1. Abstract
This memo defines an experimental portion of the Management
Information Base (MIB) for use with network management protocols in
TCP/IP-based internets. In particular, it defines objects for
managing network repeaters based on IEEE 802.12.
2. Object Definitions
Management information is viewed as a collection of managed objects,
residing in a virtual information store, termed the Management
Information Base (MIB). Collections of related objects are defined
in MIB modules. MIB modules are written using a subset of Abstract
Syntax Notation One (ASN.1) [1] termed the Structure of Management
Information (SMI) [2]. 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 refer to the
object type.

Internet Draft IEEE 802.12 Repeater MIB December 18 1995
3. Overview
Instances of these object types represent attributes of an IEEE
802.12 repeater, as defined by Section 12, "RMAC Protocol" in IEEE
Standard 802.12-1995 [6].
The definitions presented here are based on Section 13, "Layer
management functions and services", and Annex C, "GDMO Specifications
for Demand Priority Managed Objects" of IEEE Standard 802.12-1995
[6]. Implementors of these MIB objects should note that the IEEE
document explicitly describes (in the form of Pascal pseudocode)
when, where, and how various repeater attributes are measured. The
IEEE document also describes the effects of repeater actions that may
be invoked by manipulating instances of the MIB objects defined here.
The counters in this document are defined to be the same as those
counters in IEEE Standard 802.12-1995, with the intention that the
same instrumentation can be used to implement both the IEEE and IETF
management standards.
3.1. MAC Addresses
All representations of MAC addresses in this MIB module are in
"canonical" order defined by 802.1a, i.e., as if it were transmitted
least significant bit first. This is true even if the repeater is
operating in token ring framing mode, which requires MAC addresses to
be transmitted most significant bit first.
John Flick Expires June 18, 1996 [Page 3]
Internet Draft IEEE 802.12 Repeater MIB December 18 1995
3.2. IEEE 802.12 Training Frames
Training frames are special MAC frames that are used only during link
initialization. Training frames are initially constructed by the
device at the lower end of a link. The training frame format is as
follows:
+----+----+------------+--------------+----------+-----+
| DA | SA | Req Config | Allow Config | Data | FCS |
+----+----+------------+--------------+----------+-----+
DA = destination address (six octets)
SA = source address (six octets)
Req Config = requested configuration (2 octets)
Allow Config = allowed configuration (2 octets)
Data = data (594 to 675 octets)
FCS = frame check sequence (4 octets)
Training frames are always sent with a null destination address. To
pass training, an end node must use its source address in the source
address field of the training frame. A repeater may use a non-null
source address if it has one, or it may use a null source address.
John Flick Expires June 18, 1996 [Page 4]
Internet Draft IEEE 802.12 Repeater MIB December 18 1995
The requested configuration field allows the device at the lower end
of a link to inform the device at the upper end of the link about
itself and to request configuration options. The training response
frame from the device at the upper end of the link contains the
requestor's requested configuration from the training request frame.
The currently defined format of the requested configuration field as
defined in the IEEE Standard 802.12-1995 standard is shown below.
Please refer to the most current version of the IEEE document for a
more up to date description of this field. In particular, the
reserved bits may be used in later versions of the standard.
First Octet: Second Octet:
7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
|v|v|v|r|r|r|r|r| |r|r|r|F|F|P|P|R|
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
vvv: The version of the 802.12 training protocol with which
the training initiator is compliant. The current version
is 100.
r: Reserved bits (set to zero)
FF: 00 = frameType88023
01 = frameType88025
10 = reserved
11 = frameTypeEither
PP: 00 = singleAddressMode
01 = promiscuousMode
10 = reserved
11 = reserved
R: 0 = the training initiator is an end node
1 = the training initiator is a repeater
John Flick Expires June 18, 1996 [Page 5]
Internet Draft IEEE 802.12 Repeater MIB December 18 1995
The allowed configuration field allows the training responder to
respond with the allowed configuration. The training initiator sets
the contents of this field to all zero bits. The training responder
sets the allowed configuration field as follows:
First Octet: Second Octet:
7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
|v|v|v|D|C|N|r|r| |r|r|r|F|F|P|P|R|
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
vvv: The version of the 802.12 training protocol with which
the training responder is compliant. The current version
is 100.
D: 0 = No duplicate address has been detected.
1 = Duplicate address has been detected
C: 0 = The requested configuration is compatible with the
network.
1 = The requested configuration is not compatible with
the network. In this case, the FF, PP, and R bits
indicate the configuration that would be allowed.
N: 0 = Access will be allowed, providing the configuration
is compatible (C = 0).
1 = Access is not granted because of security
restrictions
r: Reserved bits (set to zero)
FF: 00 = frameType88023 will be used
01 = frameType88025 will be used
10 = reserved
11 = reserved
PP: 00 = singleAddressMode
01 = promiscuousMode
10 = reserved
11 = reserved
R: 0 = Requested access as an end node is allowed
1 = Requested access as a repeater is allowed
Again, note that the most recent version of the IEEE 802.12 standard
should be consulted for the most up to date definition of the
requested configuration and allowed configuration fields.
The data field contains between 594 and 675 octets and is filled in
by the training initiator. The first 55 octets may be used for
vendor specific protocol information. The remaining octets are all
zeros. The length of the training frame combined with the
requirement that 24 consecutive training frames be received without
error to complete training ensures that marginal links will not

Internet Draft IEEE 802.12 Repeater MIB December 18 1995
complete training.
3.3. Structure of the MIB
Objects in this MIB are arranged into MIB groups. Each MIB group is
organized as a set of related objects.
3.3.1. The Basic Group Definitions
This group contains the objects which are applicable to all
repeaters. It contains status, parameter and control objects for
each repeater within the managed system, for the port groups within
the system, and for the individual ports themselves.
3.3.2. The Monitor Group Definitions
This group contains monitoring statistics for each repeater within
the system and for individual ports.
3.3.3. The Address Tracking Group Definitions
This group contains objects for tracking the MAC addresses of the
DTEs attached to the ports within the system.
3.4. Relationship to other MIBs
It is assumed that a repeater implementing this MIB will also
implement (at least) the 'system' group defined in MIB-II [5].
3.4.1. Relationship to the 'system' group
In MIB-II, the 'system' group is defined as being mandatory for all
systems such that each managed entity contains one instance of each
object in the 'system' group. Thus, those objects apply to the
entity even if the entity's sole functionality is management of
repeaters.
3.4.2. Relationship to the 'interfaces' group
In MIB-II, the 'interfaces' group is defined as being mandatory for
all systems and contains information on an entity's interfaces, where
each interface is thought of as being attached to a the Internet
suite of protocols.)
John Flick Expires June 18, 1996 [Page 7]
Internet Draft IEEE 802.12 Repeater MIB December 18 1995
This MIB uses the notion of ports on a repeater. The concept of a
MIB-II interface has NO specific relationship to a repeater's port.
Therefore, the 'interfaces' group applies only to the one (or more)
network interfaces on which the entity managing the repeater sends
and receives management protocol operations, and does not apply to
the repeater's ports.

specified in clause 12 [IEEE Std 802.12].
Setting this object to noReset(1) has no effect.
The agent will always return the value noReset(1)
when this object is read.
After receiving a request to set this variable to
reset(2), the agent is allowed to delay the reset
for a short period. For example, the implementor
may choose to delay the reset long enough to
allow the SNMP response to be transmitted. In
any event, the SNMP response must be transmitted.
This action does not reset the management
counters defined in this document nor does it
affect the vgRptrPortAdminStatus parameters.
Included in this action is the execution of a
disruptive Self-Test with the following
characteristics:
1) The nature of the tests is not specified.
2) The test resets the repeater but without
affecting configurable management
information about the repeater.
3) Packets received during the test may or
may not be transferred.
4) The test does not interfere with
management functions.
After performing this self-test, the agent will
update the repeater health information (including
vgRptrInfoOperStatus), and send a
vgRptrResetEvent."

Some ports may not be present in the system, in
which case the actual number of ports present will

DESCRIPTION
"This configuration flag is used to select either
bundled or unbundled cabling. When this flag is
'someCablesBundled(1)' and the port is not
promiscuous or cascaded, frames received from
ports on this group and destined to go out
multiple ports on this group will be buffered
completely before being repeated out ports on
this group. When this flag is
'noCablesBundled(2)' or the port is promiscuous
or cascaded, these frames will be repeated out
ports on this group as the frame is being
received.
Note that the value 'someCablesBundled(1)' will
work in the vast majority of all installations,
regardless of whether or not any cables are
physically in a bundle, since promiscuous and
cascaded ports automatically avoid the store and
forward. The main situation in which
'noCablesBundled(2)' is beneficial is when there
is a large amount of multicast traffic and the

The agent must reject a SET of this object if the
value includes no capabilities that are
supported by this port's hardware, as defined by
the values of the corresponding instances of
vgRptrPortSupportedPromiscMode and
vgRptrPortSupportedCascadeMode.
Note that vgRptrPortSupportPromiscMode and
vgRptrPortSupportedCascadeMode represent what the
port hardware is capable of supporting.
vgRptrPortAllowedTrainType is used for setting an
administrative policy for a port. The actual set
of training configurations that will be allowed
to succeed on a port is the intersection of what
the hardware will support and what is
administratively allowed. The above requirement
on what values may be set to this object says that
the intersection of what is supported and what is
allowed must be non-empty. In other words, it
must not result in a situation in which nothing
would be allowed to train on that port. However,
a value can be set to this object as long as the
combination of this object and what is supported
by the hardware would still leave at least one
configuration that could successfully train on the
port."

vgRptrAddrSearchTable OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX SEQUENCE OF VgRptrAddrSearchEntry
MAX-ACCESS not-accessible
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"This table contains one entry per repeater in the
system. It defines objects which allow a network
management application to instruct an agent to
watch for a given MAC address and report which
port it was seen on. Only one address search can
be in progress on each repeater at any one time.
Before starting an address search, a management
application should obtain 'ownership' of the entry
in vgRptrAddrSearchTable for the repeater that is
to perform the search. This is accomplished with
the vgRptrAddrSearchLock and
vgRptrAddrSearchStatus as follows:
try_again:
get(vgRptrAddrSearchLock,
vgRptrAddrSearchStatus)
while (vgRptrAddrSearchStatus != notInUse)
{
/* Wait for objects to be available */
short delay
get(vgRptrAddrSearchLock,
vgRptrAddrSearchStatus)
John Flick Expires June 18, 1996 [Page 39]
Internet Draft IEEE 802.12 Repeater MIB December 18 1995
}
/* Try to claim map objects */
lock_value = vgRptrAddrSearchLock
if ( set(vgRptrAddrSearchLock = lock_value,
vgRptrAddrSearchStatus = inUse,
vgRptrAddrSearchOwner = 'my-address')
== FAILURE)
/* Another manager got the lock */
goto try_again
/* I have the lock */
set(vgRptrAddrSearchAddress = <search target>)
wait for vgRptrAddrSearchState to change from
none
if (vgRptrAddrASearchState == single)
get (vgRptrAddrSearchGroup,
vgRptrAddrSearchPort)
/* release the lock, making sure not to
overwrite anyone else's lock */
set (vgRptrAddrSearchLock = lock_value+1,
vgRptrAddrSearchStatus = notInUse,
vgRptrAddrSearchOwner = '')
A management station first retrieves the values of
the appropriate instances of the
vgRptrAddrSearchLock and vgRptrAddrSearchStatus
objects, periodically repeating the retrieval if
necessary, until the value of
vgRptrAddrSearchStatus is 'notInUse'. The
management station then tries to set the same
instance of the vgRptrAddrSearchLock object to the
value it just retrieved, the same instance of the
vgRptrAddrSearchStatus object to 'inUse', and the
corresponding instance of vgRptrAddrSearchOwner to
a value indicating itself. If the set operation
succeeds, then the management station has obtained
ownership of the vgRptrAddrSearchEntry, and the
value of vgRptrAddrSearchLock is incremented by
the agent (as per the semantics of TestAndIncr).
Failure of the set operation indicates that some
other manager has obtained ownership of the
vgRptrAddrSearchEntry.
Once ownership is obtained, the management station
John Flick Expires June 18, 1996 [Page 40]
Internet Draft IEEE 802.12 Repeater MIB December 18 1995
can proceed with the search operation. Note that
the agent will reset vgRptrAddrSearchStatus to
'notInUse' if it has been in the 'inUse' state
for an abnormally long period of time, to prevent
a misbehaving manager from permanently locking the
entry. It is suggested that this timeout period
be between one and five minutes.
When the management station has completed its
search operation, it should free the entry by
setting the instance of the vgRptrAddrSearchLock
object to the previous value + 1, the instance of
the vgRptrAddrSearchStatus to 'notInUse', and the
instance of vgRptrAddrSearchOwner to a zero length
string. This is done to prevent overwriting
another station's lock."

not be informed of the duplicate address until it
retrains for some reason. Note that regardless
of its station address, the end station will not
be able to train successfully until the network
management software has set this object back to
'false'. Although this object exists on

since this repeater is the initiator of training
