Internet-Draft ANCP MIB January 2013
1. Introduction
This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB)
for use with network management protocols. In particular it defines
objects for managing access nodes as described in [RFC5851] that are
using the Access Node Control Protocol defined in [RFC6320].
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 MIB
modules 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 [RFC2119].
4. Overview
In [RFC5851], the framework for the Access Node Control Protocol
(ANCP) is described. It defines 2 network entities, the Access Node
(AN) and the Network Access Server (NAS), between which ANCP sessions
are established. The detailed protocol specification of ANCP is
described in [RFC6320]. This document specifies a MIB module for an
AN that supports ANCP, and a MIB module that defines textual
conventions.
5. Structure of the MIB Module
5.1. Textual Conventions
New textual conventions, AncpSessionCapabilities, AncpVersion,
AncpName, and AncpPartitionId are defined in a seperate MIB module in
De Cnodder & Morgenstern Expires August 1, 2013 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft ANCP MIB January 2013
this document. These textual conventions are used for the
convenience of humans reading the MIB.
5.2. The ANCP MIB module Subtree
ANCP-TC-MIB is the first MIB module defined in this document, and it
is put under mib-2. Also the second MIB module defined in this
document, ANCP-AN-MIB is put under mib-2.
5.3. The Notifications Subtree
Notifications are defined to inform the management station about
state changes of ANCP sessions, whenever an ANCP session changes
state. Two notifications are defined for this purpose. The
notification ancpAnSessionUp is to inform the management station when
the session comes up, and the notification ancpAnSessionDown is to
inform when the ANCP session is down again after it was up before.
Attributes are introduced to enable and disable the generation of
these notifications per ANCP session. No other special measures for
congestion avoidance for the notifications are needed because the
number of ANCP sessions in an access node is typically small. In
addition, establishing an ANCP session and tearing down it again,
takes some time such that for a particular ANCP session, not many
notifications in a short time period can be generated.
5.4. The Table Structures
The ANCP MIB module for the AN has 3 tables. The tables are the
following:
o ancpAnSessionConfigTable
This table is used to configure ANCP sessions at the AN towards a
specific NAS. The NAS is identified by a number of attributes in
this table (ancpAnSessionConfigNasIpAddressType and
ancpAnSessionConfigNasIpAddress). The other attributes in this
table can be used to configure properties that are specific for
that particular ANCP session. Also the interface to which the
ANCP session is bound, is also configured in this table. This
interface can be an IP interface, an ATM PVC, a VLAN (or VLAN
stack), or any other interface defined in IF-MIB.
o ancpAnCurrentSessionTable
This table shows the operational state of a particular ANCP
session. Each session configured in ancpAnSessionConfigTable has
De Cnodder & Morgenstern Expires August 1, 2013 [Page 4]
Internet-Draft ANCP MIB January 2013
a corresponding row in ancpAnCurrentSessionTable. When a session
is configured or deleted in the ancpAnSessionConfigTable, then the
corresponding row of that session in the ancpAnCurrentSessionTable
is, respectively, automatically created or deleted.
o ancpAnInterfaceConfigTable
This table is used to assign interfaces to particular partitions
if partitions are being used as indicated by the scalar
ancpAnPartitionsUsed. When partitions are used, a row in this
table is created automatically when an interface is created in the
ifTable of the IF- MIB [RFC2863] for which the system supports
ANCP.
Four groups are defined:
o ancpAnConfigGroup
This group contains all objects of the ancpAnSessionConfigTable in
which the ANCP sessions are configured in the access node.
o ancpAnCurrentGroup
This group contains all objects of the ancpAnCurrentSessionTable
where the operational state and other information of the ANCP
sessions are shown.
o ancpAnInterfaceGroup
This group contains all objects to configure interfaces to be used
by ANCP. Assigning interfaces to particular partitions is part of
this group in case partitions are used.
o ancpAnNotificationsGroup
This group contains the notifications that indicate state changes
of ANCP sessions.
6. Relationship to Other MIB Modules
De Cnodder & Morgenstern Expires August 1, 2013 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft ANCP MIB January 2013
6.1. Relationship to the Interfaces Group MIB module
There is a dependency between the ANCP MIB module and the Interfaces
Group MIB (IF-MIB) defined in [RFC2863]. The ifIndex defined in the
ifTable of IF-MIB is used as the index of the
ancpAnInterfaceConfigTable defined in the ANCP MIB module for access
nodes. Each time that an entry is created in the ifTable for which
the system supports ANCP (e.g., in a DSLAM this is typically for each
DSL line), a row is created automatically in the
ancpAnInterfaceConfigTable if partitions are being used.
6.2. MIB modules required for IMPORTS
The ANCP TC MIB module requires following MIB modules for IMPORTS:
o SNMPv2-SMI defined in [RFC2578]
o SNMPv2-TC defined in [RFC2579]
The ANCP MIB module for access nodes requires following MIB modules
for IMPORTS:
o SNMPv2-SMI defined in [RFC2578]
o RMON2-MIB defined in [RFC4502]
o IF-MIB defined in [RFC2863]
o INET-ADDRESS-MIB defined in [RFC4001]
o SNMPv2-CONF defined in [RFC2580]
o SNMPv2-TC defined in [RFC2579]
o Q-BRIDGE-MIB defined in [RFC4363]
o ANCP-TC-MIB defined in this document

"This object allows the manager to specify whether or not

use partitions and the ancpAnSessionConfigPartitionId
object MUST be zero for all sessions. In addition, rows
SHOULD NOT be created in the ancpAnInterfaceConfigTable.
When set to 'true' the application uses partitions and
the ancpAnSessionConfigPartitionId object MUST be set,
for every session, to a nonzero value. In such a case,
rows are created in ancpAnInterfaceConfigTable. The
default value zero in ancpAnInterfaceConfigPartitionId
object means that the operator did not associate the
interface with a particular partition. Note that
modifying the value of this object is restricted.
E.g., prior to setting it from 'true' to 'false'
ancpAnSessionConfigRowStatus objects for all sessions
should be set to notInService and the partition ID value
MUST be set to zero.

An available value V becomes unavailable when a row is
actually created with ancpAnSessionConfigSessionId=V and
until then consecutive GET commands with this object may
return the same value V. Note that eventually only one row
creation with the value V can succeed.

8. 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:
o ancpAnPartitionsUsed
De Cnodder & Morgenstern Expires August 1, 2013 [Page 31]
Internet-Draft ANCP MIB January 2013
This scalar object supports SET operations. Unauthorized changes
to this object could result in a wrong interpretation of
ancpAnSessionConfigPartitionId attribute of all sessions, as if
all sessions use partition id zero, or to actually disabling the
use of partitions in the system.
o ancpAnSessionConfigTable
The table consists of the following objects that support SET
operations:
* ancpAnSessionConfigRowStatus
* ancpAnSessionConfigAncpVersion
* ancpAnSessionConfigEncapsulationType
* ancpAnSessionConfigCapabilities
* ancpAnSessionConfigAliveTimer
* ancpAnSessionConfigPortReportShaper
* ancpAnSessionConfigAggregateReportShaper
* ancpAnSessionConfigTransportRetryTimer
* ancpAnSessionConfigAncpRetryTimer
* ancpAnSessionConfigAnName
* ancpAnSessionConfigPartitionId
* ancpAnSessionConfigWindowSize
* ancpAnSessionConfigRelatedInterface
* ancpAnSessionConfigRelatedEntity
* ancpAnSessionConfigSvid
* ancpAnSessionConfigSPrio
* ancpAnSessionConfigCvid
De Cnodder & Morgenstern Expires August 1, 2013 [Page 32]
Internet-Draft ANCP MIB January 2013
* ancpAnSessionConfigCPrio
* ancpAnSessionConfigNasIpAddressType
* ancpAnSessionConfigNasIpAddress
* ancpAnSessionConfigEncapPortNumber
* ancpAnSessionConfigNotifyDnEnable
* ancpAnSessionConfigNotifyUpEnable
Unauthorized changes to ancpAnSessionConfigRowStatus could result
in session being created or brought into service prematurely; or
could result in session being inadvertently deleted or taken out
of service.
Unauthorized changes to ancpAnSessionConfigAncpVersion could have
an adverse operational effect by limiting the ANCP version to be
used in the context of this session or enabling an ANCP version
number that is actually unsupported by the access node.
Unauthorized changes to ancpAnSessionConfigEncapsulationType could
have an adverse operational effect by configuring the session to
use an undesired or even unsupported protocol.
Unauthorized changes to ancpAnSessionConfigCapabilities could have
an adverse operational effect by disabling certain ANCP
capabilities that the operator assumed that are enabled, or enable
a capability that the operator would not like to activate.
Unauthorized changes to ancpAnSessionConfigAliveTimer could have
an adverse operational effect by increasing the frequency of
adjacency protocol messages generated by the access node and
leading to an overload of such messages. Decreasing the frequency
of such messages may harm the synchronization between the access
node and the NAS.
Unauthorized changes to ancpAnSessionConfigPortReportShaper or
ancpAnSessionConfigAggregateReportShaper could have an adverse
operational effect by increasing the frequency of Event Report
messages generated by the access node and leading to an overload
of such messages. Decreasing the frequency of such messages may
delay the responsiveness of the system to events associated with

Unauthorized changes to ancpAnSessionConfigTransportRetryTimer

could have an adverse operational effect by increasing the
frequency of transport connection setup attempts initiated by the
access node or even unexpectedly enabling the access node to
initiate the transport connection setup when that supposed to be
disabled. Alternatively, when the operator basically planned
transport connection setup attempts by the access node
unauthorized changes to the attribute may cause unexpected low
frequency of such attempts or unexpectedly disable those attempts.

have an adverse operational effect by increasing the frequency of
ANCP connection setup attempts initiated by the access node or
even unexpectedly enabling the access node to initiate the ANCP
connection setup when that supposed to be disabled.
Alternatively, when the operator basically planned ANCP connection
setup attempts by the access node unauthorized changes to the
attribute may cause unexpected low frequency of such attempts or
unexpectedly disable those attempts.
Unauthorized changes to ancpAnSessionConfigAnName could confuse
the NAS, e.g., by detecting the same name from multiple access
nodes. This may also override the operator's will to allow/avoid
the access node to autonomously determine its name.
Unauthorized changes to ancpAnSessionConfigPartitionId could mean
that partitions are used when actually they are not, or vice
versa. It could also al least specify a different partition ID
than the one actually associated with the session.
Unauthorized changes to ancpAnSessionConfigWindowSize are not
directly harmful. However, if the controller adopts the suggested
wrong window size it may either cause the controller to send too
many messages in a window or unnecessarily limit itself and that
could reduce the system performance.
Unauthorized changes to ancpAnSessionConfigRelatedInterface and/or
ancpAnSessionConfigRelatedEntity and/or ancpAnSessionConfigSvid
and/or ancpAnSessionConfigCvid can result in the ANCP packets to
be sent out on the wrong interface. This means that the ANCP
packets to establish a session can be received by someone who is
not the intended receiver.
Unauthorized changes to ancpAnSessionConfigSPrio and/or
ancpAnSessionConfigCPrio may give the ANCP packets a lower or a
higher priority in the network compared to other packets.
Lowering the priority might result in a reduced timely behavior of
the ANCP session, and increasing the priority may result in
impacting other traffic in the network than ANCP.

Unauthorized changes to ancpAnSessionConfigNasIpAddressType and/or
ancpAnSessionConfigNasIpAddress and/or
ancpAnSessionConfigEncapPortNumber could produce a wrong address
type (interpretation) and/or IP address for the NAS and/or specify
a wrong transport protocol port number for the session,
respectively.
Unauthorized changes to ancpAnSessionConfigNotifyDnEnable could
lead (if the change was setting the attribute to 'enable') to
overload of notification messages at the SNMP manager in case
multiple sessions leave the 'estab' state simultaneously. If the
change was setting the attribute to 'disable' it could lead to
hiding the actual session state from the SNMP manager.
Unauthorized changes to ancpAnSessionConfigNotifyUpEnable could
lead (if the change was setting the attribute to 'enable') to
overload of notification messages at the SNMP manager in case
multiple sessions enter the 'estab' state simultaneously. If the
change was setting the attribute to 'disable' it could lead to
hiding the actual session state from the SNMP manager.
o ancpAnInterfaceConfigTable
The table consists of the following objects that support SET
operations:
* ancpAnInterfaceConfigPartitionId
Unauthorized changes to ancpAnInterfaceConfigPartitionId could
result in a wrong association between the interface and a
partition. It could result in not being able to manage the
interface from the correct session and/or to exposing the
interface to a wrong NAS.
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. This is the table and these are the objects
and their sensitivity/vulnerability:

o ancpAnCurrentSessionTable
Access to these objects would allow an intruder to obtain
information about which vendor's equipment is in use on the
network. Further, such information is considered sensitive in
many environments for competitive reasons.

* ancpAnCurrentSessionAncpVersion

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.
9. IANA considerations
IANA is requested to assign two OID's xxx under mib-2 for ANCP-TC-MIB
and ANCP-AN-MIB.
