Introduction [RFC4663], published in September, 2006, described a plan for transferring responsibility for four MIB modules related to bridges from the IETF to IEEE 802.1. Some years later, responsibility for eight more MIB modules was transferred from the IETF Ethernet Interfaces and Hub MIB (hubmib) Working Group to the IEEE 802.3 Working Group. The MIB modules concerned are tabulated below (Section 2). [RFC4663] clearly enunciates the motivation for both transfers and also provides an introduction to IEEE standardization procedures. The discussions of those topics will not be repeated here. The IEEE version of this second lot of transferred MIB modules was published as 802.3.1-2011 in February, 2011. The IEEE 802.3.1 specification was subsequently updated. The latest version, IEEE 802.3.1-2013 [IEEE802.3.1-2013], is the basis for this document. 2. IETF and Corresponding IEEE 802.3 MIB modules This section tabulates the MIB modules that were transferred to IEEE 802.3, identifying the IETF source document, the corresponding clause of [IEEE802.3.1-2013], and the location of the MIB itself in ASCII format.

Procedural Aspects Of the Transfer 3.1. IEEE MIB Modules in ASCII Format The content of Section 2.2 of [RFC4663] is accurate also for this document. 3.2. OID Registration for New MIB Modules The IEEE 802.3 WG adopted the approach recommended in [RFC4663], Section 2.3 of developing an IEEE MIB module and defining new compliance clauses under the IEEE OID branch. Information about the IEEE 802.3 Management Registration Arcs can be found at http://www.ieee802.org/3/arcs/index.html. 3.3. Mailing List Discussions The Ethernet Interfaces and Hub MIB WG has completed its documents, and the WG was closed in September 2007. The mailing list stayed open for a while, and was closed a few years later. The appropriate mailing list for IEEE 802.3 MIB modules discussion is STDS-802-3- MIB@LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG. To see general information about 802.3, including how they work and how to participate, go to http://www.ieee802.org/3/. Taylor & Romascanu Expires April 17, 2015 [Page 4] Internet-Draft Transferring MIB modules To IEEE 802.3 October 2014 3.4. IETF MIB Doctor Reviews The content of Section 5 of [RFC4663] is accurate also for this document, noting that from the point of view of the present document, 802.3 should replace 802.1 wherever it occurs in the text. 4. Security Considerations This document records the transfer of ownership of Ethernet-related MIB modules to IEEE 802.3.1 several years ago. The transfer has no security implications. 5. IANA Considerations This document requires no actions by IANA. 6. IPR Considerations See Section 9 of [RFC4663]. 7. Acknowledgements Thanks to Juergen Schoenwaelder and Howard Frazier for their reviews and comments on both the initial and the present versions of this document. During Working Group Last Call, Warren Kumari caught a nit, and Thomas Petch raised the point of ownership versus responsibility that resulted in some wording changes in the Abstract and Introduction. 8.
