Abstract This memo describes a SMIv2 MIB for a device implementing the Differentiated Services Architecture [DSARCH], described in detail by the Differentiated Services Router Conceptual Model [MODEL]. Baker, Chan, Smith Expires November 2000 [Page 1] Internet Draft Differentiated Services MIB May 2000 1. The SNMP Management Framework The SNMP Management Framework presently consists of five major components: o An overall architecture, described in RFC 2571 [1]. o Mechanisms for describing and naming objects and events for the purpose of management. The first version of this Structure of Management Information (SMI) is called SMIv1 and described in RFC 1155 [2], RFC 1212 [3] and RFC 1215 [4]. The second version, called SMIv2, is described in RFC 2578 [5], RFC 2579 [6] and RFC 2580 [7]. o Message protocols for transferring management information. The first version of the SNMP message protocol is called SNMPv1 and described in RFC 1157 [8]. A second version of the SNMP message protocol, which is not an Internet standards track protocol, is called SNMPv2c and described in RFC 1901 [9] and RFC 1906 [10]. The third version of the message protocol is called SNMPv3 and described in RFC 1906 [10], RFC 2572 [11] and RFC 2574 [12]. o Protocol operations for accessing management information. The first set of protocol operations and associated PDU formats is described in RFC 1157 [8]. A second set of protocol operations and associated PDU formats is described in RFC 1905 [13]. o A set of fundamental applications described in RFC 2573 [14] and the view-based access control mechanism described in RFC 2575 [15]. A more detailed introduction to the current SNMP Management Framework can be found in RFC 2570 [16]. Managed objects are accessed via a virtual information store, termed the Management Information Base or MIB. Objects in the MIB are defined using the mechanisms defined in the SMI. This memo specifies a MIB module that is compliant to the SMIv2. A MIB conforming to the SMIv1 can be produced through the appropriate translations. The resulting translated MIB must be semantically equivalent, except where objects or events are omitted because no translation is possible (use of Counter64). Some machine-readable information in SMIv2 will be converted into textual descriptions in SMIv1 during the translation process. However, this loss of machine readable information is not considered to change the semantics of the MIB. Baker, Chan, Smith Expires November 2000 [Page 2] Internet Draft Differentiated Services MIB May 2000 2. Structure of this MIB This MIB is designed according to the Differentiated Services implementation conceptual model documented in [MODEL]. 2.1. Overview The conceptual model [MODEL] discusses the way we model the ingress and egress interfaces of an 'n'-port router. In this MIB, we model these identically, making the distinction between them an index variable. Each interface then performs some or all of the following high-level functions: o Classify each packet according to some set of rules o Determine whether the data stream the packet is part of is within or outside its rate o Perform a set of resulting actions, possibly including counting the traffic, application of an appropriate drop policy and marking of the traffic with a Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) as defined in [DSFIELD]. o Enqueue the traffic for output in the appropriate queue, whose scheduler may shape the traffic or simply forward it with some minimum rate or maximum latency. The MIB therefore contains the following elements: Classifier and Filter Tables A general extensible framework and one example (an IP Six-Tuple Multi-Field Classification Table). Meter Tables A general extensible framework and one example (an exponential weighted moving average meter). Action Tables Absolute Drop, Mark and Count actions. The "multiplexer", "replicator" and "null" actions described in [MODEL] are accomplished implicitly by means of the RowPointer structures of the other elements. Queue, Scheduler and Algorithmic Dropper Tables Queue, Scheduler and Algorithmic Dropper Tables. Baker, Chan, Smith Expires November 2000 [Page 3] Internet Draft Differentiated Services MIB May 2000 2.2. Classifiers The classifier and filter tables determine how traffic is sorted out. They identify separable classes of traffic, by reference to an appropriate filter, which may select anything from an individual micro- flow to aggregates identified by DSCP. The classification is used to send these separate streams to appropriate meters or action elements. For example, to indicate a multi-stage meter, sub-classes of traffic may be sent to different meter stages: e.g. in an implementation of the Assured Forwarding (AF) PHB [AF-PHB], AF11 traffic might be sent to the first meter, AF12 traffic might be sent to the second and AF13 traffic sent to the second meter stage's out-of-profile action. 2.2.1. Classifier Table The structure of the classifier table, as described in [MODEL], is a sequence of unambiguous tests. Within each stage in the sequence, it must not be important in which order the tests are made. This is to facilitate optimized implementations such as index trees. Order is present only to resolve ambiguity: for that reason the stage in the sequence is referred to here and in [MODEL] as the "precedence" of the classifier stage: stages with higher values of precedence are compared first; the order of tests for entries of the same precedence is unimportant. An important form of classifier is "everything else": the final stage of the classifier i.e. the one with the lowest precedence, must be "complete" since the result of an incomplete classifier is not necessarily deterministic - see [MODEL] section 4.1.2. The definition of the actual filter to be used by the classifier is referenced via a RowPointer: this enables the use of any sort of filter table that one might wish to design, standard or proprietary. The filter table may be, but does not need to be, defined in this MIB module. The classifiers specified here are at the interface level i.e. they are indexed by ifIndex: they may be derived from some more general policies e.g. something based on interface roles, but such discussion is outside the scope of this document. See e.g. [POLTERM] section 4 for a discussion of Roles. 2.2.2. IP Six-Tuple Classifier Table This MIB includes a definition for an IP Six-Tuple Classifier, used for IP traffic classification. Entries in this filter table are referenced Baker, Chan, Smith Expires November 2000 [Page 4] Internet Draft Differentiated Services MIB May 2000 from the RowPointer diffServClassifierPattern attributes of classifier table entries. A Behavior Aggregate (BA) Classifier, acting only on DSCPs, is a simple form of the IP Six-Tuple Classifier. It is represented by having the diffServSixTupleClfrDscp attribute set to the desired DSCP and all other classification attributes set to match-all, their default settings. The alternative approach of providing a specific definition in this MIB for a BA Classifier was discussed and rejected. Each entry in the IP Six-Tuple Classifier Table defines a single filter. The textual convention of InetAddress [INETADDR] is used for both IPv4 and IPv6 addressing. The use of IP Six-Tuple Classifiers is discussed in [DSARCH] and abstract examples of how they might be configured are provided in [MODEL]. 2.3. Meters A meter, according to [MODEL] section 5, measures the rate at which packets making up a stream of traffic pass it, compares this rate to some set of thresholds and produces some number (two or more) of potential results. A given packet is said to "conform" to the meter if, at the time that the packet is being looked at, the stream appears to be within the meter's profile. MIB syntax makes it easiest to define this as a sequence of one or more cascaded pass/fail tests, modeled here as if-then-else constructs. It is important to understand that this way of modelling does not imply anything about the implementation being "sequential": multi-rate/multi- profile meters e.g. those designed to support [SRTCM] or [TRTCM], can still be modelled this way even if they, of necessity, share information between the stages: the stages are introduced merely as a notational convenience in order to simplify the MIB structure. 2.3.1. Meter Table The generic meter table is used as a base for all more specific forms of meter. The definition of the specific parameters of the meter to be used is referenced via a RowPointer: this enables the use of any sort of specific meter table that one might wish to design, standard or proprietary. The specific meter table may be, but does not need to be, defined in this MIB module. 2.3.2. Token-Bucket Meter Table This is included as an example of a common type of meter. Entries in this table are referenced from the RowPointer diffServMeterSpecific Baker, Chan, Smith Expires November 2000 [Page 5] Internet Draft Differentiated Services MIB May 2000 attributes of meter table entries. The parameters are represented by a rate diffServTBMeterRate and a burst size diffServTBMeterBurstSize. 2.4. Actions Actions include "no action", "mark the traffic with a DSCP", "drop the traffic" or "count it". Other tasks such as "shape the traffic" or "drop based on some algorithm" are handled elsewhere as queueing mechanisms, rather than actions, consistent with [MODEL]. The "multiplexer", "replicator" and "null" actions described in [MODEL] are accomplished implicitly by means of the RowPointer structures of the other elements. This MIB uses the Action Table diffServActionTable to organize one Action's relationship with the element(s) before and after it. It allows Actions to be cascaded to enable multiple Actions be applied to a single traffic stream by using each entry's diffServActionNext attribute. The last entry's diffServActionNext attribute may point to the next TCB element, normally a Queueing element. The parameters needed for each Action element will depend on the type of Action to be taken. Hence there are specific Action Tables for all the different Action types. This flexibility allows additional Actions be specified in future revisions of this MIB, or in other MIBs and also allows for the use of proprietary Actions without impact on those defined here. 2.4.1. DSCP Mark Action Table This Action is applied to traffic in order to mark it with a Diffserv Codepoint (DSCP) value, specified in the diffServDscpMarkActTable. Other marking actions might be specified elsewhere - these are outside the scope of this MIB. 2.4.2. Count Action Table Count Actions are used to count the traffic passing along a particular path through the model. If specified, they are likely to be placed first, before other types of Action. For example, when both a Count and an Absolute Dropper Action are specified, the Count Action needs to count the traffic stream before any traffic gets dropped. Note that there are counters contained directly in Algorithmic Dropper elements to indicate the amount of traffic dropped by those elements. Counters are arranged in a single table but with separate conformance statements for low-speed and high-speed interfaces, consistent with [IFMIB]. Baker, Chan, Smith Expires November 2000 [Page 6] Internet Draft Differentiated Services MIB May 2000 2.4.3. Absolute Drop Action This action just silently discards all traffic presented to it, without counting it. This action has no additional parameters and so is represented only as a diffServActionType of dropAlways without any specific parameters (diffServActionSpecific value will be null). 2.5. Queueing Elements These include Algorithmic Droppers, Queues and Schedulers. 2.5.1. Algorithmic Dropper Table Algorithmic Droppers have a close relationship with queueing: they are represented in this MIB by entries in an Algorithmic Dropper Table. Entries contain a "next" attribute which indicates to which queue they sink their traffic. They may also contain a pointer to specific detail of the drop algorithm. This MIB only defines the detail for one drop algorithm, Tail Drop; other algorithms are outside the scope of this MIB but the general framework is intended to allow for their inclusion in other modules. One generally-applicable parameter of a dropper is the specification of a queue-depth threshold at which some drop action is to start. This is represented in this MIB, as a base attribute of the Algorithmic Dropper entry, by pointing to the queue for which depth is to be compared and the threshold, in bytes, to compare against. o A Tail Dropper requires the specification of a maximum queue depth threshold: when the queue pointed at by diffServAlgDropQMeasure reaches that depth threshold, diffServAlgDropQThresh, any new traffic arriving at the dropper is discarded. o Random Droppers require more detailed specification of the characteristics of their drop functions. Representations of these functions are outside the scope of this MIB although they should use the available diffServAlgDropQMeasure and diffServAlgDropQThresh parameters where possible. Baker, Chan, Smith Expires November 2000 [Page 7] Internet Draft Differentiated Services MIB May 2000 As an example of a random dropper, RED-like droppers often have the function described as a plot of drop probability (P) against averaged queue length (Q). (Qmin,Pmin) defines the start of the characteristic plot. Normally Pmin=0, meaning with average queue length below Qmin, there will be no drops. (Qmax,Pmax) defines a "knee" on the plot, after which point the drop probability become more progressive (greater slope). (Qclip,1) defines the queue length at which all packets will be dropped. Notice this is different from Tail Drop because this uses an averaged queue length. It is possible for Qclip = Qmax. The calculation of the averaged queue length may also have an important bearing on the behaviour of the dropper: parameters may include the sampling interval and the weight of each sample. The performance may be very sensitive to the values of these parameters and a wide range of possible values may be required due to a wide range of link speeds. There is ongoing research on this topic, see e.g. [ACTQMGMT]. Deterministic Droppers can be viewed as a special case of Random Droppers with the drop probability restricted to 0 and 1. Hence Deterministic Droppers might be described by a Random Dropper with Pmin = 0, Pmax = 1, Qmin = Qmax = Qclip, the averaged queue length at which dropping occurs. Each dropper specification is associated with a queue. This allows multiple drop processes (of same or different types) be associated with the same queue, as different PHB implementations may require. This also allows for sequences of multiple droppers if necessary. 2.5.2. Queues and Schedulers The Queue Table models simple FIFO queues, as described in [MODEL] section 7.1.1. The Scheduler Table allows flexibility in constructing both simple and somewhat more complex queueing hierarchies from those queues. Of course, since TCBs can be cascaded multiple times on an interface, even more complex hierarchies can be constructed that way also. The entries in the Queue Table have attributes which include a specification of the scheduler which services the queue. They are pointed at by the "next" attributes of the upstream elements e.g. diffServMeterSucceedNext. Note that multiple upstream elements may direct their traffic to the same Queue Table entry. For example, the Assured Forwarding PHB suggests that all traffic marked AF11, AF12 or AF13 be placed in the same queue, after metering, without reordering. This would be represented by having the diffServMeterSucceedNext of each Baker, Chan, Smith Expires November 2000 [Page 8] Internet Draft Differentiated Services MIB May 2000 upstream meter point at the same entry in the Queue Table. The Scheduler Table represented in this MIB module contains entries, each of which represents the algorithm in use for servicing the one or more queues that feed it. The [MODEL] section 7.1.2 describes a scheduler with multiple inputs: this is represented in the MIB by including the scheduling parameters associated with a scheduler input in the Queue Table entry that feeds it and having that point at one particular Scheduler Table entry. In this way, sets of Queues can be grouped together as inputs to the same Scheduler. This table serves to represent the example scheduler described in the [MODEL]: other more complex representations might be created outside of this MIB. Each scheduler input, as represented by a Queue Table entry, is assigned a priority with respect to all the other inputs feeding the same scheduler. A higher-priority input will be serviced first over a lower- priority input, assuming that all guarantees have already been met. This priority parameter, used on its own with default values for the other parameters, serves to allow representation of a Strict Priority scheduler. For Weighted Queueing algorithms e.g. WFQ, WRR, the "weight" of a given scheduler input is represented with a Minimum Service Rate leaky-bucket profile which provides guaranteed bandwidth to that input, if required. This is represented, as were token-bucket meters, by a rate diffServQueueMinRateAbs and a burst size diffServQueueMinBurstSize. The rate may, alternatively, be represented by a relative value, as a fraction of the interface's current line rate, diffServQueueMinRateRel to assist in cases where line rates are variable or where a higher-level policy might be expressed in terms of fractions of network resources. The two rate parameters are inter-related and changes in one may be reflected in the other. An input may also be capable of acting as a non-work-conserving [MODEL] traffic shaper: this is done by defining a Maximum Service Rate leaky- bucket profile in order to limit the scheduler bandwidth available to that input. This is represented, similarly to the minimum rate, by a rate diffServQueueMaxRateAbs and a burst size diffServQueueMaxBurstSize. The rate may, alternatively, be represented by a relative value, as a fraction of the interface's current line rate, diffServQueueMaxRateRel. 2.5.3. Example of Algorithmic Droppers, Queues and Schedulers As an example, the hypothetical queue/scheduler configuration shown in [MODEL] section 8.1 is shown in Table 1. Baker, Chan, Smith Expires November 2000 [Page 9] Internet Draft Differentiated Services MIB May 2000 QId MinRate MaxRate Priority Scheduler --- ---------------- ---------------- -------- --------- 1 100kbps/20kbyte none/none 20 Scheduler.1 2 none/none 100kbps/100kbyte 40 Scheduler.1 3 200kbps/20kbyte none/none 20 Scheduler.1 4 none/none none/none 10 Scheduler.1 SchedId Type ------- ------------------ 1 weightedRoundRobin Table 1: Example Queue and Scheduler Parameters Queues 1 and 3 are serviced for long enough to give them their promised bandwidths and burst sizes, if they need them. Queue 2 is then serviced up to its maximum limit profile. Only then does Queue 4 get an opportunity to send its traffic. As an example of the use of the MIB structures, Figure 1 shows how the example would be represented. 2.5.4. Example of extending this MIB One way to extend this MIB structure to accomodate a more complex dropping algorithm might be to define a specific dropper table in another MIB module, pointed at by diffServAlgDropSpecific, containing its own parameters, as shown in figure 2. This algorithm might depend for its operation e.g. on feedback of a queue's depth but pre-processed by some type of smoothing function with its own parameters. The extended table could still use some of the fields of the standard Algorithmic Dropper Table, if relevant, although any divergent uses would have to be well-documented in the extended MIB. 2.6. The use of RowPointer RowPointer is a textual convention used to identify a conceptual row in an SNMP Table by pointing to one of its objects. In this MIB, it is used in two ways: to indicate indirection and to indicate succession. When used for indirection, as in the diffServClassifierTable, the idea is to allow other MIBs, including proprietary ones, to identify new and arcane classifiers - MAC headers, IP4 and IP6 headers, BGP Communities and all sorts of other things. When used for succession, it answers the question "what happens next?". Rather than presume that the next table must be as specified in the Baker, Chan, Smith Expires November 2000 [Page 10] Internet Draft Differentiated Services MIB May 2000 +-----------+ ----------------------->| Next -----+ | Min=Profl4| | | Max=none | | | Pri=20 | | | Type=fifo | | +-----------+ | Queue.ifIndex.1 | | +-----------+ +-----------+ | --->| Next -----+--->| Next ------+ | Thresh=1k | | | Min=none | | | Measure -----+ | Max=Profl5| | | Type=Tail | | Pri=40 | | | Spec=none | | Type=fifo | | +----------+ +-----------+ +-----------+ +--->| Next -----> 0.0 Dropper.1 Queue.ifIndex.2 | | Algrm=wrr| or next TCB | +----------+ +-----------+ +-----------+ | Scheduler.ifIndex.1 --->| Next -----+--->| Next -----+ | Thresh=2k | | | Min=Profl3| | | Measure -----+ | Max=none | | | Type=Tail | | Pri=20 | | | Spec=none | | Type=fifo | | +-----------+ +-----------+ | Dropper.2 Queue.ifIndex.3 | | +-----------+ +-----------+ | --->| Next ------+--->| Next -----+ | Thresh=4k | | | Min=none | | Measure -----+ | Max=none | | Type=Tail | | Pri=10 | | Spec=none | | Type=fifo | +-----------+ +-----------+ Dropper.3 Queue.ifIndex.4 Figure 1: Example of the use of Queueing elements Baker, Chan, Smith Expires November 2000 [Page 11] Internet Draft Differentiated Services MIB May 2000 +-----------+ +-----------+ --->| Next ------+--->| Next ---------> to Scheduler | Thresh=X | | | Min=none | | Measure -----+ | Max=none | | Type=Ext | | Pri=10 | | Spec -----+ | Type=fifo | +-----------+ | +-----------+ Dropper.3 | Queue.ifIndex.4 | | +-------------+ +--->|Smooth1=10 | |Smooth2=2000 | | | +-------------+ DropperExt.3 Figure 2: Example of extending the MIB for more complex droppers conceptual model [MODEL] and providing its index, the RowPointer takes you to the MIB row representing that thing. In the diffServMeterTable, for example, the diffServMeterFailNext RowPointer might take you to another meter, while the diffServMeterSucceedNext RowPointer would take you to an action. The RowPointer construct is used to build the TCBs described in [MODEL]: this MIB does not model TCBs directly - it operates at a lower level of abstraction using only individual elements, connected in succession by RowPointers. Therefore, the concept of TCBs enclosed in other more functional TCBs is not applicable to this MIB, although such a concept may be employed by management tools that use this MIB. Baker, Chan, Smith Expires November 2000 [Page 12] Internet Draft Differentiated Services MIB May 2000 3. Editorial information 3.1. Open Issues resolved in this draft (0) Terminology is more in line with [MODEL], [POLTERM] and [DSTERM]. Discarder -> "Algorithmic Dropper", "Monitor" -> "Counter" "Classifier element" -> "Filter" (1) Cascaded token-buckets is not equivalent to multi-rate token- bucket: do we need to fix this by allowing a multi-rate TB in the MIB? Or, by defining cascaded buckets to mean "multi-rate". (assume the latter - see text in 2.3) (2) Markers: model only describes DSCP-markers: do we need to be able to extend this to other sorts (e.g. 802.1p), even if we do not represent them in this MIB today? (yes). No MIB changes, just words. (3) Counters: should specific blocks include their own or is a "counter action", as described in the Model, sufficient to count all paths through a device? (as appropriate). Per-queue counters are derivable from "action" ones. Per-classifier counters: may feed through from clasifiers to distinct counter actions. (4) Queue Sets: are these generally applicable? (no). The example in section 2.5.1 is hard to follow: we should describe this example in [MODEL] and then show how it maps to MIB in the MIB draft. - DONE (5) Do we need scheduling units of "packets"? (NO) Should we use "kbps" or just "bps" for rates? DONE - all rates are in kbps. (6) Are "absolute" rates sufficient or should we include "relative to line speed" ones as well? (yes) - DONE - explained that these are interrelated. (7) Scheduler weights vs. rates vs. priorities: this is confusing - suggest we stick to rates and priorities (see Model draft 7.1.2) - DONE. (8) Queue Measure table: o This allows for RIO - multiple averaging functions for the same queue: is this needed? OUT OF SCOPE. Baker, Chan, Smith Expires November 2000 [Page 13] Internet Draft Differentiated Services MIB May 2000 o mixes config with status objects - split these? N/A. o do we need floating-point representation for "weight"? N/A. o do we need MIB visibility for average queue depth? N/A. o do we need MIB-configurable averaging functions (sample weight/interval)? (maybe just "sample weight") - NO: averaging functions will be left out although framework allows for their inclusion separately. (9) Counter compliance: paste text from IF-MIB re line-speeds. Do you still have to do the low-speed counters for fast interfaces? YES. DONE. (10) Meters: are these mandatory for compliance? NO (11) Discussion material: move most of this to Model draft e.g. most of 3.1, 3.3, "Dropper/discarder" part of 3.4, nearly all of 3.5. Just leave the "how does the MIB map from the Model" parts in the MIB draft, no general discussion. DONE. (12) Counters: merged in 32-bit and 64-bit counters - conformance statements sort out which ones must be implemented. This is consistent with [IFMIB]. DONE. (13) Droppers: we used to have a common "dropper" table that represented all of: dropAlways, randomDrop, tailDrop with just some parameters valid for the simpler ones. A simpler representation is to define specific dropper tables for each type (e.g. a single OID to point at for dropAlways since it is always the last action in a chain) but this would mean a larger number of (simpler) MIB objects. CHANGES: dropAlways is still an Action but the others are moved to a diffServAlgDropTable. This table can handle tail/head drop. Other algorithms, specifically RED, are out of scope for now but can be added using the framework defined here. (14) Should TBMeterTable just AUGMENT the MeterTable, should it use same indices or are separate structures linked by RowPointers preferable? SAME INDICES - DONE. (15) Do we need to model multiple queues feeding back into a single dropper algorithm? (yes). If so, the current single-queue pointer and threshold will not be adequate - should we leave them in? They will be useful for many, but not all, dropper algorithms. (yes) Baker, Chan, Smith Expires November 2000 [Page 14] Internet Draft Differentiated Services MIB May 2000 (17) We have concepts of "inbound" and "outbound" directions: but if we have a series of multiple TCBs on a given interface for the same direction (allowed by the model) then we do not have a way to indicate "this is the 1st one". Moreover, it is a somewhat convoluted process to then find the 2nd, 3rd etc. ones - you would have to follow the RowPointers to get there: should we explicitly have an index to enable/help these lookup operations? Note: this is not the same issue as needing a "precedence" for each filter entry of a classifier (yes) - added another index to classifiers to represent what "level" they operate at for a given interface/direction. 3.2. Still Open Issues (16) How should the creation of counter actions be under the control of manager or agent: should a diffServActionEntry and diffServCountActEntry appear by magic (the device surely knows what counters it can and cannot maintain on a given interface)? (assume no) If not, should diffServCountActEntry appear magically when a diffServAction element is created which points at the diffServCountActTable (then would be no need for diffServCountActStatus)? (assume no) (18) Should manager be allowed to create Queue elements or should agent be in control of this? (the former) (19) Should manager be allowed to create Scheduler elements or should agent be in control of this? (the former) (20) Related to (17) above, do we also need a "level" index for elements other than classifiers? (no) (21) Do we need diffServAlgDropType of both "headDrop" and "tailDrop" or should we just represent the tail dropper by placing a dropper after the queue instead of before the queue, as linked by the diffServQNext and diffServAlgDropNext RowPointers? (the former). (22) Do we need to support RED algorithms for algorithm parameter configuration and monitoring? If so, what variables are needed?

Acknowledgments This MIB builds on all the work that has gone into the conceptual model for diffserv routers. It has been developed with the active involvement of many people, but most notably Yoram Bernet, Steve Blake, Brian Carpenter, Dave Durham, Jeremy Greene, Roch Guerin, Scott Hahn, Keith McCloghrie, Kathleen Nichols, Ping Pan and Bert Wijnen. 6. Security Considerations It is clear that this MIB is potentially useful for configuration, and anything that can be configured can be misconfigured, with potentially disastrous effect. At this writing, no security holes have been identified beyond those that SNMP Security is itself intended to address. These relate primarily to controlled access to sensitive information and the ability to configure a device - or which might result from operator error, which is beyond the scope of any security architecture. There are a number of management objects defined in this MIB that have a MAX-ACCESS clause of read-write and/or read-create. Such objects may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. The support for SET operations in a non-secure environment without proper protection can have a negative effect on network operations. The use of SNMP Version 3 is recommended over prior versions for configuration control as its security model is improved. There are a number of managed objects in this MIB that may contain information that may be sensitive from a business perspective, in that they may represent a customer's service contract or the filters that the service provider chooses to apply to a customer's ingress or egress traffic. There are no objects which are sensitive in their own right, such as passwords or monetary amounts. It may be important to control even GET access to these objects and possibly to even encrypt the values of these object when sending them over the network via SNMP. Not all versions of SNMP provide features for such a secure environment. SNMPv1 by itself is not a secure environment. Even if the network itself is secure (for example by using IPSec), even then, there is no control as to who on the secure network is allowed to access and GET/SET (read/change/create/delete) the objects in this MIB. Baker, Chan, Smith Expires November 2000 [Page 61] Internet Draft Differentiated Services MIB May 2000 It is recommended that the implementers consider the security features as provided by the SNMPv3 framework. Specifically, the use of the User- based Security Model [12] and the View-based Access Control Model [15] is recommended. It is then a customer/user responsibility to ensure that the SNMP entity giving access to an instance of this MIB, 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. 7.
