1.   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]. 
    
2.   Introduction 
    
   A multimedia terminal adapter (MTA) is used to deliver broadband 
   Internet, data, and/or voice access jointly with telephony service 
   to a subscriber's or customer's premises using a cable network 
   infrastructure. An MTA is normally installed at the customer's or 
   subscriber's premises, and it is coupled to a multiple system 
   operator (MSO) using a hybrid fiber coax (HFC) access network.

PacketCable/IPCablecom NCS Signaling MIB                   August 2007 
 
 
   An MTA is provisioned by the MSO for broadband Internet, data, 
   and/or voice service. For more information on MTA provisioning refer 
   to the PacketCable Provisioning Specification [PKT-SP-PROV] and 
   [RFC4682]. MTA devices include one or more endpoints (e.g., 
   telephone ports) which receive call signaling information to 
   establish ring cadence, and codecs used for providing telephony 
   service. For more information on call signaling refer to the 
   PacketCable Signaling Specification [PKT-SP-MGCP] and [RFC3435]. For 
   more information on codecs refer to the Packetcable Audio/Video 
   Codecs Specification [PKT-SP-CODEC]. 
    
   Telephone systems are typically very complex and often have a wide 
   distribution. It is therefore important for management systems to 
   support MTAs from multiple vendors at the same time, including those 
   from multiple countries. This MIB module provides objects suitable 
   for managing signaling for MTA devices in the widest possible range 
   of markets. 
    
3.   Terminology 
    
   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]. 
    
   The terms "MIB module" and "information module" are used 
   interchangeably in this memo.  As used here, both terms refer to any 
   of the three types of information modules defined in Section 3 of 
   RFC 2578 [RFC2578]. 
    
3.1    MTA 
    
   An MTA is a PacketCable or IPCablecom compliant device providing 
   telephony services over a cable or hybrid system used to deliver 
   video signals to a community. It contains an interface to endpoints, 
   a network interface, codecs, and all signaling and encapsulation 
   functions required for Voice over IP transport, call signaling, and 
   Quality of Service signaling. An MTA can be an embedded or a 
   standalone device. An Embedded MTA (E-MTA) is an MTA device 
   containing an embedded Data Over Cable Service Interface 
   Specifications (DOCSIS) Cable Modem. A Standalone MTA (S-MTA) is an 
   MTA device separated from the DOCSIS Cable Modem by non-DOCSIS MAC 
   interface (e.g., Ethernet, USB). 
    
3.2    Endpoint 
    
   An endpoint or MTA endpoint is a standard telephony physical port 
   located on the MTA and used for attaching the telephone device to 
   the MTA.

3.3    L Line Package 
    
   The L line package refers to the MGCP package for the core signaling 
   functionality as defined by PacketCable and IPCablecom. An MTA 
   provides all L package elements, however the operator determines 
   their application. 
    
3.4    E Line Package 
    
   The E line package refers to the MGCP package extensions, over and 
   above the core L package, defined in support of international 
   requirements. E line package elements are optional, vary from 
   country to country, and are set by operator or regulatory 
   requirements. 
    
4.   Overview 
   This MIB module provides a set of objects required for Multimedia 
   Terminal Adapter (MTA) devices compliant with the PacketCable and 
   IPCablecom signaling specifications published by CableLabs, the 
   European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI), and the 
   International Telecommunication Union Telecommunication 
   Standardization Sector (ITU-T)IPCablecom compliant Multimedia 
   Terminal Adapter (MTA) devices. The Signaling MIB module (PKTC-SIG-
   MIB) is intended to update various Signaling MIB modules from which 
   it is partly derived: 
     - the PacketCable 1.0 Signaling MIB Specification 
       [PKT-SP-MIB-SIG-1.0], 
     - the PacketCable 1.5 Signaling MIB Specification 
       [PKT-SP-MIB-SIG-1.5], 
     - the ITU-T IPCablecom Signaling MIB requirements [ITU-T-J169], 
     - the ETSI Signaling MIB [ETSI-TS-101-909-9]. The ETSI Signaling    
       MIB requirements also refer to various signal characteristics 
       defined in [ETSI-TS-101-909-4], [ETSI-EN-300-001],  
       [ETSI-EN-300-659-1], [ETSI-EN-300-324-1] and [ETSI-TR-101-183]. 
   Several normative and informative references are used to help define 
   Signaling MIB objects. As a convention, wherever PacketCable and 
   IPCablecom requirements are equivalent, the PacketCable reference is 
   used in the object REFERENCE clause. IPCablecom compliant MTA 
   devices MUST use the equivalent IPCablecom references. 
    
   This MIB module describes the various Signaling MIB objects that are 
   directly related to the PacketCable MTA and the endpoints supported 
   on the MTA, each of which provides services independently. The 
   recognition and distinction of the endpoints is made by utilizing 
   the ifTable (IF-MIB [RFC2863]), where each index (ifIndex) refers to 
   a unique endpoint. This MIB module also utilizes the syntax 
   definition of the Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) from 
   DIFFSERV-DSCP-TC [RFC3289] for defining MIB objects that allow for

   differentiation between various types of traffic in the service 
   provider network.  
    
    
    
    
4.1    Structure of the MIB 
    
    
   This MIB module is identified by pktcSigMib and is structured into 
   two major parts: 
    
   - Signaling information that control device and endpoint 
   configuration (pktcSigMibObjects) 
    
   - Module Conformance information(pktcSigConformance) 
 
   The following sections explain each part in further detail. It is to 
   be noted that future enhancements to specify Notification Objects is 
   also allowed(pktcSigNotification). 
 
    
4.2    pktcSigMibObjects 
    
   This is further divided into device-specific elements 
   (pktcSigDevObjects) and endpoint-specific elements 
   (pktcSigEndPntConfigObjects). 
    
   Some highlights of the device-specific elements are as follows: 
    
   pktcSigDevCodecTable - this object identifies the codec types 
   available on the device. 
    
   pktcSigDevEchoCancellation - This object identifies the capability 
   of echo cancellation on the device. 
    
   pktcSigDevSilenceSuppression - This object specifies if the device 
   is capable of silence suppression (Voice Activity Detection). 
    
   pktcSigPulseSignalTable - this international object selects the 
   various signals used in the application of the metering pulse signal 
   to the twisted pair line. 
    
   pktcSigDevToneTable - this international table specifies a flexible 
   structure within which to specify all of the tones used in the MTA. 
    
   pktcSigDevMultiFreqToneTable - this table defines the 
   characteristics of tones with multiple frequencies. Each entry in

PacketCable/IPCablecom NCS Signaling MIB                   August 2007 
 
 
   this table represents the frequency reference of a multi-frequency 
   tone. 
    
   The endpoint-specific elements are mostly confined to the Endpoint 
   configuration MIB table (pktcSigEndPntConfigTable). This table 
   describes the MTA endPoint configuration. The number of entries in 
   this table represents the number of provisioned endpoints. 
    
    
4.3    pktcSigConformance 
    
   pktcSigDeviceGroup - this group contains all the MIB  Objects that 
   apply on a per-device basis and need to be implemented by an MTA to 
   claim compliance with the specified MIB module.  
    
   pktcSigEndpointGroup - this group contains all the MIB Objects that 
   apply on a per-endpoint basis and need to be implemented by an MTA 
   to claim compliance with the specified MIB module. 
    
   pktcLLinePackageGroup - this group contains the MIB Objects that 
   need to be implemented to support the L Line Package.  
     
   pktcELinePackageGroup - this group contains the MIB Objects that 
   need to be implemented to support the E Line Package.  
    
   pktcInternationalGroup- this group contains optional MIB Objects 
   designed to support operations over the widest possible range of 
   markets.

       DESCRIPTION 
             "This object provides an encoding scheme for ring  
             cadences, including repeatability characteristics. All  
             fields in this object MUST be encoded in network-byte  
             order. 
    
             The first three higher order octets are reserved. The  
             octets that follow are used to encode a 'bit-string', with  
             each bit corresponding to 50 milliseconds. A bit value of  
             '1' indicates the presence of a ring-tone and a bit value  
             of '0' indicates the absence of a ring-tone, for that  
             duration (50 ms) (Note: A minimum number of octets  
             required to encode the bit-string MUST be used). 
    
             The first two of the reserved octets MUST indicate the  
             length of the encoded cadence (in bits) and MUST range  
             between 1 and 264. (Note: The length in bits MUST also be  
             consistent with the number of octets that encode the  
             cadence). The MTA MUST ignore any unused bits in the last  
             octet, but MUST reflect the value as provided on  
             subsequent SNMP GETs. 
    
             The third of the reserved octets indicates 'repeatability'

             For the dtAsETS method, the FSK or DTMF   
             is sent after the Dual Tone Alert Signal. For the rpAsETS  
             method, the FSK or DTMF is sent after a Ring Pulse.  
    
    
             For the lrAsETS method, the Line Reversal occurs first,  
             then the Dual Tone Alert Signal, and finally the FSK or   
             DTMF is sent.  
    
             For the OSI method, the FSK or DTMF is sent after the Open  
             Switching Interval. 
    
             For the lrETS method, the Line Reversal occurs first

6.   Examples 
   This section provides a couple of examples, specifically related  
   to the MIB tables pktcSigDevToneTable and 
   pktcSigDevMultiFreqToneTable.

   Example A:  Call waiting tone defined per ITU-T E.180: 
    
   1) 400 Hz AM modulated by 16 Hz, on for 500ms at -4 dBm 
   2) 400 Hz AM modulated by 16 Hz, off for 400ms 
   3) 400 Hz not AM modulated, on for 50 ms at -4 dBm 
   4) 400 Hz not AM modulated, off for 450 ms 
   5) 400 Hz not AM modulated, on for 50 ms at -4 dBm 
   6) 400 Hz not AM modulated, off for 3450 ms 
   7) 400 Hz not AM modulated, on for 50 ms at -4 dBm 
   8) 400 Hz not AM modulated, off for 450 ms 
   9) 400 Hz not AM modulated, on for 50 ms at -4 dBm 
   10)   400 Hz not AM modulated, off for 3450 ms 
   11)   not repeated, not continuous 
    
   Assume userDefined1(18) is assigned to this tone:

   The single row of the pktcSigDevToneTable defines one multi- 
   frequency group of five rows (ToneFreqCounter) defined in the  
   pktcSigDevMultiFreqToneTable and instructs the MTA to play this 
   group only once (non-repeatable as ToneRep-Count equals 0).  
    
    
   Example B - Congestion Tone - congestion(17): 
    
   Note: This example of an embedded cadence is based on an operator 
   variation. 
    
   1) 400Hz on for 400ms -10 dBm 
   2) 400Hz off for 350ms 
   3) 400Hz on for 225ms -4 dBm 
   4) 400Hz off for 525ms

   Example C - Call Waiting Tone - callWaiting1(9): 
        
   1) 16 Hz is modulated to carry the 400 Hz signal, ModulationRate 
   within 85%, on for 500msec, at -25 dBm or more but less than -14 dBm 
   2) 16 Hz is modulated to carry the 400 Hz signal, off for 0 ~ 4 secs

   than -14 dBm 
   4) 400 Hz not modulated, off for 450ms

8.   Security Considerations 
    

 
 
Beacham/Kumar/Channabasappa Expires - January 2008           [Page 71] 

PacketCable/IPCablecom NCS Signaling MIB                   August 2007 
 
 
   There are a number of management objects defined in this MIB that 
   have 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. 
    
   The following Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) and mask 
   objects are used to differentiate between various types of traffic 
   in the service provider network: 
    
        pktcSigDefCallSigDscp 
        pktcSigDefMediaStreamDscp 
    
   These objects may contain information that may be sensitive from a 
   business perspective. For example, they may represent a customer's 
   service contract that a service provider chooses to apply to a 
   customer's ingress or egress traffic. If these objects are SET 
   maliciously, it may permit unmarked or inappropriately marked 
   signaling and media traffic to enter the service provider network, 
   resulting in unauthorized levels of service for customers. 
    
   The following objects determine ring cadence, repeatable 
   characteristics, signal duration, and caller id subscriber line 
   protocol for telephony operation: 
    
        pktcSigDevR0Cadence 
        pktcSigDevR1Cadence 
        pktcSigDevR2Cadence 
        pktcSigDevR3Cadence 
        pktcSigDevR4Cadence 
        pktcSigDevR5Cadence 
        pktcSigDevR6Cadence 
        pktcSigDevR7Cadence 
        pktcSigDevRgCadence 
        pktcSigDevRsCadence 
        pktcSigDevCidSigProtocol 
        pktcSigDevVmwiSigProtocol 
        pktcSigPulseSignalDuration 
        pktcSigPulseSignalPauseDuration 
    
   If these objects are SET maliciously, it may result in unwanted 
   operation, or a failure to obtain telephony service from client 
   (MTA) devices. 
    
   The objects in the pktcSigEndPntConfigTable are used for endpoint 
   signaling. The pktcSigEndPntConfigCallAgentId object contains the 
   name of the call agent, which includes the call agent Fully 
   Qualified Domain Name (FQDN). If this object is SET maliciously, the 
 
 
Beacham/Kumar/Channabasappa Expires - January 2008           [Page 72] 

PacketCable/IPCablecom NCS Signaling MIB                   August 2007 
 
 
   MTA will not be able to communicate with the call agent, resulting 
   in a disruption of telephony service. The 
   pktcSigEndPntConfigCallAgentUdpPort object identifies the UDP port 
   for NCS traffic. If this object is SET maliciously, the call agent 
   will not receive NCS traffic from the MTA, also resulting in a 
   disruption of telephony service. 
    
   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.  The most sensitive is 
   pktcSigEndPntStatusCallIpAddress within pktcSigEndPntConfigTable. 
   This information itself may be valuable to would-be attackers. 
    
   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 
    
   The MIB module in this document uses the following IANA-assigned 
   OBJECT IDENTIFIER values recorded in the SMI Numbers registry: 
    
   Descriptor     OBJECT IDENTIFIER Value 
   ----------     ----------------------- 
   pktcSigMib     { mib-2 XXX } 
    
   Editor's Note (to be removed prior to publication): the IANA is 
   requested to assign a value for XXX under the mib-2 subtree and to 
   record the assignment in the SMI Numbers registry. When the 
   assignment has been made, the RFC Editor is asked to replace XXX
