Management Information Base for the Differentiated Services Architecture

This memo describes an SMIv2 (Structure of Management Information version 2) MIB for a device implementing the Differentiated Services Architecture. It may be used both for monitoring and configuration of a router or switch capable of Differentiated Services functionality. [STANDARDS TRACK]

RFC 3289              Differentiated Services MIB               May 2002


1.  The SNMP Management Framework

   The SNMP Management Framework presently consists of five major
   components:

      o  An overall architecture, described in [RFC 2571].

      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 is described
         in [RFC 1155], [RFC 1212] and [RFC 1215].  The second version,
         called SMIv2, is described in [RFC 2578], RFC 2579 [RFC 2579]
         and [RFC 2580].

      o  Message protocols for transferring management information.  The
         first version of the SNMP message protocol is called SNMPv1 and
         is described in [RFC 1157].  A second version of the SNMP
         message protocol, which is not an Internet standards track
         protocol, is called SNMPv2c and is described in [RFC 1901] and
         [RFC 1906].  The third version of the message protocol is
         called SNMPv3 and is described in [RFC 1906], [RFC 2572] and
         [RFC 2574].

      o  Protocol operations for accessing management information.  The
         first set of protocol operations and associated PDU formats is
         described in [RFC 1157].  A second set of protocol operations
         and associated PDU formats is described in [RFC 1905].

      o  A set of fundamental applications described in [RFC 2573] and
         the view-based access control mechanism described in [RFC
         2575].

   A more detailed introduction to the current SNMP Management Framework
   can be found in [RFC 2570].

   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 there
   is 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.
