4.  The SNMP Network 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
        RFC 1155 [RFC1155], RFC 1212 [RFC1212] and RFC 1215 [RFC1215].
        The second version, called SMIv2, is described in RFC 2578
        [RFC2578], RFC 2579 [RFC2579] and RFC 2580 [RFC2580].

    o   Message protocols for transferring management information. The
        first version of the SNMP message protocol is called SNMPv1 and
        described in RFC 1157 [RFC1157]. A second version of 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 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.

5.  Overview

There is a need for a standardized way of monitoring the network traffic
usage of Differentiated Services (DS) [RFC2474] codepoint values. Each
DS codepoint (DSCP) value may be given a different treatment by a
forwarding device, and this affects which packets get dropped or delayed
during periods of network congestion.

The IETF DIFFSERV working group has redefined the semantics of the Type
of Service (TOS) octet in the IP header, which is now called the 'DS
field'. The 6-bit Codepoint (DSCP) portion is contained in the DS field,
which provides for 64 different packet treatments for the implementation
of differentiated network services.

By polling DSCP usage counters, an NMS can determine the network
throughput for traffic associated with different DSCPs.  This data can
then be analyzed in order to 'tune' DSCP 'allocations' within a network,
based on the Quality of Service (QoS) policies for that network.

Remote monitoring agents are typically implemented as independent
software (and sometimes hardware) components, called 'RMON probes'.
Note that DSMON-capable RMON probes simply collect and aggregate
statistics, based on criteria (which includes the DSCP value) that can
be determined by inspecting the contents of monitored packets.  and do
not in any way monitor any aspect of a DS forwarding device's internal
statistics.

5.1.  Terms

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]

This document uses some terms that need introduction:

DataSource
     A source of data for monitoring purposes. This term is used exactly
     as defined in the RMON-2 MIB [RFC2021].

Internet Draft                  DSMON MIB                   October 2001


protocol
     A specific protocol encapsulation, as identified for monitoring
     purposes.  This term is used exactly as defined in the RMON
     Protocol Identifiers document [RFC2074].

Aggregation Group
     A group of codepoints that are being counted in the same manner
     (i.e., same buckets).  Refer to sections 6.1 and 6.2.1 for details
     on aggregation groups.

Aggregation Profile
     A complete set of aggregation group mappings (i.e. 64 mappings, for
     DSCP values 0 to 63), which are applied to all monitored packets on
     a particular data source and/or DSMON collection.  Refer to
     sections 6.1 and 6.2.1 for details on aggregation profiles.

High Capacity Monitoring
     The generic capability to collect and store statistics with an
     internal range of 64 bits (e.g. Counter64). This term does not
     refer to implementation of the High Capacity RMON MIB (HC-RMON).

5.2.  Relationship to Differentiated Services

The DSMON MIB is a product of the RMONMIB WG, not the DIFFSERV WG, and
it focuses on extending several existing RMON mechanisms to support
additional packet classification, based on DSCP values observed in
monitored packets.  This document assumes the reader is familiar with
the DS Architecture [RFC2475].  It is expected that complex management
applications will use the counters in this MIB to help analyze DS-
related throughput. It is expected that other metrics, such as delay and
jitter, will also be analyzed, but support for other metrics is outside
the scope of this document.

5.3.  Relationship to the Remote Monitoring MIBs

This MIB is intended to be implemented in Remote Monitoring (RMON)
probes, which support the RMON-2 MIB [RFC2021].  Such probes may be
stand-alone devices, or may be co-located with other networking devices
(e.g., ethernet switches and repeaters).

The DSMON functions are intended to be implemented in conjunction with
the associated RMON functions, but the MIB is independent of all other
RMON data tables.

Internet Draft                  DSMON MIB                   October 2001


Several concepts and even MIB objects from the RMON MIBs are used in the
DSMON MIB:

Protocol Directory
     The RMON-2 MIB [RFC2021] defines the protocolDirTable, which is a
     directory of all the protocols that the RMON-2 agent is capable of
     decoding and counting.  The DSMON MIB utilizes this directory to
     identify the protocols detected in monitored packets. The
     protocolDirLocalIndex MIB object is used to identify protocol
     encapsulations in all DSMON data tables which classify and
     aggregate by protocol type in some manner. Note that the
     protocolDirTable is used for protocol identification only,
     independent of DSCP classification.

TimeFilter
     The RMON-2 TimeFilter textual convention provides a mechanism to
     retrieve only rows which have been created or modified since the
     last polling interval (for a particular NMS). The DSMON MIB uses
     this textual convention in the large data tables, in order to
     minimize polling impact.

Zero-Based Counters
     Since counters are instantiated by management action, as in the
     RMON MIBs, the DSMON MIB uses zero-based counters in all data
     collection tables.  Specifically, the ZeroBasedCounter32 textual
     convention from the RMON-2 MIB [RFC2021] and the ZeroBasedCounter64
     textual convention (defined in the HCNUM-TC MIB [RFC2856]) are used
     to define counter objects in this MIB.

High Capacity Counters
     The DSMON MIB uses the 'SNMPv1 coexistence' strategy adopted by the
     RMONMIB WG. That is, where a 64-bit counter is provided, a 32-bit
     version of the counter, and a 32-bit overflow counter are also
     provided.

TopN Reports
     The DSMON MIB uses the same TopN reporting MIB structure as the
     RMON-2 MIB [RFC2021]. TopN reporting can greatly reduce the polling
     overhead required to analyze DSCP usage patterns.

Some DESCRIPTION clauses for DSMON objects are very similar to those for
existing RMON-2 or HC-RMON objects. This is intentional, since the
semantics of the DSMON features are designed to be as close to existing
RMON feature as possible, to allow developers and users some level of
'MIB re-use'.

The DSMON MIB can divided into three functional components:

   - DSMON Capabilities
     Describes which DSMON object groups are supported by the agent on
     at least one data source.

   - Aggregation Control
     Controls how individual DIFFSERV codepoints are aggregated for
     counting purposes in DSMON data collections.

Internet Draft                  DSMON MIB                   October 2001


   - Data Collection
     Controls how individual statistical collections are maintained by
     the agent and reported to management applications.  The individual
     boxes within the Data Collection box represent the DSMON data
     collections (described in section 6.2):

             - Data Source Statistics
             - Protocol Statistics

             - Application Protocol Matrix Statistics
             - Application Protocol Matrix Statistics TopN Reporting


6.1.  DSCP Statistical Aggregation

A statistical aggregation mechanism is provided, based on DSCP values.
This is desirable for several reasons:

 - agent data reduction
     An agent implementation can potentially reduce the number of
     counters maintained for a given DSMON collection.

 - agent data collection limitations
     Some implementation strategies might provide for a limited number
     of high-speed (e.g. hardware-based) counters for either single or
     aggregated codepoints.

 - application data retrieval reduction
     Applications that would otherwise aggregate counters for individual
     codepoints can move that function to the agent in order to reduce
     the polling overhead on the application, the network, and the agent
     device.

 - some unused codepoints at this time
     Various DSCP values may be expected to remain unused on a given
     network, and may be aggregated for counting purposes.

 - some DSCP values are mapped to the same packet treatment
     A network administrator may align the aggregation configuration of
     the monitoring device with the DS configuration, and aggregate
     statistics for DSCP values which are expected to receive the same
     treatment by the forwarding devices.

6.1.1.  Aggregation Configuration

The configuration of DSCP to aggregation group mappings is managed in a
global manner, so that these settings can be shared across several DSMON
collections and/or data sources.  One complete set of DSCP mappings is
called an aggregation profile.  The DSMON control tables are very
similar to existing RMON-2 control tables, except they contain an extra
parameter to identify the aggregation profile the agent should use for
the collection.

The appropriate granularity for aggregation profile assignment may be
the data source, but in order to reduce MIB complexity (by avoiding an
extra layer of tables), an instance of the aggregation profile parameter
exists for each collection.  An agent MAY choose to restrict
configurations such that all DSMON data collections for the same data
source must use the same aggregation profile.

The DSMON MIB supports the configuration of an arbitrary number of
aggregation profiles. There is a top-level aggregation control table,
which contains one entry for each aggregation profile. A subordinate
aggregation profile table provides information about each DSCP to
aggregation group mapping in each profile.  An auxiliary aggregation
group table also provides descriptive information about each aggregation
group in each aggregation profile.  Refer to section 6.2.1 for details
on these MIB objects.

6.2.  MIB Group Overview

The DSMON MIB contains six groups of MIB objects:

  - dsmonAggregateControl group
     Controls the configuration of aggregation groups, for the purpose
     of reducing the total number of counters maintained by the agent.

  - dsmonStatsObjects group
     Report per aggregation group distribution statistics for a
     particular RMON dataSource.

  - dsmonPdistObjects group
     Report per aggregation group distribution statistics for each
     application protocol detected on a particular RMON dataSource.

  - dsmonHostObjects group
     Report host address distribution statistics for each aggregation
     group, detected on a particular RMON dataSource.

  - dsmonCapsObjects group
     Report the static DSMON MIB functional capabilities of the agent
     implementation.

  - dsmonMatrixObjects group
     Report host address pair distribution statistics for each
     aggregation group, detected on a particular RMON dataSource.

6.2.1.  DSCP Aggregation Control Group

This group contains 4 scalar objects and three tables, and is used by a
management station to configure aggregation profiles.

The dsmonMaxAggGroups scalar is a read-only integer which indicates the
maximum number of aggregation groups that the agent will allow to be
configured into a single aggregation profile.  This value SHOULD be
equal to 64 (the number of codepoints), but an agent MAY limit the
number of aggregation groups because of resource limitations (e.g.,
small number of hardware-based counters). At least one aggregation
profile containing at least two aggregation groups SHOULD be supported
by the agent. (Note that classifying all DSCP values into the same
statistical 'bucket' may yield a redundant data collection, which can be
achieved more easily with an HC-RMON or RMON-2 collection instead.)

The dsmonAggControlLocked scalar is used as a top level switch,
controlling most write access to the dsmonAggControlTable,
dsmonAggProfileTable, and dsmonAggGroupTable. (The dsmonAggControlOwner
object is the only exception.)  All active DSMON collection data is
deleted, and collection suspended, while this object is equal to
'false', since the meaning of one or more aggregation control tables may
change when it is set back to 'true'.

The dsmonAggControlChanges counter and dsmonAggControlLastChangeTime
timestamp can be used by a management station to detect that the
codepoint to aggregation group mappings may have changed between polls.

The dsmonAggControlTable is a read-create table which contains one entry
for each aggregation profile configured on the agent.  Each entry is
identified by a dsmonAggControlIndex value, which is also used as the
major index into the dsmonAggProfileTable and dsmonAggGroupTable.  The
DSMON control tables with DataSource objects select an aggregation
profile by referencing this index value.

The dsmonAggProfileTable is a read-write table which contains 64 rows
for each associated entry in the dsmonAggControlTable, which MUST be

indexed from 0 to 63.  The agent creates this set of 64 instances when
the associated dsmonAggControlEntry is activated, and deletes them when
that dsmonAggControlEntry is deactivated.  Each of the 64 rows
represents a DSCP identified by the same dsmonAggProfileDSCP value, and
contains the DSCP to aggregation group mapping for that DSCP, in the
indicated aggregation profile.  The agent SHOULD use the value zero as
the initial aggregation group assignment for each entry in this table.

The dsmonAggGroupTable contains an administratively assigned descriptive
label for each configured aggregation group.  This table is not required
to be fully configured in order for data collection to occur, since
collections are identified by the agent with integer indices. It is
provided to allow the agent to store a descriptive string for each
configured aggregation group. There is no attempt made to convey any
real semantics for each aggregation group.  A management station MAY
choose not to configure entries in this table.

6.2.2.  DS Statistics Group

This group contains two tables, the dsmonStatsControlTable and the
dsmonStatsTable, and supports aggregation group distribution statistics
for half and full-duplex, low and high speed interfaces.  Packet and
octets distributions are maintained in the dsmonStatsTable for each
active control row in the dsmonStatsControlTable.

This group provides the lowest statistics granularity in the DSMON MIB.
It is expected that a management application will analyze certain DS
deployment or performance problems by first examining the aggregation
group distribution for an entire data source with this group.

6.2.3.  DS Protocol Distribution Group

This group contains two tables for statistics collection,
(dsmonPdistCtlTable and dsmonPdistStatsTable), and two tables for a 'Top
N' reporting function for the collected statistics
(dsmonPdistTopNCtlTable and dsmonPdistTopNTable).

The dsmonPdistCtlTable and dsmonPdistStatsTable tables provide
aggregation group distribution statistics for each selected protocol
encapsulation in packets monitored on a particular dataSource.  Packet
and octets distributions (per aggregation group per protocol) are
maintained in the dsmonPdistStatsTable for each active control row in

Due the potentially large number of entries, the DS Protocol
Distribution is different from the RMON-2 protocol distribution group in
several ways:

  -  maximum desired entries parameter added to the control table

  -  inserts and deletes counters added to the control table

  -  support for LRU garbage collection in the dsmonPdistStatsTable

  -  TimeFilter index added to the dsmonPdistStatsTable

  -  the selection of protocols is not configurable.  Rather than select
     individual protocols to monitor, (e.g., via a 'supportedOn/Off'
     extension to the protocolDirTable [RFC 2021]), a simplified
     configuration mechanism is provided.  Since DSCP usage statistics
     are most interesting at the application layer, the
     dsmonPdistStatsTable is 'hardwired' to select only application
     layer (i.e., 'terminal') protocols for statistical analysis.

The TopN feature requires two additional tables: the
dsmonPdistTopNCtlTable and the dsmonPdistTopNTable, and supports
periodic usage reporting for the statistics maintained in the
dsmonPdistStatsTable.  This feature allows for simple periodic retrieval
of the most used application/aggregation group combinations.

6.2.4.  DS Host Distribution Group

This group contains two tables for statistics collection,
(dsmonHostCtlTable and dsmonHostTable), and two tables for a 'Top N'
reporting function for the collected statistics (dsmonHostTopNCtlTable
and dsmonHostTopNTable).

The dsmonHostCtlTable and dsmonHostTables provide host distribution
statistics for each aggregation group detected in packets monitored on a
particular dataSource.  The DSMON Host collection is similar to the
RMON-2 network layer host collection (nlHostTable). There is no DSMON
application host table defined at this time.

It is expected that a management application will analyze certain DS
deployment or performance problems by first determining the high
priority DSCP values to examine (beyond the scope of this document) and
then examining the dsmonHostTable or dsmonHostTopNTable statistics to
determine which hosts are using the selected aggregation groups.

Packet and octets distributions (in and out, per aggregation group per
host) are maintained in the dsmonHostTable for each active control row
in the dsmonHostCtlTable.

The DS Host Distribution is different from the RMON-2 network layer host
group in two ways:

  -  the protocolDirLocalIndex in the INDEX clause MUST identify a
     network protocol encapsulation which contains a DS field (e.g.,
     IPv4 or IPv6).  If a protocol encapsulation with multiple network
     layers is specified, then associated entries in this table refer to
     the innermost network protocol layer.

  -  the dsmonHostCtlTable supports limited IPv4 and IPv6 prefix
     aggregation by allowing the number of 'monitored address bits' in
     each address to be configured for each collection.  The agent will
     zero out the selected number of rightmost address bits for counting
     purposes. This configuration parameter can dramatically reduce the
     number of entries which must be maintained by the agent, which
     should reduce CPU and memory resource requirements on the agent,
     and reduce polling overhead on the network and the management
     station.  However, only one mask can be configured for each address
     type, rather than multiple different length masks for each address
     type, based on prefix value.

The TopN feature requires two additional tables: the
dsmonHostTopNCtlTable and the dsmonHostTopNTable.  and supports periodic
usage reporting for the statistics maintained in the dsmonHostTable.
This feature allows for simple periodic retrieval of the most used IP-
host/DSCP combinations.

6.2.5.  DSMON Capabilities Group

This group contains a single read-only scalar object, dsmonCapabilities,
which provides an indication the MIB groups within this MIB that the
agent supports.

6.2.6.  DS Matrix Distribution Group

This group contains three tables for statistics collection,
(dsmonMatrixCtlTable, dsmonMatrixSDTable, and dsmonMatrixDSTable), and
two tables for a 'Top N' reporting function for the collected statistics
(dsmonMatrixTopNCtlTable and dsmonMatrixTopNTable).

The dsmonMatrixCtlTable, dsmonMatrixSDTable, and dsmonMatrixDSTable

provide host-pair distribution statistics for each aggregation group
detected in packets monitored on a particular dataSource.  The DSMON
Matrix collection is similar to the RMON-2 application layer matrix
collection (alMatrixSDTable and alMatrixDSTable).  There is no DSMON
network layer matrix table defined at this time.

It is expected that a management application will analyze certain DS
deployment or performance problems by first determining the high
priority DSCP values to examine (beyond the scope of this document) and
then examining the dsmonMatrixSDTable, dsmonMatrixDSTable, and/or
dsmonMatrixTopNTable statistics to determine which host-pairs are using
the selected aggregation groups.

Packet and octets distributions (source to destination, per aggregation
group per host-pair) are maintained in the dsmonMatrixSDTable and
dsmonMatrixDSTable for each active control row in the
dsmonMatrixCtlTable.

The TopN feature requires two additional tables: the
dsmonMatrixTopNCtlTable and the dsmonMatrixTopNTable.  and supports
periodic usage reporting for the statistics maintained in the
dsmonMatrixSDTable.  This feature allows for simple periodic retrieval
of the most used IP-host-pair/DSCP combinations.

6.3.  RMON vs. DSMON Indexing Structure

The DSMON-MIB control and data tables are very similar in structure and
look-and-feel to existing RMON-2 and HC-RMON control tables for the
comparable feature, in order to maintain consistent agent behavior and
functionality across RMON MIBs.  The DSMON data tables are indexed as
closely as possible to the comparable RMON-2 or HC-RMON tables, with the
addition of an index component for DSCP-based classification (i.e.
dsmonAggGroup).  Refer to Table 1 for a comparison of DSMON indexing
structure with similar existing RMON features.

            This is intended to simplify the processing of Set Requests
            for tables such as the dsmonAggProfileTable, by eliminating
            the possibility that a single Set PDU will contain multiple
            varbinds which are in conflict, such as a PDU which both
            modifies the dsmonAggProfileTable and locks the
            dsmonAggProfileTable at the same time.

            Note that the agent is not required to validate the entire
            aggregation configuration when an attempt is made to
            transition an instance of this object from 'true' to
            'false'. That validation is done if and when a DSMON data
            collection is activated.

            An agent is required to reactivate any suspended data
            collections when this object transitions to 'true', Each
            active data control entry (e.g., dsmonStatsControlEntry),
            will be validated with respect to the new aggregation
            configuration. If the aggregation profile referenced in the
            data collection is valid, then that collection will be
            restarted. Otherwise, the RowStatus object (e.g.,
            dsmonStatsControlStatus) will be set to 'notReady' for that
            collection control entry."

            aggregation group configured for collection, and each
            protocol (as identified by the protocolDirLocalIndex for the
            protocol) identified in each monitored packet.

            The dsmonPdistCtlIndex value in the index identifies the
            dsmonPdistCtlEntry on whose behalf this entry was created.

            Note that only packets that contain a network protocol
            encapsulation which contains a DS field [RFC2474] will be
            counted in this table.

            The dsmonAggGroupIndex value in the index is determined by
            examining the DSCP value in each monitored packet, and the
            dsmonAggProfileTable entry for that value.

            The protocolDirLocalIndex in the index identifies the
            protocolDirEntry for the protocol encapsulation of each
            monitored packet.  The agent will include only application
            layer protocols in the associated dsmonPdistStatsTable. Any
            'terminal' protocol is considered to be an application

            aggregation group index configured for collection per host
            address, as identified in the dsmonAggProfileTable.

            The dsmonHostCtlIndex value in the index identifies the
            dsmonHostCtlEntry on whose behalf this entry was created.

            The protocolDirLocalIndex value in the index identifies the
            specific network layer protocol encapsulation associated
            with each entry, and the network protocol type of the
            dsmonHostAddress object.  It MUST identify a
            protocolDirEntry which contains a DS field (e.g., IPv4 or
            IPv6).  Note that if a protocol encapsulation with multiple
            network layers is specified, then associated entries in this
            table refer to the innermost network protocol layer host
            address.

            The dsmonAggGroupIndex value in the index is determined by
            examining the DSCP value in each monitored packet, and the
            dsmonAggProfileTable entry configured for that value.

            It is an implementation-specific matter whether an agent can
            detect an overflow condition resulting from the addition of
            two counter delta values for the following enumerations:

            In the event such an overflow condition can be detected by
            the agent, the associated dsmonHostTopNRate,
            dsmonHostTopNRateOvfl, and/or dsmonHostTopNHCRate objects
            should be set to their maximum value.

            This object MUST NOT be modified if the associated

            may simply read the resulting reports repeatedly, checking

8.  Aggregation Configuration Usage Examples

This section contains an example of the steps that may be followed by a
management station to configure the objects in the dsmonAggControlGroup.

A note about these examples:

   - they do not define a standard

   - an agent is not obligated to support them

   - a management application is not constrained by them

   - the SET(object = value [, ...]) notation is
     only conceptual, and is not meant to represent an actual SNMP Set
     PDU.

8.1.  Step 1: Unlock the Aggregation Configuration

Before any write operations to the tabular objects in this group can be
made, the aggregation configuration must be unlocked, by setting the
dsmonAggControlLocked scalar to false:

   SET(dsmonAggControlLocked.0 = false(2));


8.2.  Step 2: Check the Maximum number of Aggregation Groups

Make sure the desired aggregation groups have a chance of being
configured on the agent.

   maxGroups = GET(dsmonAggMaxAggGroups.0);

For this example, maxGroups is greater or equal to 64.

8.3.  Step 3: Check if the aggregation profiles already exist

Make sure the desired aggregation profiles have not already been
configured, or perhaps recreated after an agent restart.  The following
example is oversimplified, in that the entire aggregation configuration
should actually be verified.

   profile1Descr = GET(dsmonAggControlDescr.1);
   profile1Owner = GET(dsmonAggControlOwner.1);
   profile1Status = GET(dsmonAggControlStatus.1);

Internet Draft                  DSMON MIB                   October 2001


For this example, none of the aggregation profiles already exist.

8.4.  Step 4: Create the Aggregation Control Entries

The management station should create one entry in the
dsmonAggControlTable for each aggregation profile to be configured on
the agent.

Steps 4, 5, and 6 are repeated for each aggregation profile to be
configured on the agent. There are 3 example aggregation profiles shown
in each of these steps.

Example 1: Each DSCP in its own aggregation group

   SET(dsmonAggControlStatus.1 = createAndGo(4),
       dsmonAggControlOwner.1 = "Example App 1",
       dsmonAggControlDescr.1 = "1 DSCP Per Group");

Example 2: a collection of DIFFSERV PHBs.

   SET(dsmonAggControlStatus.2 = createAndGo(4),
       dsmonAggControlOwner.2 = "Example App 2",
       dsmonAggControlDescr.2 = "June 2000 DIFFSERV PHBs");

Example 3: an aggregated collection of DIFFSERV PHBs.

   SET(dsmonAggControlStatus.3 = createAndGo(4),
       dsmonAggControlOwner.3 = "Example App 3",
       dsmonAggControlDescr.3 = "Limited June 2000 PHBs");


8.5.  Step 5: Create the Aggregation Group Descriptions

Example 1: Each DSCP in its own aggregation group One group is created
for each codepoint, for a total of 64 rows.

   SET(dsmonAggGroupStatus.1.0 = createAndGo(4),
       dsmonAggGroupDescr.1.0 = "DSCP 0");
   SET(dsmonAggGroupStatus.1.1 = createAndGo(4),
       dsmonAggGroupDescr.1.1 = "DSCP 1");
   SET(dsmonAggGroupStatus.1.2 = createAndGo(4),
       dsmonAggGroupDescr.1.2 = "DSCP 2");
   SET(dsmonAggGroupStatus.1.3 = createAndGo(4),
       dsmonAggGroupDescr.1.3 = "DSCP 3");

   SET(dsmonAggGroupStatus.1.63 = createAndGo(4),
       dsmonAggGroupDescr.1.63 = "DSCP 63");

Example 2: a collection of current DIFFSERV PHBs.  One group is created
for each PHB to be monitored

   SET(dsmonAggGroupStatus.2.0 = createAndGo(4),
       dsmonAggGroupDescr.2.0 = "CS0");
   SET(dsmonAggGroupStatus.2.1 = createAndGo(4),
       dsmonAggGroupDescr.2.1 = "CS1");
   SET(dsmonAggGroupStatus.2.2 = createAndGo(4),
       dsmonAggGroupDescr.2.2 = "CS2");
   SET(dsmonAggGroupStatus.2.3 = createAndGo(4),
       dsmonAggGroupDescr.2.3 = "CS3");

   SET(dsmonAggGroupStatus.2.5 = createAndGo(4),

   SET(dsmonAggGroupStatus.2.21 = createAndGo(4),
       dsmonAggGroupDescr.2.21 = "Nonzero Default");

Example 3: an aggregated representation of current DIFFSERV PHBs.  One
group is created for each aggregation to be monitored (8 rows in this
example).

   SET(dsmonAggGroupStatus.3.0 = createAndGo(4),
       dsmonAggGroupDescr.3.0 = "Zero CS");
   SET(dsmonAggGroupStatus.3.1 = createAndGo(4),

   SET(dsmonAggGroupStatus.3.4 = createAndGo(4),

   SET(dsmonAggGroupStatus.3.7 = createAndGo(4),
       dsmonAggGroupDescr.3.7 = "Nonzero Default");


8.6.  Step 6: Create the Aggregation Profile Mappings

After the dsmonAggControlEntries are activated, the associated read-
write dsmonAggProfileEntries will be created.  The management station
must create 64 entries in the dsmonAggProfileTable for each aggregation
profile configured in the dsmonAggControlTable.

Example 1: Each DSCP in its own aggregation group

   SET(dsmonAggGroupIndex.1.0 = 0,
       dsmonAggGroupIndex.1.1 = 1,
       dsmonAggGroupIndex.1.2 = 2,
       dsmonAggGroupIndex.1.3 = 3,
       ...
       dsmonAggGroupIndex.1.63 = 63);

12.  Security Considerations

In order to implement this MIB, a probe must capture all packets on the
locally-attached network, including packets between third parties.
These packets are analyzed to collect network addresses, protocol usage
information, and conversation statistics. Data of this nature may be
considered sensitive in some environments. In such environments the
administrator may wish to restrict SNMP access to the probe.

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.

Internet Draft                  DSMON MIB                   October 2001


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 implementors consider the security features
as provided by the SNMPv3 framework.  Specifically, the use of the User-
based Security Model RFC 2574 [RFC2574] and the View-based Access
Control Model RFC 2575 [RFC2575] 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.
