The SNMP Management Framework The SNMP Management Framework presently consists of five major components: o An overall architecture, described in RFC 2571 [2]. 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 [3], STD 16, RFC 1212 [4] and RFC 1215 [5]. The second version, called SMIv2, is described in STD 58, RFC 2578 [6], STD 58, RFC 2579 [7] and STD 58, RFC 2580 [8]. 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 [9]. A second version of the SNMP message protocol, which is not an Internet standards track protocol, is called SNMPv2c and described in RFC 1901 [10] and RFC 1906 [11]. The third version of the message protocol is called SNMPv3 and described in RFC 1906 [11], RFC 2572 [12] and RFC 2574 [13]. o Protocol operations for accessing management information. The first set of protocol operations and associated PDU formats is described in STD 15, RFC 1157 [9]. A second set of protocol operations and associated PDU formats is described in RFC 1905 [14]. o A set of fundamental applications described in RFC 2573 [15] and the view-based access control mechanism described in RFC 2575 [16]. A more detailed introduction to the current SNMP Management Framework can be found in RFC 2570 [17]. Fenner Section 1. [Page 3]
INTERNET-DRAFT Expires: January 2002 July 2001 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-ops-rfc2096-update-00.txt: 12 Jul 2001 Renamed to IPNG working group draft Added scopes to the uses of instance Added inetCidrRouteDiscards to replace ipRoutingDiscards Fixed some remaining ipCidr*/inetCidr* confusion in DESCRIPTIONs Changes from first draft posted to v6mib mailing list: 23 Feb 2001 Update MODULE-IDENTITY Delete inetCidrRouteTos, add inetCidrRouteInstance in INDEX of inetCidrRouteTable. Use InterfaceIndex, InetAddressPrefixLength and InetAutonomousSystemNumber TC's, and limit the SIZE of inetCidrRouteDest and inetCidrRouteNextHop Update conformance info. Added copyright and table of contents. Fenner Section 2. [Page 4]
INTERNET-DRAFT Expires: January 2002 July 2001 3. Overview The MIB consists of one current table and two current global objects. (1) The object inetCidrForwardNumber indicates the number of current routes. This is primarily to avoid having to read the table in order to determine this number. (2) The object inetCidrForwardDiscards counts the number of routes that were discarded even though they were invalid. (3) The inetCidrRouteTable provides the ability to display IP version independent multipath CIDR routes. In addition, there is one deprecated table and object, and one obsolete table and object, representing previous revisions of this MIB. (1) The obsolete object ipForwardNumber represents the number of entries in the obsolete ipForwardTable. (2) The obsolete ipForwardTable updates the RFC 1213 ipRouteTable to display multipath IP Routes. This is in turn obsoleted by the ipCidrRouteTable. (3) The deprecated object ipCidrRouteNumber represents the number of entries in the deprecated ipCidrRouteTable. (4) The deprecated ipCidrRouteTable updates the RFC 1213 ipRouteTable to display multipath IP Routes having the same network number but differing network masks. 4.

For those systems that do not support arbitrary subnet masks, an agent constructs the value of the ipForwardMask by reference to the IP Address Class. Any assignment (implicit or otherwise) of an instance of this object to a value x must be rejected if the bitwise logical-AND of x with the value of the corresponding instance of the ipForwardDest object is not equal to ipForwardDest."

Note that local(3) refers to a route for which the next hop is the final destination; remote(4) refers to a route for which the next hop is not the final destination. Setting this object to the value invalid(2) has the effect of invalidating the corresponding entry in the ipForwardTable object. That is, it effectively disassociates the destination identified with said entry from the route identified with said entry. It is an implementation-specific matter as to whether the agent removes an invalidated entry from the table. Accordingly, management stations must be prepared to receive tabular information from agents that corresponds to entries not currently in use. Proper interpretation of such entries requires examination of the relevant ipForwardType object."

Security Considerations There are a number of management objects defined in this MIB that have a MAX-ACCESS clause of read-write and/or read-create. Such objects may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. The support for SET operations in a non-secure environment without proper protection can have a negative effect on network operations. There are a number of managed objects in this MIB that may contain sensitive information. These are: The routing table can be used to discover information about the network topology within a domain. 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 Fenner Section 8. [Page 29]
INTERNET-DRAFT Expires: January 2002 July 2001 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 [13] and the View-based Access Control Model RFC 2575 [16] 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. 9.
