1.  The SNMP Network Management Framework

   The SNMP Network Management Framework presently consists of three
   major components.  They are:

   o    the SMI, described in RFC 1902 [6] - the mechanisms used
        for describing and naming objects for the purpose of
        management.

   o    the MIB-II, STD 17, RFC 1213 [5] - the core set of
        managed objects for the Internet suite of protocols.

   o    the protocol, STD 15, RFC 1157 [10] and/or RFC 1905
        [9] - the protocol used for accessing managed information.

   Textual conventions are defined in RFC 1903 [7], and conformance
   statements are defined in RFC 1904 [8].

   The Framework permits new objects to be defined for the purpose of
   experimentation and evaluation.

1.1.  Object Definitions

   Managed objects are accessed via a virtual information store, termed
   the Management Information Base or MIB.  Objects in the MIB are
   defined using the subset of Abstract Syntax Notation one (ASN.1)
   defined in the SMI.  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.

2.  Overview

2.1.  Relationship to RFC 1516

   This MIB is intended as a superset of that defined by RFC 1516 [11],
   which will go to historic status.  This MIB includes all of the
   objects contained in that MIB, plus several new ones which provide





de Graaf, et. al.           Standards Track                     [Page 2]

RFC 2108             802.3 Repeater MIB using SMIv2        February 1997


   for significant additional capabilities.  Implementors are encouraged
   to support all applicable conformance groups in order to make the
   best use of the new functionality provided by this MIB.  The new
   objects provide support for:

   o    multiple repeaters

   o    100BASE-T management

   o    port TopN capability

   o    address search and topology mapping

   Certain objects have been deprecated; in particular, those scalar
   objects used for managing a single repeater are now of minimal use
   since they are duplicated in the new multiple- repeater definitions.
   Additional objects have been deprecated based on implementation
   experience with RFC 1516.

2.2.  Repeater Management

   Instances of the object types defined in this memo represent
   attributes of an IEEE 802.3 (Ethernet-like) repeater, as defined by
   Section 9, "Repeater Unit for 10 Mb/s Baseband Networks" in the IEEE
   802.3/ISO 8802-3 CSMA/CD standard [1], and Section 27, "Repeater for
   100 Mb/s Baseband Networks" in the IEEE Standard 802.3u-1995 [2].

   These Repeater MIB objects may be used to manage non-standard
   repeater-like devices, but defining objects to describe
   implementation-specific properties of non-standard repeater- like
   devices is outside the scope of this memo.


   The definitions presented here are based on Section 30.4, "Layer
   Management for 10 and 100 Mb/s Baseband Repeaters" and Annex 30A,
   "GDMO Specificataions for 802.3 managed objects" of [3].

   Implementors of these MIB objects should note that [3] explicitly
   describes 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 [3], with the intention that the same instrumentation can
   be used to implement both the IEEE and IETF management standards.

2.3.  Structure of the MIB

   Objects in this MIB are arranged into packages, each of which
   contains a set of related objects within a broad functional category.
   Objects within a package are generally defined under the same OID
   subtree.  These packages are intended for organizational convenience
   ONLY, and have no relation to the conformance groups defined later in
   the document.

2.3.1.  Basic Definitions

   The basic definitions include objects which are applicable to all
   repeaters: 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.

2.3.2.  Monitor Definitions

   The monitor definitions include monitoring statistics for each
   repeater within the system and for individual ports.

2.3.3.  Address Tracking Definitions

   This collection includes objects for tracking the MAC addresses of
   the DTEs attached to the ports within the system and for mapping the
   topology of a network.

   Note:  These definitions are based on a technology which has been
   patented by Hewlett-Packard Company.  HP has granted rights to this
   technology to implementors of this MIB.  See [12] and [13] for
   details.

2.3.4.  Top N Definitions

   These objects may be used for tracking the ports with the most
   activity within the system or within particular repeaters.

2.4.  Relationship to Other MIBs

2.4.1.  Relationship to MIB-II

   It is assumed that a repeater implementing this MIB will also
   implement (at least) the 'system' group defined in MIB-II [5].








de Graaf, et. al.           Standards Track                     [Page 4]

RFC 2108             802.3 Repeater MIB using SMIv2        February 1997


2.4.1.1.  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.

2.4.1.2.  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 'subnetwork'.
   (Note that this term is not to be confused with 'subnet' which refers
   to an addressing partitioning scheme used in the Internet suite of
   protocols.)

   This Repeater 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.

   This is consistent with the physical-layer nature of a repeater.  A
   repeater is a bitwise store-and-forward device.  It recognizes
   activity and bits, but does not process incoming data based on any
   packet-related information (such as checksum or addresses).  A
   repeater has no MAC address, no MAC implementation, and does not pass
   packets up to higher-level protocol entities for processing.

   (When a network management entity is observing a repeater, it may
   appear as though the repeater is passing packets to a higher-level
   protocol entity.  However, this is only a means of implementing
   management, and this passing of management information is not part of
   the repeater functionality.)

               collision detection (CSMA/CD) access method
               and physical layer specifications (1993).

           [IEEE 802.3 Mgt]
               refers to IEEE 802.3u-1995, '10 Mb/s &
               100 Mb/s Management, Section 30,'
               Supplement to ANSI/IEEE 802.3.

           The following terms are used throughout this
           MIB module.  For complete formal definitions,
           the IEEE 802.3 standards should be consulted
           wherever possible:

           System - A managed entity compliant with this
           MIB, and incorporating at least one managed
           802.3 repeater.

           Chassis - An enclosure for one managed repeater,
           part of a managed repeater, or several managed
           repeaters.  It typically contains an integral
           power supply and a variable number of available
           module slots.

           Repeater-unit - The portion of the repeater set
           that is inboard of the physical media interfaces.
           The physical media interfaces (MAUs, AUIs) may be
           physically separated from the repeater-unit, or
           they may be integrated into the same physical
           package.

           Trivial repeater-unit - An isolated port that can
           gather statistics.

           Group - A recommended, but optional, entity
           defined by the IEEE 802.3 management standard,
           in order to support a modular numbering scheme.
           The classical example allows an implementor to
           represent field-replaceable units as groups of
           ports, with the port numbering matching the
           modular hardware implementation.

           System interconnect segment - An internal
           segment allowing interconnection of ports
           belonging to different physical entities
           into the same logical manageable repeater.
           Examples of implementation might be
           backplane busses in modular hubs, or
           chaining cables in stacks of hubs.

RFC 2108             802.3 Repeater MIB using SMIv2        February 1997


           Stack - A scalable system that may include
           managed repeaters, in which modularity is
           achieved by interconnecting a number of
           different chassis.

           Module - A building block in a modular
           chassis.  It typically maps into one 'slot';
           however, the range of configurations may be
           very large, with several modules entering
           one slot, or one module covering several
           slots.

               The rptrGroupCapacity is the number of groups

               numbered in the range from 1 to rptrGroupCapacity.

               which case the actual number of groups present

               of groups present will never be greater than
               rptrGroupCapacity.

               Note:  In practice, this will generally be the
               number of field-replaceable units (i.e., modules,

               Setting this object to reset(2) causes a
               transition to the START state of Fig 9-2 in
               section 9 [IEEE 802.3 Std] for a 10Mb/s repeater,
               and the START state of Fig 27-2 in section 27
               of that standard for a 100Mb/s repeater.

               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
               portAdminStatus parameters.  Included in this
               action is the execution of a disruptive Self-Test
               with the following characteristics:  a) The nature
               of the tests is not specified.  b) The test resets
               the repeater but without affecting management
               information about the repeater.  c) The test does
               not inject packets onto any segment.  d) Packets
               received during the test may or may not be
               transferred.  e) The test does not interfere with
               management functions.

               After performing this self-test, the agent will
               update the repeater health information (including
               rptrOperStatus and rptrHealthText), and send a
               rptrHealth trap."

               Setting this object to selfTest(2) causes the

               disruptive self-test that has the following
               characteristics:  a) The nature of the tests is
               not specified.  b) The test does not change the
               state of the repeater or management information
               about the repeater.  c) The test does not inject
               packets onto any segment.  d) The test does not
               prevent the relay of any packets.  e) The test
               does not interfere with management functions.

               After performing this test, the agent will update
               the repeater health information (including
               rptrOperStatus and rptrHealthText) and send a
               rptrHealth trap.

               Note that this definition allows returning an
               'okay' result after doing a trivial test.

               "Setting this object to disabled(2) disables the
               port.  A disabled port neither transmits nor

               which is disabled when power is lost or when a
               reset is exerted shall remain disabled when normal
               operation resumes.

               The admin status takes precedence over auto-
               partition and functionally operates between the
               auto-partition mechanism and the AUI/PMA.

               Setting this object to enabled(1) enables the port
               and exerts a BEGIN on the port's auto-partition
               state machine.

               (In effect, when a port is disabled, the value of
               rptrPortAutoPartitionState for that port is frozen
               until the port is next enabled.  When the port

               of the conditions required by only one of the

               Measurement method A:  1) The CollisionEvent
               signal is not asserted (10Mb/s operation) or
               the Collision Count Increment state of the
               partition state diagram (fig 27-8 of
               [IEEE 802.3 Std]) has not been entered
               (100Mb/s operation).  2) The ActivityDuration
               is greater than ValidPacketMinTime.  3) The
               frequency (data rate) is detectably mismatched
               from the local transmit frequency.

               Measurement method B:  1) The CollisionEvent
               signal is not asserted (10Mb/s operation)
               or the Collision Count Increment state of the
               partition state diagram (fig 27-8 of
               [IEEE 802.3 Std]) has not been entered
               (100Mb/s operation).  2) The OctetCount is
               greater than 63.  3) The frequency (data
               rate) is detectably mismatched from the local
               transmit frequency.  The exact degree of
               mismatch is vendor specific and is to be
               defined by the vendor for conformance testing.

               When this event occurs, other counters whose

               also be incremented, at the implementor's

               to maintain data integrity is beyond the scope of
               this standard.

       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
               rptrAddrSearchTable for the repeater that is to
               perform the search.  This is accomplished with the
               rptrAddrSearchLock and rptrAddrSearchStatus as
               follows:

               try_again:

                        rptrAddrSearchOwner = '')

               A management station first retrieves the values of
               the appropriate instances of the rptrAddrSearchLock
               and rptrAddrSearchStatus objects, periodically
               repeating the retrieval if necessary, until the value
               of rptrAddrSearchStatus is 'notInUse'.  The
               management station then tries to set the same
               instance of the rptrAddrSearchLock object to the
               value it just retrieved, the same instance of the
               rptrAddrSearchStatus object to 'inUse', and the
               corresponding instance of rptrAddrSearchOwner to a
               value indicating itself.  If the set operation
               succeeds, then the management station has obtained
               ownership of the rptrAddrSearchEntry, and the value
               of rptrAddrSearchLock 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 rptrAddrSearchEntry.

               Once ownership is obtained, the management station
               can proceed with the search operation.  Note that the
               agent will reset rptrAddrSearchStatus 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 rptrAddrSearchLock object to the
               previous value + 1, the instance of the
               rptrAddrSearchStatus to 'notInUse', and the instance
               of rptrAddrSearchOwner to a zero length string.  This
               is done to prevent overwriting another station's
               lock."

4.  Topology Mapping

   The network mapping algorithm presented below takes information
   available from network devices such as repeaters, bridges, and
   switches, and creates a representation of the physical topology of
   the network.

   Networking devices connect to the network via one or more ports.
   Through these ports, the device is capable of hearing network packets
   sent by other devices.  By looking the source address in the packet,
   and identifying which port the packet was heard on, the device can
   provide information to a Network Management System about the location
   of an address in the network, relative to that device.  For devices
   such as bridges and switches, the association of address to port can
   be retrieved via the forwarding data base part of the Bridge MIB.
   For repeaters, the rptrAddrSearchTable may be used to perform the
   association.

   Given this information, it would be possible for the NMS to create a
   topology of the network which represents the physical relationships
   of the devices in the networks.  The following is an example of how
   this might be done:

   Assume the network:

                 =============================
                     |            |       |
                     |            |       |
                    d1           d4      d7
                   /  \          |
                  /    \         |
                d2      d3       d5
                                  |
                                  |
                                 d6

   The discovery process would first determine the existence of the
   network devices and nodes in the network.  In the above example, the
   network devices discovered would be:

                           d1,d2,d3,d4,d5,d6,d7

   From this list of discovered devices, select (arbitrarily or via some
   heuristic) a device as the starting point.  From that device,
   determine where all other devices are located in the network with
   respect to the selected device.





de Graaf, et. al.           Standards Track                    [Page 75]

RFC 2108             802.3 Repeater MIB using SMIv2        February 1997


   For example, if d1 is the selected device, the network in relation to
   d1 would look like:

                    d1
                   / | \
                  /  |  \
                d2  d3   d4,d5,d6,d7

   So d1 sees d2 on one port, d3 on another port, and d4, d5, and d6 on
   the third port.  In other words, using the rptrAddrSearchTable (if d1
   is a repeater) or the Forwarding Database (if it is a bridge or a
   switch), d1 has located d2 on one port, d1 has located d3 on another
   port, and finally, d1 has located d4, d5, d6, and d7 on yet another
   port.

   After the first step of the algorithm is accomplished, the next and
   final step is a recursive one.  Go to each of these temporary
   'segments' (e.g., the segment connecting d1 and d2, or the segment
   connecting d1 and d3, or the segment connecting d1, d4, d5, d6, and
   d7) and determine which of these devices really belongs in that
   segment.

   As new segments are created due to this process, the recursive
   algorithm visits them, and performs the exact same process.

   In the example, the segments connecting d1 and d2, and connecting d1
   and d3, require no further scrutiny, since there are only two nodes
   in those segments.  However, the segment connecting d1, d4, d5, d6,
   and d7 may prove to be one or more segments, so we will investigate
   it.

   The purpose of this step is to determine which devices are really
   connected to this segment, and which are actually connected
   downstream.  This is done by giving each of the child devices in the
   segment (d4, d5, d6, and d7) a chance to eliminate each of the others
   from the segment.

   A device eliminates another device by showing that it hears the
   parent device (in this case, d1) on one port, and the other device on
   another port (different from the port on which it heard the parent).
   If this is true, then it must mean that that device is _between_ the
   parent device and the device which is being eliminated.

   In the example, we can see that device d4 can eliminate both d5 and
   d6, , but nobody can eliminate d4 and d7, because everybody hears
   them on the same port that they hear the parent device (d1).  So the
   resulting topology looks like:

                    d1
                   / | \
                  /  |  \
                d2  d3   d4,d7
                         |
                         |
                       d5,d6

   Next the algorithm visits the next segment, which is the one
   connecting d4, d5, and d6.  Using the process stated above, d5 can
   eliminate d6, since it hears d4 on a different port from where it
   hears d6.  Finally, the topology looks like:

                    d1
                   / | \
                  /  |  \
                d2  d3   d4,d7
                         |
                         |
                         d5
                         |
                         |
                         d6


   This is actually the topology shown at the beginning of the
   description.

   With this information about how the network devices are connected, it
   is a relatively simple extension to then place nodes such as
   workstations and PCs in the network.  This can be done by placing the
   node into a segment, then allowing the network devices to show that
   the node is really not part of that segment.

   This elimination can be done because the devices know what port
   connects them to the segment on which the node is temporarily placed.
   If they actually hear the node on a different port than that which
   connects the device to the segment, then the node must be downstream,
   and so it is moved onto the downstream segment.  Then that segment is
   evaluated, and so forth.  Eventually, no device can show that the
   node is connected downstream, and so it must be attached to that
   segment.

   For example, assume the network:

                   =============================
                       |            |       |
                       |            |       |
                      d1           d4      d7
                     /  \          |
                    /    \         |
                  d2      d3       d5
                          |         |
                          |         |
                          e1       d6

   In this network, we are trying to place e1 where it belongs.  We
   begin by placing it arbitrarily into a segment:

                ==================================
                  |       |            |       |
                  |       |            |       |
                 e1      d1           d4      d7
                        /  \          |
                       /    \         |
                     d2      d3       d5
                                       |
                                       |
                                      d6

   In the above case, we would give d1, d4, and d7 a chance to show that
   e1 is not really on that segment.  d4 and d7 hear e1 on the same port
   which connects them to that segment, so they cannot eliminate e1 from
   the segment.  However, d1 will hear e1 on a different port, so we
   move e1 down onto the segment which is connected by that port.  This
   yields the following:

                   =============================
                       |            |       |
                       |            |       |
                      d1           d4      d7
                     /  \          |
                    /    \         |
                  d2      d3,e1    d5
                                    |
                                    |
                                   d6

   Now we give everyone in that segment (besides that parent device, d1)
   a chance to eliminate e1.  Only d3 can try, and it succeeds, so we
   place e1 on segment which is connected by the port on which d3 heard
   e1.  There is no segment there (yet), so we create one, and end up
   with the following:

                   =============================
                       |            |       |
                       |            |       |
                      d1           d4      d7
                     /  \          |
                    /    \         |
                  d2      d3       d5
                          |        |
                          |         |
                          e1       d6

   which is the correct position.
