Ethernet in the First Mile Copper (EFMCu) Interfaces MIB
Abstract
This document updates RFC 5066. It amends that specification by
informing the Internet community about the transition of the
EFM-CU-MIB module from the concluded IETF Ethernet Interfaces and Hub
MIB Working Group to the Institute of Electrical and Electronics
Engineers (IEEE) 802.3 working group.

1. Introduction
RFC 5066 [RFC5066] defines two MIB modules:
EFM-CU-MIB, with a set of objects for managing 10PASS-TS and
2BASE-TL Ethernet in the First Mile Copper (EFMCu) interfaces;
IF-CAP-STACK-MIB, with a set of objects describing cross-connect
capability of a managed device with multi-layer (stacked)
interfaces, extending the stack management objects in the
Interfaces Group MIB and the Inverted Stack Table MIB modules.
With the conclusion of the [HUBMIB] working group, the responsibility
for the maintenance and further development of a MIB module for
managing 2BASE-TL and 10PASS-TS interfaces has been transferred to
the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802.3
[IEEE802.3] working group. In 2011, the IEEE developed the
IEEE8023-EFM-CU-MIB module, based on the original EFM-CU-MIB module
[RFC5066]. The current revision of IEEE8023-EFM-CU-MIB is defined in
IEEE Std 802.3.1-2013 [IEEE802.3.1].
The IEEE8023-EFM-CU-MIB and EFM-CU-MIB MIB modules can coexist.
Existing deployments of the EFM-CU-MIB need not be upgraded, but
operators using the MIB should expect that new equipment will use the
IEEE8023-EFM-CU-MIB.
Please note that the IF-CAP-STACK-MIB module was not transferred to
IEEE and remains as defined in RFC 5066. This memo provides an
updated security considerations section for that module, since the
original RFC did not list any security considerations for
IF-CAP-STACK-MIB.
