RFC 3806 Printer Finishing MIB June 2004
1. Introduction
This document describes an SNMP Management Information Base (MIB) to
provide for the management of in-line post-processing in a fashion
that is currently provided for printers, using the Printer MIB
[RFC3805]. The Printer Finishing MIB includes the following
features:
- Provides the status of the finishing device.
- Queries and controls the features and configuration of the
finishing device.
- Enables and disables the finishing processes.
- Allows unsolicited status from the finishing device.
The Finisher MIB is defined as an extension of the Printer MIB
[RFC3805] and it is expected that the information defined in this
document will be incorporated into a future update of the Printer
MIB.
1.1. Scope
This document provides a robust set of finishing devices, features,
and functions, based upon today's state of the art of in-line
finishing. Since finishing typically accompanies higher speed
network printers and copiers, in contrast to simple desktop devices,
no attempt is made to limit the scope to "bare minimum". On the
other hand, the Printer Finishing MIB does not duplicate the
production mail preparation, custom insertion, franking, and reprints
that are covered by the DMTF Large Mailing Operations standard [LMO].
Information supplied by the Printer Finishing MIB may be utilized by
printer and finisher management applications engaged in monitoring
status and managing configuration, and also used by print and
finishing submission applications which are engaged in:
- print-job-level finishing processes that are applied to a complete
print job,
- document-level finishing processes that are applied individually
to each document in the print job,
- document-level finishing processes that are applied to a selected
document in the print job.
Note that not all combinations of finishing processes are permitted.
Compatible combinations of finishing processes are implementation
specific. The MIB allows invalid combinations to be identified.
Bergman, et al. Informational [Page 3]
^L
RFC 3806 Printer Finishing MIB June 2004
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 [RFC2119].
1.2. Rational
The Printer MIB [RFC3805] is now successfully deployed in a large
segment of the network printer market. SNMP and/or HTTP enabled
printers and software management applications are growing in numbers.
There is an increase in the availability of network printers and
copiers that include in-line finishing processes. Thus a well
defined and ordered set of finishing objects is now necessary for
printer management.
The printer model defined in the Printer MIB includes finishing
processes and the MIB was designed to later incorporate finisher
objects or to be referenced by a future Finisher MIB.
1.3. 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].
1.4. Read-Write Objects
Some objects in the Finisher MIB reflect the existence or amount of a
given resource within the finisher. Some examples of such resources
are the size and number of sheets in an inserter tray or the
existence of certain finisher options. Some finishers have automatic
sensors for these resources. Most finishers lack sensors for every
property of every resource. The management application is allowed to
write into objects that hold descriptive or existence values for
finishers that cannot sense these values. The ability to change the
value of a read-write object may depend on the implementation of the
agent. Many objects in the MIB are given read-write access, but an
implementation might only permit a management application to change
Bergman, et al. Informational [Page 4]
^L
RFC 3806 Printer Finishing MIB June 2004
the value if the finisher can not sense the value itself. Note that
even though some objects explicitly state the behavior of conditional
ability to change values, any read-write object may act this way.
Generally, an object is given read-write access in the Finisher MIB
specification if:
1. The object involves installation of a resource that some finishers
cannot themselves detect. Therefore, external means are needed to
inform the device of the installation. (Here external means
include using the operator console, or remote management
application) and
2. The finisher will behave differently if the installation of the
resource is reported than if the installation were not reported;
that is, the object is not to be used as a place to put
information not used by the finisher, i.e., not a "sticky-note".
Another way of saying this is that the finisher believes that
information given it and acts as if the information were true.
3. The finisher may get hints that it may not know about the
existence or properties of certain resources. For example, a
paper tray may be removed and re-inserted. When this removal and
insertion happens, the finisher may either assume that a property,
such as the size of paper in the tray, has not changed or the
finisher may change the value of the associated object to
"unknown", as might be done for the amount of paper in the tray.
As long as the finisher acts according to the value in the object
either strategy is acceptable.
4. It is an implementation-specific matter as to whether or not MIB
object values are persistent across power cycles or cold starts.
2. Terminology
Where appropriate, the Printer Finishing MIB will conform to the
terminology, syntax, and semantics from the DMTF Large Mailing
Operations standard [LMO], the Internet Printing Protocol [RFC2911],
and/or the ISO Document Printing Application [DPA].
2.1. General Terminology
Finisher Input: An input tray on the finisher and not otherwise
associated with the printer. An example of a finisher input is a
tray that holds finishing "inserts".

Finisher Output: The output of the finisher. Because processing is
in-line, the finisher outputs are a direct extension of the set of
printer outputs.
Media Orientation: All Finishing Processes are defined relative to a
portrait orientation of the medium, regardless of the orientation of
the printed image or the direction of feed. The 'X' and 'Y' axis,
therefore, will always reference the medium as shown in figures 1
and 2, with the 'X' axis always along the short edge of the medium.
All edges and corners are also defined with the medium orientation
as shown using the syntax top, bottom, left, and right. Thus the
bottom edge of the medium is at Y = 0, the left edge is at X = 0,
and the bottom right corner is at (X2,0) as shown in the figure 1
and at (X3,0) as shown in figure 2.
Bergman, et al. Informational [Page 7]

RFC 3806 Printer Finishing MIB June 2004
Finishing: Defined by DPA as an operation on a document following
the completion of the image process. Finishing processes defined
within this document are those applied to one or more instances of
rectangular paper sheet media.
Finishing Process: Defined by DPA as an operation applied by a
machine such as trimming a document, folding the sheets in a
document, and applying a binding to a document.
Finishing Specification: Defined by DPA as the specific sequence of
operations for a serial combination of finishing processes. The
exact sequential order of the processes, in many cases, is critical
to the obtaining the desired result. For example, a folding
operation followed by trimming could provide a very different result
than if the trimming was followed by the folding.
Finishing Process Parameters: This parameter set is used to create a
detailed definition of the finishing process. Generic Finishing
Process Parameters are applicable to any Finishing Specification.
- Head Mechanism: Defined by DPA as the physical mechanism that is
used to perform a finishing process. The head position may be
fixed or variable depending upon the capabilities of the device.
- Reference Edge: Defined by DPA as the edge of the document
relative to the axis to which the finishing process is applied.
The edge of the medium defined to be the Reference Edge may be
either the 'X' or the 'Y' axis, depending upon the finishing
process to be performed.
Note that the Reference Edge may change from one finishing process
to another for one of two reasons. First, a subsequent process
may require a different Reference Edge. Second, the actual
dimensions of the document may change, for example as a result of
a folding or a trimming operation.
- Jog Edge: Defined by DPA as one of the two edges that is
perpendicular to the Reference Edge. Specifying the Jog Edge
parameter indicates the edges of all sheets which correspond to
the Jog Edge are aligned.
- Finishing Process Axis: Defined by DPA as the axis which some
finishing processes are applied to or referenced from by the Head
Mechanism. Examples are the axis for a fold process or the axis
for a punch process.
- Head Locations: Defined by DPA as the position of the Heads on
the Finishing Process Axis.
Bergman, et al. Informational [Page 8]
^L
RFC 3806 Printer Finishing MIB June 2004
- Finishing Process Offset: The offset from the Reference Edge to
the Finishing Process Axis at which the finishing process takes
place or is applied.
2.2. Process Specific Terminology
FOLDING:
Z Fold: A fold in which two folds are placed in the sheet in
opposite directions. The first fold is located at 25% of the sheet
length, and the second is located at 50% of the sheet length (i.e.,
the center of the sheet). Z Folding is often used on 11x17 inch or
A3 size sheets, when they are included in sets containing 8.5x11
inch or A4 size sheets.
Half Fold: To fold a sheet in half so that one of the resulting
dimensions are exactly half the original sheet. Often used for
signatures or booklets.
Letter Fold: Folding a sheet roughly in thirds. Usually performed
on 8.5x11 inch or A4 size sheets for insertion into an envelope.
Signature: The process by which images are placed on a large sheet
of paper in correct panel areas and in the proper orientation such
that when the sheet is folded it will produce a booklet with each
page in the proper order and orientation.
BINDING:
Adhesive Binding: A method of attaching sheets together to form a
book or booklet using glue or adhesive. Some adhesive binding
methods apply the glue to sheets individually, before merging them
together for form a book, but most methods involve the application
of adhesive to an entire book of sheets.
Comb Binding: A method of binding in which a series of small
rectangular holes is placed along the bind edge of the sheets. The
sheets are then held together using a tube shaped plastic binding
strip with comb like fingers that fit through the holes in the
sheets.
Spiral Binding: Sometimes referred to as wire binding, this binding
method is a mechanical bind in which the individual leaves are held
together by a wire or plastic spiral that is fed through small
holes in the paper binding edge.
Bergman, et al. Informational [Page 9]
^L
RFC 3806 Printer Finishing MIB June 2004
Padding: Applying a non-penetrating adhesive to the edge of a stack
of sheets such that the sheets can be easily peeled off one at a
time. Frequently used for forms.
Velo Binding: A bind formed by punching holes into the edge of the
sheets, placing a two piece plastic strip (one side formed with
plastic pins that pass through the holes) along the edge and then
staking the two pieces together.
Perfect Binding: A method of binding in which all pages are cut and
roughed up at the back or binding edge and held together by an
adhesive.
Tape Binding: The act of placing tape over the bind edge of a set.
Sometimes contains adhesive to provide a functional bind to the
set, and sometimes done for decorative purposes on a set that has
been edge stapled.
SLITTING/CUTTING/TRIMMING:
Trim: To cut the edges of a sheet or set of sheets.
Face Trim: To cut the edges of a set of sheets on a booklet of
sheets that have been folded to eliminate the "creep" or edge
shingling that results from the folding process.
Gutter Trim: To cut a larger sheet into smaller sheets eliminating
the gutter between adjacent images. This operation requires a
minimum of two cuts for each gutter.
Tab Cutting: The act of cutting the edge of a sheet to form an index
tab, thereby allowing quick identification and access. The
external tabs are sequentially placed along the book edge for
visibility and ease of grasping.
Perforating: The act of cutting a series of very small, closely
spaced holes or slots into a sheet to allow for ease of separation
of a portion of the sheet. Sometimes also used to ease
bending/hinging of heavy weight papers.
Scoring: A means of applying small linear grooves or impressions
along a sheet to allow easy folding. Often used on heavy weight
sheets and book covers.
Slitting: The action of cutting apart a large sheet to form smaller
sheets. Usually done using a sharp circular roll system.

RFC 3806 Printer Finishing MIB June 2004
STITCHING/STAPLING:
Staple: The process of binding a set of sheets together using a 'U'
shaped piece of metal wire that is punched through the set. The
ends of the metal staple are then bent over, or 'clinched' to hold
the staple in place. Technically the term 'stapler' refers to
devices that use pre-cut metal staples, but the term is also
commonly used to refer to devices that use wire spools and then
cut/form the staple. (see the definition of Stitch)
Stitch: The process of binding a set of sheets together using a 'U'
shaped piece of metal wire that is punched through the set. The
wire used to form the staple is cut and formed into a 'U' shape in
the stitcher head, and the staple 'leg' length is often varied
depending on the number of sheets to be bound together. The ends
of the metal staple are bent over, or 'clinched' to hold the staple
in place.
Stitching can also refer to the process of sewing the edges of the
signatures of a book together.
Saddle Stitch: The process of stapling a set along its center line
as part of a booklet making process. Usually 2 or 3 staples are
used.
Dual Stapling: The process of placing 2 staples along the bind edge
of a set. The staples are typically located at 25% and 75% of the
length of the bind edge. Although dual stapling is often performed
on the long edge of a set, legal documents are frequently dual
stapled along the top, or short edge of the set.
Triple Stapling: Same as above, but using 3 staples along the bind
edge, and usually applies to the long edge only.
WRAPPING:
Shrink Wrap: A wrap of thin plastic which when heated will shrink
and wrap tightly around the stack thus preparing it for shipment.
BANDING:
Band Wrap: Bundling a finished stack to prepare for shipment. Also
known as Strap Wrap.
ROTATING:
Sheet Rotator: A device that rotates each sheet as received from the
Media Path to the proper orientation for the finisher processing.

3. Finisher Subunits Integrated Into The Printer Model
The Printer Finisher Device subunits receive media from one or more
Printer Media Path subunits and deliver the media to one or more
Printer Output subunits after the completion of the finishing
processes. The Printer Model, as described in the Printer MIB
[RFC3805], is modified adding the finisher subunit(s) and finisher
supplies between the media path and output subunits as follows:
+----------+
+----------+ |
| Marker | |
| Supplies |-+

4. Finishing Specifications
The Finisher MIB is able to provide most of the information that is
required to generate a Finishing Specification. This includes;
1. Finishing operations that can be performed on media that are
associated with a specific printer media path and output subunit.
2. Combinations of operations that cannot be performed.
3. The location of the operation on the medium, if applicable.
4. The physical characteristics of the result of the operation. For
example, the size and shape of a punched hole, or if a fold
operation creates a letter fold or a "Z" fold.
Bergman, et al. Informational [Page 12]
^L
RFC 3806 Printer Finishing MIB June 2004
The Finisher MIB permits an agent to describe the order that
operations can be performed.
4.1. Multiple finDeviceTable Entries
Each finishing operation supported by the printer is represented by
one or more entries in the finDeviceTable. Each entry in this table
defines a "logical" finishing device, since the function of several
table entries may be performed by a single finisher mechanism.
Multiple entries may also exist in the table as a result of the
existence of multiple finisher mechanisms that perform the same type
of operation.
One example of possible multiple entries for a single finisher
device, is a hole punch operation that creates more than one hole.
This could be performed using a single die punch that moves to each
required position or a multi-die punch that simultaneously creates
all holes. In either case, each defined hole position may be defined
as a separate table entry.
In both cases, if the punch positions can be individually selected, a
table entry for each position would be necessary.
For the multi-die punch, each head mechanism may have a different
hole pattern or size. If these differences are to be properly
disclosed, a table entry for each head mechanism would be required.
4.2. Implicit Parameters
Finishing operations that are specified by an enum define a standard
operation and in many cases an implicit set of physical
characteristics is to be included when specifying the enum. If
explicit values for these characteristics are not provided in the
attributes table, the values defined in this section are to be
implied.

5. The Attribute Mechanism
Attributes provide a function similar to information objects, except
that attributes are identified by an enum, instead of an OID. Thus
new attributes may be registered without requiring a change to the
MIB. In addition, an implementation that does not have the
functionality represented by the attribute can omit the attribute
entirely, rather than having to return a distinguished value. The
agent is free to create an attribute in the Attribute Table as soon
as the agent is aware of the value of the attribute.
The agent materializes finishing subunit attributes in a four-indexed
finDeviceAttributeTable:
1. hrDeviceIndex - which device in the host
2. finDeviceIndex - which finisher subunit in the printer device
3. finDeviceAttributeTypeIndex - which attribute
4. finDeviceAttributeInstanceIndex - which attribute instance for
those attributes that can have multiple values per finishing
subunit.
Bergman, et al. Informational [Page 15]
^L
RFC 3806 Printer Finishing MIB June 2004
5.1. Conformance of Attribute Implementation
An agent SHALL implement any attribute if (1) the device supports the
functionality represented by the attribute and (2) the information is
available to the agent. The agent MAY create the attribute row in
the finDeviceAttributeTable when the information is available or MAY
create the row earlier with the designated 'unknown' value
appropriate for that attribute. See next section.
If the device does not implement or does not provide access to the
information about an attribute, the agent SHOULD NOT create the
corresponding row in the finDeviceAttributeTable.
5.2. Useful, 'Unknown', and 'Other' Values for Objects and Attributes
Some attributes have a 'useful' Integer32 value, some have a 'useful'
OCTET STRING value, some MAY have either or both depending on
implementation, and some MUST have both. See the
finDeviceAttributeTypeTC textual convention for the specification of
each attribute.
NOTE: In some instances, objects with a MAX-ACCESS of read-write will
result in an SNMPv1 error or SNMPv2 exception during a write
operation. The administrative security policy may restrict a class
of users to read-only or, more importantly, the implementation may
implement a subset of read-write objects as read-only. This should
be expected to be the case for a device that can properly sense the
value of an object and does not want the value to be externally
modified.
In general, values for objects and attributes have been chosen so
that a management application will be able to determine whether a
'useful', 'unknown', or 'other' value is available. When a useful
value is not available for an object that agent SHALL return a zero-
length string for octet strings, the value 'unknown(2)' for enums, a
'0' value for an object that represents an index in another table,
and a value '-2' for counting integers.
Since each attribute is represented by a row consisting of both the
finDeviceAttributeValueAsInteger and finDeviceAttributeValueAsOctets
MANDATORY objects, SNMP requires that the agent SHALL always create
an attribute row with both objects specified. However, for most
attributes the agent SHALL return a "useful" value for one of the
objects and SHALL return the 'other' value for the other object. For
integer only attributes, the agent SHALL always return a zero-length
string value for the finDeviceAttributeValueAsOctets object. For
octet string only attributes, the agent SHALL always return a '-1'
value for the finDeviceAttributeValueAsInteger object.
Bergman, et al. Informational [Page 16]
^L
RFC 3806 Printer Finishing MIB June 2004
5.3. Data Sub-types and Attribute Naming Conventions
Many attributes are sub-typed to give a more specific data type than
Integer32 or OCTET STRING. The data sub-type of each attribute is
indicated on the first line(s) of the description. Some attributes
have several different data sub-type representations. When an
attribute has both an Integer32 data sub-type and an OCTET STRING
data sub-type, the attribute can be represented in a single row in
the finDeviceAttributeTable. In this case, the data sub-type name is
not included as the last part of the name of the attribute. When the
data sub-types cannot be represented by a single row in the
finDeviceAttributeTable, each such representation is considered a
separate attribute and is assigned a separate name and enum value.
For these attributes, the name of the data sub-type is the last part
of the name of the attribute.
5.4. Single-Value (Row) Versus Multi-Value (MULTI-ROW) Attributes
Most attributes shall have only one row per finishing subunit.
However, a few attributes can have multiple values per finishing
subunit, where each value is a separate row in the
finDeviceAttributeTable. Unless indicated with 'MULTI-ROW:' in the
finDeviceAttributeTypeTC description, an agent SHALL ensure that each
attribute occurs only once in the finDeviceAttributeTable for a
finishing subunit. Most of the 'MULTI-ROW' attributes do not allow
duplicate values, i.e., the agent SHALL ensure that each value occurs
only once for a finishing subunit. Only if the specification of the
'MULTI-ROW' attribute also says "There is no restriction on the same
xxx occurring in multiple rows" can the agent allow duplicate values
to occur for a single finishing subunit.
5.5. Linked MUTI-ROW Values
Some MULTI-ROW attributes are intended to go together. Thus a set of
value instances represent a single instance. For example, the
puncher attributes indicate the location, maximum size, minimum size
and shape of the various holes that the puncher can produce. So the
first set of values could represent one kind of hole, and the second
set another kind of hole, etc.
5.6. Index Value Attributes
A number of attributes are indexes in other tables. Such attribute
names end with the word 'Index'. If the agent has not (yet) assigned
an index value for a particular index attribute for a finishing
subunit, the agent shall either: (1) return the value 0 or (2) not
add this attribute to the finDeviceAttributeTable until the index
Bergman, et al. Informational [Page 17]
^L
RFC 3806 Printer Finishing MIB June 2004
value is assigned. In the interests of brevity, the semantics for 0
is specified once here and is not repeated for each index attribute
specification and a DEFVAL of 0 is indicated.
5.7. Attribute Specifications
This section specifies the set of attributes that are enumerated in
finAttributeTypeTC. The data type tag definitions 'INTEGER:' or
'OCTETS', indicate if the attribute can be represented using the
object finDeviceAttributeAsInteger or the object
finDeviceAttributeAsOctets, respectively. In some cases, a choice
between the two data types is possible and for a few attributes both
objects may be required at the same time to properly present the
value.
NOTE - The enum assignments are grouped logically with values
assigned in groups of 10, so that additional values may be registered
in the future and assigned a value that is part of their logical
grouping.
Values in the range 2**30 to 2**31-1 are reserved for private or
experimental usage. This range corresponds to the same range
reserved in IPP. Implementers are warned that use of such values may
conflict with other implementations. Implementers are encouraged to
request registration of enum values following the procedures in
Section 6.1.

specification are:

finDeviceAttributeTable instance. If this attribute is
not present, this process can be used with any input tray
in the printer. For example, this attribute can indicate
the current stapling capabilities for a stapler device
for the input trays that depend upon the size and feed
orientation. So if there were two letter trays, one with
A size and the other with B size, a two position stapler

6. Enumerations
Enumerations (enums) are sets of symbolic values defined for use with
one or more objects. Commonly used enumeration sets are assigned a
symbolic data type name (textual convention), rather than being
specified in the SYNTAX clause of each individual object definition.
Textual conventions defined in the Finisher MIB or the companion IANA
Finisher MIB are extensible by RFC publication or Designated Expert
Review (see 'IANA Considerations' section of this Finisher MIB and
the DESCRIPTION clause in MODULE-IDENTITY of IANA Finisher MIB). All
of these textual conventions are:
a) used more than once in the Finisher MIB itself; or
b) imported and used in any other, including vendor private, MIB
modules.
The Finisher MIB has also defined the following special values for
use with objects of the syntax "Integer32" to define conditions that
are outside of the normal numeric range: other(-1), unknown(-2), and
partial(-3). The 'partial' value means that there is some supply
remaining (but the amount is indeterminate) or there is some capacity
remaining (but the amount is indeterminate). The Integer32 range
field indicates in which objects these special values are valid.
6.1. Registering Additional Enumerated Values
The Finisher MIB and the companion IANA Finisher MIB each defines one
category of textual convention, according to the process employed to
control the addition of new enumerations:
Bergman, et al. Informational [Page 23]
^L
RFC 3806 Printer Finishing MIB June 2004
Type 1 - All of the legal values are defined in the Finisher MIB.
Additional enumerated values require the publication of a new
Finisher MIB.
Type 2 - All of the legal values are registered in the IANA
Finisher MIB. Additional enumerated values require a Designated
Expert Review defined in "Guidelines for Writing an IANA
Considerations Section in RFCs" [RFC2434]. The Designated Expert
will be selected by the IETF Area Director(s) of the Applications
Area.

RFC 3806 Printer Finishing MIB June 2004
-- Finisher Device Attribute Group (Mandatory)
--
-- A finisher device subunit may have one or more parameters that
-- cannot be specified by any other objects in the MIB. The
-- Device Attribute group facilitates the definition of these
-- parameters. The objects which define the attributes are
-- read-write, to allow both Set and Get operations.
--
-- At least one table entry must exist for each finisher device defined
-- by the MIB. If no other entry is possible for a finisher device, the
-- deviceName(3) attribute MUST be returned.
finDeviceAttribute OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { printmib 33 }

DESCRIPTION
"The attribute table defines special parameters that are
applicable only to a minority of the finisher devices.
An attribute table entry is used, rather than unique
objects, to minimize the number of MIB objects and to
allow for expansion without the addition of MIB objects.
Each finisher device is represented by a separate row
in the device subunit attribute table."

9. IANA Considerations
The initial version of the IANA Finisher MIB defined in section 7 of
this document is to be archived by IANA and subsequently maintained
according to the Process specified in section 6.1 of this document.
The most current and authoritative version of the IANA Finisher MIB
is available at:
http://www.iana.org/assignments/ianafinisher-mib
10. Internationalization Considerations

12. 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:
finDeviceTable:
finDevicePresentOnOff -Possible severe inconvenience
finDeviceMaxCapacity -Possible minor inconvenience
finDeviceCurrentCapacity -Possible minor inconvenience
finSupplyTable:
finSupplyMaxCapacity -Possible minor inconvenience
Bergman, et al. Informational [Page 49]
^L
RFC 3806 Printer Finishing MIB June 2004
finSupplyCurrentLevel -Possible minor inconvenience
finSupplyMediaInputTable
finSupplyMediaInputMediaDimFeedDir -Possible severe inconvenience
finSupplyMediaInputMediaDimXFeedDir -Possible severe inconvenience
finSupplyMediaInputMediaName -Possible Minor inconvenience
finSupplyMediaInputName -Possible Minor inconvenience
finSupplyMediaInputSecurity -Possible Minor inconvenience
finSupplyMediaInputMediaWeight -Possible Minor inconvenience
finSupplyMediaInputMediaThickness -Possible Minor inconvenience
finSupplyMediaInputMediaType -Possible Minor inconvenience
finDeviceAttributeTable
finDeviceAttributeValueAsInteger -Possible Minor inconvenience
finDeviceAttributeValueAsOctets -Possible Minor inconvenience
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.
Where the operational capability of the printing device are
especially vulnerable or difficult to administer, certain objects
within this MIB have been tagged as READ-ONLY, preventing
modification. Further, for all READ-WRITE objects within the MIB, the
working group has included specific conformance guidelines stating
that vendors are free to implement certain objects as READ-ONLY. This
conformance allowance should cover cases where specific vendor
vulnerabilities may differ from product to product. (See conformance
section with regards to MIN-ACCESS clauses).
