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 MPLS Transport Profile (MPLS-TP) Linear Protection. This MIB module should be used for configuring and managing the MPLS TP linear protection for MPLS TP LSPs. At the time of writing, SNMP SET is no longer recommended as a way to configure MPLS networks as was described in [RFC3812]. However, since the MIB modules specified in this document are intended to work in parallel with the MIB modules for MPLS specified in [RFC3812], certain objects defined here are specified with MAX-ACCESS of read- write or read-create so that specifications of the base tables in [RFC3812] and the new MIB modules in this document are consistent. Although the examples described in Section 7 specify means to configure OAM identifiers for MPLS-TP tunnels, this should be seen as indicating how the MIB values would be returned in the specified circumstances having been configured by alternative means. 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 [RFC6378] defines the protocol to provide a linear protection switching mechanism for MPLS transport profile with protection Smiler et al. Expires August 06, 2015 [Page 3] Internet-Draft MPLS-TP Linear Protection MIB February 02, 2015 domain as point-to-point LSP. The detailed protocol specification of MPLS transport profile linear protection is described in [RFC6378]. This document specifies a MIB module for the LER that supports MPLS TP Linear protection (which includes 1:n protection architecture) and a MIB module that defines textual conventions. 5. Structure of the MIB Module 5.1. Textual Conventions The following new textual conventions are defined in a separate MIB module in this document MplsLpsReq MplsLpsFpathPath MplsLpsCommand 5.2. The MPLS TP Linear Protection Subtree MPLS-LPS-MIB is the MIB module defined in this document, and it is put under mplsStdMIB. 5.3. The Notifications Subtree Notifications are defined to inform the management station about switchover and mode mismatch of linear protection switching group. Two notifications are defined for this purpose. The notification, mplsLpsEventSwitchover is to inform the management station about the switchover of the active path and the notification mplsLpsEventModeMismatch is to inform the management station about the mismatch in the revertive mode across the end point of the protection domain. 5.4. The Table Structures The MPLS TP Linear protection MIB module has four tables. The tables are as follows o mplsLpsConfigTable This table is used to configure MPLS TP Linear protection switching Group. The protection switching group is identified by mplsLpsConfigGroupName. The other attributes in this table can be used to configure properties that are specific to the protection switching group. o mplsLpsStatusTable Smiler et al. Expires August 06, 2015 [Page 4] Internet-Draft MPLS-TP Linear Protection MIB February 02, 2015 This table provides the current status information of mpls linear protection groups that have been configured on the system. When a protection group is configured or deleted in the mplsLpsConfigTable, then the corresponding row of that session in the mplsLpsStatusTable is, respectively, automatically created or deleted. o mplsLpsMeConfigTable This table is used to associate the Maintenance Entities (MEs) to the protection switching group. The ME is identified by mplsOamIdMegIndex, mplsOamIdMeIndex and mplsOamIdMeMpIndex. o mplsLpsMeStatusTable This table provides the current information about the protection state of MEs that have been configured on the system. When a ME configured or deleted in the mplsLpsMeConfigTable, then the corresponding row of that session in the mplsLpsMeStatusTable is, respectively, automatically created or deleted. 6. Relationship to Other MIB Modules 6.1. Relationship to the MPLS OAM maintenance identifiers MIB module The mplsLpsMeConfigTable entry is extended by entry in the mplsOamIdMeTable [MPLS-OAM-ID-STD-MIB] defined in draft-ietf-mpls-tp- oam-id-mib. Note that the nature of the 'extends' relationship is a sparse augmentation so that the entry in the mplsLpsMeConfigTable has the same index values as the entry in the mplsOamIdMeTable. Each time that an entry is created in the mplsOamIdMeTable for which the LER supports MPLS TP Linear protection a row is created automatically in the mplsLpsMeConfigTable. 7. Example of Protection switching configuration for MPLS-TP TE tunnel This example considers the protection group configuration on a head-end LSR to provide protection for a co-routed bidirectional MPLS tunnel. Only relevant objects which are applicable for protection group identifiers of co-routed MPLS tunnel are illustrated here. In mplsOamIdMegTable: { -- MEG index (Index to the table) mplsOamIdMegIndex = 1, mplsOamIdMegName = "MEG1", Smiler et al. Expires August 06, 2015 [Page 5] Internet-Draft MPLS-TP Linear Protection MIB February 02, 2015 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 protect 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) } The below table associates the MEs with protection switching groups.

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 networks 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: 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: - mplsLpsConfigTable, mplsLpsStatusTable, mplsLpsMeConfigTable and mplsLpsMeStatusTable collectively show the MPLS Linear Protection characteristics. If an Administrator does not want to reveal this information, then these tables should be considered sensitive/vulnerable. SNMP versions prior to SNMPv3 did not include adequate security. Even if the network itself is secure (for example by using IPsec), 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. Implementations SHOULD provide the security features described by the SNMPv3 framework (see [RFC3410]), and implementations claiming compliance to the SNMPv3 standard MUST include full support for authentication and privacy via the User-based Security Model (USM) Smiler et al. Expires August 06, 2015 [Page 27] Internet-Draft MPLS-TP Linear Protection MIB February 02, 2015 [RFC3414] with the AES cipher algorithm [RFC3826]. Implementations MAY also provide support for the Transport Security Model (TSM) [RFC5591] in combination with a secure transport such as SSH [RFC5592] or TLS/DTLS [RFC6353]. 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. 10. IANA Considerations IANA is requested to assign an OID for the MIB module from the "MIB Transmission Group - MPLS STD" sub-registry of the "Internet-standard MIB - Transmission Group" registry for the MPLS Linear Protection MIB module specified in this document. 11.
