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 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.

2.  The Internet-Standard Management Framework

 

Smiler et al.           Expires January 17, 2013                [Page 2]
Internet-Draft       MPLS-TP Linear Protection MIB             July 2012

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
    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-TP-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
 

Smiler et al.           Expires January 17, 2013                [Page 3]
Internet-Draft       MPLS-TP Linear Protection MIB             July 2012

   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

      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
 

Smiler et al.           Expires January 17, 2013                [Page 4]
Internet-Draft       MPLS-TP Linear Protection MIB             July 2012

   There is a dependency between the MPLS-TP-LPS-MIB module and [MPLS-
   OAM-ID-STD-MIB] defined in draft-ietf-mpls-tp-oam-id-mib. The
   mplsOamIdMegIndex, mplsOamIdMeIndex and mplsOamIdMeMpIndex defined in
   mplsOamIdMeTable of [MPLS-OAM-ID-STD-MIB] is used as the index of the
   mplsLpsMeConfigTable defined in the MPLS-TP-LPS-MIB module. 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.

6.2. MIB modules required for IMPORTS

   The MPLS-TP-LPS-MIB module requires following MIB modules for
   IMPORTS:

   o  SNMPv2-SMI defined in [RFC2578]

   o  SNMPv2-CONF defined in [RFC2580]

   o  SNMPv2-TC defined in [RFC2579]

   o  MPLS-OAM-ID-STD-MIB defined in [draft-ietf-mpls-tp-oam-id-mib]

        protection entities is transmitted simultaneously to
        the sink of the protection domain, where selection

        In the 1:1 scheme, a protection path is allocated to
        protect against a defect, failure, or a degradation in a
        working path. In normal conditions, data traffic is
        transmitted over the working entity, while the
        protection entity functions in the idle state. If there
        is a defect on the working entity or a specific
        administrative request, traffic is switched to the
        protection entity.

        1:n

        In case of 1:n linear protection, one protection entity
        is allocated to protect n working entities. The protection
        entity might not have sufficient resources to protect all the
        working entities that may be affected by fault conditions at a
        specific time. In this case, in order to guaranteed
        protection, the protection entity should support enough

8.  Security Considerations

 

Smiler et al.           Expires January 17, 2013               [Page 24]
Internet-Draft       MPLS-TP Linear Protection MIB             July 2012

   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:

   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.
