Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) E. Beili Request for Comments: 7124 Actelis Networks Updates: 5066 February 2014 Category: Standards Track ISSN: 2070-1721 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. Status of This Memo This is an Internet Standards Track document. This document is a product of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). It represents the consensus of the IETF community. It has received public review and has been approved for publication by the Internet Engineering Steering Group (IESG). Further information on Internet Standards is available in Section 2 of RFC 5741.

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.

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]. The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119 [RFC2119]. 3.
