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 describes managed objects for modeling a Generalized Multiprotocol Label Switching (GMPLS) [RFC3945] Label Switching Router (LSR). 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 BCP 14, RFC 2119 [RFC2119].

1.1. Migration Strategy

MPLS LSRs may be modeled and managed using the MPLS-LSR-STD-MIB module [RFC3813]. LSRs may be migrated to be modeled and managed using the MIB modules in this document in order to migrate the LSRs to GMPLS support, or to take advantage of additional MIB objects defined in these MIB modules that are applicable to MPLS-TE.
Top   ToC   RFC4803 - Page 3
   The GMPLS LSR MIB module (GMPLS-LSR-STD-MIB), defined in this
   document, extends the MPLS-LSR-STD-MIB module [RFC3813] through a
   series of sparse augmentations of the MIB tables.  The only additions
   are for support of GMPLS or to support the increased complexity of
   MPLS and GMPLS systems.

   In order to migrate from MPLS-LSR-STD-MIB support to GMPLS-LSR-STD-
   MIB support, an implementation needs only to add support for the
   additional tables and objects defined in GMPLS-LSR-STD-MIB.  The
   gmplsInterfaceSignalingCaps object allows an implementation to use
   the objects and tables of GMPLS-LSR-STD-MIB without supporting the
   GMPLS protocols.

   The GMPLS Label MIB module (GMPLS-LABEL-STD-MIB), also defined in
   this document, allows labels to be configured and examined, and it
   supports more varieties of labels as appropriate for GMPLS.  Labels
   may be referenced using a row pointer from objects within the GMPLS-
   LSR-STD-MIB module.  MPLS implementations (MPLS-LSR-STD-MIB) may also
   reference labels held in the GMPLS-LABEL-STD-MIB module through the
   various label pointer objects in the MPLS-LSR-STD-MIB module (such as
   mplsInSegmentLabelPtr), and may do so without implementing the
   GMPLS-LSR-STD-MIB module.

   The companion document modeling and managing GMPLS-based traffic
   engineering [RFC4802] extends the MPLS-TE-STD-MIB module [RFC3812]
   with the same intentions.

   Textual conventions are defined in [RFC4801], which extends the set
   of textual conventions originally defined in [RFC3811].

2. Terminology

This document uses terminology from the document describing the MPLS architecture [RFC3031] and the GMPLS architecture [RFC3945]. A Label Switched Path (LSP) is modeled as a connection consisting of one or more incoming segments (in-segments) and/or one or more outgoing segments (out-segments) at an LSR. The association or interconnection of the in-segments and out-segments is accomplished by using a cross-connect. We use the terminology "connection" and "LSP" interchangeably where the meaning is clear from the context. in-segment This is analogous to a GMPLS Label on an interface. out-segment This is analogous to a GMPLS Label on an interface.
Top   ToC   RFC4803 - Page 4
   cross-connect  This describes the conceptual connection between a set
                  of in-segments and out-segments.  Note that either set
                  may be empty; for example, a cross-connect may connect
                  only out-segments together with no in-segments in the
                  case where an LSP originates on an LSR.

   The terms 'ingress' and 'head-end' (or 'head') are used in this
   document to indicate the signaling source of an LSP.  This is
   sometimes also referred to as the 'sender'.

   The terms 'egress' and 'tail-end' (or 'tail') are used in this
   document to indicate the signaling destination of an LSP.

   The term 'upstream' is used in this document to refer to the part of
   an LSP that is closer to the ingress than the current point of
   reference.

   The term 'downstream' is used in this document to refer to the part
   of an LSP that is closer to the egress than the current point of
   reference.

   The term 'forward' is used in this document to indicate the direction
   of data flow from the ingress toward the egress.

   The term 'reverse' is used in this document to indicate the direction
   of data flow from the egress toward the ingress.

3. The Internet-Standard Management Framework

For a detailed overview of the documents that describe the current Internet-Standard Management Framework, please refer to section 7 of RFC 3410 [RFC3410]. Managed objects are accessed via a virtual information store, termed the Management Information Base or MIB. MIB objects are generally accessed through the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). Objects in the MIB are defined using the mechanisms defined in the Structure of Management Information (SMI). This memo specifies a MIB module that is compliant to the SMIv2, which is described in STD 58, RFC 2578 [RFC2578], STD 58, RFC 2579 [RFC2579] and STD 58, RFC 2580 [RFC2580].

4. Outline

4.1. MIB Modules

There are two MIB modules defined in this document. The GMPLS-LSR-STD-MIB module contains tables that sparse augment tables defined in the MPLS-LSR-STD-MIB module [RFC3813]. This MIB module is used in conjunction with the MPLS-LSR-STD-MIB module [RFC3813] in systems that support GMPLS. The GMPLS-LABEL-STD-MIB module contains objects for managing GMPLS Labels when they cannot be represented using the textual conventions of the MPLS-TC-STD-MIB module [RFC3811], or when more detailed access to the sub-fields of the labels is required.

4.1.1. Summary of the GMPLS-LSR-STD-MIB Module

The MIB tables in the GMPLS-LSR-STD-MIB module are as follows: - The interface configuration table (gmplsInterfaceTable) sparse augments the mplsInterfaceTable [RFC3813] to enable the GMPLS protocol on MPLS-capable interfaces. - The in-segment (gmplsInSegmentTable) and out-segment (gmplsOutSegmentTable) tables sparse augment mplsInSegmentTable and mplsOutSegmentTable [RFC3813] to enable configuration of GMPLS-specific parameters for LSP segments at an LSR. These tables are described in the subsequent sections.

4.1.2. Summary of the GMPLS-LABEL-STD-MIB Module

There is one MIB table in the GMPLS-LABEL-STD-MIB module as follows: - The gmplsLabelTable allows Generalized Labels to be defined and managed in a central location. Generalized Labels can be of variable length and have distinct bit-by-bit interpretations depending upon how they are defined for the specific technology in which they are used. For example, labels used for MPLS packet switching are different in length and content from labels used in Time Division Multiplexer (TDM) timeslot switching.

4.2. Configuring Statically Provisioned LSPs

Configuring statically provisioned GMPLS LSPs through an LSR involves the following steps:
Top   ToC   RFC4803 - Page 6
   -  Configuring an interface using the MPLS-LSR-STD-MIB module
      [RFC3813].

   -  Enabling GMPLS on GMPLS-capable interfaces using the GMPLS-LSR-
      STD-MIB module in this document.

   -  Configuring in-segments and out-segments using the MPLS-LSR-STD-
      MIB module [RFC3813].

   -  Configuring GMPLS extensions to the in-segments and out-segments
      using the GMPLS-LSR-STD-MIB module in this document.

   -  Setting up the cross-connect table in the MPLS-LSR-STD-MIB module
      [RFC3813] to associate segments and/or to indicate connection
      origination and termination.

   -  Optionally setting up labels in the label table in the GMPLS-
      LABEL-STD-MIB module in this document if the textual convention
      MplsLabel [RFC3811] is not capable of holding the required label
      (for example, if the label requires more than 32 bits to encode
      it), or if the operator wishes to disambiguate GMPLS Label types.

   -  Optionally specifying label stack actions in the MPLS-LSR-STD-MIB
      module [RFC3813].

   -  Optionally specifying segment traffic parameters in the MPLS-LSR-
      STD-MIB module [RFC3813].

5. Bidirectional LSPs

The GMPLS-LSR-STD-MIB module supports bidirectional LSPs as required for GMPLS. A single value of mplsXCIndex is shared by all of the segments for the entire bidirectional LSP. This facilitates a simple reference from [RFC3812] and [RFC4802] and makes fate-sharing more obvious. It is, however, important that the direction of segments is understood to avoid connecting all in-segments to all out-segments. This is achieved by an object in each segment that indicates the direction of the segment with respect to data flow. A segment that is marked as 'forward' carries data from the 'head' of the LSP to the 'tail'. A segment marked as 'reverse' carries data in the reverse direction.
Top   ToC   RFC4803 - Page 7
   Where an LSP is signaled using a conventional signaling protocol, the
   'head' of the LSP is the source of the signaling (also known as the
   ingress) and the 'tail' is the destination (also known as the
   egress).  For manually configured LSPs, an arbitrary decision must be
   made about which segments are 'forward' and which 'reverse'.  For
   consistency, this decision should be made across all LSRs that
   participate in the LSP by assigning 'head' and 'tail' ends to the
   LSP.

6. Example of LSP Setup

In this section, we provide a brief example of using the MIB objects described in sections 7 and 8 to set up an LSP. While this example is not meant to illustrate every nuance of the MIB modules, it is intended as an aid to understanding some of the key concepts. It is meant to be read after going through the MIB modules themselves. A prerequisite is an understanding of the MPLS-LSR-STD-MIB module [RFC3813]. Suppose that one would like to manually create a best-effort, bidirectional LSP. Assume that, in the forward direction, the LSP enters the LSR via MPLS interface A with ifIndex 12 and exits the LSR via MPLS interface B with ifIndex 13. For the reverse direction, we assume that the LSP enters via interface B and leaves via interface A (i.e., the forward and reverse directions use the same bidirectional interfaces). Let us also assume that we do not wish to have a label stack beneath the top label on the outgoing labeled packets. The following example illustrates which rows and corresponding objects might be created to accomplish this. We must first create rows in the gmplsLabelTable corresponding to the labels required for each of the forward- and reverse-direction in- and out-segments. For the purpose of this example, the forward and reverse labels on each interface will be the same, hence we need to create just two rows in the gmplsLabelTable - one for each interface. In gmplsLabelTable: { gmplsLabelInterface = 12, gmplsLabelIndex = 1, gmplsLabelSubindex = 0, gmplsLabelType = gmplsFreeformLabel(3), gmplsLabelFreeform = 0x123456789ABCDEF0 gmplsLabelRowStatus = createAndGo(4) }
Top   ToC   RFC4803 - Page 8
   In gmplsLabelTable:
   {
     gmplsLabelInterface           = 13,
     gmplsLabelIndex               = 1,
     gmplsLabelSubindex            = 0,
     gmplsLabelType                = gmplsFreeformLabel(3),
     gmplsLabelFreeform            = 0xFEDCBA9876543210
     gmplsLabelRowStatus           = createAndGo(4)
   }

   We must next create the appropriate in-segment and out-segment
   entries.  These are done in [RFC3813] using the mplsInSegmentTable
   and mplsOutSegmentTable.  Note that we use a row pointer to the two
   rows in the gmplsLabelTable rather than specify the labels explicitly
   in the in- and out-segment tables.  Also note that the row status for
   each row is set to createAndWait(5) to allow corresponding entries in
   the gmplsInSegmentTable and gmplsOutSegmentTable to be created.

   For the forward direction.

   In mplsInSegmentTable:
   {
      mplsInSegmentIndex           = 0x00000015
      mplsInSegmentLabel           = 0, -- incoming label in label table
      mplsInSegmentNPop            = 1,
      mplsInSegmentInterface       = 12, -- incoming interface

      -- RowPointer MUST point to the first accessible column.
      mplsInSegmentTrafficParamPtr    = 0.0,
      mplsInSegmentLabelPtr           = gmplsLabelTable(12,1,0)
      mplsInSegmentRowStatus          = createAndWait(5)
   }

   In mplsOutSegmentTable:
   {
      mplsOutSegmentIndex          = 0x00000012,
      mplsOutSegmentInterface      = 13, -- outgoing interface
      mplsOutSegmentPushTopLabel   = true(1),
      mplsOutSegmentTopLabel       = 0, -- outgoing label in label table

      -- RowPointer MUST point to the first accessible column.
      mplsOutSegmentTrafficParamPtr   = 0.0,
      mplsOutSegmentLabelPtr          = gmplsLabelTable(13,1,0)
      mplsOutSegmentRowStatus         = createAndWait(5)
   }
Top   ToC   RFC4803 - Page 9
   For the reverse direction.

   In mplsInSegmentTable:
   {
      mplsInSegmentIndex           = 0x00000016
      mplsInSegmentLabel           = 0, -- incoming label in label table
      mplsInSegmentNPop            = 1,
      mplsInSegmentInterface       = 13, -- incoming interface

      -- RowPointer MUST point to the first accessible column.
      mplsInSegmentTrafficParamPtr    = 0.0,
      mplsInSegmentLabelPtr           = gmplsLabelTable(13,1,0)

      mplsInSegmentRowStatus          = createAndWait(5)
   }

   In mplsOutSegmentTable:
   {
      mplsOutSegmentIndex          = 0x00000013,
      mplsOutSegmentInterface      = 12, -- outgoing interface
      mplsOutSegmentPushTopLabel   = true(1),
      mplsOutSegmentTopLabel       = 0, -- outgoing label in label table

      -- RowPointer MUST point to the first accessible column.
      mplsOutSegmentTrafficParamPtr   = 0.0,
      mplsOutSegmentLabelPtr          = gmplsLabelTable(12,1,0)
      mplsOutSegmentRowStatus         = createAndWait(5)
   }

   These table entries are extended by entries in the
   gmplsInSegmentTable and gmplsOutSegmentTable.  Note that the nature
   of the 'extends' relationship is a sparse augmentation so that the
   entry in the gmplsInSegmentTable has the same index values as the
   entry in the mplsInSegmentTable.  Similarly, the entry in the
   gmplsOutSegmentTable has the same index values as the entry in the
   mplsOutSegmentTable.

   First for the forward direction:

   In gmplsInSegmentTable(0x00000015)
   {
     gmplsInSegmentDirection          = forward(1)
   }

   In gmplsOutSegmentTable(0x00000012)
   {
     gmplsOutSegmentDirection         = forward(1)
   }
Top   ToC   RFC4803 - Page 10
   Next for the reverse direction:

   In gmplsInSegmentTable(0x00000016)
   {
     gmplsInSegmentDirection          = reverse(2)
   }

   In gmplsOutSegmentTable(0x00000013)
   {
     gmplsOutSegmentDirection         = reverse(2)
   }

   Next, two cross-connect entries are created in the mplsXCTable of the
   MPLS-LSR-STD-MIB [RFC3813], thereby associating the newly created
   segments together.

   In mplsXCTable:
   {
      mplsXCIndex                = 0x01,
      mplsXCInSegmentIndex       = 0x00000015,
      mplsXCOutSegmentIndex      = 0x00000012,
      mplsXCLspId                = 0x0102 -- unique ID
      mplsXCLabelStackIndex      = 0x00, -- only a single outgoing label
      mplsXCRowStatus            = createAndGo(4)
   }

   In mplsXCTable:
   {
      mplsXCIndex                = 0x02,
      mplsXCInSegmentIndex       = 0x00000016,
      mplsXCOutSegmentIndex      = 0x00000013,
      mplsXCLspId                = 0x0102 -- unique ID
      mplsXCLabelStackIndex      = 0x00, -- only a single outgoing label
      mplsXCRowStatus            = createAndGo(4)
   }

   Finally, the in-segments and out-segments are activated.

   In mplsInSegmentTable(0x00000015):
   {
      mplsInSegmentRowStatus          = active(1)
   }
   In mplsInSegmentTable(0x00000016):
   {
      mplsInSegmentRowStatus          = active(1)
   }
Top   ToC   RFC4803 - Page 11
   In mplsOutSegmentTable(0x00000012):
   {
      mplsOutSegmentRowStatus         = active(1)
   }

   In mplsOutSegmentTable(0x00000013):
   {
      mplsOutSegmentRowStatus         = active(1)
   }

  DESCRIPTION
    "A conceptual row in this table is created automatically by an
     LSR for each interface that is both capable of supporting
     GMPLS and configured to support GMPLS.  Note that
     support of GMPLS is not limited to control plane signaling,
     but may include data-plane-only function configured through
     SNMP SET commands performed on this MIB module.
Top   ToC   RFC4803 - Page 13
     A conceptual row in this table may also be created via SNMP
     SET commands or automatically by the LSR to supplement a
     conceptual row in the mplsInterfaceTable where the interface
     is not capable of GMPLS but where the other objects carried
     in this row provide useful additional information for an
     MPLS interface.

     A conceptual row in this table will exist if and only if a
     corresponding entry in the mplsInterfaceTable exists, and a
     corresponding entry in the ifTable exists with ifType = mpls(166).
     If the associated entry in the ifTable is operationally disabled
     (thus removing the GMPLS capabilities on the interface) or the
     entry in the mplsInterfaceTable is deleted, the corresponding entry
     in this table MUST be deleted shortly thereafter.

     The indexes are the same as for the mplsInterfaceTable.  Thus, the
     entry with index 0 represents the per-platform label space and
     contains parameters that apply to all interfaces that
     participate in the per-platform label space."

     of the more complex label forms required for GMPLS that cannot

     that cannot be encoded within 32 bits.  It is, nevertheless, also
     capable of holding 32-bit labels or regular MPLS Labels if
     desired.
Top   ToC   RFC4803 - Page 24
     Each entry in this table represents an individual GMPLS Label
     value.  The representation of Labels in tables in other MIB
     modules may be achieved by a referrence to an entry in this
     table by means of a row pointer into this table.  The indexing
     of this table provides for arbitrary indexing and also for
     concatenation of labels.

     For an example of label concatenation, see RFC 3945, section 7.1.
     In essence, a GMPLS Label may be composite in order to identify
     a set of resources in the data plane.  Practical examples are
     timeslots and wavelength sets (which are not contiguous like
     wavebands).

     The indexing mechanism allows multiple entries in this table to
     be seen as a sequence of labels that should be concatenated.
     Ordering is potentially very sensitive for concatenation."

  DESCRIPTION
    "An entry in this table represents a single label value.  There

     -  The interface index may be helpful to distinguish which
        labels are in use on which interfaces or to handle cases
        where there are a very large number of labels in use in the
        system.  When label representation is desired to apply to the
        whole system or when it is not important to distinguish
        labels by their interfaces, this index MAY be set to zero.

     -  The label index provides a way of identifying the label.

     -  The label sub-index is only used for concatenated labels.  It
        identifies each component label.  When non-concatenated labels
        are used, this index SHOULD be set to zero.

     A storage type object is supplied to control the storage type
     for each entry, but implementations should note that the storage
     type of conceptual rows in other tables that include row
     pointers to an entry in this table SHOULD dictate the storage
     type of the rows in this table where the row in the other table

     labels in a single label table.  Lastly, in GMPLS systems where
     Packet Labels are used (that is in systems that use GMPLS
     signaling and GMPLS Labels for packet switching), it may be
     desirable to use this table.

9. Security Considerations

It is clear that the MIB modules described in this document in association with MPLS-LSR-STD-MIB [RFC3813] are potentially useful for monitoring of GMPLS LSRs. These MIB modules can also be used for configuration of certain objects, and anything that can be configured can be incorrectly configured, with potentially disastrous results. There are a number of management objects defined in these MIB modules with a MAX-ACCESS clause of read-write and/or read-create. 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. These are the tables and objects and their sensitivity/vulnerability: o the gmplsInterfaceTable, gmplsInSegmentTable, gmplsOutSegmentTable, and gmplsLabelTable collectively contain objects to provision GMPLS interfaces, LSPs, and their associated parameters on a Label Switching Router (LSR). Unauthorized write access to objects in these tables could result in disruption of
Top   ToC   RFC4803 - Page 37
      traffic on the network.  This is especially true if an LSP has
      already been established.

   Some of the readable objects in these MIB modules (i.e., objects with
   a MAX-ACCESS other than not-accessible) may be considered sensitive
   or vulnerable in some network environments.  It is thus important to
   control even GET and/or NOTIFY access to these objects and possibly
   to even encrypt the values of these objects when sending them over
   the network via SNMP.  These are the tables and objects and their
   sensitivity/vulnerability:

   o  the gmplsInterfaceTable, gmplsInSegmentTable,
      gmplsOutSegmentTable, and gmplsLabelTable collectively show the
      LSP network topology and its capabilities.  If an administrator
      does not want to reveal this information, then these tables should
      be considered sensitive/vulnerable.

   SNMP versions prior to SNMPv3 did not include adequate security.
   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 these MIB modules.

   It is RECOMMENDED that implementers consider the security features as
   provided by the SNMPv3 framework (see [RFC3410], section 8),
   including full support for the SNMPv3 cryptographic mechanisms (for
   authentication and privacy).

   Further, deployment of SNMP versions prior to SNMPv3 is NOT
   RECOMMENDED.  Instead, it is RECOMMENDED to deploy SNMPv3 and to
   enable cryptographic security.  It is then a customer/operator
   responsibility to ensure that the SNMP entity giving access to an
   instance of this MIB module, is properly configured to give access to
   the objects only to those principals (users) that have legitimate
   rights to indeed GET or SET (change/create/delete) them.

10. Acknowledgments

This document is a product of the CCAMP Working Group. This document extends the MIB tables in [RFC3813]. The authors would like to express their gratitude to all those who worked on that earlier MIB document. The authors would like to express their thanks to Dan Joyle for his careful review and comments on early versions of the label table. Special thanks to Joan Cucchiara and Len Nieman for their help with
Top   ToC   RFC4803 - Page 38
   compilation issues.  Lars Eggert, Tom Petch, Dan Romascanu, and Bert
   Wijnen provided useful input in the final stages of review.

   Joan Cucchiara provided a helpful and very thorough MIB Doctor
   review.

11. IANA Considerations

IANA has rooted MIB objects in the two MIB modules contained in this document under the mplsStdMIB subtree. IANA has made the following assignments in the "NETWORK MANAGEMENT PARAMETERS" registry located at http://www.iana.org/assignments/ smi-numbers in table: ...mib-2.transmission.mplsStdMIB (1.3.6.1.2.1.10.166) Decimal Name References ------- ----- ---------- 15 GMPLS-LSR-STD-MIB [RFC4803] 16 GMPLS-LABEL-STD-MIB [RFC4803] In the future, GMPLS-related standards-track MIB modules should be rooted under the mplsStdMIB (sic) subtree. IANA has been requested to manage that namespace in the SMI Numbers registry [RFC3811]. New assignments can only be made via a Standards Action as specified in [RFC2434].
