1.  Abstract

   This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB)
   for use with network management protocols in TCP/IP-based internets.
   In particular, it defines objects for managing devices which
   implement the FDDI.

2.  The Network Management Framework

   The Internet-standard Network Management Framework consists of three
   components.  They are:

RFC 1285                        FDDI MIB                    January 1992


      RFC 1155 which defines the SMI, the mechanisms used for describing
      and naming objects for the purpose of management.  RFC 1212
      defines a more concise description mechanism, which is wholly
      consistent with the SMI.

      RFC 1156 which defines MIB-I, the core set of managed objects for
      the Internet suite of protocols.  RFC 1213, defines MIB-II, an
      evolution of MIB-I based on implementation experience and new
      operational requirements.

      RFC 1157 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.

3.  Objects

   Managed objects are accessed via a virtual information store, termed
   the Management Information Base or MIB.  Objects in the MIB are
   defined using the subset of Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1) [5]
   defined in the SMI.  In particular, each object has a name, a syntax,
   and an encoding.  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 language is used for
   this purpose.  However, the SMI [1] purposely restricts the ASN.1
   constructs which may be used.  These restrictions are explicitly made
   for simplicity.

   The encoding of an object type is simply how that object type is
   represented using the object type's syntax.  Implicitly tied to the
   notion of an object type's syntax and encoding is how the object type
   is represented when being transmitted on the network.

   The SMI specifies the use of the basic encoding rules of ASN.1 [6],
   subject to the additional requirements imposed by the SNMP.

3.1.  Format of Definitions

   Section 5 contains contains the specification of all object types
   contained in this MIB module.  The object types are defined using the
   conventions defined in the SMI, as amended by the extensions



Case                                                            [Page 2]

   specified in [7].

4.  Overview

   This document defines the managed objects for FDDI devices which are
   to be accessible via the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).
   At present, this applies to these values of the ifType variable in
   the Internet-standard MIB:

               fddi(15)

   For these interfaces, the value of the ifSpecific variable in the
   MIB-II [4] has the OBJECT IDENTIFIER value:

               fddi    OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { transmission 15 }

   The definitions of the objects presented here draws heavily from
   related work in the ANSI X3T9.5 committee and the SMT subcommittee of
   that committee [8].  In fact, the definitions of the managed objects
   in this document are, to the maximum extent possible, identical to
   those identified by the ANSI committee.  The semantics of each
   managed object should be the same with syntactic changes made as
   necessary to recast the objects in terms of the Internet-standard SMI
   and MIB so as to be compatible with the SNMP.  Examples of these
   syntactic changes include remapping booleans to enumerated integers,
   remapping bit strings to octet strings, and the like.  In addition,
   the naming of the objects was changed to achieve compatibility.

   These minimal syntactic changes with no semantic changes should allow
   implementations of SNMP manageable FDDI systems to share
   instrumentation with other network management schemes and thereby
   minimize implementation cost.  In addition, the translation of
   information conveyed by managed objects from one network management
   scheme to another is eased by these shared definitions.

   Only the essential variables, as indicated by their mandatory status
   in the ANSI specification were retained in this document.  The
   importance of variables which have an optional status in the ANSI
   specification were perceived as being less widely accepted.

4.1.  Textual Conventions

   Several new datatypes are introduced as a textual convention in this
   MIB document.  These textual conventions enhance the readability of
   the document and ease comparisons with its ANSI counterpart.  It
   should be noted that the introduction of the following textual
   conventions has no effect on either the syntax nor the semantics of
   any managed objects.  The use of these is merely an artifact of the



Case                                                            [Page 3]

   explanatory method used.  Objects defined in terms of one of these
   methods are always encoded by means of the rules that define the
   primitive type.  Hence, no changes to the SMI or the SNMP are
   necessary to accommodate these textual conventions which are adopted
   merely for the convenience of readers and writers in pursuit of the
   elusive goal of clear, concise, and unambiguous MIB documents.
