RFC 7453 MPLS-TP MIB February 2015
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 additional textual conventions and
managed objects for tunnels, identifiers, and Label Switching Routers
to support Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) MIB modules for
transport networks. MIB modules defined in this document extend the
existing MPLS MIB objects in such a way that they support the MPLS
Transport Profile (MPLS-TP) but also other MPLS networks. Hence,
"MPLS-TP" is not included in the MIB module names.
As described in the MPLS Traffic Engineering (TE) MIB definition
[RFC3812], MPLS traffic engineering is concerned with the creation
and management of MPLS tunnels. This term is a shorthand for a
combination of one or more LSPs linking an ingress and an egress LSR.
Several types of point-to-point MPLS tunnels may be constructed
between a pair of LSRs A and B:
- Unidirectional with a single LSP (say, from A to B).
- Associated bidirectional consisting of two separately routed
LSPs, one linking A to B and the other linking B to A.
Together, the pair provides a single logical bidirectional
transport path.
- Co-routed bidirectional consisting of an associated
bidirectional tunnel but with the second LSP from B to A
following the reverse of the path of the LSP from A to B, in
terms of both nodes and links.
Tunnels may be either statically configured by management action or
dynamically created using an LSP management protocol.
The existing MPLS TE MIB [RFC3812] and the GMPLS TE MIB [RFC4802]
address only a subset of the combinations of statically and
dynamically configured tunnel types, catering to statically
configured unidirectional tunnels together with dynamically
configured unidirectional and co-routed bidirectional tunnels. They
are also restricted to two endpoint LSRs identified by IP addresses.
The MPLS-TP TE MIB defined in this document extends the MIB modules
defined in [RFC3812] to cover all six combinations (that is, adding
support for statically configured associated and co-routed
bidirectional plus dynamically configured associated bidirectional
tunnels). It also extends support to endpoints that have identifiers
other than IP addresses.
Venkatesan, et al. Standards Track [Page 4]
RFC 7453 MPLS-TP MIB February 2015
This support is provided by a suite of four MIB modules that are to
be used in conjunction with the MIB modules defined in [RFC3812] and
the companion document [RFC3813] for MPLS-TP tunnel management.
At the time of writing, SNMP SET is no longer recommended as a way to
configure MPLS networks as described in [RFC3812]. However, since
the MIB modules specified in this document extend and are intended to
work in parallel with the MIB modules for MPLS specified in
[RFC3812], certain objects defined here are specified with MAX-ACCESS
of read-write or read-create so that specifications of the base
tables in [RFC3812] and the extensions in this document are
consistent. Although the examples described in Section 9 specify
means to configure MPLS-TP Tunnels in a similar way to the examples
in [RFC3812], this should be seen as indicating how the MIB values
would be returned if the specified circumstances were configured by
alternative means.
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].

3.2. Terminology
This document uses terminology from the "Multiprotocol Label
Switching Architecture" [RFC3031], "Multiprotocol Label Switching
(MPLS) Traffic Engineering (TE) Management Information Base (MIB)"
[RFC3812], "Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) Label Switching
Router (LSR) Management Information Base (MIB)" [RFC3813], and"MPLS
Transport Profile (MPLS-TP) Identifiers" [RFC6370].

LSR: Label Switching Router
MPLS-TP: MPLS Transport Profile
TE: Traffic Engineering
TP: Transport Profile
4. Motivations
"Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) Traffic Engineering (TE)
Management Information Base (MIB)" [RFC3812] provides support for
Traffic Engineering tunnels. In MPLS, the actual transport of
packets is provided by Label Switched Paths (LSPs). A transport
service may be composed of multiple LSPs. In order to clearly
identify the MPLS-TP service, as defined in [RFC6370], we use the
term "MPLS-TP Tunnel" or simply "tunnel". However, with MPLS-TP, the
characteristics of the tunnels were enhanced. For example, MPLS-TP
Tunnels are bidirectional in nature and could be used with non-IP
identifiers for the tunnel endpoints. As the existing
MPLS-TE-STD-MIB and GMPLS-TE-STD-MIB were defined mainly to support
unidirectional tunnels and signaled co-routed bidirectional tunnel
definitions, respectively, these existing MIB modules are not
sufficient to capture all the characteristics of the tunnels. Hence,
enhancing the MIB modules to support MPLS-TP Tunnels is required. As
most of the attributes of MPLS Traffic Engineering tunnels are also
applicable to MPLS-TP Tunnels, it is optimal to reuse and extend the
existing MIB module definition instead of defining a new MIB module.
This document defines four additional MIB modules, namely,
MPLS-TE-EXT-STD-MIB, MPLS-TC-EXT-STD-MIB, MPLS-ID-STD-MIB, and
MPLS-LSR-EXT-STD-MIB. As these additional MIB modules are required
for MPLS-TP functionality, these are all defined in this document,
instead of being documented separately.
Venkatesan, et al. Standards Track [Page 6]
RFC 7453 MPLS-TP MIB February 2015
5. Feature List
The MIBs in this document satisfy the following requirements and
constraints:
The MIB modules, taken together, support statically configured and
dynamically signaled point-to-point, co-routed bidirectional and
associated bidirectional tunnels.
- The MPLS tunnels need not be interfaces, but it is possible to
configure an MPLS-TP Tunnel as an interface. The same ifType
150, as defined in Section 8 of [RFC3812], will be used for
MPLS-TP Tunnels as well.
- The mplsTunnelTable [RFC3812] is also to be used for MPLS-TP
Tunnels.
- New MPLS-TP-specific textual conventions and identifiers are
required.
- The mplsTunnelTable is sparsely extended to support objects
specific to MPLS-TP Tunnels.
- A node configuration table (mplsTunnelExtNodeConfigTable), as
detailed in Section 6.2.1, below, is used to translate the
Global_ID::Node_ID or ICC_Operator_ID::Node_ID to the local
identifier in order to index the mplsTunnelTable.
- The mplsXCTable is sparsely extended to support objects specific
to MPLS-TP XC (Cross Connect).
- The MIB module supports persistent, as well as non-persistent,
tunnels.
6. Outline
Traffic Engineering support for the MPLS-TP Tunnels requires the
setup of the co-routed or associated bidirectional tunnel. The
tables and MIB modules that are mentioned in the below subsections
support the functionality described in [RFC5654] and [RFC6370].
These tables support both IP-compatible and ICC-based tunnel
configurations.
Figure 1, below, depicts how the table references are followed in
this MIB.

6.1. MIB Module Extensions
Four MIB modules are extended to support MPLS-TP Tunnels, namely,
MPLS-TE-EXT-STD-MIB, MPLS-TC-EXT-STD-MIB, MPLS-ID-STD-MIB, and
MPLS-LSR-EXT-STD-MIB. The following section provides the summary of
changes.
6.1.1. Summary of MIB Module Changes
- Node configuration table (mplsTunnelExtNodeConfigTable) for setting
the local identifier for Tunnel Ingress and Egress identifiers.
- Node IP map table (mplsTunnelExtNodeIpMapTable) for querying the
local identifier for a given Global_ID and Node_ID.
- Node ICC map table (mplsTunnelExtNodeIccMapTable) for querying the
local identifier for a given ICC_Operator_ID and Node_ID.
- Tunnel extension table (mplsTunnelExtTable) for setting up MPLS-TP
Tunnels with sparse extension of mplsTunnelTable.
- Textual conventions and object definitions for MPLS-TP Tunnels.
- Cross-connect extension table (mplsXCExtTable) for setting up the
MPLS-TP LSPs.
These tables are described in the subsequent sections.
Venkatesan, et al. Standards Track [Page 8]
RFC 7453 MPLS-TP MIB February 2015
6.2. MPLS-TE-EXT-STD-MIB
The TE MIB module extensions and details of the tables are
described in the following sections.
6.2.1. mplsTunnelExtNodeConfigTable
The mplsTunnelExtNodeConfigTable is used to assign a local identifier
for a given ICC_Operator_ID::Node_ID or Global_ID::Node_ID
combination as defined in [RFC6923] and [RFC6370], respectively. The
CC is a string of two characters, each being an uppercase Basic Latin
alphabetic (i.e., A-Z). The ICC is a string of one to six
characters, each an uppercase Basic Latin alphabetic (i.e., A-Z) or
numeric (i.e., 0-9). All of the characters are encoded using [T.50]
as described in [RFC6370].
In the IP-compatible mode, Global_ID::Node_ID, is used to uniquely
identify a node. For each ICC_Operator_ID::Node_ID or
Global_ID::Node_ID, there is a unique entry in the table representing
a node. As the regular TE tunnels use the IP address as the LSR ID,
the local identifier should be below the first valid IP address,
which is 16777216[1.0.0.0]. Every node is assigned a local
identifier within a range of 0 to 16777215. This local identifier is
used for indexing into mplsTunnelTable as mplsTunnelIngressLSRId and
mplsTunnelEgressLSRId.
For IP-compatible environments, an MPLS-TP Tunnel is indexed by
Tunnel Index, Tunnel Instance, Source Global_ID, Source Node_ID,
Destination Global_ID, and Destination Node_ID.
For ICC-based environments, an MPLS-TP Tunnel is indexed by Tunnel
Index, Tunnel Instance, Source CC, Source ICC, Source Node_ID,
Destination CC, Destination ICC, and Destination Node_ID.
As mplsTunnelTable is indexed by mplsTunnelIndex, mplsTunnelInstance,
mplsTunnelIngressLSRId, and mplsTunnelEgressLSRId, the MPLS-TP tunnel
identifiers cannot be used directly.
The mplsTunnelExtNodeConfigTable will be used to store an entry for
ICC_Operator_ID::Node_ID or Global_ID::Node_ID with a local
identifier to be used as the LSR ID in mplsTunnelTable.
6.2.2. mplsTunnelExtNodeIpMapTable
The read-only mplsTunnelExtNodeIpMapTable is used to query the local
identifier assigned and stored in mplsTunnelExtNodeConfigTable for a
given Global_ID::Node_ID. In order to query the local identifier, in
Venkatesan, et al. Standards Track [Page 9]
RFC 7453 MPLS-TP MIB February 2015
the IP-compatible mode, this table is indexed with
Global_ID::Node_ID. In the IP-compatible mode for a TP tunnel,
Global_ID::Node_ID is used.
A separate query is made to get the local identifier of both Ingress
and Egress Global_ID::Node_ID identifiers. These local identifiers
are used as mplsTunnelIngressLSRId and mplsTunnelEgressLSRId when
indexing mplsTunnelTable.
6.2.3. mplsTunnelExtNodeIccMapTable
The read-only mplsTunnelExtNodeIccMapTable is used to query the local
identifier assigned and stored in the mplsTunnelExtNodeConfigTable
for a given ICC_Operator_ID::Node_ID.
A separate query is made to get the local identifier of both Ingress
and Egress ICC_Operator_ID::Node_ID. These local identifiers are
used as mplsTunnelIngressLSRId and mplsTunnelEgressLSRId when
indexing mplsTunnelTable.
6.2.4. mplsTunnelExtTable
This table sparsely extends the mplsTunnelTable in order to support
MPLS-TP Tunnels with additional objects. All the additional
attributes specific to supporting a TP tunnel are contained in this
extended table and could be accessed with the mplsTunnelTable
indices.
The gmplsTunnelReversePerfTable [RFC4802] should be used to provide
per-tunnel packet performance information for the reverse direction
of a bidirectional tunnel. It can be seen as supplementing the
mplsTunnelPerfTable, which augments the mplsTunnelTable.
6.3. MPLS-TC-EXT-STD-MIB
This MIB module contains textual conventions for LSPs of MPLS-based
transport networks.
6.4. MPLS-ID-STD-MIB
This MIB module contains identifier object definitions for MPLS
Traffic Engineering in transport networks.
Venkatesan, et al. Standards Track [Page 10]
RFC 7453 MPLS-TP MIB February 2015
6.5. MPLS-LSR-EXT-STD-MIB
This MIB module contains generic object definitions (including the
mplsXCExtTable -- cross-connect extension table -- for setting up the
MPLS-TP LSPs with sparse extension of mplsXCTable) for MPLS LSRs in
transport networks.
6.6. The Use of RowPointer
This document follows the RowPointer usage as described in Section 10
of [RFC3812].
A new RowPointer object, mplsTunnelExtOppositeDirPtr, is added to
mplsTunnelExtTable of MPLS-TE-EXT-STD-MIB module. This RowPointer
object points to the tunnel entry in the opposite direction.
Two additional RowPointers objects, mplsXCExtTunnelPointer and
mplsXCExtOppositeDirXCPtr, are added to the mplsXCExtTable of
MPLS-LSR-EXT-STD-MIB. The RowPointer mplsXCExtTunnelPointer is a
read-only object used to indicate the back pointer to the tunnel
entry. The RowPointer mplsXCExtOppositeDirXCPtr object points to the
opposite-direction XC entry.
If either of these RowPointers return zeroDotZero, it implies that
there is no entry associated with the RowPointer object.
7. MIB Modules' Interdependencies
This section provides an overview of the relationships between the
MPLS-TP TE MIB module and other MPLS MIB modules.
The arrows in the following diagram show a "depends on" relationship.
A relationship of "MIB module A depends on MIB module B" means that
MIB module A uses an object, object identifier, or textual convention
defined in MIB module B, or that MIB module A contains a pointer
(index or RowPointer) to an object in MIB module B.

Figure 2: MIB Modules' Interdependencies
Thus:
- All the new MPLS extension MIB modules depend on
MPLS-TC-EXT-STD-MIB.
- MPLS-ID-STD-MIB contains references to objects in
MPLS-TE-STD-MIB [RFC3812].
- MPLS-TE-EXT-STD-MIB contains references to objects in
MPLS-TE-STD-MIB [RFC3812].
- MPLS-LSR-EXT-STD-MIB contains references to objects in
MPLS-LSR-STD-MIB [RFC3813].
The mplsTunnelExtTable sparsely extends the mplsTunnelTable of
MPLS-TE-STD-MIB [RFC3812]. This helps in associating the reverse-
direction tunnel information.
The mplsXCExtTable sparsely extends the mplsXCTable of
MPLS-LSR-STD-MIB [RFC3813]. This helps in pointing back to the
tunnel entry for easy tunnel access from the XC entry.
Note that all of the MIB modules shown above in the figure also have
a dependency on MPLS-TC-STD-MIB.
Venkatesan, et al. Standards Track [Page 12]
RFC 7453 MPLS-TP MIB February 2015
8. Dependencies between MIB Module Tables
The tables in MPLS-TE-EXT-STD-MIB are related as shown on the diagram
below. The arrows indicate a reference from one table to another.

An existing mplsTunnelTable uses the mplsTunnelExtNodeConfigTable
table to map the Global_ID::Node_ID and/or ICC_Operator_ID::Node_ID
with the local number in order to accommodate in the existing tunnel
table's ingress/egress LSR ID.
The new mplsTunnelExtTable provides the reverse-direction LSP
information for the existing tunnel table so that bidirectional LSPs
can be created.
The mplsXCExtTable sparsely extends the mplsLsrXCTable to provide
backward reference to tunnel entry.
9. Example of MPLS-TP Tunnel Setup
In this section, we provide an example of configuring MPLS-TP
bidirectional tunnels with IP tunnel identifiers. This example
provides the usage of the MPLS-TP Tunnel MIB along with the extended
MIB modules introduced in this document.
Venkatesan, et al. Standards Track [Page 13]
RFC 7453 MPLS-TP MIB February 2015
Do note that a MPLS-TP Tunnel could be set up statically as well as
signaled via the control plane. This example considers accessing MIB
objects on a head-end for static and signaled MPLS-TP Tunnels. This
section shows the configuration of the forward- and reverse-direction
MPLS-TP LSPs that run between East and West, and vice versa. Only
objects relevant to MPLS-TP Tunnels are illustrated here.
In mplsTunnelExtNodeConfigTable:
{
-- Non-IP Ingress LSR_ID (Index to the table)
mplsTunnelExtNodeConfigLocalId = 1,
mplsTunnelExtNodeConfigGlobalId = 1234,
mplsTunnelExtNodeConfigNodeId = 10,
-- Mandatory parameters needed to activate the row go here
mplsTunnelExtNodeConfigRowStatus = createAndGo (4)
-- Non-IP Egress LSR ID (Index to the table)
mplsTunnelExtNodeConfigLocalId = 2,
mplsTunnelExtNodeConfigGlobalId = 1234,
mplsTunnelExtNodeConfigNodeId = 20,
-- Mandatory parameters needed to activate the row go here
mplsTunnelExtNodeConfigRowStatus = createAndGo (4)
}
This will create an entry in the mplsTunnelExtNodeConfigTable for a
Global_ID::Node_ID. The Ingress and Egress LSR are represented by
separate entries.
The following read-only mplsTunnelExtNodeIpMapTable table is
populated automatically upon creating an entry in
mplsTunnelExtNodeConfigTable, and this table is used to retrieve the
local identifier for the given Global_ID::Node_ID.
In mplsTunnelExtNodeIpMapTable:
{
-- Global_ID (Index to the table)
mplsTunnelExtNodeIpMapGlobalId = 1234,
-- Node Identifier (Index to the table)
mplsTunnelExtNodeIpMapNodeId = 10,
mplsTunnelExtNodeIpMapLocalId = 1
-- Global_ID (Index to the table)
mplsTunnelExtNodeIpMapGlobalId = 1234,
Venkatesan, et al. Standards Track [Page 14]
RFC 7453 MPLS-TP MIB February 2015
-- Node Identifier (Index to the table)
mplsTunnelExtNodeIpMapNodeId = 20,
mplsTunnelExtNodeIpMapLocalId = 2
}
9.1. Example of MPLS-TP Static Co-routed Bidirectional Tunnel Setup
The following denotes the co-routed bidirectional tunnel "head"
entry.
9.1.1. mplsTunnelEntry
In mplsTunnelTable:
{
mplsTunnelIndex = 1,
mplsTunnelInstance = 1,
-- Local map number created in mplsTunnelExtNodeConfigTable for
-- Ingress LSR ID
mplsTunnelIngressLSRId = 1,
-- Local map number created in mplsTunnelExtNodeConfigTable for

9.1.2. mplsTunnelExtEntry
-- An MPLS extension table
In mplsTunnelExtTable:
{
-- This opposite-direction tunnel pointer may point to 0.0
-- if co-routed bidirectional tunnel is managed by single tunnel
-- entry
mplsTunnelExtOppositeDirTnlPtr = 0.0
-- Set both the Ingress and Egress LocalId objects to TRUE, as
-- this tunnel entry uses the local identifiers.
mplsTunnelExtIngressLSRLocalIdValid = true,
mplsTunnelExtEgressLSRLocalIdValid = true
}
Next, we must create the appropriate in-segment and out-segment
entries. These are done in [RFC3813] using the mplsInSegmentTable
and mplsOutSegmentTable.
9.1.3. Forward-Direction mplsOutSegmentEntry
For the forward direction:
In mplsOutSegmentTable:
{
mplsOutSegmentIndex = 0x0000001,
mplsOutSegmentInterface = 13, -- outgoing interface
mplsOutSegmentPushTopLabel = true(1),
mplsOutSegmentTopLabel = 22, -- outgoing label
-- RowPointer MUST point to the first accessible column.
mplsOutSegmentTrafficParamPtr = 0.0,
mplsOutSegmentRowStatus = createAndGo (4)
}
9.1.4. Reverse-Direction mplsInSegmentEntry

{
mplsInSegmentIndex = 0x0000001
mplsInSegmentLabel = 21, -- incoming label
mplsInSegmentNPop = 1,
mplsInSegmentInterface = 13, -- incoming interface
Venkatesan, et al. Standards Track [Page 16]
RFC 7453 MPLS-TP MIB February 2015
-- RowPointer MUST point to the first accessible column.
mplsInSegmentTrafficParamPtr = 0.0,
mplsInSegmentRowStatus = createAndGo (4)
}
Next, two cross-connect entries are created in the mplsXCTable of the
MPLS-LSR-STD-MIB [RFC3813], thereby associating the newly created
segments together.
9.1.5. Forward-Direction mplsXCEntry
In mplsXCTable:
{
mplsXCIndex = 0x01,
mplsXCInSegmentIndex = 0x00000000,
mplsXCOutSegmentIndex = 0x00000001,
mplsXCLspId = 0x0102 -- unique ID

mplsXCLabelStackIndex = 0x00,
mplsXCRowStatus = createAndGo(4)
}

mplsXCLspId = 0x0102 -- unique ID
-- only a single outgoing label
mplsXCLabelStackIndex = 0x00,
mplsXCRowStatus = createAndGo(4)
}
This table entry is extended by an entry in the mplsXCExtTable. Note
that the nature of the 'extends' relationship is a sparse
augmentation so that the entry in the mplsXCExtTable has the same
index values as the entry in the mplsXCTable.
Venkatesan, et al. Standards Track [Page 17]

{
-- Back pointer from XC table to Tunnel table
mplsXCExtTunnelPointer = mplsTunnelName.1.1.1.2
mplsXCExtOppositeDirXCPtr =
mplsXCLspId.4.0.0.0.1.4.0.0.0.1.1.0
}
9.1.8. Reverse-Direction mplsXCExtEntry
Next, for the reverse direction:
In mplsXCExtTable (0x01, 0x00000001, 0x00000000)
{

mplsXCExtTunnelPointer = mplsTunnelName.1.1.1.2
mplsXCExtOppositeDirXCPtr =
mplsXCLspId.4.0.0.0.1.1.0.4.0.0.0.1
}
9.2. Example of MPLS-TP Static Associated Bidirectional Tunnel Setup
The MPLS-TP associated bidirectional tunnel is implemented by two
different unidirectional tunnels (Forward and Reverse LSPs), and
these are associated together using mplsTunnelExtTable. Two
different tunnel entries to provide the forward and reverse
directions MAY be used for co-routed bidirectional tunnels as well.
The following denotes the associated bidirectional forward tunnel
"head" entry:

}
9.2.2. Forward-Direction mplsTunnelExtEntry
For the associated bidirectional forward LSP,
in mplsTunnelExtTable:

-- Mandatory parameters needed to activate the row go here
mplsTunnelRowStatus = createAndGo (4)
}
Venkatesan, et al. Standards Track [Page 21]
RFC 7453 MPLS-TP MIB February 2015
9.2.7. Reverse-Direction mplsTunnelExtEntry
For the associated bidirectional reverse LSP,
in mplsTunnelExtTable:
{

}
9.2.8. Reverse-Direction mplsInSegmentEntry
Next, we must create the appropriate in-segment and out-segment
entries. These are done in [RFC3813] using the mplsInSegmentTable
and mplsOutSegmentTable.
In mplsInSegmentTable:
{
mplsInSegmentIndex = 0x0000001

mplsXCLabelStackIndex = 0x00,
mplsXCRowStatus = createAndGo(4)
}
Venkatesan, et al. Standards Track [Page 22]
RFC 7453 MPLS-TP MIB February 2015
This table entry is extended by an entry in the mplsXCExtTable. Note
that the nature of the 'extends' relationship is a sparse
augmentation so that the entry in the mplsXCExtTable has the same
index values as the entry in the mplsXCTable.
9.2.10. Reverse-Direction mplsXCExtEntry
Next, for the reverse direction:
In mplsXCExtTable (0x01, 0x00000001, 0x00000000)
{
-- Back pointer from XC table to Tunnel table
mplsXCExtTunnelPointer = mplsTunnelName.2.1.2.1
mplsXCExtOppositeDirXCPtr =
mplsXCLspId.4.0.0.0.1.1.0.4.0.0.0.1
}
9.3. Example of MPLS-TP Signaled Co-routed Bidirectional Tunnel Setup
The following denotes the co-routed bidirectional tunnel "head"
entry. In intermediate and tail-end nodes, the tunnel table and its
associated tables are created by the local management subsystem
(e.g., agent) when the MPLS-TP Tunnel is signaled successfully.
Refer to [RFC3812] and [RFC4802] for examples of signaled tunnel
table configuration.
9.3.1. mplsTunnelEntry
In mplsTunnelTable:
{
mplsTunnelIndex = 1,
mplsTunnelInstance = 0,
-- Local map number created in mplsTunnelExtNodeConfigTable for
-- Ingress LSR-Id. For the intermediate and tail-end nodes,
-- the local management entity is expected to pick the first
-- available local identifier that is not used in mplsTunnelTable.
mplsTunnelIngressLSRId = 1,
-- Local map number created in mplsTunnelExtNodeConfigTable for
-- Egress LSR ID
mplsTunnelEgressLSRId = 2,
mplsTunnelName = "TP co-routed bidirectional LSP",
mplsTunnelDescr = "East to West",
mplsTunnelIsIf = true (1),
Venkatesan, et al. Standards Track [Page 23]

mplsTunnelRole = head (1),
-- Mandatory parameters needed to activate the row go here
mplsTunnelRowStatus = createAndGo (4)
}
9.3.2. mplsTunnelExtEntry
-- An MPLS extension table
In mplsTunnelExtTable:
{
-- This opposite-direction tunnel pointer may point to 0.0
-- if co-routed bidirectional tunnel is managed by a single
-- tunnel entry
mplsTunnelExtOppositeDirTnlPtr = 0.0
-- Set both the Ingress and Egress LocalId objects to TRUE, as
-- this tunnel entry uses the local identifiers.
mplsTunnelExtIngressLSRLocalIdValid = true,
mplsTunnelExtEgressLSRLocalIdValid = true
}
Next, we must create the appropriate in-segment and out-segment
entries. These are done in [RFC3813] using the mplsInSegmentTable
and mplsOutSegmentTable.
9.3.3. Forward-Direction mplsOutSegmentEntry
The forward-direction mplsOutSegmentTable will be populated
automatically based on the information received from the signaling
protocol.
Venkatesan, et al. Standards Track [Page 24]
RFC 7453 MPLS-TP MIB February 2015
9.3.4. Reverse-Direction mplsInSegmentEntry
The reverse-direction mplsOutSegmentTable will be populated
automatically based on the information received from the signaling
protocol.
Next, two cross-connect entries are created in the mplsXCTable of the
MPLS-LSR-STD-MIB [RFC3813], thereby associating the newly created
segments together.
9.3.5. Forward-Direction mplsXCEntry
The forward-direction mplsXCEntry will be populated as soon as the
forward-path label information is available.
9.3.6. Reverse-Direction mplsXCEntry
The reverse-direction mplsXCEntry will be populated as soon as the
reverse-path label information is available.
This table entry is extended by an entry in the mplsXCExtTable. Note
that the nature of the 'extends' relationship is a sparse
augmentation so that the entry in the mplsXCExtTable has the same
index values as the entry in the mplsXCTable.
9.3.7. Forward-Direction mplsXCExtEntry
Once the forward path information is negotiated using the signaling
protocol, the forward-direction mplsXCExtEntry will be created for
associating the opposite-direction XC entry and tunnel table entry.
9.3.8. Reverse-Direction mplsXCExtEntry
Once the reverse path information is negotiated using the signaling
protocol, the reverse-direction mplsXCExtEntry will be created for
associating the opposite-direction XC entry and tunnel table entry.

DESCRIPTION
"This object is used in accommodating the bigger-
size Global_ID::Node_ID and/or the ICC_Operator_ID::Node_ID
with the smaller-size LSR identifier in order to index
the mplsTunnelTable.
The local identifier is configured between 0 and 16777215,
as the valid IP address range starts from
16777216(01.00.00.00).
This range is chosen to determine whether the
mplsTunnelTable's Ingress/Egress LSR ID is an IP address or
local identifier. If the configured range is not an
IP address, the operator is expected to retrieve the
complete information (Global_ID::Node_ID or
ICC_Operator_ID::Node_ID) from mplsTunnelExtNodeConfigTable.
This way, the existing mplsTunnelTable is reused for
bidirectional tunnel extensions for MPLS-based transport
networks.
The local identifier allows the operator to assign
a unique identifier to map Global_ID::Node_ID and/or
ICC_Operator_ID::Node_ID. As this local identifier is unique
within the node and the same syntax of this object can be
used for MPLS-TE tunnel also, it is up to the operator/local
management entity to choose a non-conflicting value for
indexing the MPLS and MPLS-TP tunnel entries."

14. Security Considerations
This document follows the security considerations mentioned in
Section 12 of [RFC3812]. These security considerations are also
applicable to the MIB objects and tables defined in this document,
which are identified as below.
- The common objects mplsIdGlobalId, mplsIdNodeId, mplsIdCc, and
mplsIdIcc are used to define the identity of an MPLS-TP node for
OAM purposes. If write-access is allowed to these objects it
offers the possibility for incorrect values to be entered that
will confuse the information returned by OAM functions and
possibly prevent OAM from operating correctly. Furthermore,
there is the possibility of inducing one node to impersonate
another with confusing results.
- mplsTunnelExtNodeConfigTable, mplsTunnelExtTable and
mplsXCExtTable collectively contain objects to provision MPLS-TP
Tunnels, tunnel hops, and tunnel resources.
Some of the readable objects in this MIB module (i.e., objects with a
MAX-ACCESS other than not-accessible) may be considered sensitive or
vulnerable in some network environments. It is thus important to
control even GET and/or NOTIFY access to these objects and possibly
to even encrypt the values of these objects when sending them over
the network via SNMP. These are the tables and objects and their
sensitivity/vulnerability:
- mplsTunnelExtNodeConfigTable, mplsTunnelExtTable, and
mplsXCExtTable collectively show the characteristics of the
MPLS-TP tunnel network topology. If an Administrator does not
want to reveal this information, then these tables should be
considered sensitive/vulnerable.
SNMP versions prior to SNMPv3 did not include adequate security.
Even if the network itself is secure (for example by using IPsec),
there is no control as to who on the secure network is allowed to
Venkatesan, et al. Standards Track [Page 57]
RFC 7453 MPLS-TP MIB February 2015
access and GET/SET (read/change/create/delete) the objects in this
MIB module.
Implementations SHOULD provide the security features described by the
SNMPv3 framework (see [RFC3410]), and implementations claiming
compliance to the SNMPv3 standard MUST include full support for
authentication and privacy via the User-based Security Model (USM)
[RFC3414] with the AES cipher algorithm [RFC3826]. Implementations
MAY also provide support for the Transport Security Model (TSM)
[RFC5591] in combination with a secure transport such as SSH
[RFC5592] or TLS/DTLS [RFC6353].
Further, deployment of SNMP versions prior to SNMPv3 is NOT
RECOMMENDED. Instead, it is RECOMMENDED to deploy SNMPv3 and to
enable cryptographic security. It is then a customer/operator
responsibility to ensure that the SNMP entity giving access to an
instance of this MIB module is properly configured to give access to
the objects only to those principals (users) that have legitimate
rights to indeed GET or SET (change/create/delete) them.
15. IANA Considerations
As described in [RFC4221] and [RFC6639], and as requested in the
MPLS-TC-STD-MIB [RFC3811], MPLS-related Standards Track MIB modules
should be rooted under the mplsStdMIB subtree. There are four MPLS
MIB modules contained in this document; each of the following
subsections lists a new assignment made by IANA under the mplsStdMIB
subtree. New assignments can only be made via a Standards Action as
specified in [RFC5226].
15.1. IANA Considerations for MPLS-TC-EXT-STD-MIB
IANA has assigned the OID { mplsStdMIB 17 } to the
MPLS-TC-EXT-STD-MIB module specified in this document.
15.2. IANA Considerations for MPLS-ID-STD-MIB
IANA has assigned the OID { mplsStdMIB 18 } to the MPLS-ID-STD-MIB
module specified in this document.
15.3. IANA Considerations for MPLS-LSR-EXT-STD-MIB
IANA has assigned the OID { mplsStdMIB 19 } to the
MPLS-LSR-EXT-STD-MIB module specified in this document.
Venkatesan, et al. Standards Track [Page 58]
RFC 7453 MPLS-TP MIB February 2015
15.4. IANA Considerations for MPLS-TE-EXT-STD-MIB
IANA has assigned the OID { mplsStdMIB 20 } to the
MPLS-TE-EXT-STD-MIB module specified in this document.
