2 Introduction
This document describes a model for managing pseudo wire services
for transmission over different flavors of MPLS tunnels. The
general PW MIB module [PW-MIB] defines the parameters global to the
PW regardless of underlying PSN and emulated service. Indicating
PSN type of MPLS in PW-MIB references this module.
This document describes the MIB objects that define pseudo wire
association to the MPLS PSN, in a way that is not specific to the
carried service.
Together, [TEMIB and LSRMIB], describe the modeling of an MPLS
Tunnel, and a Tunnel's underlying cross-connects. The defined MIB
support MPLS-TE PSN, Non TE MPLS PSN (an outer tunnel created by
LDP or manually), and MPLS PW label only (no outer tunnel).
Some flavors of MPLS, such as carrying PW in MPLS in IP and MPLS in
GRE are not defined here, waiting to the WG documents that will
describe the exact MPLS functionality. It still for further study
whether this functionality will be treated in this MIB module or in
another one specific to IP PSN.

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
[BCP14].
3 Terminology
This document uses terminology from the document describing the PW
architecture [PWARCH], [PWREQ] and [PWCNTRL].
The terms "Outbound" and "Inbound" in this MIB module are based on
the common practice in the MPLS standards, i.e. "outbound" are
toward the PSN. However, where these terms are used in an object
name, the object description clarifies the exact packet direction
to prevent confusion with these terms in other documents.
"PSN Tunnel" is a general term indicating a virtual connection
between the two PWE3 edge devices. Each tunnel may potentially
carry multiple PWs inside. In the scope of this document, it is
MPLS tunnel.
This document uses terminology from the document describing the
MPLS architecture [MPLSArch] for MPLS PSN. A Label Switched Path
(LSP) is modeled as described in [LSRMIB and TEMIB] via a series of
cross-connects through 1 or more Label switch routers (LSR).
In MPLS PSN, a PW connection typically uses a PW Label within a
Tunnel Label [TRANS]. Multiple pseudo wires each with a unique PW
Label can share the same Tunnel. For PW transport over MPLS, the
Tunnel Label is known as the "outer" Label, while the PW Label is
known as the "inner" Label. An exception to this is with adjacent
LSRs or the use of PHP. In this case, there is an option for PWs to
connect directly without an outer Label.
4 The Internet-Standard Management Framework
For a detailed overview of the documents that describe the current
Internet-Standard Management Framework, please refer to section 7
of RFC 3410 [RFC3410].
Managed objects are accessed via a virtual information store,
termed the Management Information Base or MIB. MIB objects are
generally accessed through the Simple Network Management Protocol
(SNMP). Objects in the MIB are defined using the mechanisms defined
in the Structure of Management Information (SMI). This memo
specifies a MIB module that is compliant to the SMIv2, which is
Zelig et al Expires June 2004 [page 3]
Pseudo Wire (PW) Over MPLS December 2003
Management Information Base
described in STD 58,RFC 2578 [RFC2578], STD 58, RFC 2579 [RFC2579]
and STD 58, RFC 2580 [RFC2580].
5 Feature Checklist
The PW MPLS MIB module is designed to satisfy the following
requirements and constraints:
- The MIB module supports both manually configured and signaled
PWs.
- The MIB module supports point-to-point PW connections.
- The MIB module enables the use of any emulated service.
- The MIB supports MPLS-TE outer tunnel, Non TE MPLS outer tunnel
(an outer tunnel signaled by LDP or set-up manually), and no
outer tunnel (where the PW label is the only label in the
incoming MPLS stack). The later case is applicable for manual
configuration of PW over a single hop (in multiple hops case, it
is required to have an outer MPLS tunnel).
6 MIB module usage
The MIB module structure for defining a PW service is composed from
three types of modules.
The first type is the PW-MIB module [PW-MIB], which configures
general parameters of the PW that are common to all types of
emulated services and PSN.
The second type of modules is per PSN module. There is a different
module for each type of PSN. This document defines the MIB module
for MPLS (PW-MPLS-MIB).
The third type of modules is service-specific module, which is
emulated signal type dependent. These modules are defined in other
documents; see for example [CEPMIB].
[PWTC] defines some of the object types used in this module.
6.1 PW-MPLS-MIB usage
- The PW table (pwVcTable) in [PW-MIB] is used for all PW types
(ATM, FR, Ethernet, SONET, etc.). This table contains high level
generic parameters related to the PW creation. A row is created by
the operator for each PW service.
Zelig et al Expires June 2004 [page 4]
Pseudo Wire (PW) Over MPLS December 2003
Management Information Base
- If the PSN type in pwVcTable is MPLS, the agent create a row in
the MPLS specific parameters table (pwMplsVcTable) in PW MPLS MIB,
which contain MPLS specific parameters such as EXP bits handling
and outer tunnel types.
- The operator configure the association to the desired MPLS
tunnel or tunnels through either the pwMplsTeMappingTable,
pwMplsNonTeMappingTable or both, depending on the desired outer
tunnel type. Each of the above tables may contain multiple entries
for the same PW, for example in protection configuration.
- The agent creates rows in the MPLS outbound tunnels table
(pwVcMplsOutboundTable) based on the configuration above. This
table allows quick access to the association tables through
pwVcIndex ordering.
The relation to the MPLS network is by configuration of the edge
LSR only - that is to say, the LSR providing the PW function. Since
Tunnels are uni-directional, a pair of tunnels must exist (one for
inbound, one for outbound). The following graphic depicts a VC that
originates and terminates at LSR-M. It uses LSPs A and B formed by
Tunnels Ax and Bx continuing through LSR-N to LSR-P. The
concatenations of Tunnels create the LSPs. Note: 'X' denotes a
Tunnel's cross-connect.

LSP-B
The PW-MPLS-MIB supports three options for MPLS network:
Zelig et al Expires June 2004 [page 5]
Pseudo Wire (PW) Over MPLS December 2003
Management Information Base
- In the MPLS-TE case, Tunnel A1 and B1 are created via the MPLS-TE
MIB [TEMIB]. The tunnels are associated to the PW by the (4)
indexes that uniquely identify the Tunnel at the TE-MIB.
- In the Non TE case, Tunnel A1 and B1 are either manually
configured or set up with LDP. The tunnels are associated to the PW
by the XC index in the MPLS-LSR-MIB [LSRMIB].
- In the PW label only case, there is no outer tunnel on top of the
PW label. This case is useful in case of adjacent PE only in manual
configuration. Note that when LSR-N acts as PHP for the outer
tunnel label, there are still entries for the outer tunnel in the
relevant MPLS MIB modules.
A combination of MPLS-TE outer tunnel(s) and LDP outer tunnel for
the same VC is allowed by creating the rows with the same pwVcIndex
with different MPLS tunnel indexes types.
It is worth noting that inbound (tunnel originated in the remote
PE) mapping is nor configured nor reported through the PW MPLS MIB
module since the local PE does not know the inbound association
between specific PW and MPLS tunnels.
6.2 Example of MIB module usage
Please see [PW-MIB] for detailed MIB usage example.

8 Security Considerations
Zelig et al Expires June 2004 [page 20]
Pseudo Wire (PW) Over MPLS December 2003
Management Information Base
It is clear that this MIB module is potentially useful for
monitoring of PW capable PEs. This MIB module can also be used for
configuration of certain objects, and anything that can be
configured can be incorrectly configured, with potentially
disastrous results.
There are a number of management objects defined in this MIB module
with a MAX-ACCESS clause of read-write and/or read-create. Such
objects may be considered 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. These are the tables and objects and their
sensitivity/vulnerability:
o the pwVcMplsTable, pwVcMplsNonTeMappingTable and
pwVcMplsTeMappingTable collectively contain objects to
provision PW over MPLS tunnels. Unauthorized access to
objects in these tables, could result in disruption of
traffic on the network. The use of stronger mechanisms
such as SNMPv3 security should be considered where
possible. Specifically, SNMPv3 VACM and USM MUST be used
with any v3 agent which implements this MIB module.
Administrators should consider whether read access to these
objects should be allowed, since read access may be
undesirable under certain circumstances.
Some of the readable objects in this MIB module "i.e., objects with
a MAX-ACCESS other than not-accessible" may be considered sensitive
or vulnerable in some network environments. It is thus important
to control even GET and/or NOTIFY access to these objects and
possibly to even encrypt the values of these objects when sending
them over the network via SNMP. These are the tables and objects
and their sensitivity/vulnerability:
o the pwVcMplsTable, pwVcMplsNonTeMappingTable,
pwVcMplsTeMappingTable and pwVcMplsOutboundTable
collectively show the PW over MPLS association.
If an Administrator does not want to reveal this
information, then these tables should be
considered sensitive/vulnerable.
SNMP versions prior to SNMPv3 did not include adequate security.
Even if the network itself is secure "for example by using IPSec",
even then, there is no control as to who on the secure network is
allowed to access and GET/SET "read/change/create/delete" the
objects in this MIB module.
It is RECOMMENDED that implementers consider the security features
as provided by the SNMPv3 framework "see [RFC3410], section 8",
Zelig et al Expires June 2004 [page 21]
Pseudo Wire (PW) Over MPLS December 2003
Management Information Base
including full support for the SNMPv3 cryptographic mechanisms "for
authentication and privacy".
Further, deployment of SNMP versions prior to SNMPv3 is NOT
RECOMMENDED. Instead, it is RECOMMENDED to deploy SNMPv3 and to
enable cryptographic security. It is then a customer/operator
responsibility to ensure that the SNMP entity giving access to an
instance of this MIB module, is properly configured to give access
to the objects only to those principals "users" that have
legitimate rights to indeed GET or SET "change/create/delete" them.
9 IANA considerations
As requested in the PW-TC-STD-MIB [PWTCMIB], PWE3 related standards
track MIB modules should be rooted under the pwStdMIB subtree. The
IANA is requested to assign { pwStdMIB 3 } to the PW-MPLS-STD-MIB
module specified in this document.
