INTERNET DRAFT        BFD Extensions for MPLS MIB      December 26, 2012

1  Introduction

   Current MIB for BFD as defined by BFD-STD-MIB is used for neighbor
   monitoring in IP networks. The BFD session association to the
   neighbors being monitored is done using the source and destination IP
   addresses of the neighbors configured using the respective MIB
   objects.

   To monitor MPLS/MPLS-TP paths like tunnels or Pseudowires, there is a
   necessity to identify or associate the BFD session to those paths.

   This memo defines an portion of the Management Information Base (MIB)
   for use with network management protocols in the Internet community.
   In particular, it extends the BFD Management Information Base BFD-
   STD-MIB and describes the managed objects to configure and/or monitor
   Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) protocol for MPLS [BFD-MPLS]
   and MPLS-TP networks [RFC6428].

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
   RFC3410 [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,
   RFC2578, STD 58, RFC2579 and STD58, RFC2580.

   "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
   document are to be interpreted as described in RFC-2119 [RFC2119].

3.2 Terminology

   This document adopts the definitions, acronyms and mechanisms

5. Brief description of MIB Objects

   The objects described in this section support the functionality
   described in documents [BFD-MPLS] and [RFC6428].  The objects are
   defined as an extension to the BFD base MIB defined by BFD-STD-MIB.

5.1. Extensions to the BFD session table (bfdSessionTable)

   The BFD session table used to identify a BFD session between a pair
   of nodes, as defined in BFD-STD-MIB, is extended with managed objects
   to achieve the required functionality in MPLS and MPLS-TP networks as
   described below:

      1. SessionRole - Active/Passive role specification for the BFD
         session configured on the node. Either end of a BFD session
         can be configured as Active/Passive to determine which
         end starts transmitting the BFD control packets.

      2. SessionMode - Defines the mode in which BFD
         session is running, defined as below:
            i.  CC - Only Continuity Check and RDI functionality is
                     performed.

            ii. CV - Provides for Continuity Check, Connectivity
                     Verification and RDI functionalities to be
                     supported.

      3. Timer Negotiation Flag - Provides for timer negotiation
         to be enabled or disabled. This object can be used to tune
         the detection of period-misconfiguration.

      4. Map Type - Indicates the type of the path being monitored by
         the BFD session.

INTERNET DRAFT        BFD Extensions for MPLS MIB      December 26, 2012

      This object can take the following values:

      For BFD session over MPLS based paths:

      nonTeIpv4 (1) - BFD session configured for Non-TE
                      Ipv4 path
      nonTeIpv6 (2) - BFD session configured for Non-TE
                      Ipv6 path
      teIpv4 (3) - BFD session configured for a TE
                   Ipv4 path
      teIpv6 (4) - BFD session configured for a TE
                   Ipv6 path
      pw (5) - BFD session configured for a PW

      For MPLS-TP based paths:

      mep (6) - BFD session configured for an MPLS-TP path
      (Bidirectional tunnel, PW or Sections) will map to
      the corresponding maintenance entity.

      5. Map Pointer

      A Row Pointer object which can be used to point to the first
      accessible object in the respective instance of the table entry
      identifying the path being monitored (mplsXCEntry/mplsTunnelEntry/
      pwEntry respectively for LSP/Tunnel/PW).

      For NON-TE LSP, the Map pointer points to the corresponding
      mplsXCEntry.

      For TE based tunnel, the Map pointer points to the corresponding
      instance of the mplsTunnelEntry.

      For PW, this object points to the corresponding instance of
      pwEntry.

      For MPLS-TP paths, this object points to the corresponding
      instance of mplsOamIdMeEntry configured to monitor the
      MPLS-TP path associated with the BFD session.

      6. Usage of existing object bfdSessType:

      Additionally existing object "bfdSessType" in the base MIB can be
      used with the already defined value multiHopOutOfBandSignaling(3)
      to specify an OOB (Out of band) mechanism [E.g. LSP Ping] for
      bootstrapping the BFD session.

5.2. Example of BFD session configuration

   This section provides an example of BFD session configuration
   for an MPLS and MPLS-TP TE tunnel. This example is only meant
   to enable an understanding of the proposed extension and does not
   illustrate every permutation of the MIB.

5.2.1 Example of BFD Session configuration for MPLS TE tunnel

   This section provides an example BFD session configuration
   for an MPLS TE tunnel. This example is only meant to enable
   an understanding of the proposed extension and does not
   illustrate every permutation of the MIB.

   The following denotes the configured tunnel "head" entry:

      In mplsTunnelTable:
      {
       mplsTunnelIndex              = 100,
       mplsTunnelInstance           = 1,
       mplsTunnelIngressLSRId       = 192.0.2.1,
       mplsTunnelEgressLSRId        = 192.0.2.3,
       mplsTunnelName               = "Tunnel",
       ...
       mplsTunnelSignallingProto    = none (1),
       mplsTunnelSetupPrio          = 0,
       mplsTunnelHoldingPrio        = 0,
       mplsTunnelSessionAttributes  = 0,
       mplsTunnelLocalProtectInUse  = false (0),
       mplsTunnelResourcePointer    = mplsTunnelResourceMaxRate.5,
       mplsTunnelInstancePriority   = 1,
       mplsTunnelHopTableIndex      = 1,
       mplsTunnelIncludeAnyAffinity = 0,
       mplsTunnelIncludeAllAffinity = 0,
       mplsTunnelExcludeAnyAffinity = 0,
       mplsTunnelPathInUse          = 1,
       mplsTunnelRole               = head (1),
       ...
       mplsTunnelRowStatus          = Active
       }

       BFD session parameters used to monitor this tunnel should be
       configured on head-end as follows:

       In bfdSessTable:
       BfdSessEntry ::= SEQUENCE {
        -- BFD session index

        bfdSessIndex                  = 2,
        bfdSessVersionNumber          = 1,
        -- LSP Ping used for OOB bootstrapping
        bfdSessType  = multiHopOutOfBandSignaling,
        ...
        bfdSessAdminStatus            = start,
        ...
        bfdSessDemandModeDesiredFlag  = false,
        bfdSessControlPlaneIndepFlag  = false,
        bfdSessMultipointFlag         = false,
        bfdSessDesiredMinTxInterval   = 100000,
        bfdSessReqMinRxInterval       = 100000,
        ...
        -- Indicates that the BFD session is to monitor
        -- an MPLS TE tunnel
        bfdMplsSessMapType         = teIpv4(3),

        -- OID of the first accessible object (mplsTunnelName) of
        -- the mplsTunnelEntry identifying the MPLS TE tunnel (being
        -- monitored using BFD) in the MPLS  tunnel table.
        -- A value of zeroDotzero indicates that no association
        -- has been made as yet between the BFD session and the path
        -- being monitored.
        -- In the above OID example:
        -- 100 -> Tunnel Index
        -- 1 -> Tunnel instance
        -- 3221225985 -> Ingress LSR Id 192.0.2.1
        -- 3221225987 -> Egress LSR Id 192.0.2.3
        bfdMplsSessMapPointer
                  = mplsTunnelName.100.1.3221225985.3221225987,
        bfdSessRowStatus      = createAndGo
        }

        Similarly BFD session would be configured on the tail-end of
        the tunnel. Creating the above row will trigger
        the bootstrapping of the session using LSP Ping and its
        subsequent establishment over the path by de-multiplexing of
        the control packets using the BFD session discriminators.

5.2.2 Example of BFD Session configuration for Maintenance Entity of
      MPLS-TP TE tunnel

   This example considers the OAM identifiers configuration on a
   head-end LSR to manage and monitor a co-routed bidirectional MPLS
   tunnel.
   Only relevant objects which are applicable for IP based OAM
   identifiers of co-routed MPLS tunnel are illustrated here.

      In mplsOamIdMegTable:

      {
       -- MEG index (Index to the table)
         mplsOamIdMegIndex                 = 1,
         mplsOamIdMegName                  = "MEG1",
         mplsOamIdMegOperatorType          = ipCompatible (1),
         mplsOamIdMegServiceType           = lsp (1),
         mplsOamIdMegMpLocation            = perNode(1),
       -- Mandatory parameters needed to activate the row go here
         mplsOamIdMegRowStatus             = createAndGo (4)
      }

      This will create an entry in the mplsOamIdMegTable to manage and
      monitor the MPLS tunnel.

      The following ME table is used to associate the path information
      to a MEG.

      In mplsOamIdMeTable:
      {
         -- ME index (Index to the table)
          mplsOamIdMeIndex                  = 1,
         -- MP index (Index to the table)
          mplsOamIdMeMpIndex                = 1,
          mplsOamIdMeName                   = "ME1",
          mplsOamIdMeMpIfIndex              = 0,
          -- Source MEP id is derived from the IP compatible MPLS tunnel
          mplsOamIdMeSourceMepIndex         = 0,
          -- Source MEP id is derived from the IP compatible MPLS tunnel
          mplsOamIdMeSinkMepIndex           = 0,
          mplsOamIdMeMpType                 = mep (1),
          mplsOamIdMeMepDirection           = down (2),
          mplsOamIdMeProactiveOamPhbTCValue = 0,
          mplsOamIdMeOnDemandOamPhbTCValue  = 0,
         --  RowPointer MUST point to the first accessible column of an
         --  MPLS tunnel
          mplsOamIdMeServicePointer         = mplsTunnelName.1.1.1.2,
         -- Mandatory parameters needed to activate the row go here
          mplsOamIdMeRowStatus              = createAndGo (4)
      }

      BFD session parameters used to monitor this tunnel should be
      configured on head-end as follows:

      In bfdSessTable:
      BfdSessEntry ::= SEQUENCE {
        -- BFD session index

        bfdSessIndex                  = 2,
        bfdSessVersionNumber          = 1,

        -- LSP Ping used for OOB bootstrapping
        bfdSessType  = multiHopOutOfBandSignaling,
        ...
        bfdSessAdminStatus            = start,

        bfdSessDemandModeDesiredFlag  = false,
        bfdSessControlPlaneIndepFlag  = false,

        ...
        -- Indicates that the BFD session is to monitor
        -- a ME of an MPLS-TP TE tunnel
        bfdMplsSessMapType         = mep(6),

        bfdMplsSessMapPointer
                    = mplsOamIdMeName.1.1.1,
        bfdSessRowStatus      = createAndGo
      }

     Similarly BFD session would be configured on the tail-end of
     the tunnel. Creating the above row will trigger the bootstrapping
     of the session using LSP Ping and its subsequent establishment
     over the path by de-multiplexing of the control packets using
     the BFD session discriminators.

5.3. BFD objects for session performance counters

     BFD-STD-MIB defines BFD Session Performance Table
     (bfdSessionPerfTable), for collecting per-session BFD performance
     counters, as an extension to the bfdSessionTable.

     The bfdSessionPerfTable is extended with the performance counters
     to collect Mis-connectivity Defect, Loss of Continuity Defect
