All ied Tel esyn Enterp rise MI B

The Allied Telesyn Enterprise MIB defines a portion of the Management Infor-
mation Base (MIB) for use with network management protocols in TCP/IP-
based internets. In particular, it defines objects for managing products in Allied
Telesyn’s multiprotocol routers. The router supports a number of standard
MIBs. Objects in the Enterprise MIB represent features specific to the Allied
Telesyn router that are not covered by other standard MIBs.

Objects defined in this MIB reside in the private(4) sub-tree (Figure C-1 on
page C-4) and have the object identifier prefix alliedTelesyn ({enterprises 207}).

SNMP or by manager console command, then they will be changed back to
’idle(1)’. The values ’actionstart(6)’ and ’actionstop(7)’ cause a start and stop of
the load process respectively. Starting the load can only occur if this field has
the values ’idle(1)’, ’complete(4)’, or ’reset(5). Stopping the load can only occur
is this field has the values ’wait(2)’ or ’loading(3)’. Reading the value of the
loadStatus object after one of ’actionstart (6)’ or ’actionstop(7)’ has been set will
give one of the values ’idle(1)’ to ’reset(5)’. Legal values are:

MIB-II MIB
RFC 1213, “Management Information Base for Network Management of TCP/
IP-based internets: MIB-II” defines the core set of managed objects for TCP/IP-
based internets, and supersedes MIB-I defined in RFC 1156.

Objects defined in MIB-II reside in the mib(1) sub-tree (Figure C-2 on

page C-17) and have the object identifier prefix mib-2 ({mgmt 1}). The objects
are arranged into 11 groups (Table C-7 on page C-17).

These groups are the basic unit of conformance: if any of the objects in a group
are applicable to an implementation, then it must implement all objects in that
group.

All router models implement all groups in MIB-II.

host offering application services would have a value of 72 (2(4-1) + 2(7-1)). Note
that in the context of the Internet suite of protocols, values should be calculated
accordingly:

Implementation of the Address Translation Group is mandatory for all sys-
tems.

The Address Translation Group contains one table which is the union across all
interfaces of the translation tables for converting a NetworkAddress (e.g., an IP
address) into a subnetwork-specific address. For lack of a better term, this doc-
ument refers to such a subnetwork-specific address as a ‘physical’ address.

Examples of such translation tables are:

■ For broadcast media where ARP is in use, the translation table is equiva-
lent to the ARP cache.
■ On an X.25 network where non-algorithmic translation to X.121 addresses
is required, the translation table contains the NetworkAddress to X.121
address equivalencies.

This group is deprecated by MIB-II. That is, it is being included solely for compatibility
with MIB-I, and will most likely be excluded from MIB-III. From MIB-II and onwards,
each network protocol group contains its own address translation tables. The IP Group
contains one address translation table (ipNetToMediaTable) for translating from IP ad-
dresses to physical addresses.

indirect routing in the IP architecture. Setting this object to the value invalid(2)
has the effect of invalidating the corresponding entry in the ipRouteTable

matter as to whether the agent removes an invalidated entry from the table.
Accordingly, management stations must be prepared to receive tabular infor-

Accordingly, it is appropriate for an agent to return a ‘badValue’ response if a
management station attempts to set this object to any other value.
If a management station sets this object to the value DeleteTCB(12), then this

When read, this variable always returns the most recent value that egp-
NeighEventTrigger was set to. If it has not been set since the last initialization
of the network management subsystem on the device, it returns a value of
‘stop’.
When set, this variable causes a Start or Stop event on the specified neighbour,
as specified on pages 8-10 of RFC 904. Briefly, a Start event causes an Idle peer
to begin neighbour acquisition and a non-Idle peer to re-initiate neighbour
acquisition. A stop event causes a non-Idle peer to return to the Idle state until
a Start event occurs, either via egpNeighEventTrigger or otherwise.

Frame Rel ay DTE MI B

RFC 1315, “Management Information Base for Frame Relay DTEs” defines a
portion of the Management Information Base (MIB) for use with network man-
agement protocols in TCP/IP-based internets. In particular, it defines objects
for managing Frame Relay.

Objects defined in this MIB reside in the mib(1) sub-tree (Figure C-3 on
page C-58), under the Transmission Group defined in MIB-II and have the
object identifier prefix frame-relay ({transmission 32}). The MIB is composed of
three groups, one defining the Data Link Connection Management Interface
(DLCMI), one describing the Circuits, and a third describing errors.

frame-relay (32)

MIB-FG2

For the purposes of understanding this MIB, Frame Relay is viewed as a multi-
access media, not as a group of point-to-point connections. This model pro-
poses that Frame Relay is a single interface to the network (physical connec-
tion) with many destinations or neighbours (virtual connections). This view
enables a network manager the ability to group all virtual connections with
their corresponding physical connection thereby allowing simpler diagnostics
and trouble shooting.

During normal operation, Frame Relay virtual circuits will be added, deleted
and change availability. The occurrence of such changes is of interest to the net-
work manager and therefore, one trap is defined, intended to be corollary to
the SNMP “Link Up” and “Link Down” traps.

The following conventions are used in this MIB in addition to the conventions
defined in RFC 1155, “The Structure and Identification of Management Infor-
mation for TCP/IP-based Internets”:

A Frame Relay service is a multiplexing service. Data Link Connection Identifi-
ers enumerate virtual circuits (permanent or dynamic) which are layered onto
the underlying circuit, represented by ifEntry. Therefore, each of the entries in
the Standard MIB’s Interface Table with an ifType of Frame Relay represents a
Q.922 interface. Zero or more virtual circuits are layered onto this interface and
provide interconnection with various remote destinations. Each such virtual
circuit is represented by an entry in the circuit table.

‘invalid’ for some arbitrary length of time. It is also legal to set the state of a vir-

MIB
RFC 1398, “Definitions of Managed Objects for the Ethernet-like Interface
Types” defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB) for use
with network management protocols in TCP/IP-based internets. In particular,
it defines objects for managing Ethernet-like objects.

Objects defined in this MIB reside in the mib(1) sub-tree, under the Transmis-
sion Group defined in MIB-II (Figure C-4 on page C-69) and have the object
identifier prefix dot3 ({transmission 7}).

Instances of these object types represent attributes of an interface to an Ether-

net-like communications medium. At present, Ethernet-like media are identi-
fied by three values of the ifType object in the Internet Standard MIB (Table C-8
on page C-69).

For these interfaces, the value of the ifSpecific variable in MIB-II has the object
identifier value dot3 ({ transmission 7 }).

The definitions in this MIB are based on the IEEE 802.3 Layer Management
Specification. Some of the attributes defined in the IEEE 802.3 Layer Manage-
ment Specification (e.g. the number of octets transmitted or received on a par-
ticular interface, the number of frames transmitted or received on a particular
interface, the promiscuous status of an interface, the MAC address of an inter-
face, and multicast information associated with an interface) are represented by

objects in the Internet Standard MIB or in the Generic Interface Extensions

MIB, and are therefore not represented by objects in this MIB.

The relationship between an Ethernet-like interface and an interface in the con-

text of the Internet Standard MIB is one-to-one. As such, the value of an ifIndex
object instance can be directly used to identify corresponding instances of the
objects defined herein.

802 .3 Tests
The ifExtnsTestTable defined in RFC 1229 provides a common means for a
manager to test any interface corresponding to a value of ifIndex.

At this time, one well known test (testFullDuplexLoopBack) is defined in RFC

1229. For Ethernet-like interfaces, this test configures the MAC chip and exe-
cutes an internal loopback test of memory and the MAC chip logic. This loop-
back test can only be executed if the interface is offline. Once the test has
completed, the MAC chip should be reinitialised for network operation, but it
should remain offline.

If an error occurs during a test, the object ifExtnsTestResult (defined in RFC

1229) will be set to ‘failed(7)’. Table C-9 on page C-75 lists the two object identi-
fiers that may be used to provided more information as values for the object
ifExtnsTestCode in RFC 1229.

Another test, specific to Ethernet-like interfaces with the exception of 10BaseT

and 10BaseF, is Time-domain Reflectometry.

The TDR value may be useful in determining the approximate distance to a

cable fault. It is advisable to repeat this test to check for a consistent resulting
TDR value, to verify that there is a fault.

A TDR test returns as its result the time interval, measured in 10 MHz ticks or
100 nsec units, between the start of TDR test transmission and the subsequent
detection of a collision or deassertion of carrier. On successful completion of a
TDR test, the appropriate instance of ifExtnsTestResult contains the object iden-
tifier of the MIB object which contains the value of this time interval
(Table C-10 on page C-76).

dge MI B
RFC 1493, “Definitions of Managed Objects for Bridges” defines a portion of
the Management Information Base (MIB) for use with network management
protocols in TCP/IP based internets. In particular it defines objects for manag-
ing MAC bridges based on the IEEE 802.1D-1990 standard between Local Area
Network (LAN) segments. Provisions are made for support of transparent
bridging and for the connection of bridges by subnetworks other than LAN
segments.

Objects defined in this MIB reside in the mib(1) sub-tree (Figure C-5 on
page C-77) and have the object identifier prefix dot1dBridge ({ mib-2 17 }).

MIB-FG4

A bridge is used to connect Local Area Network segments below the network
layer. There are two major modes defined for this bridging; transparent and
source route. The transparent method of bridging is defined in the draft IEEE
802.1d specification (“ISO DIS 10038 MAC Bridges”). This MIB defines those
objects needed for the management of a bridging entity operating in the trans-
parent mode, as well as some objects applicable to all types of bridges.

The MIB is composed of the following sections:

■ The dot1dBase Group is mandatory and contains the objects which are
applicable to all types of bridges.
■ The dot1dStp Group contains objects that denote the bridge’s state with
respect to the Spanning Tree Protocol. If a node does not implemented the
Spanning Tree Protocol, this group will not be implemented.
■ The dot1dSr Group contains objects that describe the entity’s state with
respect to source route bridging. If source routing is not supported this
group will not be implemented. This group is applicable to source route
only, and SRT bridges. This group will be described in a separate document
applicable only to source route bridging.
■ The dot1dTp Group contains objects that describe the entity’s state with
respect to transparent bridging. If transparent bridging is not supported
this group will not be implemented. This group is applicable to transparent
only and SRT bridges.

■ The dot1dStatic Group contains objects that describe the entity’s state with
respect to destination-address filtering. If destination-address filtering is
not supported this group will not be implemented. This group is applica-
ble to any type of bridge which performs destination-address filtering.

It is assumed that a bridge implementing this MIB will also implement (at
least) the system group and the interfaces group defined in MIB-II. The system
group contains objects that apply to the entity as a whole irrespective of
whether the entity’s sole functionality is bridging, or whether bridging is only
a subset of the entity’s functionality. The interfaces group contains information
on an entity’s interfaces, where each interface is thought of as being attached to
a subnetwork. The term segment is used in this MIB to refer to such a subnet-
work, whether it be an Ethernet segment, a ring, a WAN link, or even an X.25
virtual circuit.

Implicit in this Bridge MIB is the notion of ports on a bridge. Each of these
ports is associated with one interface of the interfaces group, and in most situa-
tions, each port is associated with a different interface. However, there are situ-
ations in which multiple ports are associated with the same interface. An
example of such a situation would be several ports each corresponding one-to-
one with several X.25 virtual circuits but all on the same interface. Each port is
uniquely identified by a port number. A port number has no mandatory rela-
tionship to an interface number, but in the simple case a port number will have
the same value as the corresponding interface’s interface number. Port num-
bers are in the range (1..dot1dBaseNumPorts).

Some entities perform other functionality as well as bridging through the send-
ing and receiving of data on their interfaces. In such situations, only a subset of
the data sent/received on an interface is within the domain of the entity’s
bridging functionality. This subset is considered to be delineated according to a
set of protocols, with some protocols being bridged, and other protocols not
being bridged. For example, in an entity which exclusively performed bridg-
ing, all protocols would be considered as being bridged, whereas in an entity
which performed IP routing on IP datagrams and only bridged other protocols,
only the non-IP data would be considered as being bridged.

Thus, this Bridge MIB (and in particular, its counters) are applicable only to
that subset of the data on an entity’s interfaces which is sent/received for a
protocol being bridged. All such data is sent/received via the ports of the
bridge.

The following conventions are used in this MIB in addition to the conventions
defined in RFC 1155, “The Structure and Identification of Management Infor-
mation for TCP/IP-based Internets”:

C on v e n t io n Me an i ng
MacAddress OCTET STRING (SIZE (6))
A 6 octet MAC address in the canonical order defined by
IEEE 802.1a, i.e., as if it were transmitted least significant bit
first, even though 802.5 (in contrast to other 802.x
protocols) requires MAC addresses to be transmitted most
significant bit first. 16-bit addresses, if needed, are
represented by setting their upper 4 octets to all 0’s, i.e.,
AAFF would be represented as 00000000AAFF.

J613-M0274-00 Rev.B
SN M P M IB s C - 79

C on v e n t io n Me an i ng
BridgeId OCTET STRING (SIZE (8))
The Bridge-Identifier as used in the Spanning Tree Protocol
to uniquely identify a bridge. Its first two octets (in network
byte order) contain a priority value and its last 6 octets
contain the MAC address used to refer to a bridge in a
unique fashion (typically, the numerically smallest MAC
address of all ports on the bridge).
Timeout INTEGER
A Spanning Tree Protocol timer in units of 1/100 seconds.
These timers, when stored in a Spanning Tree Protocol’s
BPDU, are in units of 1/256 seconds. Note, however, that
802.1D-1990 specifies a settable granularity of no more
than 1 second for these timers. To convert a Timeout value
into a value in units of 1/256 seconds, the following
algorithm should be used:
b = floor( (n * 256) / 100)
where:
floor = quotient [ignore remainder]
n is the value in 1/100 second units
b is the value in 1/256 second units
To convert the value from 1/256 second units back to 1/100
seconds, the following algorithm should be used:
n = ceiling( (b * 100) / 256)
where:
ceiling = quotient [if remainder is 0], or quotient + 1 [if
remainder is non-zero]
n is the value in 1/100 second units
b is the value in 1/256 second units
Note: it is important that the arithmetic operations are done
in the order specified (i.e., multiply first, divide second).

Hos t R eso ur ces MI

MIB
RFC 1514, "Host Resources MIB" defines a portion of the Management Infor-
mation Base (MIB) for use with network management protocols in TCP/IP-
based internets. In particular, it defines objects for managing host systems.

The term host is construed to mean any computer that communicates with
other similar computers attached to the internet and that is directly used by
one or more human beings. Although this MIB does not necessarily apply to
devices whose primary function is communications services (e.g. terminal
servers, routers, bridges, monitoring equipment), such relevance is not explic-
itly precluded. This MIB instruments attributes common to all internet hosts
including, for example, both personal computers and systems that run variants
of Unix.

Objects defined in this MIB reside in the mib(1) sub-tree (Figure C-6 on
page C-94) and have the object identifier prefix host ({mib-2 25}). The objects are
arranged into six groups (Table C-12 on page C-94).

The following conventions are used in this MIB in addition to the conventions
defined in RFC 1155, "The Structure and Identification of Management Infor-
mation for TCP/IP-based Internets":

C on v e n t io n Me an i ng
Boolean INTEGER (true(1), false(2))
Boolean values.
KBytes INTEGER (0..2147483647)
Memory size, expressed in units of 1024 bytes.
ProductID OBJECT IDENTIFIER
This textual convention is intended to identify the
manufacturer, model, and version of a specific hardware or
software product. It is suggested that these OBJECT
IDENTIFIERs are allocated such that all products from a
particular manufacturer are registered under a sub-tree distinct
to that manufacturer. In addition, all versions of a product
should be registered under a sub-tree distinct to that product.
With this strategy, a management station may uniquely
determine the manufacturer and/or model of a product whose
productID is unknown to the management station. Objects of
this type may be useful for inventory purposes or for
automatically detecting incompatibilities or version
mismatches between various hardware and software
components on a system.
unknownProduct OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { 0 0 }
Used for any unknown ProductID. For example, the product ID
for the ACME 4860 66MHz clock doubled processor might be
enterprises.acme.acmeProcessors.a4860DX2.MHz66. A
software product might be registered as
enterprises.acme.acmeOperatingSystems.acmeDOS.six(6).one
(1).
DateAndTime OCTET STRING (SIZE (8 | 11))
A date-time specification for the local time of day. This data
type is intended to provide a consistent method of reporting
date information.

f ie ld oc t et s c o nt e nt s range

D e sc r ip t i on The (conceptual) table of logical storage areas on the host.
An entry shall be placed in the storage table for each logical area of storage that
is allocated and has fixed resource limits. The amount of storage represented in
an entity is the amount actually usable by the requesting entity, and excludes
loss due to formatting or file system reference information.
These entries are associated with logical storage areas, as might be seen by an
application, rather than physical storage entities which are typically seen by an
operating system. Storage such as tapes and floppies without file systems on
them are typically not allocated in chunks by the operating system to request-
ing applications, and therefore shouldn’t appear in this table. Examples of
valid storage for this table include disk partitions, file systems, ram (for some
architectures this is further segmented into regular memory, extended memory,
and so on), backing store for virtual memory (‘swap space’).
This table is intended to be a useful diagnostic for ‘out of memory’ and ‘out of
buffers’ types of failures. In addition, it can be a useful performance monitor-
ing tool for tracking memory, disk, or buffer usage.

Implementation of this group is mandatory for all host systems.

The device group is useful for identifying and diagnosing the devices on a sys-
tem. The hrDeviceTable contains common information for any type of device.
In addition, some devices have device-specific tables for more detailed infor-
mation. More such tables may be defined in the future for other device types.
