Abstract
This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB) for
use with network management protocols in the Internet community. In
particular, it describes managed objects used for implementations of the
User Datagram Protocol (UDP) [4] in an IP version independent manner.

1. The SNMP Management Framework
The SNMP Management Framework presently consists of five major
components:
o An overall architecture, described in RFC 2571 [5].
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 [6], STD 16, RFC 1212 [7] and RFC 1215 [8]. The second
version, called SMIv2, is described in STD 58, RFC 2578 [9], STD 58,
RFC 2579 [10] and STD 58, RFC 2580 [11].
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 [12]. A second version of the SNMP message protocol,
which is not an Internet standards track protocol, is called SNMPv2c
and described in RFC 1901 [13] and RFC 1906 [14]. The third version of
the message protocol is called SNMPv3 and described in RFC 1906 [14],
RFC 2572 [15] and RFC 2574 [16].
o Protocol operations for accessing management information. The first
set of protocol operations and associated PDU formats is described in
STD 15, RFC 1157 [12]. A second set of protocol operations and
associated PDU formats is described in RFC 1905 [17].
o A set of fundamental applications described in RFC 2573 [18] and the
view-based access control mechanism described in RFC 2575 [19].
A more detailed introduction to the current SNMP Management Framework
can be found in RFC 2570 [20].

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. Revision History
Changes from draft-ietf-ipngwg-rfc2013-update-00.txt
14 November 2001
Added udpConnectionTable
Added udpListenerRemoteAddressType, to distinguish e.g. IPV6_V6ONLY
Added counters to udpListenerTable and udpConnectionTable
Changes from draft-ops-rfc2013-update-00.txt
12 Jul 2001
Turned into IPNG WG document
Changes from first draft posted to v6mib mailing list:
23 Feb 2001
Made threshold for HC packet counters 1Mpps
Added copyright statements and table of contents
21 Feb 2001 -- Juergen's changes
Renamed udpInetTable to udpListenerTable
Updated Conformance info
Fenner Section 2. [Page 4]
INTERNET-DRAFT Expires: May 2002 November 2001
6 Feb 2001
Removed v6-only objects.
Removed remote and instance objects, turning the table back into a
listener-only table.
Renamed inetUdp* to udpInet*
Added HC in and out datagram counters
Added SIZE restriction to udpListenerLocalAddress. (36 = 32-byte
addresses plus 4-byte scope, but it's just a strawman)
Used InetPortNumber TC from updated INET-ADDRESS-MIB
Updated compliance statements.
Added Keith to authors
Added open issues section.
3. MIB Structure
(Obviously this section needs a lot of work)
Addresses are as seen on the wire, not necessarily as the socket sees
them (e.g. IPv4 address, not IPv6-mapped IPv4)
Listener on in6addr_any without IPV6_V6ONLY socket option set (i.e.
willing to accept v4 or v6) is indicated by remote AF = unknown.

5. Open Issues
Why is udpListenerRemoteAddressType = unknown better than
udpListenerLocalAddressType = unknown and udpListenerLocalAddress = ''h?
Then we could get rid of udpListenerRemoteAddressType.
"sent by this listener" on counters is insanely confusing. RFC 768 just
describes receive ports and send operations, but that doesn't jibe with
modern implementations, e.g. BSD sockets, winsock, etc.
Multicast membership info?
Is udp*ProcessID OK? Should there be an OID pointer into a row of some
*Run* table?

8. Security Considerations
There are no management objects defined in this MIB that have a MAX-
ACCESS clause of read-write and/or read-create. So, if this MIB is
implemented correctly, then there is no risk that an intruder can alter
or create any management objects of this MIB via direct SNMP SET
operations.
There are a number of managed objects in this MIB that may contain
sensitive information. These are:
o The udpListenerLocalPort and udpLocalPort objects can be used to
identify what ports are open on the machine and can thus what attacks
are likely to succeed, without the attacker having to run a port
scanner.
It is thus important to control even GET access to these objects and
possibly to even encrypt the values of these object when sending them
over the network via SNMP. Not all versions of SNMP provide features
for such a secure environment.
SNMPv1 by itself is not a secure environment. 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.
It is recommended that the implementers consider the security features
as provided by the SNMPv3 framework. Specifically, the use of the User-
based Security Model RFC 2574 [16] and the View-based Access Control
Model RFC 2575 [19] is recommended.
It is then a customer/user responsibility to ensure that the SNMP entity
giving access to an instance of this MIB, 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.
