Mehul,

This is a question for the IETF's Bridge MIB working group, not for IEEE
802.1.

You are correct in identifying the SNMP MIB objects that control the GARP
applicants.

Subject: question about dot1qForwardAll/dot1qForwardUnregistered tables
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Hi,

I am in the process of implementing support for the 802.1Q MIB and
am having some confusion over the behavior associated with the
dot1qForwardAllTable and dot1qForwardUnregisteredTable. I am trying
to determine the actual effect these tables should have on the
forwarding
of multicast traffic. I have read and re-read the spec and the MIB but
at this point do not feel confident that I have a full (or even
half-full)
understanding of these objects. Any insight or information would be
greatly
appreciated.


My simplistic (probably overly simplistic) understanding of the
operation
is as follows (all objects are in same VLAN context):
    - If a packet is received for which a static address entry
      (dot1qStaticMulticastAddress) exist, it would be forwarded based
on
      the port list defined by dot1qStaticMulticastEgressPorts with no
      regard for set of ports defined by the dot1qForwardAllPorts or
      dot1qForwardUnregisteredPorts objects. What about ports that had
been
      added dynamically (i.e. ports that were not included in the
      dot1qMulticastForbiddenEgressPorts and had subsequently been added

      via GMRP) ?

    - If a packet is received for a dynamically registered multicast
address
      it would be forwarded to all ports the address had been registered
on as
      well as the set of ports included in the dot1qForwardAllPorts
object.

    - If a packet is received for an address for which there is not a
static
      entry or a dynamically registered entry it would be forwarded on
the set
      of ports included in the dot1qForwardUnregisteredPorts object and
      (this is where I'm really confused...) the set of ports included
in the
      dot1qForwardAllPorts object.

For example, assume a switch with 8 ports, all ports in forwarding state
and
all the information below is for a single VLAN:

    dot1qForwardAllPorts port list contains ports 2 and 3
    dot1qForwardUnregisteredPorts port list contains ports 4 and 5

    The filtering database contains:
    Static multicast address 1 (MC1) with ths following egress port
configuration:
        dot1qStaticMulticastEgressPorts : ports 6, 7
    Dynamically registered multicast address (MC2) : registered on ports
7, 8

Scenario 1:
  A packet is received on port 1 with a destination address of MC1.
Should
  it only be forwarded on ports 6 and 7 ?

Scenario 2:
  A packet is received on port 1 with a destination address of MC2.
Should
  it be forwarded on ports 2, 3, 7 and 8 ?

Scenario 3:
  A packet is recieved on port 1 with an destination address for which
there
  is no entry in the filtering database. Should this packet be forwarded
on
  ports 2, 3, 4 and 5 ?


Thanks for your assistance,

Steve,

It's a complicated topic as you have noticed. I assume you've attempted to
digest section 8.11 of IEEE 802.1Q - heavy going isn't it? Now take a
pepto-bismol. See below.

There are 3 states for a given static {MAC,VID,port} entry: Fixed, Forbidden
and Dynamic. Table 8-7 says that your first example would be Forwarded if
the port is in Fixed (i.e. in dot1qStaticMulticastEgressPorts) and it would
be Filtered if the port is Forbidden (i.e. in
dot1qMulticastForbiddenEgressPorts). If the port is in neither list, then it
is more complex: if the port is in the dot1qForwardAllPorts list then the
packet is Forwarded; if the port has been added dynamically by GMRP then it
is Forwarded; if the port is in the dot1qForwardUnregisteredPorts list but
has not been registered by GMRP then it is Forwarded; otherwise the packet
is Filtered. 

[This is actually a slightly simplistic explanation since the actual value
of dot1qForwardAllPorts is constrained by dot1qForwardAllStaticPorts and
dot1qForwardAllForbiddenPorts. Similarly for dot1qForwardUnregisteredPorts.
See table 8-6 for details on these]. Phew!

Correct.

Correct I think (last column of table 8-7): it would be forwarded to any
port in dot1qForwardUnregisteredPorts OR in dot1qForwardAllPorts.
 
Hope that is clear (???). Tables 8-6 and 8-7 say it all: in 802.1 parlance
it is all "clear but non-obvious".

Proposed Standard.  This document is the product of the Bridge MIB
Working Group.  The IESG contact persons are Bert Wijnen and Randy
Bush.

 
Technical Summary
 
 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 MAC bridges based on the IEEE
 802.1D-1998 MAC Bridges and IEEE 802.1Q-1998 Virtual LAN (VLAN)
 standards for bridging between Local Area Network (LAN) segments.

 Provisions are made for support of transparent bridging.  Provisions are
 also made so that these objects apply to bridges connected by
 subnetworks other than LAN segments.  This memo also includes several
 MIB modules in a manner that is compliant to the SMIv2 [V2SMI].


Working Group Summary

Protocol Quality

 The document was reviewed for the IESG by Dave Harrington.


Note to RFC Editor:

1. The IESG requests the RFC Editor to replace the abstract section with 
   the  following text:

    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 two MIB modules for managing
    the new capabilities of MAC bridges defined by the IEEE 802.1D-1998
    MAC Bridges and the IEEE 802.1Q-1998 Virtual LAN (VLAN) standards
    for bridging between Local Area Network (LAN) segments.  One MIB
    module defines objects for managing the 'Traffic Classes' and
    'Enhanced Multicast Filtering' components of IEEE 802.1D-1998.  The
    other MIB module defines objects for managing IEEE 802.1Q VLANs.

    Provisions are made for support of transparent bridging.
    Provisions are also made so that these objects apply to bridges
    connected by subnetworks other than LAN segments.  This memo also
    includes several MIB modules in a manner that is compliant to the
    SMIv2 [V2SMI].

    This memo supplements RFC 1493 [BRIDGEMIB] and (to a lesser extent)
    RFC 1525 [SBRIDGEMIB].

2. The IESG requests the RFC Editor to change the reference (in 
   reference section) [INTERFACEMIB] from RFC1573 to RFC2233 which 
   obsoleted the 1573

3. Note that Les Bell (one of the authors) has the nroff source in which
   he has already made these changes.
