   The definition of QuotedString requires further explanation. A quoted
   string may contain special character sequences, all starting with the
   backslash character (%x5C). The interpretation of these sequences is
   as follows:

RFC 2593                    SMX Protocol 1.0                    May 1999


           `\\'   backslash character       (`%x5C')
           `\t'   tab character             (`HTAB')
           `\n'   newline character         (`LF')
           `\r'   carriage-return character (`CR')
           `\"'   quote character           (`DQUOTE')

   In all other cases not listed above, the backslash is dropped and the
   following character is treated as an ordinary character.  `Argument'
   and `Result' is either a QuotedString or a HexString.  The Script MIB
   defines script arguments and results as arbitrary octet strings. The
   SMX protocol supports a binary and a human readable representation
   since it is likely that printable argument and result strings will be
   used frequently. However, an implementation must be able to handle
   both formats in order to be compliant with the Script MIB.

   The `Cookie' is a HexString which does not carry any semantics other
   than being a random sequence of bytes. It is therefore not necessary
   to have a human readable representation.

5.2.  Commands

   The following ABNF definitions define the set of SMX commands which
   can be sent from the SNMP agent to a runtime system.

     Command =  "hello"   WSP Id CRLF

     Command =/ "start"   WSP Id WSP RunId WSP Script WSP Profile
                          WSP Argument CRLF

     Command =/ "suspend" WSP Id WSP RunId CRLF

     Command =/ "resume"  WSP Id WSP RunId CRLF

     Command =/ "abort"   WSP Id WSP RunId CRLF

     Command =/ "status"  WSP Id WSP RunId CRLF

   The `hello' command is always the first command sent over a SMX
   connection. It is used to identify and authenticate the runtime
   system. The `start' command starts the execution of a script. The
   `suspend', `resume' and `abort' commands can be used to change the
   status of a running script. The `status' command is used to retrieve
   status information for a running script.

   There is no compile command. It is the responsibility of the SNMP
   agent to perform any compilation steps as needed before using the SMX
   `start' command. There is no SMX command to shutdown a runtime
   system. Closing the connection must be interpreted as a request to

   terminate all running scripts in that runtime system and to shutdown
   the runtime system.

5.3.  Replies

   Every reply message starts with a three digit reply code and ends
   with `CRLF'. The three digits in a reply code have a special meaning.
   The first digit identifies the class of a reply message. The
   following classes exist:

     1yz   transient positive response
     2yz   permanent positive response
     3yz   transient negative response
     4yz   permanent negative response
     5yz   asynchronous notification

   The classes 1yz and 3yz are currently not used by SMX version 1.0.
   They are defined only for future SMX extensions.

   The second digit encodes the specific category. The following
   categories exist:

     x0z   syntax errors that don't fit any other category
     x1z   replies for commands targeted at the whole runtime system
     x2z   replies for commands targeted at scripts
     x3z   replies for commands targeted at running instances of scripts

   The third digit gives a finer gradation of meaning in each category
   specified by the second digit. Below is the ABNF definition of all
   reply messages and codes:

     Reply =  "211" WSP Id WSP Version WSP Cookie CRLF
                                   ; identification of the
                                   ; runtime system

     Reply =/ "231" WSP Id WSP RunState CRLF
                                   ; status of a running script

     Reply =/ "232" WSP Id CRLF    ; abort of a running script

     Reply =/ "401" WSP Id CRLF    ; syntax error in command

     Reply =/ "402" WSP Id CRLF    ; unknown command

     Reply =/ "421" WSP Id CRLF    ; unknown or illegal Script

     Reply =/ "431" WSP Id CRLF    ; unknown or illegal RunId

6.  Elements of Procedure

   This section describes in detail the processing steps performed by
   the SNMP agent and the runtime system with regard to the SMX
   protocol.

6.1.  SMX Message Processing on the Runtime Systems

   This section describes the processing of SMX command messages by a
   runtime engine and the conditions under which asynchronous
   notifications are generated.

   When the runtime system receives a message, it first tries to
   recognize a command consisting of the command string and the
   transaction identifier. If the runtime system is not able to extract
   both the command string and the transaction identifier, then the
   message is discarded. An asynchronous `511' reply may be generated in
   this case. Otherwise, the command string is checked to be valid, i.e.
   to be one of the strings `hello', `start', `suspend', `resume',
   `abort', or `status'.  If the string is invalid, a `402' reply is



Schoenwaelder & Quittek       Experimental                      [Page 9]

RFC 2593                    SMX Protocol 1.0                    May 1999


   sent and processing of the message stops.  If a valid command has
   been detected, further processing of the message depends on the
   command as described below.

   The command specific processing describes several possible syntax
   errors for which specific reply messages are generated. If the
   runtime engine detects any syntax error which is not explicitely
   mentioned or which cannot be identified uniquely, a generic `401'
   reply is sent indicating that the command cannot be executed.

6.1.1.  Processing the `hello' Command

   When the runtime system receives a `hello' command, it processes it
   as follows:

   1.   The runtime system obtains the security cookie from its process
        environment.

   2.   The runtime system sends a `211' reply containing the security
        cookie.

6.1.2.  Processing the `start' Command

   When the runtime system receives a `start' command, it processes it
   as follows:

   1.   The syntax of the arguments of the `start' command is checked.
        The following four checks must be made:

        (a)   The syntax of the `RunId' parameter is checked and a `431'
              reply is sent if any syntax error is detected.

        (b)   The syntax of the `Script' parameter is checked and a
              `421' reply is sent if any syntax error is detected.

        (c)   The syntax of the `Profile' parameter is checked and a
              `432' reply is sent if any syntax error is detected.

        (d)   If syntax of the `Argument' parameter is checked and a
              `433' reply is sent if any syntax error is detected.

   2.   The runtime system checks whether the new `RunId' is already in
        use. If yes, a `431' reply is sent and processing stops.

   3.   The runtime system checks whether the `Script' parameter is the
        name of a file on the local storage device, that can be read. A
        `421' reply is sent and processing stops if the file does not
        exist or is not readable.

RFC 2593                    SMX Protocol 1.0                    May 1999


   4.   The runtime system checks whether the security profile is known
        and sends a `432' reply and stops processing if not.

   5.   The runtime engine starts the script given by the script name.
        When the script has been started, a `231' reply is sent
        including the current run state.

   Processing of the `start' command stops, when the script reaches the
   state `running'. For each asynchronous state change of the running
   script, a `531' reply is sent. Processing of the `start' command is
   also stopped if an error occurs before the state `running' is
   reached. In this case, the run is aborted and a `535' reply is
   generated.

   If an `abort' command or a `suspend' command for the running script
   is received before processing of the `start' command is complete,
   then the processing of the `start' command may be stopped before the
   state `running' is reached. In this case, the resulting status of the
   running script is given by the respective reply to the `abort' or
   `suspend' command, and no reply with the transaction identifier of
   the `start' command is generated.

6.1.3.  Processing the `suspend' Command

   When the runtime system receives a `suspend' command, it processes it
   as follows:

   1.   If there is a syntax error in the running script identifier or
        if there is no running script matching the identifier, a `431'
        reply is sent and processing of the command is stopped.

   2.   If the running script is already in the state `suspended', a
        '231' reply is sent and processing of the command is stopped.

   3.   If the running script is in the state `running', it is suspended
        and a `231' reply is sent after suspending. If suspending fails,
        a `434' reply is sent and processing of the command is stopped.

   4.   If the running script has not yet reached the state `running'
        (the `start' command still being processed), it may reach the
        state `suspended' without having been in the state `running'.
        After reaching the state `suspended', a `231' reply is sent.

   5.   If the running script is in any other state, a `434' reply is
        sent.
