Task Force (IETF), its areas, and its working groups. Note that
other groups may also distribute working documents as Internet-
Drafts.
Internet-Drafts are draft documents valid for a maximum of six months

2. Abstract
This memo defines an experimental portion of the Management
Information Base (MIB) for use with network management protocols in
the Internet community. In particular, it describes managed objects
for Traffic Engineered Tunnels, for example, Multi-Protocol Label
Switched Paths ([1], [2]).

3. Introduction
This memo defines an experimental portion of the Management
Information Base (MIB) for use with network management protocols in
the Internet community. In particular, it describes managed objects
for Traffic Engineered Tunnels, for example, Multi-Protocol Label
Switched Paths ([1], [2]).
4. The SNMP Network Management Framework
The SNMP Management Framework presently consists of five major
components:
o An overall architecture, described in RFC 2571 [3].
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 [4], STD 16, RFC 1212 [5] and RFC 1215 [6].
The second version, called SMIv2, is described in STD 58, which
consists of RFC 2578 [7], RFC 2579 [8] and RFC 2580 [9].
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 [10]. A second version of the
SNMP message protocol, which is not an Internet standards track
protocol, is called SNMPv2c and described in RFC 1901 [11] and
RFC 1906 [12]. The third version of the message protocol is
called SNMPv3 and described in RFC 1906 [12], RFC 2572 [13] and
RFC 2574 [14].
o Protocol operations for accessing management information. The
first set of protocol operations and associated PDU formats is
described in STD 15, RFC 1157 [10]. A second set of protocol
operations and associated PDU formats is described in RFC 1905
[15].
o A set of fundamental applications described in RFC 2573 [16]
and the view-based access control mechanism described in RFC
2575 [17].
A more detailed introduction to the current SNMP Management Framework
can be found in RFC 2570 [18].
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.
draft-ietf-tewg-mib-00.txt [Page 2]
Internet Draft draft-ietf-tewg-mib-00.txt September 2000
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 (e.g., 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.
4.1. Object Definitions
Managed objects are accessed via a virtual information store, termed
the Management Information Base or MIB. Objects in the MIB are
defined using the subset of Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1)
defined in the SMI. In particular, each object type is named by an
OBJECT IDENTIFIER, an administratively assigned name. The object
type together with an object instance serves to uniquely identify a
specific instantiation of the object. For human convenience, we
often use a textual string, termed the descriptor, to also refer to
the object type.
5. Overview of the MIB
The Traffic Engineering MIB consists of two parts:
1) Traffic Engineering information; and
2) information about Traffic Tunnels.
The following subsections give an overview of each part.
Note that currently, the MIB is organised as a read-only MIB. At
some future point, some of the information may be writable, i.e.,
configurable through SNMP.
5.1. Traffic Engineering Information
This part contains information about the Link State Protocols used to
carry TE information, the signalling protocols used to set up Traffic
Tunnels, the number of Traffic Tunnels that have been configured and
that are operational, and a mapping of Administrative Group numbers
to names.
draft-ietf-tewg-mib-00.txt [Page 3]
Internet Draft draft-ietf-tewg-mib-00.txt September 2000
5.2. Traffic Tunnel Information
This part contains a list of Traffic Tunnels and information about
each one. This information includes the Trunk name, its
configuration information, its operational information, as well as
information about the paths defined for the Traffic Tunnel.
Configuration information includes the end points of the Traffic
Tunnel, and the number of configured paths for the Traffic Tunnel.
Operational information includes the current state (up/down), the
count of octets and packets sent on the Traffic Tunnel, how long it
has been up, and how many state transitions the Traffic Tunnel has
had.
Path information includes the name, the Explicit Route, the
bandwidth, the setup and hold priorities, the Administrative Group
constraints, and the Class of Service (CoS).
Operational path information includes the Recorded Route, the number
of operational paths, the number of path changes, and when the last
path change was.
