+RFC 3970 A Traffic Engineering (TE) MIB January 2005
+
+
+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 Traffic Engineered
+ (TE) Tunnels; for example, Multi-Protocol Label Switched Paths ([7],
+ [8]). The MIB module defined by this memo allows one to configure TE
+ Tunnels, to assign one or more paths to a Tunnel, and to monitor
+ operational aspects of the Tunnel, such as the number of octets and
+ packets that have passed through the Tunnel.
+
+ As it stands, this MIB module can only be used to configure or
+ monitor a TE Tunnel at its ingress. The ingress is then expected to
+ use some protocol (such as RSVP-TE) to signal the other routers in
+ the path the information they need to set up the tunnel. The
+ extension of this module for use at other points of a Tunnel is for
+ further study.
+
+1.1. Specification of Requirements
+
+ 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 [1].
+
+2. 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 [8].
+
+ 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 [2], STD 58, RFC 2579 [3] and STD 58, RFC 2580 [4].
+
+3. Overview of the MIB Module
+
+ The Traffic Engineering MIB module consists of four parts:
+
+ 1) Traffic Engineering information,
+ 2) a table of Traffic Engineering Tunnels,
+ 3) a table of Paths that tunnels take, and
+ 4) a table of Hops that make up a tunnel path.
+
+ The MIB module also has statements for minimal and full compliance.
+
+
+
+Kompella Standards Track [Page 2]
+
+RFC 3970 A Traffic Engineering (TE) MIB January 2005
+
+
+ The following subsections give an overview of each part. All objects
+ are mandatory. For minimal compliance, all objects MAY be
+ implemented read-only; for full compliance, all objects must be
+ implemented to their stated MAX-ACCESS capabilities. Notifications
+ are optional.
+
+3.1. Traffic Engineering Information
+
+ This part contains information about the Link State Protocols used to
+ carry TE information, the signaling protocols used to set up Traffic
+ Tunnels, the number of Traffic Tunnels that have been configured and
+ that are operational, and a mapping of Administrative Group (called
+ Resource Classes in [7]) numbers to names.
+
+3.2. Traffic Tunnel Information
+
+ This part contains a table of Traffic Tunnels and information about
+ each one. This information includes the Tunnel name, its
+ configuration information, its operational information, and the
+ active path(s) that the Tunnel takes.
+
+ Configuration information includes the end points of the Traffic
+ Tunnel, and the number of configured paths for the Traffic Tunnel.
+
+ Operational information includes the current state (up/down), the
+ count of octets and packets sent on the Traffic Tunnel, how long it
+ has been up, and how many state transitions the Traffic Tunnel has
+ had.
+
+ Operational path information includes the number of operational
+ paths, the number of path changes, and when the last path change was.
+
+3.3. Path Information
+
+ A Tunnel is a logical entity. An instantiation of a Tunnel is one or
+ more Paths; each Path has a route (also called Explicit Route) or
+ sequence of hops. A Path is indexed by a dual index: The primary
+ index is that of the Tunnel to which the Path belongs; the secondary
+ index is that of the Path itself.
+
+ The configured information for a Path consists of the constraints for
+ the Path and a configured route.
+
+ The operational information consists of the Path status, the computed
+ route (i.e., the route that was computed to satisfy the constraints),
+ and the actual path as recorded by the signaling protocol.
+
+
+
+
+
+Kompella Standards Track [Page 3]
+
+RFC 3970 A Traffic Engineering (TE) MIB January 2005
+
+
+3.4. Hop Information
+
+ A path consists of a sequence of hops. A hop can be loose (meaning
+ that the path eventually traverses the specified node) or strict
+ (meaning that the specified node and possibly the link must be the
+ next node in the path). A hop can be specified as an IPv4 address,
+ an IPv6 address, an Autonomous System number or an unnumbered
+ interface index [5].
+
+ The Hop Table contains all hops for all paths on a given router. It
+ is organized as follows. There is a primary index that identifies a
+ list of hops and a secondary index that identifies individual hops.
+ Thus, to get the sequence of recorded hops for a path, one looks up
+ the path's tePathRecordedRoute, which is a primary index into the Hop
+ Table. Then to get the list of actual hops in order for the recorded
+ path, one uses a secondary index of 1, 2, ....
+
+3.5. Relationship with Other MIB Modules
+
+ A TE Tunnel can extend objects from two other MIB modules; one is the
+ Interfaces MIB [10], and the other is the IP Tunnel MIB [11]. The
+ mechanism for doing so is to assign the TE Tunnel index
+ (teTunnelIndex) with a valid ifIndex value in ifTable.
+
+ If a TE Tunnel is deemed an interface, a new interface object is
+ created and assigned an ifIndex value in ifTable. Then a TE Tunnel
+ object is created, setting teTunnelIndex to the same value as the
+ interface index.
+
+ If (and only if) a TE Tunnel is considered an interface, it may also
+ be considered an IP tunnel (if the encapsulation of the TE Tunnel is
+ IP). In that case, the interface associated with the TE Tunnel
+ should have its ifType set to tunnel(131).
+
+ If a TE Tunnel is not considered an interface, then the TE Tunnel
+ index (teTunnelIndex) SHOULD be set to a value at least 2^24, so that
+ it is distinct from normal interfaces.
+
+4. Creating, Modifying, and Deleting a TE Tunnel
+
+ To create a TE Tunnel, one first obtains a free Tunnel index by using
+ the object teNextTunnelIndex. One then creates the Tunnel, including
+ all parameters, either as createAndGo or createAndWait. Then, TE
+ Paths for this Tunnel can be created by using the
+ teTunnelNextPathIndex object, again as createAndGo or createAndWait.
+ A particular Path is computed and signaled when both the Path and the
+ enclosing Tunnel have RowStatus 'active'.
+
+
+
+
+Kompella Standards Track [Page 4]
+
+RFC 3970 A Traffic Engineering (TE) MIB January 2005
+
+
+ To build a Path's configured route, one first gets a free PathHop
+ index by using teNextPathHopIndex, and then builds the route hop-by-
+ hop using the secondary index, setting the AddrType, Address, and
+ HopType for each Hop. Finally, one sets the tePathConfiguredRoute in
+ the Path to the PathHop index obtained.
+
+ Modifying certain properties of a TE Tunnel or a TE Path may require
+ setting the RowStatus of the Tunnel (or Path) to 'notInService'
+ before making the changes and then setting the RowStatus of the
+ Tunnel (or Path) back to 'active' to re-signal all Paths of the
+ Tunnel (or the modified Path).
+
+ A TE Tunnel and all its Paths can be deleted by setting the Tunnel's
+ RowStatus to 'destroy'. A specific Path within a Tunnel can be
+ destroyed by setting that Path's RowStatus to 'destroy'.
+
+5. MIB Specification
+
+ This MIB module IMPORTs objects from RFCs 2578 [2], 2579 [3], 2580
+ [3], 3411 [6], and 3811 [5] and it also has REFERENCE clauses to RFCs
+ 3209 [8] and 3212 [12].

+7. Security Considerations
+
+ This MIB module relates to the configuration and management of
+ Traffic Engineering tunnels. The unauthorized manipulation of fields
+ in the tables teAdminGroupTable, teTunnelTable, tePathTable, and
+ tePathHopTable may lead to tunnel flapping, tunnel paths being
+ changed, or traffic being disrupted. In addition, if these tables
+ are read by unauthorized parties, the information can be used to
+ trace traffic patterns, traffic volumes, and tunnel paths. This may
+ be considered proprietary and confidential information by some
+ providers.
+
+ 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:
+
+ teAdminGroupTable: Changing this will affect the semantics of include
+ and exclude constraints, and thus traffic takes unintended routes.
+
+ teTunnelTable: Changing this affects many properties of traffic
+ tunnels.
+
+ tePathTable: Changing this affects the constraints (including
+ bandwidth) of tunnel paths, as well as the status of the path.
+
+ tePathHopTable: Changing this affects the route followed by a traffic
+ tunnel path.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+Kompella Standards Track [Page 41]
+
+RFC 3970 A Traffic Engineering (TE) MIB January 2005
+
+
+ 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:
+
+ teTunnelTable: Describes tunnel endpoints and traffic volumes.
+ tePathTable: Describes path properties.
+ tePathHopTable: Describes path routes.
+
+ 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 [9], 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.
+
+Acknowledgments
+
+ It was Tony Li's suggestion that the author embark on this MIB. Many
+ thanks to him and to Der-Hwa Gan for their input and help.
+
+ Many thanks, too, to Bert Wijnen for his incredible help, both with
+ improving the correctness, structure, and readability of the MIB
+ module, and with the text of the RFC. Thanks also to Adrian Farrel
+ for his detailed review.
