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]. + +1.1.

Usage Guidelines + +2.2.1. Usage of ifStackTable + + The object dsx3IfIndex has been deprecated. This object previously + allowed a very special proxy situation to exist for Routers and CSUs. + This section now describes how to use ifStackTable to represent this + relationship. + + The paragraphs discussing dsx3IfIndex and dsx3LineIndex have been + preserved in Appendix A for informational purposes. + + The ifStackTable is used in the proxy case to represent the + association between pairs of interfaces, e.g., this DS3 is attached + to that DS3. This use is consistent with the use of the ifStackTable + to show the association between various sub-layers of an interface. + In both cases entire PDUs are exchanged between the interface pairs - + in the case of a DS3, entire DS3 frames are exchanged; in the case of + PPP and HDLC, entire HDLC frames are exchanged. This usage is not + meant to suggest the use of the ifStackTable to represent Time + Division Multiplexing (TDM) connections in general. + + External&Internal interface scenario: the SNMP Agent resides on a + host external from the device supporting DS3/E3 interfaces (e.g., a + router). The Agent represents both the host and the DS3/E3 device. + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +Nicklass Standards Track [Page 5] + +RFC 3896 DS3/E3 MIB September 2004 + + + Example: + + A shelf full of CSUs connected to a Router.

Usage of Loopbacks + + This section discusses the behaviour of objects related to loopbacks. + + The object dsx3LoopbackConfig represents the desired state of + loopbacks on this interface. Using this object a Manager can + request: + LineLoopback + PayloadLoopback (if ESF framing) + InwardLoopback + DualLoopback (Line + Inward) + NoLoopback + + The remote end can also request lookbacks either through the FDL + channel if ESF or inband if D4. The loopbacks that can be requested + this way are: + + LineLoopback + PayloadLoopback (if ESF framing) + NoLoopback + + + +Nicklass Standards Track [Page 9] + +RFC 3896 DS3/E3 MIB September 2004 + + + To model the current state of loopbacks on a DS3 interface, the + object dsx3LoopbackStatus defines which loopback is currently applied + to an interface. This object, which is a bitmap, will have bits + turned on which reflect the currently active loopbacks on the + interface as well as the source of those loopbacks. + + The following restrictions/rules apply to loopbacks: + + The far end cannot undo loopbacks set by a manager. + + A manager can undo loopbacks set by the far end. + + Both a line loopback and an inward loopback can be set at the same + time. Only these two loopbacks can co-exist and either one may be + set by the manager or the far end. A LineLoopback request from the + far end is incremental to an existing Inward loopback established by + a manager. When a NoLoopback is received from the far end in this + case, the InwardLoopback remains in place. + +2.3. Objectives of this MIB Module + + There are numerous things that could be included in a MIB for DS3/E3 + signals: the management of multiplexors, CSUs, DSUs, and the like. + The intent of this document is to facilitate the common management of + all devices with DS3/E3 interfaces. As such, a design decision was + made up front to very closely align the MIB with the set of objects + that can generally be read from DS3/E3 devices that are currently + deployed. + +2.4. DS3/E3 Terminology + + The terminology used in this document to describe error conditions on + a DS3 interface as monitored by a DS3 device are based on the late + but not final draft of what became the ANSI T1.231 standard [ANSI- + T1.231]. If the definition in this document does not match the + definition in the ANSI T1.231 document, the implementer should follow + the definition described in this document. + +2.4.1. Error Events + + Bipolar Violation (BPV) Error Event + A bipolar violation error event, for B3ZS(HDB3)-coded signals, + is the occurrence of a pulse of the same polarity as the + previous pulse without being part of the zero substitution + code, B3ZS(HDB3). For B3ZS(HDB3)-coded signals, a bipolar + violation error event may also include other error patterns + such as: three(four) or more consecutive zeros and incorrect + polarity (See T1.231 section 7.1.1.1.1). + + + +Nicklass Standards Track [Page 10] + +RFC 3896 DS3/E3 MIB September 2004 + + + Excessive Zeros (EXZ) Error Event + An EXZ is the occurrence of any zero string length equal to or + greater than 3 for B3ZS, or greater than 4 for HDB3 (See T1.231 + section 7.1.1.1.2). + + Line Coding Violation (LCV) Error Event + This parameter is a count of both BPVs and EXZs occurring over + the accumulation period. An EXZ increments the LCV by one + regardless of the length of the zero string. (Also known as + CV-L. See T1.231 section 7.4.1.1.) + + P-bit Coding Violation (PCV) Error Event + For all DS3 applications, a coding violation error event is a + P-bit Parity Error event. A P-bit Parity Error event is the + occurrence of a received P-bit code on the DS3 M-frame that is + not identical to the corresponding locally-calculated code (See + T1.231 section 7.1.1.2.1). + + C-bit Coding Violation (CCV) Error Event + For C-bit Parity and SYNTRAN DS3 applications, this is the + count of coding violations reported via the C-bits. For C-bit + Parity, it is a count of CP-bit parity errors occurring in the + accumulation interval. For SYNTRAN, it is a count of CRC-9 + errors occurring in the accumulation interval (See T1.231 + section 7.1.1.2.2). + +2.4.2. Performance Parameters + + All performance parameters are accumulated in fifteen minute + intervals and up to 96 intervals (24 hours worth) are kept by an + agent. Fewer than 96 intervals of data will be available if the + agent has been restarted within the last 24 hours. In addition, + there is a rolling 24-hour total of each performance parameter. + + There is no requirement for an agent to ensure fixed relationship + between the start of a fifteen minute interval and any wall clock; + however some agents may align the fifteen minute intervals with + quarter hours. + + Performance parameters are of types PerfCurrentCount, + PerfIntervalCount and PerfTotalCount. These textual conventions are + all Gauge32, and they are used because it is possible for these + objects to decrease. Objects may decrease when Unavailable Seconds + occurs across a fifteen minutes interval boundary. See Unavailable + Seconds discussion later in this section. + + + + + + +Nicklass Standards Track [Page 11] + +RFC 3896 DS3/E3 MIB September 2004 + + + Line Errored Seconds (LES) + A Line Errored Second is a second in which one or more CV + occurred OR one or more LOS defects. (Also known as ES-L. + See T1.231 section 7.4.1.2.) + + P-bit Errored Seconds (PES) + An PES is a second with one or more PCVs OR one or more Out + of Frame defects OR a detected incoming AIS. This gauge is + not incremented when UASs are counted. (Also known as ESP-P. + See T1.231 section 7.4.2.2.) + + P-bit Severely Errored Seconds (PSES) + A PSES is a second with 44 or more PCVs OR one or more Out of + Frame defects OR a detected incoming AIS. This gauge is not + incremented when UASs are counted. (Also known as SESP-P. + See T1.231 section 7.4.2.5.) + + C-bit Errored Seconds (CES) + An CES is a second with one or more CCVs OR one or more Out + of Frame defects OR a detected incoming AIS. This count is + only for the SYNTRAN and C-bit Parity DS3 applications. This + gauge is not incremented when UASs are counted. (Also known + as ESCP-P. See T1.231 section 7.4.2.2.) + + C-bit Severely Errored Seconds (CSES) + A CSES is a second with 44 or more CCVs OR one or more Out of + Frame defects OR a detected incoming AIS. This count is only + for the SYNTRAN and C-bit Parity DS3 applications. This + gauge is not incremented when UASs are counted. (Also known + as SESCP-P. See T1.231 section 7.4.2.5.) + + Severely Errored Framing Seconds (SEFS) + A SEFS is a second with one or more Out of Frame defects OR a + detected incoming AIS. This item is not incremented during + unavailable seconds. (Also known as SAS-P. See T1.231 + section 7.4.2.6.) + + Unavailable Seconds (UAS) + UAS are calculated by counting the number of seconds that the + interface is unavailable. The DS3 interface is said to be + unavailable from the onset of 10 contiguous PSESs, or the + onset of the condition leading to a failure (see Failure + States). If the condition leading to the failure was + immediately preceded by one or more contiguous PSESs, then + the DS3 interface unavailability starts from the onset of + these PSESs. Once unavailable, and if no failure is present, + the DS3 interface becomes available at the onset of 10 + contiguous seconds with no PSESs. Once unavailable, and if a + + + +Nicklass Standards Track [Page 12] + +RFC 3896 DS3/E3 MIB September 2004 + + + failure is present, the DS3 interface becomes available at + the onset of 10 contiguous seconds with no PSESs, if the + failure clearing time is less than or equal to 10 seconds. + If the failure clearing time is more than 10 seconds, the DS3 + interface becomes available at the onset of 10 contiguous + seconds with no PSESs, or the onset period leading to the + successful clearing condition, whichever occurs later. With + respect to the DS3 error counts, all counters are incremented + while the DS3 interface is deemed available. While the + interface is deemed unavailable, the only count that is + incremented is UASs. + + Note that this definition implies that the agent cannot + determine until after a ten second interval has passed + whether a given one-second interval belongs to available or + unavailable time. If the agent chooses to update the various + performance statistics in real time then it must be prepared + to retroactively reduce the PES, PSES, CES, and CSES counts + by 10 and increase the UAS count by 10 when it determines + that available time has been entered. It must also be + prepared to adjust the PCV, CCV, and SEFS count as necessary + since these parameters are not accumulated during unavailable + time. Similarly, it must be prepared to retroactively + decrease the UAS count by 10 and increase the PES, CES, PCV, + and CCV counts as necessary upon entering available time. A + special case exists when the 10 second period leading to + available or unavailable time crosses a 900 second statistics + window boundary, as the foregoing description implies that + the PCV, CCV, PES, CES, PSES, CSEC, SEFS, and UAS counts for + the PREVIOUS interval must be adjusted. In this case + successive GETs of the affected dsx3IntervalPSESs and + dsx3IntervalUASs objects will return differing values if the + first GET occurs during the first few seconds of the window. + + The agent may instead choose to delay updates to the various + statistics by 10 seconds in order to avoid retroactive + adjustments to the counters. A way to do this is sketched in + Appendix B. + + In any case, a linkDown trap shall be sent only after the agent has + determined for certain that the unavailable state has been entered, + but the time on the trap will be that of the first UAS (i.e., 10 + seconds earlier). A linkUp trap shall be handled similarly. + + According to [ANSI-T1.231] unavailable time begins at the _onset_ of + 10 contiguous severely errored seconds -- that is, unavailable time + starts with the _first_ of the 10 contiguous SESs. Also, while an + interface is deemed unavailable all counters for that interface are + + + +Nicklass Standards Track [Page 13] + +RFC 3896 DS3/E3 MIB September 2004 + + + frozen except for the UAS count. It follows that an implementation + which strictly complies with this standard must _not_ increment any + counters other than the UAS count -- even temporarily -- as a result + of anything that happens during those 10 seconds. Since changes in + the signal state lag the data to which they apply by 10 seconds, an + ANSI-compliant implementation must pass the one-second statistics + through a 10-second delay line prior to updating any counters. That + can be done by performing the following steps at the end of each one + second interval. + + i) Read near/far end CV counter and alarm status flags from the + hardware. + + ii) Accumulate the CV counts for the preceding second and compare + them to the ES and SES threshold for the layer in question. + Update the signal state and shift the one-second CV counts + and ES/SES flags into the 10-element delay line. Note that + far-end one-second statistics are to be flagged as "absent" + during any second in which there is an incoming defect at the + layer in question or at any lower layer. + + iii) Update the current interval statistics using the signal state + from the _previous_ update cycle and the one-second CV counts + and ES/SES flags shifted out of the 10-element delay line. + + This approach is further described in Appendix B. + +2.4.3. Performance Defects + + Failure States: + The Remote Alarm Indication (RAI) failure, in SYNTRAN + applications, is declared after detecting the Yellow Alarm + Signal on the alarm channel. See ANSI T1.107a-1990 [ANSI- + T1.107a]. The Remote Alarm Indication failure, in C-bit + Parity DS3 applications, is declared as soon as the presence + of either one or two alarm signals are detected on the Far + End Alarm Channel. See [ANSI-T1.107]. The Remote Alarm + Indication failure may also be declared after detecting the + far-end SEF/AIS defect (aka yellow). The Remote Alarm + Indication failure is cleared as soon as the presence of the + any of the above alarms are removed. + + Also, the incoming failure state is declared when a defect + persists for at least 2-10 seconds.

Appendix A - Use of dsx3IfIndex and dsx3LineIndex + + This Appendix exists to document the previous use if dsx3IfIndex and + dsx3LineIndex and to clarify the relationship of dsx3LineIndex as + defined in RFC 1407 with the dsx3LineIndex as defined in this + document. + + The following shows the old and new definitions and the relationship: + + [New Definition]: "This object should be made equal to ifIndex. The + next paragraph describes its previous usage. Making the object equal + to ifIndex allows proper use of ifStackTable. + + [Old Definition]: "this object is the identifier of a DS3/E3 + Interface on a managed device. If there is an ifEntry that is + directly associated with this and only this DS3/E3 interface, it + should have the same value as ifIndex. Otherwise, number the + dsx3LineIndices with an unique identifier following the rules of + choosing a number that is greater than ifNumber and numbering the + inside interfaces (e.g., equipment side) with even numbers and + outside interfaces (e.g, network side) with odd numbers." + + When the "Old Definition" was created, it was described this way to + allow a manager to treat the value _as if_ it were an ifIndex, i.e., + the value would either be: 1) an ifIndex value or 2) a value that + was guaranteed to be different from all valid ifIndex values. + + The new definition is a subset of that definition, i.e., the value is + always an ifIndex value. + + The following is Section 3.1 from [RFC1407]: + + Different physical configurations for the support of SNMP with DS3/E3 + equipment exist. To accommodate these scenarios, two different + indices for DS3/E3 interfaces are introduced in this MIB. These + indices are dsx3IfIndex and dsx3LineIndex. + + External interface scenario: the SNMP Agent represents all managed + DS3/E3 lines as external interfaces (for example, an Agent residing + on the device supporting DS3/E3 interfaces directly): + + + + + + + + + + + +Nicklass Standards Track [Page 54] + +RFC 3896 DS3/E3 MIB September 2004 + + + For this scenario, all interfaces are assigned an integer value equal + to ifIndex, and the following applies: + + ifIndex=dsx3IfIndex=dsx3LineIndex for all interfaces. + + The dsx3IfIndex column of the DS3/E3 Configuration table relates each + DS3/E3 interface to its corresponding interface (ifIndex) in the + Internet-standard MIB (MIB-II STD 17, [RFC1213]). + + External&Internal interface scenario: the SNMP Agents resides on an + host external from the device supporting DS3/E3 interfaces (e.g., a + router). The Agent represents both the host and the DS3/E3 device. + The index dsx3LineIndex is used to not only represent the DS3/E3 + interfaces external from the host/DS3/E3-device combination, but also + the DS3/E3 interfaces connecting the host and the DS3/E3 device. The + index dsx3IfIndex is always equal to ifIndex. + + Example: + + A shelf full of CSUs connected to a Router. An SNMP Agent residing + on the router proxies for itself and the CSU.

Appendix B - The delay approach to Unavialable Seconds. + + This procedure is illustrated below for a DS3 C-Bit parity + application.

Security Considerations + + There are a number of management objects defined in this MIB module + with a MAX-ACCESS clause of read-write. 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. The + specific the objects and their sensitivities/vulnerabilities are as + follows. + + Setting the following objects to incorrect values may result in + traffic interruptions: + + dsx3LineType + dsx3LineCoding + dsx3SendCode + dsx3LoopbackConfig + dsx3TransmitClockSource + dsx3LineLength + dsx3Channelization + dsx3Ds1ForRemoteLoop + + In the case of dsx3LineType, for example, both ends of a DS3/E3 must + have the same value in order for traffic to flow. In the case of + dsx3SendCode and dsx3LoopbackConfig, for another example, traffic may + stop transmitting when particular loopbacks are applied. + + Setting the following objects to an incorrect value will result in + the remote end receiving an incorrect Path Identification message, + which may result in a connectivity inconsistency: + + dsx3FarEndEquipCode + dsx3FarEndLocationIDCode + dsx3FarEndFrameIDCode + dsx3FarEndUnitCode + dsx3FarEndFacilityIDCode + + + + + + + + + + +Nicklass Standards Track [Page 60] + +RFC 3896 DS3/E3 MIB September 2004 + + + Setting the following object to an incorrect value will not harm the + traffic, but it may cause a circuit to be mis-identified and thereby + create difficulties for service personnel when attempting to + troubleshoot a problem: + + dsx3CircuitIdentifier + + Setting the following object can cause an increase in the number of + traps received by the network management station: + + dsx3LineStatusChangeTrapEnable + + The readable objects in this MIB module (i.e., the objects with a + MAX-ACCESS other than not-accessible) may be considered sensitive in + some environments since, collectively, they provide extensive + information about the performance of interfaces in DS3/E3 equipment + or networks and can reveal some aspects of their configuration. In + such environments it is important to control even GET and NOTIFY + access to these objects and possibly to encrypt the values of these + objects when sending them over the network via SNMP. + + 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. + + + + + + + + + + + + +Nicklass Standards Track [Page 61] + +RFC 3896 DS3/E3 MIB September 2004 + + +9.
