; description "The MIB module to describe generic objects for network interface sub-layers. This MIB is an updated version of MIB-II's ifTable, and incorporates the extensions defined inRFC 1229."; revision "2000-06-14" { description "Clarifications agreed upon by the Interfaces MIB WG, and published asRFC 2863."; } revision "1996-02-28" { description "Revisions made by the Interfaces MIB WG, and published inRFC 2233."; } revision "1993-11-08" { description "Initial revision, published as part ofRFC 1573."; } container IF-MIB { config false; }Schoenwaelder Standards Track [Page 8]
RFC 6643 Translation of SMIv2 to YANG July 20125. Translation of the TEXTUAL-CONVENTION Macro The SMIv2 uses invocations of the TEXTUAL-CONVENTION macro to define new types derived from the SMIv2 base types. Invocations of the TEXTUAL-CONVENTION macro MUST be translated into YANG typedef statements as detailed below.5.1. TEXTUAL-CONVENTION Translation Rules The name of the TEXTUAL-CONVENTION macro invocation is used as the name of the generated typedef statement. The clauses of the SMIv2 TEXTUAL-CONVENTION macro are mapped to YANG statements embedded in the typedef statement as follows: o The SMIv2 DISPLAY-HINT clause is used to determine the type mapping of types derived form the OCTET STRING type as explained inSection 2. Furthermore, the DISPLAY-HINT value MAY be used to generate a regular expression for the YANG pattern statement within the type statement. o The SMIv2 DISPLAY-HINT is translated into an smiv2:display-hint statement. Refer to the YANG extension defined inSection 10. o The SMIv2 STATUS clause is mapped to the YANG status statement. The generation of the YANG status statement is skipped if the value of the STATUS clause is current. o The SMIv2 DESCRIPTION clause is mapped to the YANG description statement. o The SMIv2 REFERENCE clause is mapped to the YANG reference statement. o The SMIv2 SYNTAX clause is mapped to the YANG type statement. SMIv2 range restrictions are mapped to YANG range statements, while SMIv2 length restrictions are mapped to YANG length statements. SMIv2 INTEGER enumerations are mapped to YANG enum/ value statements. SMIv2 BITS are mapped to YANG bit/position statements. For OCTET STRING types that are mapped to a YANG string base type (seeSection 2), the length specified in the YANG length statement must be consistent with the stringified representation of values. If an implementation is unable to derive a proper length restrictions, then the YANG length statement MUST be omitted.Schoenwaelder Standards Track [Page 9]
RFC 6643 Translation of SMIv2 to YANG July 2012 This translation assumes that labels of named numbers and named bits do not change when an SMIv2 module is revised. This is consistent with the clarification of the SMIv2 module revision rules inSection4.9 of [RFC4181].5.2. Example: OwnerString and InterfaceIndex of IF-MIB The translations of the OwnerString and InterfaceIndex textual conventions of the IF-MIB [RFC2863] are shown below. typedef OwnerString { type string { length "0..255"; pattern '\p{IsBasicLatin}{0,255}'; } status deprecated; description "This data type is used to model an administratively assigned name of the owner of a resource. This information is taken from the NVT ASCII character set. It is suggested that this name contain one or more of the following: ASCII form of the manager station's transport address, management station name (e.g., domain name), network management personnel's name, location, or phone number. In some cases the agent itself will be the owner of an entry. In these cases, this string shall be set to a string starting with 'agent'."; smiv2:display-hint "255a"; } typedef InterfaceIndex { type int32 { range "1..2147483647"; } description "A unique value, greater than zero, for each interface or interface sub-layer in the managed system. It is recommended that values are assigned contiguously starting from 1. The value for each interface sub-layer must remain constant at least from one re-initialization of the entity's network management system to the next re-initialization."; smiv2:display-hint "d"; }Schoenwaelder Standards Track [Page 10]
RFC 6643 Translation of SMIv2 to YANG July 20125.3. Example: IfDirection of the DIFFSERV-MIB The translation of the IfDirection textual convention of the DIFFSERV-MIB [RFC3289] is shown below. typedef IfDirection { type enumeration { enum inbound { value 1; } enum outbound { value 2; } } description "IfDirection specifies a direction of data travel on an interface. 'inbound' traffic is operated on during reception from the interface, while 'outbound' traffic is operated on prior to transmission on the interface."; }6. Translation of OBJECT IDENTIFIER Assignments The SMIv2 uses OBJECT IDENTIFIER assignments to introduce names for intermediate nodes in the OBJECT IDENTIFIER tree. OBJECT IDENTIFIER assignments are translated into smiv2:alias statements. Refer to the YANG extension defined inSection 10.7. Translation of the OBJECT-TYPE Macro The SMIv2 uses the OBJECT-TYPE macro to define objects and the structure of conceptual tables. Objects exist either as scalars (exactly one instance within an SNMP context) or columnar objects within conceptual tables (zero or multiple instances within an SNMP context). A number of auxiliary objects define the index (key) of a conceptual table. Furthermore, conceptual tables can be augmented by other conceptual tables. All these differences must be taken into account when translating SMIv2 OBJECT-TYPE macro invocations to YANG. Invocations of the OBJECT-TYPE macro MUST be translated into YANG statements as detailed below.7.1. Scalar and Columnar Object Translation Rules SMIv2 OBJECT-TYPE macro invocations defining scalars or columnar objects with a MAX-ACCESS of "not-accessible", "read-only", "read-write", and "read-create" are translated to YANG leaf statements. Additionally, columnar objects with a MAX-ACCESS of "accessible-for-notify" are translated to YANG leaf statements if that columnar object is part of the INDEX clause of the table containing that columnar object. The name of the leaf is the name associated with the SMIv2 OBJECT-TYPE macro invocation. SMIv2 OBJECT-TYPE macro invocations with a MAX-ACCESS ofSchoenwaelder Standards Track [Page 11]
RFC 6643 Translation of SMIv2 to YANG July 2012 "accessible-for-notify" are not translated to YANG data tree leafs but instead are translated into YANG notification leafs. Leaf statements for scalar objects are created in a container representing the scalar's parent node in the OID tree. This container is named after the scalar's parent node in the OID tree and placed in the top-level container representing the SMIv2 module; seeSection 4.1. In the rare case that the scalar's parent node has multiple names, the automatic translation MUST fail with an error, and the name clash needs to be investigated and fixed manually. In case a previous revision of the SMIv2 module did not have an ambiguity, then the name used by the previous revision MUST be used. The leaf statements representing columnar objects are created in the list representing a conceptual row; seeSection 7.3. o The SMIv2 SYNTAX clause is mapped to the YANG type statement. SMIv2 range restrictions are mapped to YANG range statements, while SMIv2 length restrictions are mapped to YANG length statements. SMIv2 INTEGER enumerations are mapped to YANG enum/ value statements. SMIv2 BITS are mapped to YANG bit/position statements. For OCTET STRING types that are mapped to a YANG string base type (seeSection 2), the length specified in the YANG length statement must be consistent with the stringified representation of values. If an implementation is unable to derive proper length restrictions, then the YANG length statement MUST be omitted. o The SMIv2 UNITS clause is mapped to the YANG units statement. o The SMIv2 MAX-ACCESS is translated into an smiv2:max-access statement. Refer to the YANG extension defined inSection 10. o The SMIv2 STATUS clause is mapped to the YANG status statement. The generation of the YANG status statement is skipped if the value of the STATUS clause is current. o The SMIv2 DESCRIPTION clause is mapped to the YANG description statement. o The SMIv2 REFERENCE clause is mapped to the YANG reference statement. o The SMIv2 DEFVAL clause is mapped to an smiv2:defval statement. Refer to the YANG extension defined inSection 10. o The value of the SMIv2 OBJECT-TYPE macro invocation is translated into an smiv2:oid statement. Refer to the YANG extension defined inSection 10.Schoenwaelder Standards Track [Page 12]
RFC 6643 Translation of SMIv2 to YANG July 2012 This translation assumes that labels of named numbers and named bits do not change when an SMIv2 module is revised. This is consistent with the clarification of the SMIv2 module revision rules inSection4.9 of [RFC4181].7.2. Example: ifNumber and ifIndex of the IF-MIB The translations of the ifNumber scalar object and the ifIndex columnar object of the IF-MIB [RFC2863] are shown below. Since ifNumber is a scalar object in the interfaces branch of the IF-MIB, the YANG leaf ifNumber will be placed in a YANG container called interfaces, which is registered in the top-level container IF-MIB. leaf ifNumber { type int32; description "The number of network interfaces (regardless of their current state) present on this system."; smiv2:max-access "read-only"; smiv2:oid "1.3.6.1.2.1.2.1"; } leaf ifIndex { type if-mib:InterfaceIndex; description "A unique value, greater than zero, for each interface. It is recommended that values are assigned contiguously starting from 1. The value for each interface sub-layer must remain constant at least from one re-initialization of the entity's network management system to the next re- initialization."; smiv2:max-access "read-only"; smiv2:oid "1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.1"; }7.3. Non-Augmenting Conceptual Table Translation Rules An OBJECT-TYPE macro invocation defining a non-augmenting conceptual table is translated to a YANG container statement using the name of the OBJECT-TYPE macro invocation. This container is created in the top-level container representing the SMIv2 module. The clauses of the macro are translated as follows: o The SMIv2 SYNTAX clause is ignored o The SMIv2 UNITS clause is ignored. o The SMIv2 MAX-ACCESS clause is ignored.Schoenwaelder Standards Track [Page 13]
RFC 6643 Translation of SMIv2 to YANG July 2012 o The SMIv2 STATUS clause is mapped to the YANG status statement. The generation of the YANG status statement is skipped if the value of the STATUS clause is current. o The SMIv2 DESCRIPTION clause is mapped to the YANG description statement. o The SMIv2 REFERENCE clause is mapped to the YANG reference statement. o The value of the SMIv2 OBJECT-TYPE macro invocation is translated into an smiv2:oid statement. Refer to the YANG extension defined inSection 10. An OBJECT-TYPE macro invocation defining a conceptual row is translated to a YANG list statement. It is contained in the YANG container representing the conceptual table. The generated list uses the name of the row OBJECT-TYPE macro invocation. The clauses of the OBJECT-TYPE macro are translated as follows: o The SMIv2 SYNTAX clause is ignored. o The SMIv2 UNITS clause is ignored. o The SMIv2 MAX-ACCESS clause is ignored. o The SMIv2 STATUS clause is mapped to the YANG status statement. The generation of the YANG status statement is skipped if the value of the STATUS clause is current. o The SMIv2 DESCRIPTION clause is mapped to the YANG description statement. o The SMIv2 REFERENCE clause is mapped to the YANG reference statement. o The SMIv2 INDEX clause is mapped to the YANG key clause listing the columnar objects forming the key of the YANG list. If the same object appears more than once in the INDEX clause, append '_<n>' to the duplicate object name(s) where '<n>' counts the occurrences of the object in the INDEX clause, starting from 2. Additional leaf statements must be created to define the leafs introduced. o If the SMIv2 INDEX clause contains the IMPLIED keyword, then an smiv2:implied statement is generated to record the name of the object preceded by the IMPLIED keyword. Refer to the YANG extension defined inSection 10.Schoenwaelder Standards Track [Page 14]
RFC 6643 Translation of SMIv2 to YANG July 2012 o The value of the SMIv2 OBJECT-TYPE macro invocation is translated into an smiv2:oid statement. Refer to the YANG extension defined inSection 10. Within the list statement, YANG leaf statements are created for columnar objects as described inSection 7.1. For objects listed in the SMIv2 INDEX clause that are not part of the conceptual table itself, YANG leaf statements of type leafref pointing to the referenced definition are created.7.4. Example: ifTable of the IF-MIB The translation of the definition of the ifTable of the IF-MIB [RFC2863] is shown below. container ifTable { description "A list of interface entries. The number of entries is given by the value of ifNumber."; smiv2:oid "1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2"; list ifEntry { key "ifIndex"; description "An entry containing management information applicable to a particular interface."; smiv2:oid "1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1"; leaf ifIndex { type if-mib:InterfaceIndex; description "A unique value, greater than zero, for each interface. It is recommended that values are assigned contiguously starting from 1. The value for each interface sub-layer must remain constant at least from one re-initialization of the entity's network management system to the next re- initialization."; smiv2:max-access "read-only"; smiv2:oid "1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.1"; } // ... } }Schoenwaelder Standards Track [Page 15]
RFC 6643 Translation of SMIv2 to YANG July 20127.5. Example: ifRcvAddressTable of the IF-MIB The translation of the definition of the ifRcvAddressTable of the IF-MIB [RFC2863] is shown below. container ifRcvAddressTable { description "This table contains an entry for each address (broadcast, multicast, or uni-cast) for which the system will receive packets/frames on a particular interface, except as follows: - for an interface operating in promiscuous mode, entries are only required for those addresses for which the system would receive frames were it not operating in promiscuous mode. - for 802.5 functional addresses, only one entry is required, for the address which has the functional address bit ANDed with the bit mask of all functional addresses for which the interface will accept frames. A system is normally able to use any unicast address which corresponds to an entry in this table as a source address."; smiv2:oid "1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.4"; list ifRcvAddressEntry { key "ifIndex ifRcvAddressAddress"; description "A list of objects identifying an address for which the system will accept packets/frames on the particular interface identified by the index value ifIndex."; smiv2:oid "1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.4.1"; leaf ifIndex { type leafref { path "/if-mib:IF-MIB/if-mib:ifTable" + "/if-mib:ifEntry/if-mib:ifIndex"; } } leaf ifRcvAddressAddress { type yang:phys-address; description "An address for which the system will accept packets/frames on this entry's interface."; smiv2:max-access "not-accessible"; smiv2:oid "1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.4.1.1"; }Schoenwaelder Standards Track [Page 16]

Example: alHostTable of the RMON2-MIB The translation of the definition of the alHostTable of the RMON2-MIB [RFC4502] is shown below. container alHostTable { description "A collection of statistics for a particular protocol from a particular network address that has been discovered on an interface of this device. The probe will populate this table for all protocols in the protocol directory table whose value of protocolDirHostConfig is equal to supportedOn(3), and will delete any entries whose protocolDirEntry is deleted or has a protocolDirHostConfig value of supportedOff(2). The probe will add to this table all addresses seen as the source or destination address in all packets with no MAC errors and will increment octet and packet counts in the table for all packets with no MAC errors. Further, entries will only be added to this table if their address exists in the nlHostTable and will be deleted from this table if their address is deleted from the nlHostTable."; smiv2:oid "1.3.6.1.2.1.16.16.1"; list alHostEntry { key "hlHostControlIndex alHostTimeMark protocolDirLocalIndex " + "nlHostAddress protocolDirLocalIndex_2"; description "A conceptual row in the alHostTable. The hlHostControlIndex value in the index identifies the hlHostControlEntry on whose behalf this entry was created. The first protocolDirLocalIndex value in the index identifies the network-layer protocol of the address. The nlHostAddress value in the index identifies the network- layer address of this entry. The second protocolDirLocalIndex value in the index identifies the protocol that is counted by this entry.

Augmenting Conceptual Tables Translation Rules An OBJECT-TYPE macro invocation defining an augmenting conceptual table is translated to a YANG smiv2:alias statement. Refer to the YANG extension defined inSection 10. The clauses of the macro are translated as follows: o The SMIv2 SYNTAX clause is ignored. o The SMIv2 UNITS clause is ignored. o The SMIv2 MAX-ACCESS clause is ignored. o The SMIv2 STATUS clause is mapped to the YANG status statement. The generation of the YANG status statement is skipped if the value of the STATUS clause is current.Schoenwaelder Standards Track [Page 18]
RFC 6643 Translation of SMIv2 to YANG July 2012 o The SMIv2 DESCRIPTION clause is mapped to the YANG description statement. o The SMIv2 REFERENCE clause is mapped to the YANG reference statement. o The value of the SMIv2 OBJECT-TYPE macro invocation is translated into an smiv2:oid statement. Refer to the YANG extension defined inSection 10. An OBJECT-TYPE macro invocation defining a conceptual row augmentation is translated to a YANG smiv2:alias statement and a YANG augment statement using the path to the augmented table as its argument. The clauses of the OBJECT-TYPE macro are translated as follows: o The SMIv2 SYNTAX clause is ignored. o The SMIv2 UNITS clause is ignored. o The SMIv2 MAX-ACCESS clause is ignored. o The SMIv2 STATUS clause is mapped to the YANG status statement. The generation of the YANG status statement is skipped if the value of the STATUS clause is current. o The SMIv2 DESCRIPTION clause is mapped to the YANG description statement. o The SMIv2 REFERENCE clause is mapped to the YANG reference statement. o The value of the SMIv2 OBJECT-TYPE macro invocation is translated into an smiv2:oid statement. Refer to the YANG extension defined inSection 10. Within the augment statement, YANG leaf statements are created as described inSection 7.1.Schoenwaelder Standards Track [Page 19]
RFC 6643 Translation of SMIv2 to YANG July 20127.8. Example: ifXTable of the IF-MIB The translation of the definition of the ifXTable of the IF-MIB [RFC2863] is shown below. smiv2:alias "ifXTable" { description "A list of interface entries. The number of entries is given by the value of ifNumber. This table contains additional objects for the interface table."; smiv2:oid "1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1"; } smiv2:alias "ifXEntry" { description "An entry containing additional management information applicable to a particular interface."; smiv2:oid "1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1"; } augment "/if-mib:IF-MIB/if-mib:ifTable/if-mib:ifEntry" { description "An entry containing additional management information applicable to a particular interface."; smiv2:oid "1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1"; leaf ifName { type snmpv2-tc:DisplayString; description "The textual name of the interface. The value of this object should be the name of the interface as assigned by the local device and should be suitable for use in commands entered at the device's `console'. This might be a text name, such as `le0' or a simple port number, such as `1', depending on the interface naming syntax of the device. If several entries in the ifTable together represent a single interface as named by the device, then each will have the same value of ifName. Note that for an agent which responds to SNMP queries concerning an interface on some other (proxied) device, then the value of ifName for such an interface is the proxied device's local name for it. If there is no local name, or this object is otherwise not applicable, then this object contains a zero-length string."; smiv2:max-access "read-only"; smiv2:oid "1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.1"; }Schoenwaelder Standards Track [Page 20]
RFC 6643 Translation of SMIv2 to YANG July 2012 // ... }8. Translation of the OBJECT-IDENTITY Macro The SMIv2 uses invocations of the OBJECT-IDENTITY macro to define information about an OBJECT IDENTIFIER assignment. Invocations of the OBJECT-IDENTITY macro MUST be translated into YANG identity statements as detailed below.8.1. OBJECT-IDENTITY Translation Rules The name of the OBJECT-IDENTITY macro invocation is used as the name of the generated identity statement. The generated identity statement uses the smiv2:object-identity defined inSection 10 as its base. The clauses of the SMIv2 OBJECT-IDENTITY macro are mapped to YANG statements as follows: o The SMIv2 STATUS clause is mapped to the YANG status statement. The generation of the YANG status statement is skipped if the value of the STATUS clause is current. o The SMIv2 DESCRIPTION clause is mapped to the YANG description statement. o The SMIv2 REFERENCE clause is mapped to the YANG reference statement. o The value of the SMIv2 OBJECT-IDENTITY macro invocation is translated into an smiv2:oid statement. Refer to the YANG extension defined inSection 10.8.2. Example: diffServTBParamSimpleTokenBucket of the DIFFSERV-MIB The translation of the diffServTBParamSimpleTokenBucket of the DIFFSERV-MIB [RFC3289] is shown below. (Please note that the description should refer toRFC 3290, Section 5.1.3.) identity diffServTBParamSimpleTokenBucket { base "smiv2:object-identity"; description "Two Parameter Token Bucket Meter as described in the Informal Differentiated Services Modelsection 5.2.3."; smiv2:oid "1.3.6.1.2.1.97.3.1.1"; }Schoenwaelder Standards Track [Page 21]
RFC 6643 Translation of SMIv2 to YANG July 20129. Translation of the NOTIFICATION-TYPE Macro SMIv2 provides the NOTIFICATION-TYPE macro to define event notifications. YANG provides the notification statement for the same purpose. Invocations of the NOTIFICATION-TYPE macro MUST be translated into YANG notification statements as detailed below.9.1. NOTIFICATION-TYPE Translation Rules The name of the NOTIFICATION-TYPE macro invocation is used as the name of the generated notification statement. The clauses of the NOTIFICATION-TYPE macro are mapped to YANG statements embedded in the notification statement as follows. o The SMIv2 OBJECTS clause is mapped to a sequence of YANG containers. For each object listed in the OBJECTS clause value, a YANG container statement is generated. The name of this container is the string "object-<n>", where <n> is the position of the object in the value of the OBJECTS clause (first element has position 1). If the current object belongs to a conceptual table, then a sequence of leaf statements is generated for each INDEX object of the conceptual table. These leafs are named after the INDEX objects and of type leafref. Finally, a leaf statement is generated named after the current object. If the current object has a MAX-ACCESS of "read-only", "read-write", or "read-create", then the generated leaf is of type leafref. Otherwise, if the current object has a MAX-ACCESS of "accessible-for-notify", then a leaf is generated, following the steps inSection 7.1. o The SMIv2 STATUS clause is mapped to the YANG status statement. The generation of the YANG status statement is skipped if the value of the STATUS clause is current. o The SMIv2 DESCRIPTION clause is mapped to the YANG description statement. o The SMIv2 REFERENCE clause is mapped to the YANG reference statement. o The value of the SMIv2 NOTIFICATION-TYPE macro invocation is translated into an smiv2:oid statement. Refer to the YANG extension defined inSection 10.Schoenwaelder Standards Track [Page 22]
RFC 6643 Translation of SMIv2 to YANG July 20129.2. Example: linkDown NOTIFICATION-TYPE of IF-MIB The translation of the linkDown notification of the IF-MIB [RFC2863] is shown below. notification linkDown { description "A linkDown trap signifies that the SNMP entity, acting in an agent role, has detected that the ifOperStatus object for one of its communication links is about to enter the down state from some other state (but not from the notPresent state). This other state is indicated by the included value of ifOperStatus."; smiv2:oid "1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5.3"; container object-1 { leaf ifIndex { type leafref { path "/if-mib:IF-MIB/if-mib:ifTable" + "/if-mib:ifEntry/if-mib:ifIndex"; } } } container object-2 { leaf ifIndex { type leafref { path "/if-mib:IF-MIB/if-mib:ifTable" + "/if-mib:ifEntry/if-mib:ifIndex"; } } leaf ifAdminStatus { type leafref { path "/if-mib:IF-MIB/if-mib:ifTable" + "/if-mib:ifEntry/if-mib:ifAdminStatus"; } } } container object-3 { leaf ifIndex { type leafref { path "/if-mib:IF-MIB/if-mib:ifTable" + "/if-mib:ifEntry/if-mib:ifIndex"; } } leaf ifOperStatus { type leafref {Schoenwaelder Standards Track [Page 23]

Implementing Configuration Data Nodes The result of the translation of SMIv2 MIB modules into YANG modules, even if SMIv2 objects are read-write or read-create, consists of read-only (config false) YANG objects. One reason is that the persistency models of the underlying protocols, SNMP and NETCONF, are quite different. With SNMP, the persistency of a writable object depends either on the object definition itself (i.e., the text in the DESCRIPTION clause) or the persistency properties of the conceptual row it is part of, sometimes controlled via a columnar object using the StorageType textual convention. With NETCONF, the persistency of configuration objects is determined by the properties of the underlying datastore. Furthermore, NETCONF as defined in [RFC6241] does not provide a standard operation to modify operational state. The <edit-config> and <copy-config> operations only manipulate configuration data. As a consequence of these considerations, it is not possible to generate YANG configuration data nodes from SMIv2 definitions in an automated way.Schoenwaelder Standards Track [Page 27]
RFC 6643 Translation of SMIv2 to YANG July 2012 However, for selected SMIv2 objects where the SNMP and NETCONF persistency semantics are consistent, implementations may choose to implement some YANG data nodes generated from SMIv2 definitions as configuration data nodes. Such a deviation from the generated read- only YANG module should be formally documented in the form of a separate YANG module that uses YANG deviation statements to change the config property of the data nodes implemented as configuration data nodes from false to true. Deviations that change the config false property to true without any other changes to the semantics of the data node do not affect the compliance with the YANG module generated from an SMIv2 module.11.1. Example: addressMapControlTable of RMON2-MIB The following example demonstrates how certain columnar objects of the addressMapControlTable of the RMON2-MIB [RFC4502] can be turned into YANG configuration data nodes. Note that YANG deviations affect the property of the target node only and are not inherited downwards. module acme-RMON2-MIB-deviations { namespace "http://acme.example.com/RMON2-MIB-deviations"; prefix "acme-rmon2-devs"; import RMON2-MIB { prefix "rmon2-mib"; revision-date 2006-05-02; } revision 2012-01-11 { description "First version."; } deviation "/rmon2-mib:RMON2-MIB" { deviate replace { config true; } } deviation "/rmon2-mib:RMON2-MIB/" + "rmon2-mib:addressMapControlTable" { deviate replace { config true; } }Schoenwaelder Standards Track [Page 28]

Security Considerations This document defines a translation of SMIv2 MIB modules into YANG modules, enabling read-only (config false) access to data objects defined in SMIv2 MIB modules via NETCONF. The translation itself has no security impact on the Internet.Schoenwaelder Standards Track [Page 30]
RFC 6643 Translation of SMIv2 to YANG July 2012 Users of YANG data models generated from SMIv2 data models that have been published in the RFC series are advised to consult the security considerations of the respective RFCs. The security considerations of RFCs containing SMIv2 data models explain which objects are sensitive and important to protect. NETCONF users are encouraged to make use of the NETCONF access control model [RFC6536], which allows the specification of access control rules to protect potentially sensitive information.14.

Module Prefix Generation (Informative) This section describes an algorithm to generate module prefixes to be used in the import statements. The input of the prefix generation algorithm is a set of prefixes (usually derived from imported module names) and a specific module name to be converted into a prefix. The algorithm described below produces a prefix for the given module name that is unique within the set of prefixes.Schoenwaelder Standards Track [Page 35]
RFC 6643 Translation of SMIv2 to YANG July 2012 +-----------------+--------+ | YANG Module | Prefix | +-----------------+--------+ | ietf-yang-types | yang | | ietf-inet-types | inet | | ietf-yang-smiv2 | smiv2 | +-----------------+--------+ Table 1: Special Prefixes For Well-Known YANG Modules o First, some predefined translations mapping well-known YANG modules to short prefixes are tried (see Table 1). If a fixed translation rule exists and leads to a conflict-free prefix, then the fixed translation is used. o Otherwise, prefixes are generated by tokenizing a YANG module name, using hyphens as token separators. The tokens derived from the module name are converted to lowercase characters. The prefix then becomes the shortest sequence of tokens concatenated using hyphens as separators, which includes at least two tokens and which is unique among all prefixes used in the YANG module. In the worst case, the prefix derived from an SMIv2 module name becomes the SMIv2 module name translated to lowercase. But on average, much shorter prefixes are generated.Author's Address Juergen Schoenwaelder Jacobs University EMail: j.schoenwaelder@jacobs-university.deSchoenwaelder Standards Track [Page 36]
