Abstract + + This memo defines an experimental portion of the Management + Information Base (MIB) for use with network management protocols in + TCP/IP-based internets. In particular, this memo defines managed + objects used for managing subnetworks which use the IEEE 802.5 Token + Ring technology described in 802.5 Token Ring Access Method and + Physical Layer Specifications, IEEE Standard 802.5-1989. + + + + + + +Transmission Working Group [Page 1] + +RFC 1231 IEEE 802.5 MIB May 1991 + + +2. The Network Management Framework + + The Internet-standard Network Management Framework consists of three + components. They are: + + RFC 1155 which defines the SMI, the mechanisms used for describing + and naming objects for the purpose of management. RFC 1212 + defines a more concise description mechanism, which is wholly + consistent with the SMI. + + RFC 1156 which defines MIB-I, the core set of managed objects for + the Internet suite of protocols. RFC 1213, defines MIB-II, an + evolution of MIB-I based on implementation experience and new + operational requirements. + + RFC 1157 which defines the SNMP, the protocol used for network + access to managed objects. + + The Framework permits new objects to be defined for the purpose of + experimentation and evaluation. + +3. Objects + + Managed objects are accessed via a virtual information store, termed + the Management Information Base or MIB. Objects in the MIB are + defined using the subset of Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1) [7] + defined in the SMI. In particular, each object has a name, a syntax, + and an encoding. The name is an object identifier, an + administratively assigned name, which specifies an object type. The + object type together with an object instance serves to uniquely + identify a specific instantiation of the object. For human + convenience, we often use a textual string, termed the OBJECT + DESCRIPTOR, to also refer to the object type. + + The syntax of an object type defines the abstract data structure + corresponding to that object type. The ASN.1 language is used for + this purpose. However, the SMI [3] purposely restricts the ASN.1 + constructs which may be used. These restrictions are explicitly made + for simplicity. + + The encoding of an object type is simply how that object type is + represented using the object type's syntax. Implicitly tied to the + notion of an object type's syntax and encoding is how the object type + is represented when being transmitted on the network. + + The SMI specifies the use of the basic encoding rules of ASN.1 [8], + subject to the additional requirements imposed by the SNMP. + + + + +Transmission Working Group [Page 2] + +RFC 1231 IEEE 802.5 MIB May 1991 + + +3.1. Format of Definitions + + Section 5 contains contains the specification of all object types + contained in this MIB module. The object types are defined using the + conventions defined in the SMI, as amended by the extensions + specified in [9,10]. + +4. Overview + + This memo defines three tables: the 802.5 Interface Table, which + contains state and parameter information which is specific to 802.5 + interfaces, the 802.5 Statistics Table, which contains 802.5 + interface statistics, and the 802.5 Timer Table, which contains the + values of 802.5-defined timers. A managed system will have one entry + in the 802.5 Interface Table and one entry in the 802.5 Statistics + Table for each of its 802.5 interfaces. Implementation of the 802.5 + Timer Table is optional. + + This memo also defines OBJECT IDENTIFIERs, some to identify 802.5 + tests, for use with the ifExtnsTestTable defined in [11], and some to + identify Token Ring interface Chip Sets, for use with the + ifExtnsChipSet object defined in [11]. + +4.1. Scope of Definitions + + All objects defined in this memo are registered in a single subtree + within the experimental namespace [3], and are for use with every + interface which conforms to the IEEE 802.5 Token Ring Access Method + and Physical Layer Specifications [10]. At present, this applies to + interfaces for which the ifType variable in the Internet-standard MIB + [4,6] has the value: + + iso88025-tokenRing(9) + + For these interfaces, the value of the ifSpecific variable in the + MIB-II [6] has the OBJECT IDENTIFIER value: + + dot5 OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { experimental 4 } + + as defined below. + +4.2. Textual Conventions + + A new datatype, MacAddress, is introduced as a textual convention in + this document. This textual convention has NO effect on either the + syntax nor the semantics of any managed object. Objects defined using + this convention are always encoded by means of the rules that define + their primitive type. Hence, no changes to the SMI or the SNMP are + + + +Transmission Working Group [Page 3] + +RFC 1231 IEEE 802.5 MIB May 1991 + + + necessary to accommodate this textual convention which is adopted + merely for the convenience of readers. + +5.
