1. The Network Management Framework
The Internet-standard Network Management Framework consists of three
components. They are:
RFC 1902 [1] which defines the SMI, the mechanisms used for
describing and naming objects for the purpose of management.
RFC 1213, STD 17, [3] which defines MIB-II, the core set of managed
objects for the Internet suite of protocols.
RFC 1905 [4] which defines the SNMP, the protocol used for network
access to managed objects.
The Framework permits new objects to be defined for the purpose of
experimentation and evaluation.
Managed objects are accessed via a virtual information store, termed
the Management Information Base or MIB. Within a given MIB module,
objects are defined using the SMI's OBJECT-TYPE macro. At a minimum,
each object has a name, a syntax, an access-level, and an
implementation-status.
The name is an object identifier, an administratively assigned name,
which specifies an object type. 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 object descriptor, to also refer to the object type.
The syntax of an object type defines the abstract data structure
corresponding to that object type. The ASN.1 [6] language is used for
this purpose. However, RFC 1902 purposely restricts the ASN.1
constructs which may be used. These restrictions are explicitly made
for simplicity.
The access-level of an object type defines whether it makes "protocol
sense" to read and/or write the value of an instance of the object
type. (This access-level is independent of any administrative
authorization policy.)
The implementation-status of an object type indicates whether the
object is mandatory, optional, obsolete, or deprecated.
2. Overview
This document continues the architecture created in the RMON MIB [12]
by providing RMON analysis for switched networks(SMON).
Remote network monitoring devices, often called monitors or probes,
are instruments that exist for the purpose of managing a network.
Often these remote probes are stand-alone devices and devote
significant internal resources for the sole purpose of managing a
network. An organization may employ many of these devices, one per
network segment, to manage its internet. In addition, these devices
may be used for a network management service provider to access a
client network, often geographically remote.
The objects defined in this document are intended as an interface
between an RMON agent and an RMON management application and are not
intended for direct manipulation by humans. While some users may
tolerate the direct display of some of these objects, few will
tolerate the complexity of manually manipulating objects to
accomplish row creation. These functions should be handled by the
management application.
2.1 Remote Network Management Goals
o Offline Operation
There are sometimes conditions when a management
station will not be in constant contact with its
remote monitoring devices. This is sometimes by
design in an attempt to lower communications costs
(especially when communicating over a WAN or
dialup link), or by accident as network failures
affect the communications between the management
station and the probe.
For this reason, this MIB allows a probe to be
configured to perform diagnostics and to collect
statistics continuously, even when communication with
the management station may not be possible or
efficient. The probe may then attempt to notify
the management station when an exceptional condition
occurs. Thus, even in circumstances where
communication between management station and probe is
not continuous, fault, performance, and configuration
information may be continuously accumulated and
communicated to the management station conveniently
and efficiently.
o Proactive Monitoring
Given the resources available on the monitor, it
is potentially helpful for it continuously to run
diagnostics and to log network performance. The
monitor is always available at the onset of any
failure. It can notify the management station of the
failure and can store historical statistical
information about the failure. This historical
information can be played back by the management
station in an attempt to perform further diagnosis
into the cause of the problem.
o Problem Detection and Reporting
The monitor can be configured to recognize
conditions, most notably error conditions, and
continuously to check for them. When one of these
conditions occurs, the event may be logged, and
management stations may be notified in a number of
ways.
o Value Added Data
Because a remote monitoring device represents a
network resource dedicated exclusively to network
management functions, and because it is located
directly on the monitored portion of the network, the
remote network monitoring device has the opportunity
to add significant value to the data it collects.
For instance, by highlighting those hosts on the
network that generate the most traffic or errors, the
probe can give the management station precisely the
information it needs to solve a class of problems.
o Multiple Managers
An organization may have multiple management stations
for different units of the organization, for different
functions (e.g. engineering and operations), and in an
attempt to provide disaster recovery. Because
environments with multiple management stations are
common, the remote network monitoring device has to |
deal with more than one management station,
potentially using its resources concurrently.
2.2 Switched Networks Monitoring
This document addresses issues related to applying "Remote
Technology" to Switch Networks. Switches today differ from standard
shared media protocols:
Data is not, in general, broadcast. This may be caused by the switch
architecture or by the connection-oriented nature of the data. This
means, therefore, the monitoring non-broadcast traffic needs to be
considered.
Monitoring the multiple entry and exit points from a switching device
requires a vast amount of resources - memory and CPU, and aggregation
of the data in logical packets of information, determined by the
application needs.
Switching incorporates logical segmentation such as Virtual LANs
(vLANs).
Switching incorporates packet prioritization.
Data across the switch fabric can be in the form of cells. Like RMON,
SMON is only concerned with the monitoring of packets.
Differences such as these make monitoring difficult. The current
RMON-1 and RMON-2 standards do not provide for things that are unique
to switches or switched environments.
In order to overcome the limitations of the existing standards, new
monitoring mechanisms have been implemented by vendors of switching
equipment. All these monitoring strategies are currently proprietary
in nature.
This document attempts to provide the framework to include different
switching strategies and allow for monitoring operations consistent
with the RMON framework. This MIB is limited to monitoring, and
control operations aimed in providing monitoring data for RMON
probes.
2.3 Mechanisms for Monitoring Switched Networks
The following mechanisms are used by SMON devices, for the purpose of
monitoring switched networks.
2.3.1 DataSource Objects
The RMON MIB standard [12] defines data source objects which point to
MIB-II interfaces, identified by instances of ifIndex objects.
The SMON MIB extends this concept and allows for other types of
objects to be defined as data sources for RMON and/or SMON data.
Three forms of dataSources are described:
ifIndex.<I>
Traditional RMON dataSources. Called 'port-based'
for ifType.<I> not equal to 'propVirtual(53)'.
smonVlanDataSource.<V>
A dataSource of this form refers to a 'Packet-based VLAN' and
is called a 'VLAN-based' dataSource. <V> is the VLAN ID, as
defined by the IEEE 802.1Q standard [14].
entPhysicalEntry.<N>
A dataSource of this form refers to a physical entity within
the agent and is called an 'entity-based' dataSource.
In addition to these new dataSource types, SMON introduces a new
group called dataSourceCapsTable to aid an NMS to discover dataSource
identity and attributes.
The extended data source mechanism supported by the SMON MIB allows
for the use of external collection points, similar to the one defined
and supported by the RMON-1 and RMON-2 MIBs, as well as internal
collection points(e.g. propVirtual ifTable entry, entPhysicalEntry).
The latter reflects either data sources which may be the result of
aggregation(e.g.switch-wide) or internal channels of physical
entities, which have the capability of being monitored by an SMON
probe.
2.3.2 Copy Port
In order to make the switching devices support RMON statistics, many
vendors have implemented a port copy feature, allowing traffic to be
replicated from switch port to switch port. Several levels of
configuration are possible:
1) 1 src port to 1 dst port
2) N src ports to 1 dst port
3) N src ports to M dst ports
The SMON standard presents a standard MIB interface which allows for
the control of this function.
Note that this function can apply to devices that have no other SMON
or RMON functionality than copy port. The agent of such a device
would support only the portCopyCaps and the portCopyConfig MIB
groups, out of the whole SMON MIB. Switch vendors are encouraged to
implement this subset of the SMON MIB, as it would allow for standard
port copy configuration from the same NMS application that does RMON
or SMON.
Port copy may cause congestion problems on the SMON device. This
situation is more likely occur when copying from a port of higher
speed to a port of lower speed or copy from multiple port to a single
port.
Particular implementations may chose to build protection mechanisms
that would prevent creation of new port copy links, when the capacity
of the destination port is exceeded. The MIB allows for
implementations to (if supported) instrument a destination drop count
on port copy to provide NMS applications a sense of the quality of
data presented at the destination port.
2.3.3 Vlan Monitoring
Vlan monitoring can be accomplished by using a VLAN-based dataSource
and/or by configuring smonVlanIdStats and/or smonVlanPrioStats
collections. These functions allow VLAN-ID or user priority
distributions per dataSource. Vlan monitoring provides a high-level
view of total Vlan usages and relative non-unicast traffic usage as
well as a profile of Vlan priority as defined in the 3-bit
user_priority field.
NOTE: priority stats reflect what was parsed from the packet, not
what priority, if any, was necessarily granted by the switch.
2.4 Relationship to Other MIBs
2.4.1 The RMON and RMON2 MIBs
The Remote Monitoring MIB (RMON-1) [12] provides several management
functions that may be directly or indirectly applicable to switched
networks.
The port copy mechanisms defined by the RMON MIB allow for the
destination ports to become data source for any RMON-1 statistics.
However, an NMS application should check whether it is in the device
capability(portCopyCap) to filter errors from a source to a
destination port and whether this capability is enabled, in order to
provide a correct interpretation of the copied port traffic.
RMON I host and matrix group statistics entries may be aggregated by
use of the extended dataSource capability defined in SMON. RMON II
groups are similarly extended through the use of SMON's dataSource
definition.
RMON-1 also defines a simple thresholding monitoring mechanism,
event-logging and event-notification for any MIB instance; SMON
utilizes the alarms and events groups from RMON-1 without
modification. These groups should be implemented on SMON devices if a
simple thresholding mechanism is desired.
The RMON II usrHistory group (user-defined history collection) should
be implemented by an SMON device if a history collection mechanism is
desired for smonStats entries.
2.4.2 The Interfaces Group MIB
The Interfaces Group MIB [5], [17] extends aspects of MIB-II [3].
This document discusses the 'interfaces' group of MIB-II, especially
the experience gained from the definition of numerous media- specific
MIB modules for use in conjunction with the 'interfaces' group for
managing various sub-layers beneath the internetwork- layer. It
specifies clarifications to, and extensions of, the architectural
issues within the previous model used for the 'interfaces' group.
The Interfaces Group MIB also includes a MIB module. As well as
including new MIB definitions to support the architectural
extensions, this MIB module also re-specifies the 'interfaces' group
of MIB-II in a manner that is both compliant to the SNMPv2 SMI and
semantically- identical to the existing SNMPv1-based definitions.
The SMON MIB utilizes the propVirtual(53) ifType defined in The
Interfaces Group MIB [17] to provide SMON and RMON with new
dataSources such as Vlans and internal monitoring points. NMS
applications should consult the SMON dataSource capabilities group
(dataSourceCap) for a description of these virtual interfaces.
2.4.3 The Entity MIB
The scope of the Entity MIB [13] is to allow an NMS to interrogate a
standard SNMP context and thereby discover what logical and physical
entities exist, how to access the MIB information of each logical
entity, and the relationships between the various entities. The MIB
should support both a single agent or multiple agents in one physical
entity.
A "physical entity" or "physical component" represents an
identifiable physical resource within a managed system. Zero or more
logical entities may utilize a physical resource at any given time.
It is an implementation-specific manner as to which physical |
components are represented by an agent in the entPhysicalTable.
Typically, physical resources (e.g. communications ports, backplanes,
sensors, daughter-cards, power supplies, the overall chassis, the
overall switch), which can be managed via functions associated with
one or more logical entities are included in the MIB.
The SMON MIB does not mandate Entity MIB support, but allows for
physical entities, as defined by this MIB to be defined as SMON data
sources. For such cases, the support for the entPhysicalTable is |
required.
2.4.4 The Bridge MIB
One of the important indicators for measuring the effectiveness of a
switching device is the ratio between the number of forwarded frames
and the number of dropped frames at the switch port.
It is out of the scope of this MIB to provide instrumentation
information relative to switching devices. However, such indication
may be part of other MIB modules.
For instance the Bridge MIB [18] provides such MIB objects, for the
802.1 bridges (dot1dTpPortInFrames, dot1dTpPortInDiscards) and
switches managed according to the 802.1 bridge model may provide this
information.
2.5 Relationship with IEEE 802.1 Standards
The SMON MIB provides simple statistics per vLAN and priority levels.
Those two categories of statistics are of higher importance for
switched networks managers. Interoperability for those features is
ensured by the use of the IEEE 802.1 p/Q standards ([14], [15])
defined by the IEEE 802.1 WG. Interoperability from the SMON MIB
point of view is ensured by referencing the IEEE definition of vLANs
and priority levels, for the SMON statistics.
3. SMON Groups |
3.1 SMON ProbeCapabilities |
The SMON probeCapabilities BITS object covers the following four |
capabilities.
- smonVlanStats(1) |
The probe supports the smonVlanStats object group.
- smonPrioStats(2) |
The probe supports the smonPrioStats object group.
- dataSource(3) |
The probe supports the dataSource object group.
- portCopy(4) |
The probe supports the portCopy object group.
*
3.2 smonVlanStats
The smonVlanStats MIB group includes the control and statistics
objects related to 802.1q Vlans. Specific statistics per 802.1q
virtual LAN are supported. The group provides a high level view of
total Vlan usage, and relative non-unicast traffic usage.
It is an implementation-specific matter as to how the agent
determines the proper default-VLAN for untagged or priority-tagged
frames.
3.3 smonPrioStats
The smonPrioStatsTable provides a distribution based on the
user_priority field in the VLAN header.
Note that this table merely reports priority as encoded in VLAN
headers, not the priority (if any) given the frame for actual
switching purposes.
3.4 dataSourceCaps
The dataSourceCaps MIB group identifies all supported data sources on
an SMON device. An NMS may use this table to discover the RMON and
Copy Port attributes of each data source.
Upon restart of the agent, the dataSourceTable, ifTable and
entPhysicalTable are initialized for the available data sources. The
agent may modify these tables as data sources become known or are
removed(e.g. hot swap of interfaces, chassis cards or the discovery
of Vlan usage). It is understood that dataSources representing VLANs
may not always be instantiated immediately upon restart, but rather
as VLAN usage is detected by the agent. The agent should attempt to
create dataSource and interface entries for all dataSources as soon
as possible.
For each dataSourceCapsEntry representing a VLAN or entPhysicalEntry,
the agent must create an associated ifEntry with a ifType value of
'propVirtual(53)'. This ifEntry will be used as the actual value in
RMON control table dataSource objects. The assigned ifIndex value is
copied into the associated dataSourceCapsIfIndex object.
3.5 portCopyConfig
The portCopyConfig MIB group includes the objects defined for the
control of the port copy functionality in a device.
The standard does not place a limit on the mode by which this copy
function may be used:
Mode 1 -- 1:1 Copy
Single dataSource copied to a single destination dataSource.
Agent may limit configuration based on ifTypes, ifSpeeds, half-
duplex/full-duplex, or agent resources. In this mode the single
instance of the portCopyDestDropEvents object refers to dropped
frames on the portCopyDest interface.
Mode 2 -- N:1 Copy
Multiple dataSources copied to a single destination dataSource.
Agent may limit configuration based on ifTypes, ifSpeeds, half-
duplex/full-duplex, portCopyDest over-subscription, or agent
resources. In this mode all N instances of the
portCopyDestDropEvents object should contain the same value, and
refer to dropped frames on the portCopyDest interface.
Mode 3 -- N:M Copy
Multiple dataSources copied to multiple destination dataSources.
Agent may limit configuration based on ifTypes, ifSpeeds, half-
duplex/full-duplex, portCopyDest over-subscription, or agent
resources. Since portCopyDestDropEvents is kept per destination
port, all instances of the portCopyDestDropEvents object
associated with(indexed by) a given portCopyDest should have the
same value(i.e. replicated or aliased for each instance associated
with a given portCopyDest).
The rows do not have an OwnerString, since multiple rows may be part
of the same portCopy operation. The agent is expected to activate or
deactivate entries one at a time, based on the rowStatus for the
given row. This can lead to unpredictable results in Modes 2 and 3
in applications utilizing the portCopy target traffic, if multiple
PDUs are used to fully configure the operation. It is recommended
that an entire portCopy operation be configured in one SetRequest PDU
if possible.
The portCopyDest object may not reference an interface associated
with a packet-based VLAN (rmonVlanDataSource.V), but this dataSource
type may be used as a portCopySource.
4. Control of Remote Network Monitoring Devices
Due to the complex nature of the available functions in these
devices, the functions often need user configuration. In many cases,
the function requires parameters to be set up for a data collection
operation. The operation can proceed only after these parameters are
fully set up.
Many functional groups in this MIB have one or more tables in which
to set up control parameters, and one or more data tables in which to
place the results of the operation. The control tables are typically
read/write in nature, while the data tables are typically read/only.
Because the parameters in the control table often describe resulting
data in the data table, many of the parameters can be modified only
when the control entry is not active. Thus, the method for modifying
these parameters is to de-activate the entry, perform the SNMP Set
operations to modify the entry, and then re-activate the entry.
Deleting the control entry causes the deletion of any associated data
entries, which also gives a convenient method for reclaiming the
resources used by the associated data.
Some objects in this MIB provide a mechanism to execute an action on
the remote monitoring device. These objects may execute an action as
a result of a change in the state of the object. For those objects
in this MIB, a request to set an object to the same value as it
currently holds would thus cause no action to occur.
To facilitate control by multiple managers, resources have to be
shared among the managers. These resources are typically the memory
and computation resources that a function requires.
The control mechanisms defined and used in this MIB are the same as
those defined in the RMON MIB [11], for control functionality and
interaction with multiple managers.

"This table describes RMON data sources and port copy capabilities.
An NMS may use this table to discover the identity and attributes of
the data sources on a given agent implementation. Similar to the
probeCapabilities object, actual row-creation operations will succeed
or fail based on the resources available and parameter values used
in each row-creation operation.
Upon restart of the RMON agent, the dataSourceTable, ifTable, and
perhaps entPhysicalTable are initialized for the available dataSources.
For each dataSourceCapsEntry representing a VLAN or entPhysicalEntry
the agent must create an associated ifEntry with a ifType value of
'propVirtual(53)'. This ifEntry will be used as the actual value
in RMON control table dataSource objects. The assigned ifIndex value
is copied into the associated dataSourceCapsIfIndex object.
It is understood that dataSources representing VLANs may not always
be instantiated immediately upon restart, but rather as VLAN usage
is detected by the agent. The agent should attempt to create
dataSource and interface entries for all dataSources as soon as
possible."

DESCRIPTION
" General attributes of the specified dataSource.
Note that these are static attributes, which should not
be adjusted because of current resources or configuration.
- countErrFrames(0)
The agent sets this bit for the dataSource if errored frames
received on this dataSource can actually be monitored by the agent.
The agent clears this bit is any errored frames are not visible to
the RMON data collector.
- countAllGoodFrames(1)
The agent sets this bit for the dataSource if all good frames received
on this dataSource can actually be monitored by the agent.
The agent clears this bit if any good frames are not visible for RMON
collection, e.g., the dataSource is a non-promiscuous interface or an
internal switch interface which may not receive frames which were |
switched in hardware or dropped by the bridge forwarding function.
- countAnyRmonTables(2)
The agent sets this bit if this dataSource can actually be used in
any of the implemented RMON tables, resources notwithstanding.
The agent clears this bit if this dataSourceCapsEntry is present
simply to identify a dataSource that may only be used as
portCopySource and/or a portCopyDest, but not the source of an
actual RMON data collection. |
- babyGiantsCountAsGood(3) |
The agent sets this bit if it can distinguish, for counting purposes,|
between true giant frames and frames that are larger than the media's|
'normal' maximum frame size due to Vlan tagging('baby giants'). |
Agents not capable of detecting 'baby giants' will clear this bit |
and, for example on ethernet, will view all frames less than or equal|
to 1518 octets as 'good frames' and all frames larger than 1518 octets|
as 'bad frames' for the purpose of counting in the smonVlanIdStats and |
smonVlanPrioStats tables. |
Agents capable of detecting 'baby giants' shall consider them as |
'good frames' for the purpose of counting in the smonVlanIdStats |
and smonVlanPrioStats tables." |

DESCRIPTION
" PortCopy function capabilities of the specified dataSource.
Note that these are static capabilities, which should not be adjusted
because of current resources or configuration.
- copySourcePort(0)
The agent sets this bit if this dataSource is capable of acting
as a source of a portCopy operation. The agent clears this bit
otherwise.
- copyDestPort(1)
The agent sets this bit if this dataSource is capable of acting as
a destination of a portCopy operation. The agent clears this bit
otherwise.
- copySrcTxTraffic(2)
If the copySourcePort bit is set:
The agent sets this bit if this dataSource is capable of
copying frames transmitted out this portCopy source.
The agent clears this bit otherwise. This function is
needed to support full-duplex ports.
Else this bit should be cleared.
- copySrcRxTraffic(3)
If the copySourcePort bit is set:
The agent sets this bit if this dataSource is capable of
copying frames received on this portCopy source.
The agent clears this bit otherwise. This function is
needed to support full-duplex ports.
Else this bit should be cleared.
- countDestDropEvents(4)
If the copyDestPort bit is set:
The agent sets this bit if it is capable of incrementing
portCopyDestDropEvents, when this dataSource is the target
of a portCopy operation and a frame destined to this dataSource is
dropped (for RMON counting purposes).
Else this BIT should be cleared.
- copyErrFrames(5)
If the copySourcePort bit is set:
The agent sets this bit if it is capable of copying all errored
frames from this portCopy source-port, for errored frames
received on this dataSource.
Else this BIT should be cleared.
- copyUnalteredFrames(6)
If the copySourcePort bit is set:
The agent sets this bit if it is capable of copying all frames
from this portCopy source-port without alteration in any way;
including, but not limited to:
- truncation (with or without CRC regeneration)
- proprietary header insertion
- MAC header rewrite
- VLAN retagging
Else this bit should be cleared.
- copyAllGoodFrames(7)
If the copySourcePort bit is set:
The agent sets this bit for the dataSource if all good frames
received on this dataSource are normally capable of being copied
by the agent. The agent clears this bit if any good frames are
not visible for the RMON portCopy operation, e.g., the dataSource
is a non-promiscuous interface or an internal switch interface
which may not receive frames which were switched in hardware or
dropped by the bridge forwarding function.
Else this bit should be cleared."

7. Security Considerations
In order to implement this MIB, an agent must make certain management
information available about various logical and physical entities
within a managed system, which may be considered sensitive in some
network environments.
Therefore, a network administrator may wish to employ instance-level
access control, and configure the Entity MIB access (i.e., community
strings in SNMPv1 and SNMPv2C), such that certain instances within
this MIB, are excluded from particular MIB views.
