       Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM) Bootstrap Router MIB

Status of This Memo

   This document specifies an Internet standards track protocol for the
   Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for
   improvements.  Please refer to the current edition of the "Internet
   Official Protocol Standards" (STD 1) for the standardization state
   and status of this protocol.  Distribution of this memo is unlimited.

Abstract

   This document 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 used for
   managing the Bootstrap Router (BSR) mechanism for PIM (Protocol
   Independent Multicast).

RFC 5240                      PIM BSR MIB                      June 2008


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 used for managing the
   Bootstrap Router (BSR) mechanism for PIM [RFC4601], [RFC5059].

   This document was created by moving some of the PIM BSR-specific MIB
   tables from one of the earlier versions of PIM MIB [RFC5060].

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 [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].

3.  Conventions

   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].

4.  Overview

   This MIB module contains four tables.  The tables are:

   1.  The Candidate-RP Table, which contains one row for each multicast
       group address prefix for which the local router is configured to
       advertise itself as a Candidate-RP (C-RP).  This table exists on
       routers that are configured as Candidate-RP.

   2.  The Elected BSR RP-Set Table, which contains one row for each
       Group-to-RP mapping that was received in C-RP advertisements.
       This table exists on a router that is an elected BSR (E-BSR).

   3.  The Candidate-BSR Table, which contains one row for each
       Candidate-BSR configuration for the local router.  This table
       exists on routers that are configured as Candidate-BSR.

   4.  The Elected-BSR Table, which contains one row for each elected
       BSR.  This table exists on a router that is an elected BSR.

   This MIB module uses textual conventions defined in the INET-ADDRESS-
   MIB [RFC4001].

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




Joshi & Bijlani             Standards Track                    [Page 17]

   environment without proper protection can have a negative effect on
   network operations.  These are the tables and objects and their
   sensitivity/vulnerability:

   o  A new Candidate-BSR with high priority or modification of priority
      ( bsrCandidateBSRPriority ) of an existing Candidate-BSR can take
      over the functionality of an Elected BSR, which can prevent and
      disrupt the services.

   o  A new Candidate-RP with lower priority or modification of priority
      ( bsrCandidateRPPriority ) of an existing Candidate-RP can force
      other routers to select itself for a particular group prefix.
      This can prevent and disrupt the services provided through this
      group prefix.

   The following are the read-write and read-create objects defined in
   this MIB module:

   bsrCandidateRPBidir
   bsrCandidateRPPriority
   bsrCandidateRPAdvInterval
   bsrCandidateRPHoldtime
   bsrCandidateBSRAddressType
   bsrCandidateBSRAddress
   bsrCandidateBSRPriority
   bsrCandidateBSRHashMaskLength

   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:

   pimBsrCandidateRPAdvTimer
   pimBsrElectedBSRRPSetPriority
   pimBsrElectedBSRRPSetHoldtime
   pimBsrElectedBSRRPSetExpiryTime

RFC 5240                      PIM BSR MIB                      June 2008


   In this MIB module, possible effects that can be induced by GET
   operations include:

   o  Determination of Elected BSR, Candidate-BSRs, and Candidate-RPs in
      the Multicast Network topology.  This information may be sensitive
      and may be used in preparation for Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks
      including any of the attacks described above.

   SNMP versions prior to SNMPv3 did not include adequate security.
   Even if the network itself is secure (for example by using IPsec),
   there is still no control over whom on the secure network is allowed
   to access (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 access (read/change/create/delete) them.

7.  IANA Considerations

   The MIB module in this document uses the following IANA-assigned
   OBJECT IDENTIFIER values recorded in the SMI Numbers registry:

   Descriptor        OBJECT IDENTIFIER value
   ----------        -----------------------
   pimBsrMIB         { mib-2 172 }

8.  Acknowledgments

   This MIB module is based on the original work in [RFC5060] by R.
   Sivaramu, J. Lingard, and B. Joshi.

   Many thanks to Bill Fenner, Stig Venaas, Nidhi Bhaskar, David
   Mcwalter, David Harrington, and J. W. Atwood for their feedback on
   this MIB module.

   Suggested IPv6 multicast MIBs by R. Sivaramu and R. Raghunarayan have
   been used for comparison while editing this MIB module.
