Okay bestie, here's the title block tea β˜•

  • Number and title: RFC 1694, Definitions of Managed Objects for SMDS Interfaces using SMIv2
  • Authors: T. Brown and K. Tesink, who are the Editors, from Bell Communications Research πŸ’…
  • Category: Standards Track
  • Date: August 1994
  • Obsoletes: RFC 1304 😀 (this one is its replacement)
  • Updates: nothing listed in the title block

Status of this Memo ✨

This is an Internet standards track protocol document for the Internet community, and it's asking for discussion and suggestions to make it better 🫢 For the standardization state and status of this protocol, check the current edition of the "Internet Official Protocol Standards" (STD 1). Distribution of this memo is unlimited 🌈

Abstract πŸ¦‹

This memo defines a chunk of the Management Information Base (MIB) for use with network management protocols in TCP/IP-based internets. Specifically, it defines objects for managing the objects for SMDS access interfaces. The access protocols it covers are:

SIP [13]
SIP/DXI [18] and [20]
SIP/FR [19]
SIP/ATM [24]

This memo replaces RFC 1304 [12] and defines a MIB module that is both compliant with the SNMPv2 SMI and semantically identical to the existing RFC 1304-based definitions. Literally the glow-up with no changes to the meaning 🧚

This memo also assumes you're applying the MIB II Interfaces group as defined in [9] πŸ’œ

1. The SNMPv2 Network Management Framework ✨

Okay so the SNMPv2 Network Management Framework is made of four major components πŸ”₯ Here they are:

  • RFC 1442 [1] defines the SMI, which is the set of mechanisms used for describing and naming objects for the purpose of management.
  • STD 17, RFC 1213 [6] defines MIB-II, the core set of managed objects for the Internet suite of protocols. Reference [12] defines how the Interfaces Group of MIB II evolves, in terms of extensions and precise applications of the objects.
  • RFC 1445 [4] defines the administrative and other architectural aspects of the framework.
  • RFC 1448 [5] defines the protocol used for network access to managed objects.

The Framework lets new objects be defined for experimentation and evaluation πŸ§ͺ

This specification also makes use of:

  • RFC 1443 [2], which defines textual conventions for specifying managed objects.
  • RFC 1444 [3], which defines conformance statements for specifying managed objects.

2. Objects 🌸

Managed objects are accessed through a virtual information store called the Management Information Base, or MIB πŸ—‚οΈ Objects in the MIB are defined using the subset of Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1) [7] that the SMI defines. Each object has a name, a syntax, and an encoding. The name is an object identifier, which is an administratively assigned name that specifies an object type. The object type together with an object instance uniquely identifies one specific instantiation of the object. For human convenience, we often use a text string, called the OBJECT DESCRIPTOR, to refer to the object type too 🫢

The syntax of an object type defines the abstract data structure that corresponds to that object type, and ASN.1 is the language used for this. The SMI RFC 1442 purposely restricts which ASN.1 constructs may be used, and those restrictions are made explicitly for simplicity πŸŽ€

The encoding of an object type is simply how that object type gets represented using its syntax. Tied right in with the syntax and encoding is how the object type is represented when it's sent over the network 🌐 The SMI specifies the use of the basic encoding rules of ASN.1 [8], subject to the extra requirements that SNMP imposes.

2.1. Format of Definitions πŸ“

Section 4 contains the specification of all object types in this MIB module. The object types are defined using the conventions in the SMI, as amended by the extensions in the SNMPv2 SMI.

3. Overview 🧚

SMDS is a service that many different interface protocols can provide, as shown in the following figure πŸ‘‘

         +-------------------+   +-------------------+

In the figure below, managed objects for the protocol levels marked with a (*) are defined in this memo πŸ’– Additional managed objects that must be used to manage SMDS interfaces are defined in other MIB modules, as the figure indicates.

            ATM based access        FR based access

With the improved interpretation of the MIB II interfaces group [9], some objects can be represented by ifTable πŸ¦‹ That means these objects have been deprecated from the MIB module defined in RFC 1304, and ifTable is used instead. No semantic changes have been made to these objects. Only their object identifiers and object descriptors have changed, to the ones defined in ifTable πŸ’…

Implementation experience has shown that the objects sipL3UnrecognizedIndividualDAs and sipL3UnrecognizedGAs were not supported. πŸ™ˆ

3.1. SIP Level 3 ✨

okay so the SIP Level 3 objects cover every method of accessing SMDS shown in the figures above, bestie 🫢 and with the improved take on the MIB II interfaces group, most of them can just live in ifTable. the mapping is right below, no cap πŸ’…

ifTable Object     Use for
======================================================
 ifIndex           Interface index.

 ifDescr           Interface description.
                   For example, SIP Level 3 sublayer
                   of a SNI.

 ifType            Set to 31.

 ifMtu             Set to 9232.

 ifSpeed           Peak bandwidth in bits per second available
                   for use as provided by the supporting Level
                   2 protocol. For example, 1.17 Mbps when
                   using SIP based DS1 SNIs, and 1.536 Mbps
                   when using DXI-based DS1 DXI-SNI.

 ifPhysAddress     OCTET STRING of Size 8. Value is
                   a 16-digit Binary Coded Decimal
                   SMDS address that is
                   assigned to this interface.

 ifAdminStatus     The desired administrative status of the
                   SMDS interface.

 ifOperStatus      The current operational status of the
                   SMDS interface.

 ifLastChange      The elapsed time since the last
                   re-initialization of the interface.
                   The value of sysUpTime at the time the
                   interface entered its current
                   operational state. If the current
                   state was entered prior to the last
                   re-initialization of the local
                   network management subsystem, then
                   this object contains a zero value.

 ifInOctets        Number of received octets at SIP Level 3.
                   For SIP based SNIs, this is the number of
                   sipL2ReceivedCounts multiplied by 44.

 ifInUcastPkts     The total number of individually addressed
                   SIP Level 3 PDUs received from the remote
                   system across the SNI.  The total includes
                   only unerrored SIP Level 3 PDUs.
                   [identical to RFC1304:
                   sipL3ReceivedIndividualDAs]

 ifInDiscards      The number of received SIP Level 3 PDUs
                   discarded.  For SMDS interfaces, this
                   counter will always be zero.

 ifInErrors        The total number of SIP Level 3 PDUs
                   received from the remote system that were
                   discovered to have errors (including
                   protocol processing and bit errors but
                   excluding addressing-related errors) and
                   were discarded.  Includes both group
                   addressed SIP Level 3 PDUs and SIP Level
                   3 PDUs containing an individual
                   destination address.
                   [identical to RFC1304: sipL3Errors]

 ifInUnknownProtos The number of SIP Level 3 PDUs received
                   from the remote system with a Source or
                   Destination Address_Type subfields, (the
                   four most significant bits of the 64 bit
                   address field), not equal to the value
                   1100 or 1110.  Also, an error is
                   considered to have occurred if the
                   Address_Type field for a Source Address
                   is equal to 1110 (a group address).
                   [identical to RFC1304:
                   sipL3InvalidSMDSAddressTypes]

 ifOutOctets       Number of received octets for transmission
                   at SIP Level 3. For SIP based
                   SNIs, this is the number
                   of sipL2SentCounts multiplied by 44.

 ifOutUcastPkts    The number of individually addressed SIP
                   Level 3 PDUs that have been sent by this
                   system across the interface.
                   [identical to RFC1304:
                   sipL3SentIndividualDAs]

 ifOutDiscards     The number of SIP Level 3 PDUs discarded in
                   the egress direction.  For SMDS interfaces,
                   this counter will always be zero.

 ifOutErrors       The number of SIP Level 3 PDUs
                   discarded in the egress
                   direction, because of errors.
                   For SMDS interfaces, this counter will
                   always be zero.

 ifName            The textual name of the interface.
                   If not used, this variable contains
                   a zero-length string.

 ifInMulticastPkts The total number of group addressed SIP
                   Level 3 PDUs received from the remote
                   system across the interface.  The total
                   includes only unerrored SIP Level 3 PDUs.
                   [identical to RFC1304: sipL3ReceivedGAs]

 ifInBroadcastPkts This variable is not applicable for SMDS
                   interfaces.  Therefore, this counter is
                   always zero.

 ifOutMulticastPkts  The number of group addressed SIP Level 3
                     PDUs that have been sent by this system
                     across the interface.
                     [identical to RFC1304: sipL3SentGAs]

 ifOutBroadcastPkts  This variable is not applicable for SMDS
                     interfaces.  Therefore, this counter is
                     always zero.

 ifLinkUpDownTrapEnble The value of this object is
                       disabled(2) for SIP Level 3 interfaces.

 ifHighSpeed         Set to the user data rate of the
                     interface in millions of bits per second.
                     If the user data rate is less than 1 Mbps,
                     then this value is zero.

 ifPromiscuousMode   Set to false(2).

 ifConnectorPresent  Set to false(2).

Okay so we're still in the SIP Level 3 counters, and bestie, these are giving retired era πŸ’…πŸŒΈ. Most of the L3 packet counters are marked deprecated because they moved over to the ifTable, so the notes in the code point you to the ifTable versions instead πŸŽ€.

                 - Destination Address Field Format Error,

Okay bestie, this is where the error descriptions get really detailed 😭 I've kept the MIB text exactly as it is (typos included) so nothing gets lost in translation πŸ’…

                 The following pertains to the 60 least significant
                 bits of the 64 bit address field.  The 60 bits
                 contained in the address subfield can be used to
                 represent addresses up to 15 decimal digits.  Each
                 decimal digit shall be encoded into four bits
                 using Binary Coded Decimal (BCD), with the most
                 significant digit occurring left-most.  If not all
                 15 digits are required, then the remainder of this
                 field shall be padded on the right with bits set
                 to one.  An error is considered to have occurred:
                 a).  if the first four bits of the address
                 subfield are not BCD, OR b).  if the first four
                 bits of the address subfield are populated with
                 the country code value 0001, AND the 40 bits which
                 follow are not Binary Coded Decimal (BCD) encoded
                 values of the 10 digit addresses, OR the remaining
                 16 least significant bits are not populated with
                 1's, OR c).  if the address subfield is not
                 correct according to another numbering plan which
                 is dependent upon the carrier assigning the
                 numbers and offering SMDS.

                 - Source Address Field Format Error,

                 The description of this parameter is the same as
                 the description of the Destination Address Field
                 Format Error.

                 - Invalid BAsize Field Value,

                 An error is considered to have occurred when the
                 BAsize field of an SIP L3PDU contains a value less
                 that 32, greater than 9220 octets without the
                 CRC32 field present, greater than 9224 octets with
                 the CRC32 field present, or not equal to a
                 multiple of 4 octets,

                 - Invalid Header Extension Length Field Value,

                 An error is considered to have occurred when the
                 Header Extension Length field value is not equal
                 3.

                 - Invalid Header Extension - Element Length,

                 An error is considered to have occurred when the
                 Header Extension - Element Length is greater than
                 12.

                 - Invalid Header Extension - Version Element
                 Position, Length, or Value,

                 An error is considered to have occurred when a
                 Version element with Length=3, Type=0, and Value=1
                 does not appear first within the Header Extension,
                 or an element Type=0 appears somewhere other than
                 within the first three octets in the Header
                 Extension.

                 - Invalid Header Extension - Carrier Selection
                 Element Position, Length, Value or Format,

                 An error is considered to have occurred when a
                 Carrier Selection element does not appear second
                 within the Header Extension, if the Element Type
                 does not equal 1, the Element Length does not
                 equal 4, 6, or 8, the Element Value field is not
                 four BCD encoded decimal digits used in specifying
                 the Carrier Identification Code (CIC), or the
                 identified CIC code is invalid.

                 - Header Extension PAD Error

                 An error is considered to have occurred when the
                 Header Extension PAD is 9 octets in length, or if
                 the Header Extension PAD is greater than zero
                 octets in length and the Header Extension PAD does
                 not follow all Header Extension elements or does
                 not begin with at least one octet of all zeros.

                 - BEtag Mismatch Error,

                 An error is considered to have occurred when the
                 Beginning-End Tags in the SIP L3PDU header and
                 trailer are not equal.

                 - BAsize Field not equal to Length Field Error,

                 An error is considered to have occurred when the
                 value of the BAsize Field does not equal the value
                 of the Length Field.

                 - Incorrect Length Error, and

                 An error is considered to have occurred when the
                 the Length field value is not equal to the portion
                 of the SIP L3PDU which extends from the
                 Destination Address field up to and including the
                 CRC32 field (if present) or up to and including
                 the PAD field (if the CRC32 field is not present).
                 As an optional check, an error is considered to
                 have occurred when the length of a partially
                 received SIP L3PDU exceeds the BAsize value.

                 - MRI Timeout Error.

                 An error is considered to have occurred when the
                 elapsed time between receipt of BOM and
                 corresponding EOM exceeds the value of the MRI
                 (Message Receive Interval) for a particular
                 transport signal format.

                 An entry is indexed by interface number and error
                 type, and contains Source Address, Destination
                 Address and a timestamp. All these errors are

Okay bestie, that's the last of the object definitions πŸ’… The DXI counters wrap up with the Heart Beat Poll stuff, and then the compliance section gets super organized: the basics are mandatory for everyone, and the other groups only show up if your interface actually runs that particular protocol. Iconic, honestly πŸ¦‹
