1. Introduction
This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB)
for use with network management protocols in the Internet community.
In particular, it describes managed objects for specifying FEC to
NHLFE mappings and corresponding actions for Multiprotocol Label
Switching (MPLS).
On the ingress of an MPLS network, packets entering the MPLS domain
are assigned to a FEC. Those packets belonging to a forwarding
equivalency class (FEC) are associated with an NHLFE (i.e.: MPLS
label) via the FEC-to-NHLFE (FTN) mapping [RFC3031]. This relationship
defines how the an ingress LSR will impose MPLS labels onto incoming
packets. It also explains how egress LSRs will de-capsulate the MPLS
shim header from MPLS packets. It is important to note that an
NHLFE entry can redirect packets to either an LSP or a Traffic Engineered
(TE) Tunnel.
Conceptually, some of the FTN table functionality could be
implemented using the Forwarding Information Base (FIB) to map all
packets destined for a prefix to an LSP. However, this mapping is
coarse in nature.
Similar functionality is already being used in other contexts, such
as security filters, access filters, and for RSVP flow
identification. All of these require various combinations of
matching based on IP header and upper-layer header information to
identify packets for a particular treatment. When packets match a
particular rule, a corresponding action is executed against those
packets. For example, two popular actions to take when a successful
MPLS Working Group Expires May 2002 [Page 2]
Internet Draft MPLS-FTN MIB November 4, 2002
match is detected are allowing the packet to be forwarded or to
discard it. However, other actions are possible, such as modifying
the TOS byte, or redirecting a packet to a particular outgoing
interface.
This draft attempts to consolidate the various matching requirements
and associated action options needed for MPLS into a single
specification.
2. Terminology
Although all of the terminology used in this draft is either covered
in the MPLS Architecture [RFC3031] or in the SNMP Architecture
[RFC2571], it is informational to define some immediately pertinent
acronyms/terminology here.

3. Conventions used in this document
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
document are to be interpreted as described in RFC-2119 [2].
4. The SNMP Management Framework
The SNMP Management Framework presently consists of five major
components:
- An overall architecture, described in RFC 2571 [RFC2571].
- 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 STD
16, RFC 1155 [RFC1155], STD 16, RFC 1212 [RFC1212] and STD 16,
RFC 1215 [RFC1215]. The second version, called SMIv2, is
described in STD 58, RFC 2578 [RFC2578], STD 58, RFC 2579
[RFC2579] and STD 58, RFC 2580 [RFC2580].
- Message protocols for transferring management information. The
first version of the SNMP message protocol is called SNMPv1 and
described in STD 15, RFC 1157 [RFC1157]. A second version of the
SNMP message protocol, which is not an Internet standards track
protocol, is called SNMPv2c and described in RFC 1901 [RFC1901]
and RFC 1906 [RFC1906]. The third version of the message
MPLS Working Group Expires May 2002 [Page 3]
Internet Draft MPLS-FTN MIB November 4, 2002
protocol is called SNMPv3 and described in RFC 1906 [RFC1906],
RFC 2572 [RFC2572] and RFC 2574 [RFC2574].
- Protocol operations for accessing management information. The
first set of protocol operations and associated PDU formats is
described in STD 15, RFC 1157 [RFC1157]. A second set of
protocol operations and associated PDU formats is described in
RFC 1905 [RFC1905].
- A set of fundamental applications described in RFC 2573 [RFC2573]
and the view-based access control mechanism described in RFC 2575
[RFC2575].
A more detailed introduction to the current SNMP Management Framework
can be found in RFC 2570 [RFC2570].
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.
5. Outline
This MIB resides on any LSR which does the FEC-to-NHLFE mapping in
order to map traffic into the MPLS domain. The MIB consists of three
tables: The mplsFTNTable defines the rule base against which incoming
packets are matched and actions taken on matching packets. The
mplsFTNMapTable defines the application of these rules to specific
interfaces. Finally, the mplsFTNPerfTable provides performance
counters for every FTN entry that is active, on a per-interface
basis.
5.1. mplsFTNTable
This table allows FEC-to-NHLFE mappings to be specified and monitored.
Each entry in this table defines a rule to be applied to incoming packets
(on interfaces that the FTN entry is activated on using mplsFTNMapTable;
see Section 5.2) and an action to be taken on matching packets.
mplsFTNTable provides a 5-tuple (Source Addr, Dest Addr, Source Port,
DestPort, layer-4 Protocol) matching and allows addresses, port
MPLS Working Group Expires May 2002 [Page 4]
Internet Draft MPLS-FTN MIB November 4, 2002
ranges and the exp bits to be specified. The action pointer points
at either an MPLS-LSR MIB [LSRMIB] mplsXCEntry when the NHLFE entry
is a non-TE LSP, or it points at an mplsTunnelEntry in the MPLS-TE
MIB [TEMIB] if we wish to make the NHLFE the start of a TE tunnel.
5.2. mplsFTNMapTable
This table provides the capability to activate or map FTN entries
defined in mplsFTNTable to specific interfaces in the system. FTN
entries are compared with incoming packets in the order in which they
are applied on an interface. This order is specified by the order
in which the rules are specified to be applied. Specifically, entries
are arranged as a linked list of rules and are applied from the
lowest indexed rule to the highest. Each entry in the list provides
a forward and back pointer to possibly other mapping entries, as well
as a pointer to the mplsFTNEntry in question.
Due to the linked-list structure of this table, it provides a
mechanism to 'insert' an FTN entry between two existing FTN entries
already applied on an interface.
Using this linked-list structure, one can retrieve FTN entries in the
order of application on a per-interface basis as follows:
- To determine the first FTN entry on an interface with index
ifIndex perform a GETNEXT retrieval operation on
mplsFTNMapIndex.ifIndex.0.0; the returned object, if one
exists, is (say) mplsFTNMapIndex.ifIndex.0.n. Then the index of
the first FTN entry applied on this interface is n.
- To determine the FTN entry applied after the one indexed by n
perform a GETNEXT retrieval operation on
mplsFTNMapIndex.ifIndex.n.0; the returned object, if one
exists, is (say) mplsFTNMapIndex.ifIndex.n.m. Then the index of
the next FTN entry applied on this interface is m.
Use the above steps to retrieve all the applied FTN entries on a per-
interface basis in application order. Note that the number of
retrieval operations is the same as the number of applied FTN entries
(i.e. the minimum number of GETNEXT operations needed using any
indexing scheme).
5.3. mplsFTNPerfTable
This table provides performance counters for each FTN entry on a per-
interface basis. High capacity counters are provided for situations
where 32-bit counters would wrap around too quickly.
5.4 Pictoral Tabular Relationships
MPLS Working Group Expires May 2002 [Page 5]
Internet Draft MPLS-FTN MIB November 4, 2002
In this example, a single interface (ifIndex.1) is
configured with three FTN entries utilizing three mapping
table entries.
InterfacesMIB (RFC2863):
--->ifEntry.1
|
| mplsFTNMapTable:
|<---(mplsFTNMapIndex = 1,
| mplsFTNMapPrevIndex = 0, --> (empty) <----- |

| | |

(mplsFTNMapIndex = 1, | |
mplsFTNMapCurrIndex = 3) -----------------| |
|
mplsFTNPerfEntry: |
(mplsFTNMapIndex = 1, -------------------|
mplsFTNMapCurrIndex = 1)
6. Examples
Suppose that we want to activate the following FTN entries.
1. in ifIndex=1, dest addr=1.2.0.0 -> out ifIndex=50, out label=150
2. in ifIndex=1, dest addr=1.3.0.0 -> tunnel=4
In this case the tables will look as follows in the MPLS LSR, TE and
FTN MIBs.(Note that this is NOT an exhaustive list of all the objects
in every table and we only show those objects of interest that help
MPLS Working Group Expires May 2002 [Page 6]
Internet Draft MPLS-FTN MIB November 4, 2002
illustrate each case.)
Entry #1 results in the following.
In mplsFTNTable:
{
mplsFTNIndex = 1,
mplsFTNDescr = "FTN-1 for net 1.2.0.0",
mplsFTNMask = 0x40, -- destination address only
mplsFTNAddrType = ipv4,
mplsFTNDestIpv4AddrMin = 1.2.0.0,
mplsFTNDestIpv4AddrMax = 1.2.0.0,
mplsFTNActionType = redirectLsp,
mplsFTNActionPointer = mplsXCLspId.2.0.0.3
}
We indicate the LSP to redirect packets to by setting
mplsFTNActionPointer to the first column object of the XC entry
corresponding to this LSP, in this case mplsXCLspId.2.0.0.3 which
represents the following XC entry.
In mplsXCTable:
{
mplsXCIndex = 2,
mplsInSegmentIfIndex = 0, -- originating LSP
mplsInSegmentLabel = 0, -- originating LSP
mplsOutSegmentIndex = 3,
mplsXCLabelStackIndex = 0
}
Note that mplsInSegmentIfIndex and mplsInSegmentLabel values used to
index this XC entry are zero as is required for an originating LSP
[LSRMIB].
In mplsOutSegmentTable:
{
mplsOutSegmentIndex = 3,
mplsOutSegmentIfIndex = 50,
mplsOutSegmentPushTopLabel = true,
mplsOutSegmentTopLabel = 150
}
In mplsFTNMapTable:
{
mplsFTNMapIndex = 1,
mplsFTNPrevIndex = 0, -- first FTN entry on this interface
mplsFTNMapCurrIndex = 1,
}
Entry #2 results in the following.
MPLS Working Group Expires May 2002 [Page 7]
Internet Draft MPLS-FTN MIB November 4, 2002
In mplsFTNTable:
{
mplsFTNIndex = 2,
mplsFTNDescr = "FTN-2 for net 1.2.0.0",
mplsFTNMask = 0x40, -- destination address only
mplsFTNAddrType = ipv4,
mplsFTNDestAddrMin = 1.3.0.0,
mplsFTNDestAddrMax = 1.3.0.0,
mplsFTNActionType = redirectTunnel,
-- We assume that the ingress and egress LSR IDs are 1.1.1.1
-- and 2.2.2.2 respectively for this tunnel.
mplsFTNActionPointer = mplsTunnelName.4.0.4.1.1.1.1.4.2.2.2.2
}
In mplsTunnelTable:
{
mplsTunnelIndex = 4,
mplsTunnelInstance = 0, -- primary tunnel
mplsTunnelIngressLSRID = 1.1.1.1,
mplsTunnelEgressLSRID = 2.2.2.2
}
In mplsFTNMapTable:
{
mplsFTNMapIndex = 1,
mplsFTNPrevIndex = 1,
mplsFTNMapCurrIndex = 2
}
7. The Use of RowPointer
RowPointer is a textual convention used to identify a conceptual row
in a conceptual Table in a MIB by pointing to one of its objects. In
this MIB, in mplsFTNTable, the RowPointer object mplsFTNActionPointer
indicates the LSP or TE Tunnel to redirect packets matching an FTN entry
to. This object MUST point to the first instance of the first accessible
columnar object in the appropriate conceptual row in order to allow
the manager to find the appropriate corresponding entry in either
the MPLS-LSR MIB [LSRMIB] or MPLS-TE MIB [TEMIB]. If this object returns
zeroDotZero it implies that there is no currently defined action that
is associated with that particular FTN entry.

not currently used in the relevant table. The Command Generator
(Network Management Application) reads this variable and uses the

When the SET is performed, the Command Responder (agent) must
determine whether the value is indeed still unused; Two Network
Management Applications may attempt to create a row
(configuration entry) simultaneously and use the same value. If
it is currently unused, the SET succeeds and the Command

mplsFTNMapTable OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX SEQUENCE OF MplsFTNMapEntry
MAX-ACCESS not-accessible
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"This table contains objects for mapping previously
defined entries in mplsFTNTable to interfaces.
This table provides the capability to activate or map FTN
entries defined in mplsFTNTable to specific interfaces in the
system. FTN entries are compared with incoming packets in the
order in which they are applied on an interface. For this
reason, this table provides a mechanism to 'insert' an
FTN entry between two existing FTN entries already applied
on an interface.
Using this linked-list structure, one can retrieve FTN entries
in the order of application on a per-interface basis as follows:
- To determine the first FTN entry on an interface with index
ifIndex perform a GETNEXT retrieval operation on
mplsFTNMapIndex.ifIndex.0.0; the returned object, if one
exists, is (say) mplsFTNMapIndex.ifIndex.0.n. Then the index of
the first FTN entry applied on this interface is n.
- To determine the FTN entry applied after the one indexed by n
perform a GETNEXT retrieval operation on
mplsFTNMapIndex.ifIndex.n.0; the returned object, if one
exists, is (say) mplsFTNMapIndex.ifIndex.n.m. Then the index of
the next FTN entry applied on this interface is m.
Use the above steps to retrieve all the applied FTN entries on a
per-interface basis in application order. Note that the number of
retrieval operations is the same as the number of applied FTN
entries (i.e. the minimum number of GETNEXT operations needed using
any indexing scheme)."

MPLS Working Group Expires May 2002 [Page 17]
Internet Draft MPLS-FTN MIB November 4, 2002
order of application of FTN entries on an interface is
the order in which they will be compared against
incoming packets for a match. Each entry of this table
is indexed by the interface index that the FTN entry is
applied to, with the value 0 representing all
interfaces, the index of the previous FTN entry applied
on the interface and the index of the current FTN
entry. This linked-list structure allows FTN entries to
be inserted at arbitrary positions in the list. Agents
MUST NOT allow the same FTN entries to be applied
multiple times to the same interface. Agents MUST not
allow the creation of rows in this table until the
corresponding rows are created in the mplsFTNTable. If
the corresponding row in the FTN table is destroyed,
the agent MUST destroy the corresponding entries in
this table as well. Although it is strongly recommended
that managers destroy rows in this table in such a way
that keeps the remainder of the table consistent, agents
MUST ultimately make sure that if an entry in this table is
destroyed, that inconsistencies in the table are not allowed
to occur. To this end, rows that are no longer appropriate
should be taken out of service."

9. Security Considerations
It is clear that this MIB is potentially useful for configuration.
Anything that can be configured can be misconfigured, with
potentially disastrous effects.
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 many read-write and read-create management objects defined
in this MIB. Such objects are often 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.
