  2  Abstract
  
     This document 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 related to
     the forwarding of Internet Protocol (IP) packets, in an IP version
     independent manner.

  6  Revision History
  
     Changes from draft-ietf-ipv6-rfc-2096-update-01.txt:
  
      02 Nov 2002   Fixed bugs that caused the MIB not to compile.
  
                    Changed the type of inetCidrRouteDscp to Dscp.
  
                    Improved the revision information.
  
                    Removed inetCidrRouteNumber and inetCidrRouteWeight.
  
                    Other editorial changes.
  
     Changes from draft-ietf-ipv6-rfc-2096-update-00.txt:
  
      22 Aug 2002   Minor editorial changes and clean-up
  
     Changes from draft-ietf-ipngwg-rfc-2096-update-00.txt:
  
      27 Jun 2002   Added inetCidrRouteDscp index and inetCidrRouteWeight
                    object to the inetCidrRouteTable.
  
                    Restored inetCidrRouteNextHopType variable (may be
                    different from inetCidrRouteDestType, due to global
                    vs. non-global distinction in new InetAddress TCs).
  
                    Removed inetCidrRouteInstance object. Use to identify
                    a conceptual routing table is obviated by new
                    InetAddress types and inclusion of DSCP index.
  
                    Changed editor, moved author information to end,
                    several editorial changes.

  7  The SNMP Management Framework
  
     The SNMP Management Framework presently consists of five major
     components:
  
          - An overall architecture, described in RFC 2571 [2].
  
          - 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].
  
          - 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].
  
          - 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].
  
          - 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].
  
     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.

     IP Forwarding Table MIB                               November 2002
  
  
  8  Overview
  
     The MIB consists of one current table and two current global
     objects.
  
          1. The object inetCidrRouteNumber 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 inetCidrRouteDiscards counts the number of valid
             routes that were discarded for any reason.
  
          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.

                 Setting this object to the value invalid(2) has the
                 effect of invalidating the corresponding entry in the

                 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

  10 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 control as to whom 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.
