Control (IEEE 802.1X) MIB
Abstract
This document defines a portion of the Management Information Base
(MIB) for use with network management protocols in TCP/IP-based
internets. In particular, it defines objects for managing the
operation of Port Access Control, based on the specification
contained in Clause 8 and Clause 9 of the IEEE 802.1X standard. This
clause includes a MIB module that is SNMPv2 SMI compliant.
This standard defines a mechanism for Port-based network access
control that makes use of the physical access characteristics of
IEEE 802 LAN infrastructures in order to provide a means of
authenticating and authorizing devices attached to a LAN port that
has point-to-point connection characteristics, and of preventing

INTERNET-DRAFT draft-ietf-bridge-8021x-00.txt May 30, 2002
access to that port in cases in which the authentication and
authorization process fails.
This standard is part of a family of standards for local and
metropolitan area networks.
This draft is written within the IEEE 802.1X working group and is
being presented to the IETF for informational purposes.

1. Introduction
The SNMP Management Framework
The SNMP Management Framework presently consists of five major
components:
o An overall architecture, described in RFC 2571 [RFC2571].
o Mechanisms for describing and naming objects and events for the
purpose of management. The first version of this Structure of
Management Information (SMI) is called SMIv1 and described in
STD 16, RFC 1155 [RFC1155], STD 16, RFC 1212 [RFC1212] and RFC
1215 [RFC1215]. The second version, called SMIv2, is described
in STD 58, RFC 2578 [RFC2578], STD 58, RFC 2579 [RFC2579] and
STD 58, RFC 2580 [RFC2580].
o Message protocols for transferring management information. The
first version of the SNMP message protocol is called SNMPv1 and
described in STD 15, RFC 1157 [RFC1157]. A second version of
Norseth Expires November 2002 [Page 2]
INTERNET-DRAFT draft-ietf-bridge-8021x-00.txt May 30, 2002
the SNMP message protocol, which is not an Internet standards
track protocol, is called SNMPv2c and described in RFC 1901
[RFC1901] and RFC 1906 [RFC1906]. The third version of the
message protocol is called SNMPv3 and described in RFC 1906
[RFC1906], RFC 2572 [RFC2572] and RFC 2574 [RFC2574].
o Protocol operations for accessing management information. The
first set of protocol operations and associated PDU formats is
described in STD 15, RFC 1157 [RFC1157]. A second set of
protocol operations and associated PDU formats is described in
RFC 1905 [RFC1905].
o A set of fundamental applications described in RFC 2573
[RFC2573] and the view-based access control mechanism described
in RFC 2575 [RFC2575].
A more detailed introduction to the current SNMP Management Framework
can be found in RFC 2570 [RFC2570].
Managed objects are accessed via a virtual information store, termed
the Management Information Base or MIB. Objects in the MIB are
defined using the mechanisms defined in the SMI.
This memo specifies a MIB module that is compliant to the SMIv2. A
MIB conforming to the SMIv1 can be produced through the appropriate
translations. The resulting translated MIB must be semantically
equivalent, except where objects or events are omitted because no
translation is possible (use of Counter64). Some machine readable
information in SMIv2 will be converted into textual descriptions in
SMIv1 during the translation process. However, this loss of machine
readable information is not considered to change the semantics of the
MIB.
2. Overview
A common device present in many networks is the Bridge. This device
is used to connect Local Area Network segments below the network
layer. These devices are often known as 'layer 2 switches'.
There are two major modes defined for this bridging: Source-Route and
transparent. Source-Route bridging is described by IEEE 802.5
[802.5] and is not discussed further in this document.
The transparent method of bridging is defined by IEEE 802.1D-1998
[802.1D] Managed objects for that original specification of
transparent bridging were defined in RFC 1493 [BRIDGEMIB].
2.1. Scope
This MIB is the republishing of the IEEE Definitions for Port
Access Control MIB (802.1X) defined in the 802.1X specification
document.

3. Structure of MIB
A single MIB module is defined in this clause. Objects in the MIB
are arranged into groups. Each group is organized as a set of related
objects. The overall structure and assignment of objects to their
groups is shown in the following subclauses..IEEE Std 802.1X-2001
LOCAL AND METROPOLITAN AREA NETWORKS 10.4.1 Relationship to the
managed objects defined in IEEE 802.1X Clause 9. The following table
contains cross-references between the objects defined in IEEE 802.1X
Clause 9 and the MIB objects defined in this clause.

3.2 The PAE System Group
This group of objects provides management functionality that is not
specific to the operation of either of the two PAE roles (Supplicant
and Authenticator). A means of enabling and disabling the operation
of Port Access Control for the entire system is provided, plus a
per-Port indication of the protocol version supported and the PAE
roles supported by the port. As it is not mandatory for all Ports of
a System to support PAE functionality, there may be Port entries
that indicate Ports that support neither Supplicant nor
Authenticator functionality.
3.3 The PAE Authenticator Group
This group of objects provides, for each Port of a System, the
functionality necessary to allow configuration of the operation of
Norseth Expires November 2002 [Page 5]
INTERNET-DRAFT draft-ietf-bridge-8021x-00.txt May 30, 2002
the Authenticator PAE, recording and retrieving statistical
information relating to the operation of the Authenticator PAE, and
recording and retrieving information relating to a session (i.e.,
the period of time between consecutive authentications on the Port).
3.4 The PAE Supplicant Group
This group of objects provides, for each Port of a System, the
functionality necessary to allow configuration of the operation of
the Supplicant PAE, and recording and retrieving statistical
information relating to the operation of the Authenticator PAE.
3.5 Relationship to other MIBs
It is assumed that a system implementing this MIB will also implement
(at least) the ihsystemli group defined in MIB-II defined in IETF RFC
1213 and the ihinterfacesln group defined in IETF RFC 2863.
3.6 Relationship to the Interfaces MIB
IETF RFC 2863, the Interface MIB Evolution, requires that any MIB
that is an adjunct of the Interface MIB clarify specific areas within
the Interface MIB. These areas were intentionally left vague in IETF
RFC 2863 to avoid overconstraining the MIB, thereby precluding
management of certain media types.
Section 3.3 of IETF RFC 2863 enumerates several areas that a
media-specific MIB must clarify. Each of these areas is addressed in
a following subsection. The implementor is referred to IETF RFC 2863
in order to understand the general intent of these areas.
In IETF RFC 2863, the ihinterfaceslc group is defined as being
mandatory for all systems and contains information on an entity(tm)s
interfaces, where each interface is thought of as being attached to
a subnetwork.
(Note that this term is not to be confused with subnet, which refers
to an addressing partitioning scheme used in the Internet suite of
protocols.) The term segment is sometimes used to refer to such a
subnetwork.
Where Port numbers are used in this standard to identify Ports of a
System, these numbers are equal to the ifIndex value for the
interface for the corresponding Port.
4 Definitions for the 802.1X-MIB
In the MIB definition below, should any discrepancy between the
DESCRIPTION text and the corresponding definition in IEEE 802.1X
Clause 9 occur, the definition in IEEE 802.1X Clause 9 shall take
precedence.

8. Security Considerations
A number of management objects are defined in this MIB that have a
MAX-ACCESS clause of read-write or read-create. Such objects may be
considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. The
support for SET operations in a nonsecure environment without proper
protection can have a negative effect on network operations.
SNMPv1 by itself is not a secure environment. Even if the network is
secure (for example, by using IPSec), there is no control as to who
on the secure network is allowed to access (read / change / create
/ delete) the objects in this MIB.
It is recommended that the implementors consider the security
features as provided by the SNMPv3 framework. Specifically, the use
of the User-based Security Model, IETF RFC 2574, and the View-based
Access Control Model, IETF RFC 2575, is recommended. It then becomes
a user responsibility to ensure that the SNMP entity giving access to
an instance of this MIB is properly configured to give access only to
those principals (users) that have legitimate rights to access
change / create / delete) them, as appropriate.
