Message Tracking MIB BOF (msgmib)
Tuesday, December 9 at 1545-1645
================================
Chair: Gordon B. Jones <gbjones@mitre.org>
DESCRIPTION:
Log: "Much work has been done in standards communities to
define standards for managing messaging using the Internet
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and Management
Information Bases (MIBs). Until this time, however, these
standards have focused upon aggregates of messages processed
by the messaging entity (e.g., the total number of messages
received over a specific time interval), but have not addressed
individual messages, their characteristics, or the path they
have taken through the messaging network. Several companies
have now implemented SNMP MIBs in accordance with an Internet
draft standard for message tracking. The resulting MIB is useful
for finding lost messages, but can also be used for accounting,
security auditing, message loop detection, and per-message
performance statistics".
