+RFC 4292 IP Forwarding Table MIB April 2006
+
+
+1. Introduction
+
+ This document defines a portion of the Management Information Base
+ (MIB) for use in managing objects related to the forwarding of
+ Internet Protocol (IP) packets in an IP version-independent manner.
+
+ It should be noted that the MIB definition described herein does not
+ support multiple instances based on the same address family type.
+ However, it does support an instance of the MIB per address family.
+
+2. Conventions Used In This Document
+
+ 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 RFC 2119 [RFC2119].
+
+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. Overview
+
+ The MIB consists of one current table and two current global objects.
+
+ 1. The object inetCidrRouteNumber indicates the number of current
+ routes. This is primarily to avoid having to read the table in
+ order to determine this number.
+
+ 2. The object inetCidrRouteDiscards counts the number of valid
+ routes that were discarded from inetCidrRouteTable for any
+ reason. This object replaces the ipRoutingDiscards and
+ ipv6DiscardedRoutes objects.
+
+ 3. The inetCidrRouteTable provides the ability to display IP
+ version-independent multipath CIDR routes.
+

+
+
+4.1. Relationship to Other MIBs
+
+ This MIB definition contains several deprecated and obsolete tables
+ and objects. The following subsections describe the relationship
+ between these objects and other MIB modules.
+
+4.1.1. RFC 1213
+
+ The ipRouteTable object was originally defined in RFC 1213 [RFC1213].
+ It was updated by ipForwardTable in RFC 1354 [RFC1354].
+
+4.1.2. RFC 1354
+
+ The ipForwardTable object replaced the ipRouteTable object from RFC
+ 1213. It was in turn obsoleted by the ipCidrRouteTable defined in
+ RFC 2096 [RFC2096].
+
+ In addition, RFC 1354 introduced ipForwardNumber. This object
+ reflects the number of entries found in ipForwardTable. It was
+ obsoleted by ipCidrRouteNumber, defined in RFC 2096.
+
+4.1.3. RFC 2096
+
+ In RFC 2096, the ipCidrRouteTable and ipCidrRouteNumber were
+ introduced. The ipCidrRouteTable object supports multipath IP routes
+ having the same network number but differing network masks. The
+ number of entries in that table is reflected in ipCidrRouteNumber.
+ These objects are deprecated by the definitions contained in this MIB
+ definition.
+
+4.1.4. RFC 2011 and 2465
+
+ RFC 2011 [RFC2011] contains the ipRoutingDiscards object, which
+ counts the number of valid routes that have been removed from the
+ ipCidrRouteTable object. The corresponding ipv6DiscardedRoutes
+ object is defined in RFC 2465 [RFC2465]. These objects are
+ deprecated in favor of the version-independent object
+ inetCidrRouteDiscards defined in this MIB.

+
+ Adding a new conformance statement to support the

+6. Security Considerations
+
+ There are a number of management objects defined in this MIB module
+ 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:
+
+ 1. The inetCidrRouteTable contains routing and forwarding
+ information that is critical to the operation of the network
+ node (especially routers). Allowing unauthenticated write
+ access to this table can compromise the validity of the
+ forwarding information.
+
+ Some of the readable objects in this MIB module (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:
+
+ 1. The inetCidrRouteTable contains routing and forwarding
+ information that can be used to compromise a network.

+
+
+ Specifically, this table can be used to construct a map of the
+ network in preparation for a denial-of-service attack on the
+ network infrastructure.
+
+ 2. The inetCidrRouteProto object identifies the routing protocols
+ in use within a network. This information can be used to
+ determine how a denial-of-service attack should be launched.
+
+ 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 this MIB module.
+
+ 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.
+
+7. Changes from RFC 2096
+
+ This document obsoletes RFC 2096 in the following ways:
+
+ 1. Replaces ipCidrRouteTable with inetCidrRouteTable. This
+ applies to corresponding objects and conformance statements.
+
+ 2. Utilizes the InetAddress TC to support IP version-independent
+ implementations of the forwarding MIB. This gives common
+ forwarding MIB support for IPv4 and IPv6.
+
+ 3. Creates a read-only conformance statement to support
+ implementations that only wish to retrieve data.
+
+ 4. Creates the inetCidrRouteDiscards object to replace the
+ deprecated ipRoutingDiscards and ipv6DiscardedRoutes objects.
+
+ The inetCidrRouteTable retains the logical structure of the
+ ipCidrRouteTable in order to allow the easy upgrade of existing IPv4
+ implementations to the version-independent MIB.
