Network Working Group B. Joshi Request for Comments: 5240 Infosys Technologies Ltd. Category: Standards Track R. Bijlani June 2008 Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM) Bootstrap Router MIB Status of This Memo This document specifies an Internet standards track protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the "Internet Official Protocol Standards" (STD 1) for the standardization state and status of this protocol. Distribution of this memo is unlimited. 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 used for managing the Bootstrap Router (BSR) mechanism for PIM (Protocol Independent Multicast). Table of Contents 1.

Introduction This memo 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 used for managing the Bootstrap Router (BSR) mechanism for PIM [RFC4601], [RFC5059]. This document was created by moving some of the PIM BSR-specific MIB tables from one of the earlier versions of PIM MIB [RFC5060]. 2. The Internet-Standard Management Framework For a detailed overview of the documents that describe the current Internet-Standard Management Framework, please refer to section 7 of RFC 3410 [RFC3410]. Managed objects are accessed via a virtual information store, termed the Management Information Base or MIB. MIB objects are generally accessed through the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). Objects in the MIB are defined using the mechanisms defined in the Structure of Management Information (SMI). This memo specifies a MIB module that is compliant to the SMIv2, which is described in STD 58, RFC 2578 [RFC2578], STD 58, RFC 2579 [RFC2579] and STD 58, RFC 2580 [RFC2580]. 3. Conventions 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]. 4. Overview This MIB module contains four tables. The tables are: 1. The Candidate-RP Table, which contains one row for each multicast group address prefix for which the local router is configured to advertise itself as a Candidate-RP (C-RP). This table exists on routers that are configured as Candidate-RP. 2. The Elected BSR RP-Set Table, which contains one row for each Group-to-RP mapping that was received in C-RP advertisements. This table exists on a router that is an elected BSR (E-BSR). 3. The Candidate-BSR Table, which contains one row for each Candidate-BSR configuration for the local router. This table exists on routers that are configured as Candidate-BSR. Joshi & Bijlani Standards Track [Page 2] RFC 5240 PIM BSR MIB June 2008 4. The Elected-BSR Table, which contains one row for each elected BSR. This table exists on a router that is an elected BSR. This MIB module uses textual conventions defined in the INET-ADDRESS- MIB [RFC4001]. 5.
