This is a reminder, sent out once a month, about your ietf.org mailing
list memberships.  It includes your subscription info and how to use
it to change it or unsubscribe from a list.

You can visit the URLs to change your membership status or
configuration, including unsubscribing, setting digest-style delivery
or disabling delivery altogether (e.g., for a vacation), and so on.

In addition to the URL interfaces, you can also use email to make such
changes.  For more info, send a message to the '-request' address of
the list (for example, entmib-request@ietf.org) containing just the
word 'help' in the message body, and an email message will be sent to
you with instructions.

Hi All,

Do you think that we should schedule an Entity MIB meeting
in Korea?

The Entity MIB and our Entity MIB implementation reports
are now in the hands of the IESG.

The Entity State MIB is in a second WG Last Call, and we
don't yet have any negative review comments.  If we
receive Last Call comments, I hope that we can resolve
them and send this document to the IESG before Korea.

So, I don't think that we will have any work to do at
the next IETF meeting.  What do others think?

At this point, I personally think that the WG should
finish up these two work items (Entity MIB to DS and
Entity State MIB to PS), declare victory, and shut down.
What do others think about that plan?

Margaret

as you recall i still owe the list a draft I-D
with the supplemental objects we discussed before.
apologies for the delay; i'll post asap.
i personally dont think that those few objects merit
the scheduling of a meeting given previous

as you recall i still owe the list a draft I-D
with the supplemental objects we discussed before.
apologies for the delay; i'll post asap.
i personally dont think that those few objects merit
the scheduling of a meeting given previous
discussion on the topic.
as far as closing down the wg i'd appreciate
some delay to accommodate this supplemental work.

all,

attached is the supplemental entity miblet
discussed a while ago, supporting
- manufacturing date
- additional entity info
the latter uses the method proposed by dave
to convey information such as CLEIs.
i do recall that there were some different
views on whether to use an opaque encoding
method versus using a dedicated object, but
please read it over and provide any comments.

Abstract

   This document defines a portion of the Management Information Base
   (MIB) for use with network management protocols in TCP/IP based
   internets.  In particular, it describes additional objects that
   supplement those defined in the Definitions of Managed Objects for
   the Entity MIB document [RFCzzzz].

1.  Conventions

   The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
   "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and
   "OPTIONAL", when they appear in this document, are to be interpreted
   as described in RFC 2119 [RFC2119].

2.  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 described in STD 58,
   RFC 2578 [RFC2578], STD 58, RFC 2579 [RFC2579] and STD 58, RFC 2580
   [RFC2580].

3.  Overview

   The objects defined in this memo are used in conjunction with objects
   defined in the Entity MIB [RFCzzzz].  The MIB module defined in this
   memo is a sparse augmentation of the entPhysicalTable of the ENTITY-
   MIB -- i.e., it is REQUIRED that an agent implementing objects
   defined in this memo also implement the relevant ENTITY-MIB objects.

   The purpose of the augmentation of the entPhysicalTable is to define
   a managed object for the manufacturing date of a managed entity, and
   a managed object to support additional information related to the
   managed entity.

3.1.  entSupplPhysicalManufacturingDate

   This object contains the date of manufacturing of the managed entity.
   If the manufacturing date is unknown or not supported the object is
   not instantiated.

3.2.  entSupplPhysicalInfo

   This object provides additional information about the managed entity.
   For example, this object may be used to encode a CLEI (Common
   Language Equipment Identifier) Code [T1.213][T1.213a] for the managed
   physical entity by setting the prefix to the OID cleiCode, and by
   embedding the 10 octet CLEI code as the 10 subsequent components of

   the suffix, i.e., cleiCode.A.B.C.D.E.F.G.H.I.J.  If no additional
   information is known or supported about the managed entity the object
   is not instantiated.

7.  Security Considerations

   entSupplPhysicalInfo defined in this MIB module has a MAX-ACCESS
   clause of read-write; erroreous or unauthorized Writing of this
   object will result in the provision of misleading information to
   network management systems.

   The user of this MIB module must therefore be aware that support for
   SET operations in a non-secure environment without proper protection
   can have a negative effect on network operations.

   The readable objects in this MIB module (i.e., those with MAX-ACCESS
   other than not-accessible) may be considered sensitive in some
   environments since, collectively, they provide information about the
   managed entities and can reveal some aspects of their configuration.
   In such environments it is important to control even GET and NOTIFY
   access to these objects and possibly even to encrypt their values
   when sending them over the network via SNMP.

   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),
   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.

all,

attached is the supplemental entity miblet
discussed a while ago, supporting
- manufacturing date
- additional entity info
the latter uses the method proposed by dave
to convey information such as CLEIs.
i do recall that there were some different
views on whether to use an opaque encoding
method versus using a dedicated object, but
please read it over and provide any comments.

Abstract

   This document defines a portion of the Management Information Base
   (MIB) for use with network management protocols in TCP/IP based
   internets.  In particular, it describes additional objects that
   supplement those defined in the Definitions of Managed Objects for
   the Entity MIB document [RFCzzzz].

1.  Conventions

   The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
   "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and
   "OPTIONAL", when they appear in this document, are to be interpreted
   as described in RFC 2119 [RFC2119].

2.  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 described in STD 58,
   RFC 2578 [RFC2578], STD 58, RFC 2579 [RFC2579] and STD 58, RFC 2580
   [RFC2580].

3.  Overview

   The objects defined in this memo are used in conjunction with objects
   defined in the Entity MIB [RFCzzzz].  The MIB module defined in this
   memo is a sparse augmentation of the entPhysicalTable of the ENTITY-
   MIB -- i.e., it is REQUIRED that an agent implementing objects
   defined in this memo also implement the relevant ENTITY-MIB objects.

   The purpose of the augmentation of the entPhysicalTable is to define
   a managed object for the manufacturing date of a managed entity, and
   a managed object to support additional information related to the
   managed entity.

3.1.  entSupplPhysicalManufacturingDate

   This object contains the date of manufacturing of the managed entity.
   If the manufacturing date is unknown or not supported the object is
   not instantiated.

3.2.  entSupplPhysicalInfo

   This object provides additional information about the managed entity.
   For example, this object may be used to encode a CLEI (Common
   Language Equipment Identifier) Code [T1.213][T1.213a] for the managed
   physical entity by setting the prefix to the OID cleiCode, and by
   embedding the 10 octet CLEI code as the 10 subsequent components of

   the suffix, i.e., cleiCode.A.B.C.D.E.F.G.H.I.J.  If no additional
   information is known or supported about the managed entity the object
   is not instantiated.

7.  Security Considerations

   entSupplPhysicalInfo defined in this MIB module has a MAX-ACCESS
   clause of read-write; erroreous or unauthorized Writing of this
   object will result in the provision of misleading information to
   network management systems.

   The user of this MIB module must therefore be aware that support for
   SET operations in a non-secure environment without proper protection
   can have a negative effect on network operations.

   The readable objects in this MIB module (i.e., those with MAX-ACCESS
   other than not-accessible) may be considered sensitive in some
   environments since, collectively, they provide information about the
   managed entities and can reveal some aspects of their configuration.
   In such environments it is important to control even GET and NOTIFY
   access to these objects and possibly even to encrypt their values
   when sending them over the network via SNMP.

   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),
   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.

Hi All,

Just a reminder that we are currently in WG Last Call for the
Entity State MIB.  Please review this document before Friday
and send your feedback (positive or negative) to the list.

Given that this is a second WG Last Call for this document, that
several people reviewed it during the previous WG Last Call, and
that Sharon did a great job of maintaining an issue list and
documenting the resolution of each issue, I am planning to interpret
silence as agreement to send this document to the IESG.

So, if you have any objection to submitting this document for
publication as a Proposed Standard, please make that clear
by Friday.

Thanks,
Margaret

Hi All,

Just a reminder that we are currently in WG Last Call for the
Entity State MIB.  Please review this document before Friday
and send your feedback (positive or negative) to the list.

Given that this is a second WG Last Call for this document, that
several people reviewed it during the previous WG Last Call, and
that Sharon did a great job of maintaining an issue list and
documenting the resolution of each issue, I am planning to interpret
silence as agreement to send this document to the IESG.

So, if you have any objection to submitting this document for
publication as a Proposed Standard, please make that clear
by Friday.

Thanks,
Margaret

I would actually appreciate if the people who spoke up (a while ago)
that the MIB was too complex, that they do state if they are now
OK with this version!

PLEASE PARTICIPATE and express your opinion.

okay, okay...

I do not approve of, or object to, the Entity State MIB
going forward.  

My concerns are regarding the intent of the MIB -- the 
actual problem being addressed.  So I looked to the 
Entmib WG charter page for guidance.  This is all it
says about the Entity State MIB:

 Done    Publish state/status extensions as a WG I-D  

 Mar 04  Submit Entity State MIB to the IESG for Proposed Standard  

Not a word about the problem being addressed.

I thought we set out to add an 'operStatus' object for
physical entities -- a simple ( green, yellow, red )
status indicator.  Applications would still need to
know how to use other MIBs to diagnose or correct a fault.
IMO, there's not much value in a generic indicator beyond
this, so it's best to keep it simple.

 From the draft:

  "Objects are defined to capture administrative, operational and usage
   states. In addition there are further state objects defined to 
   provide additional information for these three basic states."

The document clearly attempts to provide more functionality
than a simple 'operStatus' object.  The authors have done
a fine job defining and documenting this functionality.

In order to discuss how well a MIB addresses its intended
function, we have to agree on the intended function.

comment on the MIB itself...

the TCs should be named with a prefix. E.g.,
OperState -> EntityOperState.  This applies to
all the TCs in the draft.

Hi

I don't understand where the impression that we were only planning on adding
a single object that gave operational status came from. My early
presentations on this topic outlined a large number of state objects that
could be defined and from that we whittled down to what we thought was a
reasonable set. Some people wanted more and some people wanted less.

okay, okay...

I do not approve of, or object to, the Entity State MIB
going forward.  

My concerns are regarding the intent of the MIB -- the 
actual problem being addressed.  So I looked to the 
Entmib WG charter page for guidance.  This is all it
says about the Entity State MIB:

 Done    Publish state/status extensions as a WG I-D  

 Mar 04  Submit Entity State MIB to the IESG for Proposed Standard  

Not a word about the problem being addressed.

I thought we set out to add an 'operStatus' object for
physical entities -- a simple ( green, yellow, red )
status indicator.  Applications would still need to
know how to use other MIBs to diagnose or correct a fault.
IMO, there's not much value in a generic indicator beyond
this, so it's best to keep it simple.

 From the draft:

  "Objects are defined to capture administrative, operational and usage
   states. In addition there are further state objects defined to 
   provide additional information for these three basic states."

The document clearly attempts to provide more functionality than a simple
'operStatus' object.  The authors have done a fine job defining and
documenting this functionality.

In order to discuss how well a MIB addresses its intended function, we have
to agree on the intended function.

Hi

I don't understand where the impression that we were only planning on adding
a single object that gave operational status came from. My early
presentations on this topic outlined a large number of state objects that
could be defined and from that we whittled down to what we thought was a
reasonable set. Some people wanted more and some people wanted less.

okay, okay...

I do not approve of, or object to, the Entity State MIB
going forward.  

My concerns are regarding the intent of the MIB -- the 
actual problem being addressed.  So I looked to the 
Entmib WG charter page for guidance.  This is all it
says about the Entity State MIB:

 Done    Publish state/status extensions as a WG I-D  

 Mar 04  Submit Entity State MIB to the IESG for Proposed Standard  

Not a word about the problem being addressed.

I thought we set out to add an 'operStatus' object for
physical entities -- a simple ( green, yellow, red )
status indicator.  Applications would still need to
know how to use other MIBs to diagnose or correct a fault.
IMO, there's not much value in a generic indicator beyond
this, so it's best to keep it simple.

 From the draft:

  "Objects are defined to capture administrative, operational and usage
   states. In addition there are further state objects defined to 
   provide additional information for these three basic states."

The document clearly attempts to provide more functionality than a simple
'operStatus' object.  The authors have done a fine job defining and
documenting this functionality.

In order to discuss how well a MIB addresses its intended function, we have
to agree on the intended function.

Hi

I've created issue 322 to track this.

The intention in creating the textual conventions was that they could be
used in other MIBs that wanted to define state/status objects. Prefixing
them with Entity makes this less obvious.

OperState -> EntityOperState.  This applies to

Hi All,

Could others please express their opinions on this issue?  Who
believes that these TCs should use a prefix (e.g. EntityOperStatus)
and why?  Who think that they should not include a prefix, and why?

Since we are not planning to meet in Seoul, it is important to
close this issue on the mailing list.

Thanks,
Margaret

Hi All,

Could others please express their opinions on this issue?  Who
believes that these TCs should use a prefix (e.g. EntityOperStatus)
and why?  Who think that they should not include a prefix, and why?

Since we are not planning to meet in Seoul, it is important to
close this issue on the mailing list.

Thanks,
Margaret

Speaking as technical contributor

In general, when a TC is clearly generic, then using the most
intuitive and generic name makes sense. In most cases, such a TC
would be better specified in a generic/independent document 
(or at least a separate MIB module).

As soon as a TC is specific to some technology or to some WG,
then prefixing it with the wg or technology-specific acronym
is the way to go.

Hi

Following comments were sent on 1/11/2004: But it is not taken care in 
the latest draft.
Hoping some one is carrying as part of Editorial fix
******
a Minor Suggestion:

Instead of having these OID definitions:

-- Notifications

  entStateTraps      OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { entityStateMIB 2 }
  entStateTrapPrefix OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { entStateTraps 0 }


We can have
entStateNotifs OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { entityStateMIB 0 }

and use 'entStateNotifs' in the corresponding NOTIFICATION-TYPE

Reason we would like to avoid name 'Traps' is: Latest RFCs refer them
as Notifications

Also, above OID tree structure will be inline with mib review guidelines 
document:
draft-ietf-ops-mib-review-guidelines-02.txt

**** 1/11/2004 comment ends


2. Regarding TC Names:
I would like to see TC with prefix  (for example: EntityOperStatus, 
EntityUsage state etc)

Reason(s) are :
  * It is obivious it is related to Entities
  * I don't think having a Generic TC 'OperState' automatically means it 
can be used outside the context of  Entity. Reason being other MIBs 
might need more than what is defined in this TC or most of them may not 
be applicable in some cases

TC name from 'review guideline draft says"
**
- Names of TCs that are specific to the MIB module and names of
     SEQUENCE types that are used in conceptual table definitions should
     start with a prefix Xxx that is the same as xxx but with the
     initial letter changed to upper case.  OPT-IF-MIB uses the prefix
     OptIf on the names of TCs and SEQUENCE types.
***

3. As per the MIB convention : We should define a OID under 
'entStateObjects'
  and use that in the xxxTable.
For example:
   entStateObjects OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { entityStateMIB 1}

add:
    entityState OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { entStateObjects 1}
use this 'entityState'(or whatever else makes sense) for entStateTable 
in the mib


4. entStateConformance must be under { entityStateMIB 2}

3.  I think OID definition for 'entityStateGroups' is missing
it should be
  entStateGroups OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { entStateConformance 2}

Thanks
Subra

Hi

Following comments were sent on 1/11/2004: But it is not taken care in 
the latest draft.
Hoping some one is carrying as part of Editorial fix
******
a Minor Suggestion:

Instead of having these OID definitions:

-- Notifications

  entStateTraps      OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { entityStateMIB 2 }
  entStateTrapPrefix OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { entStateTraps 0 }


We can have
entStateNotifs OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { entityStateMIB 0 }

and use 'entStateNotifs' in the corresponding NOTIFICATION-TYPE

Reason we would like to avoid name 'Traps' is: Latest RFCs refer them
as Notifications

Also, above OID tree structure will be inline with mib review guidelines 
document:
draft-ietf-ops-mib-review-guidelines-02.txt

**** 1/11/2004 comment ends


2. Regarding TC Names:
I would like to see TC with prefix  (for example: EntityOperStatus, 
EntityUsage state etc)

Reason(s) are :
  * It is obivious it is related to Entities
  * I don't think having a Generic TC 'OperState' automatically means it 
can be used outside the context of  Entity. Reason being other MIBs 
might need more than what is defined in this TC or most of them may not 
be applicable in some cases

TC name from 'review guideline draft says"
**
- Names of TCs that are specific to the MIB module and names of
     SEQUENCE types that are used in conceptual table definitions should
     start with a prefix Xxx that is the same as xxx but with the
     initial letter changed to upper case.  OPT-IF-MIB uses the prefix
     OptIf on the names of TCs and SEQUENCE types.
***

3. As per the MIB convention : We should define a OID under 
'entStateObjects'
  and use that in the xxxTable.
For example:
   entStateObjects OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { entityStateMIB 1}

add:
    entityState OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { entStateObjects 1}
use this 'entityState'(or whatever else makes sense) for entStateTable 
in the mib


4. entStateConformance must be under { entityStateMIB 2}

3.  I think OID definition for 'entityStateGroups' is missing
it should be
  entStateGroups OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { entStateConformance 2}

Thanks
Subra

Speaking as technical contributor

In general, when a TC is clearly generic, then using the most
intuitive and generic name makes sense. In most cases, such a TC
would be better specified in a generic/independent document 
(or at least a separate MIB module).

As soon as a TC is specific to some technology or to some WG,
then prefixing it with the wg or technology-specific acronym
is the way to go.

I agree with that ... and I would even say:

  entStateNotifications OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { entityStateMIB 0 }

Why make the descriptor more cryptic than needed?

I agree with that ... and I would even say:

  entStateNotifications OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { entityStateMIB 0 }

Why make the descriptor more cryptic than needed?

We originally considered doing the state/status extensions as
part of the Entity MIB, and those first discussion did mention
a single object.  However, by November 2002 we had a much more
complex model and agreed that it would be better to do this as
a separate MIB.

We agreed to accept the Entity State MIB as a WG document before
March 2003, and at that time it was at least as complex as it is
now.  We've been working on this MIB for over a year, and I
believe that it should take WG consensus to make a major
change to it now.  Do others agree?

In Minneapolis, the complexity of this MIB was raised as an issue.
There was a general sense of the room that the MIB was too
complex, but many people who were involved in earlier discussions,
including the editor, weren't present.  When the discussion was
brought to the mailing list, I did not see clear consensus that
we need to reduce the complexity of the MIB.

Sharon did try to address concerns about the complexity of this
MIB in the latest version by simplifying and streamlining the
description.

So, where do we stand on this issue?

Are there others who have read the current MIB and strongly
believe that it needs to be simplified?  Or not?

I don't disagree with you about the WG consensus.
I'm not objecting to the MIB going forward.  But I wouldn't
be surprised if application developers end up writing
a complex function to convert an entStateEntry to
a simple LED-type enum for the entity.

I'd say it's closed.
The WG doesn't think a simple operStatus type
of object is sufficient.

I didn't ask for the MIB to be simplified.

I could not get email out during the weekend. Anyway, here is what I
wrote down on this subject...

I have reviewed <draft-ietf-entmib-state-02.txt> and I like the
approach, as I have already said before. Below are some review
comments to take into account. Most are just editorial while some
might require some further discussion/thinking.

1) Change the end of the abstract from

	provide information about the state of the entity.

   to the following:

	provide information about the state of physical entities.

   Rationale: This MIB is specific to physical entities and since the
   ENTITY-MIB also has the concept of logical entities, I think it is
   better to more precise.

2) Description of StandByStatus, change

	"... but is will be immediately ..." 

   to the following:

	"... but will be immediately ..."

3) Description of entStateLastChanged, change 

   DESCRIPTION "The value of this object is the date and
               time when state/status of the entity
               last changed, or zero."

   to the following:

   DESCRIPTION "The value of this object is the date and
               time when state/status of the entity
               last changed, or '0000000000000000'H."

4) Description of entStateAdmin. I believe the following two sentences
   are kind of a contradiction:

             [...] This object can not
             be administratively set to 'notSupported'. For
             entities that do not support administrative state,
             changing the value of this object to something other
             than 'notSupported' is not permitted.  A value of
             'inconsistentValue' will be returned in either case.

   With the text in the second paragraph of the description clause, I
   think this can be fixed by just removing a sentence without loosing
   anything:

             [...] This object can not
             be administratively set to 'notSupported'. A value of
             'inconsistentValue' will be returned in either case.

5) Several description clauses refer to "entities within its
   containment hierarchy" followed by a sentence which limits this to
   the entities "having a value of entPhysicalContainedIn that refers
   to this entity". This somehow excludes transitive containment. Is
   this by intention or accident? I mean, if I have C contained in B
   contained in A, then A still provides indirect service to C.

6) AlarmStatus TC: I do not really understand the alarmOutStanding
   bit.  It seems like this is set whenever one of critical, major,
   minor, warning and indeterminate is set. But if this is true, I
   think the bit is not really terrible useful.

   Perhaps the bit has some other meaning. If so, please clarify.

7) The MIB did not compile because you once use
   entStateNotificationGroup and once you use
   entStateNotificationsGroup (see the plural s). Pick one.

8) I was surprised to read the entStateUsage description which says
   the UsageState is strictly bound to the containment relationship
   between entities.

   In general, the containment hierarchy is made up of containers and
   leafs. The entStateUsage description basically says that the
   UsageState is only interesting for containers since leafs are
   always busy. I found this interesting since the other objects do
   not make this distinction and some of them seem to particularly
   useful for leafs (e.g. interfaces). Perhaps it makes sense to
   define for each entState* column how it applies to containers and
   how it applies to leafs. For example, what does it mean to
   lock/unlock a container? (I believe entStateAdmin is more defined
   for leafs rather than containers.)

9) I am wondering why both notifications contain the entStateAlarm
   value, especially entStateOperEnabled notification. This surely is
   not wrong, but I am wondering what the rationale for including the
   entStateAlarm is (and for excluding other objects).

all,

the draft i sent to the list last week is now available at
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-tesink-entity-supplmib-00.txt

pl note that the file name was changed (my error).
in order to move this forward the WG would need
to accept this as a formal work item.

so we'd appreciate comments on
a) whether there is support/objection to do this work
b) any technical comments
while the minneapolis meeting already indicated some
tentative support, restating this or any new/additional
views would be helpful

Abstract

   This document defines a portion of the Management Information Base
   (MIB) for use with network management protocols in TCP/IP based
   internets.  In particular, it describes additional objects that
   supplement those defined in the Definitions of Managed Objects for
   the Entity MIB document [RFCzzzz].

1.  Conventions

   The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
   "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and
   "OPTIONAL", when they appear in this document, are to be interpreted
   as described in RFC 2119 [RFC2119].

2.  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 described in STD 58,
   RFC 2578 [RFC2578], STD 58, RFC 2579 [RFC2579] and STD 58, RFC 2580
   [RFC2580].

3.  Overview

   The objects defined in this memo are used in conjunction with objects
   defined in the Entity MIB [RFCzzzz].  The MIB module defined in this
   memo is a sparse augmentation of the entPhysicalTable of the ENTITY-
   MIB -- i.e., it is REQUIRED that an agent implementing objects
   defined in this memo also implement the relevant ENTITY-MIB objects.

   The purpose of the augmentation of the entPhysicalTable is to define
   a managed object for the manufacturing date of a managed entity, and
   a managed object to support additional information related to the
   managed entity.

3.1.  entSupplPhysicalManufacturingDate

   This object contains the date of manufacturing of the managed entity.
   If the manufacturing date is unknown or not supported the object is
   not instantiated.

3.2.  entSupplPhysicalInfo

   This object provides additional information about the managed entity.
   For example, this object may be used to encode a CLEI (Common
   Language Equipment Identifier) Code [T1.213][T1.213a] for the managed
   physical entity by setting the prefix to the OID cleiCode, and by
   embedding the 10 octet CLEI code as the 10 subsequent components of

   the suffix, i.e., cleiCode.A.B.C.D.E.F.G.H.I.J.  If no additional
   information is known or supported about the managed entity the object
   is not instantiated.

7.  Security Considerations

   entSupplPhysicalInfo defined in this MIB module has a MAX-ACCESS
   clause of read-write; erroreous or unauthorized Writing of this
   object will result in the provision of misleading information to
   network management systems.

   The user of this MIB module must therefore be aware that support for
   SET operations in a non-secure environment without proper protection
   can have a negative effect on network operations.

   The readable objects in this MIB module (i.e., those with MAX-ACCESS
   other than not-accessible) may be considered sensitive in some
   environments since, collectively, they provide information about the
   managed entities and can reveal some aspects of their configuration.
   In such environments it is important to control even GET and NOTIFY
   access to these objects and possibly even to encrypt their values
   when sending them over the network via SNMP.

   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),
   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.

all,

the draft i sent to the list last week is now available at
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-tesink-entity-supplmib-00.txt

pl note that the file name was changed (my error).
in order to move this forward the WG would need
to accept this as a formal work item.

so we'd appreciate comments on
a) whether there is support/objection to do this work
b) any technical comments
while the minneapolis meeting already indicated some
tentative support, restating this or any new/additional
views would be helpful

Abstract

   This document defines a portion of the Management Information Base
   (MIB) for use with network management protocols in TCP/IP based
   internets.  In particular, it describes additional objects that
   supplement those defined in the Definitions of Managed Objects for
   the Entity MIB document [RFCzzzz].

1.  Conventions

   The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
   "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and
   "OPTIONAL", when they appear in this document, are to be interpreted
   as described in RFC 2119 [RFC2119].

2.  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 described in STD 58,
   RFC 2578 [RFC2578], STD 58, RFC 2579 [RFC2579] and STD 58, RFC 2580
   [RFC2580].

3.  Overview

   The objects defined in this memo are used in conjunction with objects
   defined in the Entity MIB [RFCzzzz].  The MIB module defined in this
   memo is a sparse augmentation of the entPhysicalTable of the ENTITY-
   MIB -- i.e., it is REQUIRED that an agent implementing objects
   defined in this memo also implement the relevant ENTITY-MIB objects.

   The purpose of the augmentation of the entPhysicalTable is to define
   a managed object for the manufacturing date of a managed entity, and
   a managed object to support additional information related to the
   managed entity.

3.1.  entSupplPhysicalManufacturingDate

   This object contains the date of manufacturing of the managed entity.
   If the manufacturing date is unknown or not supported the object is
   not instantiated.

3.2.  entSupplPhysicalInfo

   This object provides additional information about the managed entity.
   For example, this object may be used to encode a CLEI (Common
   Language Equipment Identifier) Code [T1.213][T1.213a] for the managed
   physical entity by setting the prefix to the OID cleiCode, and by
   embedding the 10 octet CLEI code as the 10 subsequent components of

   the suffix, i.e., cleiCode.A.B.C.D.E.F.G.H.I.J.  If no additional
   information is known or supported about the managed entity the object
   is not instantiated.

7.  Security Considerations

   entSupplPhysicalInfo defined in this MIB module has a MAX-ACCESS
   clause of read-write; erroreous or unauthorized Writing of this
   object will result in the provision of misleading information to
   network management systems.

   The user of this MIB module must therefore be aware that support for
   SET operations in a non-secure environment without proper protection
   can have a negative effect on network operations.

   The readable objects in this MIB module (i.e., those with MAX-ACCESS
   other than not-accessible) may be considered sensitive in some
   environments since, collectively, they provide information about the
   managed entities and can reveal some aspects of their configuration.
   In such environments it is important to control even GET and NOTIFY
   access to these objects and possibly even to encrypt their values
   when sending them over the network via SNMP.

   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),
   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.

Kaj,

I was among the ones who supported doing this work. I did not change my =
mind.

Two comments:
1. I would like the title of the document to be more explicit about what =
is really provided by this MIB. 'Supplemental' is really too generic a =
title - what about something like 'Entity MIB Extensions for =
manufacturing and physical modules identification'?
2. Some of the concerns expressed in the meeting (not by me) were =
related to the availability and the proprietary nature of the CLEI =
codes. Can you comment on these? Are the documents mentioned in the =
REFERENCE clause of the cleiCode object freely available?

Thanks and Regards,

Dan

I see what you're trying to do. While this would more accurately reflect
the content, there is the issue of future compatibility. The problem with 
adding
new objects to MIBs over time is that
a) either you add to the original spec; but this means there's a problem
    with advancing the spec over time
b) or you define supplemental specs; the problem here is that you dont want
    all sorts of miblets around; you want to minimize the number
So, similar as what we did for ATM, and attempted for DS1s, the tactic was to
use this generic title, so that additional functions could still be added
for a while. I agree its not perfect. I also thought that in previous 
discussions
there were some thoughts about some additional functions(?).

You're right, some of that did come up before.
My understanding is the following:
- the references point to documents by different standards groups,
   and i think are available for a small fee at www.atis.org
- CLEI codes are defined in those standards;
   Telcordia is the registrar to obtain an actual code
In previous discussion it was pointed out that
while CLEIs are in wide use, there is no obligation to
use them; I've tried to reflect that in the draft
in two ways: (a) use an opaque object instead of a dedicated
object as proposed by Dave, and (b) language for the case
that the whole thing (no CLEI nor any other application
of the object) is not supported.

Kaj

I see what you're trying to do. While this would more accurately reflect
the content, there is the issue of future compatibility. The problem with 
adding
new objects to MIBs over time is that
a) either you add to the original spec; but this means there's a problem
    with advancing the spec over time
b) or you define supplemental specs; the problem here is that you dont want
    all sorts of miblets around; you want to minimize the number
So, similar as what we did for ATM, and attempted for DS1s, the tactic was to
use this generic title, so that additional functions could still be added
for a while. I agree its not perfect. I also thought that in previous 
discussions
there were some thoughts about some additional functions(?).

You're right, some of that did come up before.
My understanding is the following:
- the references point to documents by different standards groups,
   and i think are available for a small fee at www.atis.org
- CLEI codes are defined in those standards;
   Telcordia is the registrar to obtain an actual code
In previous discussion it was pointed out that
while CLEIs are in wide use, there is no obligation to
use them; I've tried to reflect that in the draft
in two ways: (a) use an opaque object instead of a dedicated
object as proposed by Dave, and (b) language for the case
that the whole thing (no CLEI nor any other application
of the object) is not supported.

Hi

For those of you not regularly visiting http://rt.psg.org (ietf, ietf), here
is the current list of open issues on the Entity State MIB. Most of these
have been discussed on the list already. I'll start posting proposed
resolutions to these to the list with the goal of closing them by the end of
the week so that I can make the ID deadline of Monday 9am.

A big thanks to everyone who took the time to review the document.

Hi

For those of you not regularly visiting http://rt.psg.org (ietf, ietf), here
is the current list of open issues on the Entity State MIB. Most of these
have been discussed on the list already. I'll start posting proposed
resolutions to these to the list with the goal of closing them by the end of
the week so that I can make the ID deadline of Monday 9am.

A big thanks to everyone who took the time to review the document.

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-306. The issue will be
considered closed pending the proposed edit being done.

Replace 

"
   entStateTraps      OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { entityStateMIB 2 }
   entStateTrapPrefix OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { entStateTraps 0 }"

With

"entStateNotifications OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { entityStateMIB 0 }" 
and update the definition of entStateOperEnabled and entStateOperDisabled to
use the new name.

"
 a Minor Suggestion:

Instead of having these OID definitions:

-- Notifications

   entStateTraps      OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { entityStateMIB 2 }
   entStateTrapPrefix OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { entStateTraps 0 }


We can have
 entStateNotifs OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { entityStateMIB 0 }
 
and use 'entStateNotifs' in the corresponding NOTIFICATION-TYPE

Reason we would like to avoid name 'Traps' is: Latest RFCs refer them 
as Notifications"

Randy Presuhn [randy_presuhn@mindspring.com]

"This would also bring it into better alignment with the MIB review 
guidelines."

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-307. The issue will be
considered closed pending the proposed edit being done.

Replace the enumeration 'notSupported' with 'notReportable' in each of the
TCs and any references within the text.

For each of the (TC, object definition) pairs, move the following sort of
text from the object definition to the textual convention:

"A value 
of 'notApplicable' means that this resource is unable to report [this] 
state."

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-308. The issue will be
considered closed with no changes made to the document.

The following explanations were provided and no questions were raised.

"
1. Is shutting down really more an operational state?

The state refers more to whether your administrative model allows 
systems to be shut down gracefully or not. The idea being that if it 
does, you would still have the options to bring it down less 
gracefully. We have allowed in the description of the object for 
systems that don't support this value for the state.

2. Would 'noNewUsage' be a better term. 

Well, except that the idea is that once all the existing 'users' are 
gone, the system will shut down. The term 'noNewUsage' does not really 
reflect that."

Sharon

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-308. The issue will be
considered closed with no changes made to the document.

The following explanations were provided and no questions were raised.

"
1. Is shutting down really more an operational state?

The state refers more to whether your administrative model allows 
systems to be shut down gracefully or not. The idea being that if it 
does, you would still have the options to bring it down less 
gracefully. We have allowed in the description of the object for 
systems that don't support this value for the state.

2. Would 'noNewUsage' be a better term. 

Well, except that the idea is that once all the existing 'users' are 
gone, the system will shut down. The term 'noNewUsage' does not really 
reflect that."

Sharon

Replace 

"

   entStateTrapPrefix OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { entStateTraps 0 }"

With

"entStateNotifications OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { entityStateMIB 0 }" 
and update the definition of entStateOperEnabled and entStateOperDisabled to
use the new name.

"
 a Minor Suggestion:

Instead of having these OID definitions:

-- Notifications

   entStateTraps      OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { entityStateMIB 2 }
   entStateTrapPrefix OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { entStateTraps 0 }


We can have
 entStateNotifs OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { entityStateMIB 0 }
 
and use 'entStateNotifs' in the corresponding NOTIFICATION-TYPE

Reason we would like to avoid name 'Traps' is: Latest RFCs refer them 
as Notifications"

Randy Presuhn [randy_presuhn@mindspring.com]

"This would also bring it into better alignment with the MIB review 
guidelines."

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-310. The issue will be
considered closed pending the proposed edit being done.

In the description of AlarmStatus replace

"            When the
             value of under repair is set, the resource is currently
             being repaired."

With

"            When the
             value of under repair is set, the resource is currently
             being repaired, which depending on the implementation, 
             may make the other values in this bit string unreliable."


And replace

"
             When the value of 'alarmOutstanding' is set, one or more
             alarms is active against the resource. The fault may or may
             not be disabling. "

With

"
             When the value of 'alarmOutstanding' is set, one or more
             alarms is active against the resource. The fault may or may
             not be disabling. This bit provides a high-level summary that 
             can be used to determine whether or not to examine the rest of
             the values."


An explanation on the difference between raw and computed state, as defined
in section 2.1 was previously provided in relation to the severity of alarms
issue. No change appears to be necessary on that particular issue.

think the bit is not really terrible useful.

Perhaps the bit has some other meaning. If so, please clarify."

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-312. The issue will be
considered closed with no changes made to the document.

I had proposed that logical locks were more useful and supportable from a
software perspective than physical ones. There was no response. I propose
keeping the definition as is.

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-322. The issue will be
considered closed with no changes made to the document.

There were various bits of discussion on the list on when it is appropriate
to use a MIB specific prefix on a textual convention and when it does not.
As the intention on these textual conventions is for general use it would
seem that a prefix is not appropriate. The proposal is to keep the names as
is.

Andy Bierman [abierman@cisco.com]

the TCs should be named with a prefix. E.g.,
OperState -> EntityOperState.  This applies to
all the TCs in the draft.

'that' does not seem to fit well

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-325. The issue will be
considered closed with no changes made to the document, other than those
already identified with issue #306.

The MIB review guidelines (August 2003) show the following


         xxxMIB
         |
         +-- xxxNotifications(0)
         +-- xxxObjects(1)
         +-- xxxConformance(2)
             |
             +-- xxxCompliances(1)
             +-- xxxGroups(2)


The MIB currently defines, after we make the change identified in problem
#306

 
         entStateMIB
         |
         +-- entStateNotifications(0)
         +-- entStateObjects(1)
         +-- entStateConformance(2)
             |
             +-- entStateCompliances(1)
             +-- entStateroups(2)      

This is without making any further changes related to these specific
comments.

Subrahmanya Hegde [subrah@cisco.com]:

"As per the MIB convention : We should define a OID under 
'entStateObjects'
  and use that in the xxxTable.
For example:
   entStateObjects OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { entityStateMIB 1}

add:
    entityState OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { entStateObjects 1}
use this 'entityState'(or whatever else makes sense) for entStateTable 
in the mib


4. entStateConformance must be under { entityStateMIB 2}

3.  I think OID definition for 'entityStateGroups' is missing it should 
be
  entStateGroups OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { entStateConformance 2} "

Andy Bierman [abierman@cisco.com]

"My concerns are regarding the intent of the MIB -- the 
actual problem being addressed.  So I looked to the 
Entmib WG charter page for guidance.  This is all it
says about the Entity State MIB:

 Done    Publish state/status extensions as a WG I-D  

 Mar 04  Submit Entity State MIB to the IESG for Proposed Standard  

Not a word about the problem being addressed.

I thought we set out to add an 'operStatus' object for
physical entities -- a simple ( green, yellow, red )
status indicator.  Applications would still need to
know how to use other MIBs to diagnose or correct a fault.
IMO, there's not much value in a generic indicator beyond
this, so it's best to keep it simple.

 From the draft:

  "Objects are defined to capture administrative, operational and usage
   states. In addition there are further state objects defined to 
   provide additional information for these three basic states."

The document clearly attempts to provide more functionality than a 
simple 'operStatus' object.  The authors have done a fine job defining 
and documenting this functionality.

In order to discuss how well a MIB addresses its intended function, we 
have to agree on the intended function.
"

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Andy Bierman [abierman@cisco.com]

"My concerns are regarding the intent of the MIB -- the 
actual problem being addressed.  So I looked to the 
Entmib WG charter page for guidance.  This is all it
says about the Entity State MIB:

 Done    Publish state/status extensions as a WG I-D  

 Mar 04  Submit Entity State MIB to the IESG for Proposed Standard  

Not a word about the problem being addressed.

I thought we set out to add an 'operStatus' object for
physical entities -- a simple ( green, yellow, red )
status indicator.  Applications would still need to
know how to use other MIBs to diagnose or correct a fault.
IMO, there's not much value in a generic indicator beyond
this, so it's best to keep it simple.

 From the draft:

  "Objects are defined to capture administrative, operational and usage
   states. In addition there are further state objects defined to 
   provide additional information for these three basic states."

The document clearly attempts to provide more functionality than a 
simple 'operStatus' object.  The authors have done a fine job defining 
and documenting this functionality.

In order to discuss how well a MIB addresses its intended function, we 
have to agree on the intended function.
"

Hi

The term "during" by its nature implies a span of time, rather than single
value. If we replaced "that" with "local system" would that work for you?

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-322. The issue will be
considered closed with no changes made to the document.

There were various bits of discussion on the list on when it is appropriate
to use a MIB specific prefix on a textual convention and when it does not.
As the intention on these textual conventions is for general use it would
seem that a prefix is not appropriate. The proposal is to keep the names as
is.

the TCs should be named with a prefix. E.g.,
OperState -> EntityOperState.  This applies to
all the TCs in the draft.

Hi



The term "during" by its nature implies a span of time, rather than single

value. If we replaced "that" with "local system" would that work for you?

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-325. The issue will be
considered closed with no changes made to the document, other than those
already identified with issue #306.

The MIB review guidelines (August 2003) show the following


         xxxMIB
         |
         +-- xxxNotifications(0)
         +-- xxxObjects(1)
         +-- xxxConformance(2)
             |
             +-- xxxCompliances(1)
             +-- xxxGroups(2)


The MIB currently defines, after we make the change identified in problem
#306

 
         entStateMIB
         |
         +-- entStateNotifications(0)
         +-- entStateObjects(1)
         +-- entStateConformance(2)
             |
             +-- entStateCompliances(1)
             +-- entStateroups(2)      

This is without making any further changes related to these specific
comments.

Subrahmanya Hegde [subrah@cisco.com]:

"As per the MIB convention : We should define a OID under 
'entStateObjects'
  and use that in the xxxTable.
For example:
   entStateObjects OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { entityStateMIB 1}

add:
    entityState OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { entStateObjects 1}
use this 'entityState'(or whatever else makes sense) for entStateTable 
in the mib


4. entStateConformance must be under { entityStateMIB 2}

3.  I think OID definition for 'entityStateGroups' is missing it should 
be
  entStateGroups OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { entStateConformance 2} "

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-327. The issue 
will be considered closed pending the proposed edit being done.

1) Change the end of the abstract from

	"provide information about the state of the entity."

   to the following:

	"provide information about the state of physical entities."

2) In the description to StandbyStatus replace

"      providing service, but is will be immediately able to"

With

"      providing service, but it will be immediately able to"

3) Note that the resolution to issue #311 covers this

4) In the description of entStateAdmin replace

"The administrative state for this entity. A value
                of 'notSupported' means that this entity is unable
                to report administrative state. This object can not
                be administratively set to 'notSupported'. For
                entities that do not support administrative state,
                changing the value of this object to something other
                than 'notSupported' is not permitted.  A value of
                'inconsistentValue' will be returned in either case."

With

"The administrative state for this entity. A value
                of 'notSupported' means that this entity is unable
                to report administrative state. This object can not
                be manually set to 'notSupported'. For
                entities that do not support administrative state,
                changing the value of this object to something other
                than 'notSupported' is not permitted.  A value of
                'inconsistentValue' will be returned in either case."

7) Replace

"
   entStateNotificationGroup NOTIFICATION-GROUP"

With

"
   entStateNotificationsGroup NOTIFICATION-GROUP
      "

"1) Change the end of the abstract from

	provide information about the state of the entity.

   to the following:

	provide information about the state of physical entities.

   Rationale: This MIB is specific to physical entities and since the
   ENTITY-MIB also has the concept of logical entities, I think it is
   better to more precise.

2) Description of StandByStatus, change

	"... but is will be immediately ..." 

   to the following:

	"... but will be immediately ..."

3) Description of entStateLastChanged, change 

   DESCRIPTION "The value of this object is the date and
               time when state/status of the entity
               last changed, or zero."

   to the following:

   DESCRIPTION "The value of this object is the date and
               time when state/status of the entity
               last changed, or '0000000000000000'H."

4) Description of entStateAdmin. I believe the following two sentences
   are kind of a contradiction:

             [...] This object can not
             be administratively set to 'notSupported'. For
             entities that do not support administrative state,
             changing the value of this object to something other
             than 'notSupported' is not permitted.  A value of
             'inconsistentValue' will be returned in either case.

   With the text in the second paragraph of the description clause, I
   think this can be fixed by just removing a sentence without loosing
   anything:

             [...] This object can not
             be administratively set to 'notSupported'. A value of
             'inconsistentValue' will be returned in either case.

<clip>

7) The MIB did not compile because you once use
   entStateNotificationGroup and once you use
   entStateNotificationsGroup (see the plural s). Pick one.

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-327. The issue 
will be considered closed pending the proposed edit being done.

1) Change the end of the abstract from

	"provide information about the state of the entity."

   to the following:

	"provide information about the state of physical entities."

2) In the description to StandbyStatus replace

"      providing service, but is will be immediately able to"

With

"      providing service, but it will be immediately able to"

3) Note that the resolution to issue #311 covers this

4) In the description of entStateAdmin replace

"The administrative state for this entity. A value
                of 'notSupported' means that this entity is unable
                to report administrative state. This object can not
                be administratively set to 'notSupported'. For
                entities that do not support administrative state,
                changing the value of this object to something other
                than 'notSupported' is not permitted.  A value of
                'inconsistentValue' will be returned in either case."

With

"The administrative state for this entity. A value
                of 'notSupported' means that this entity is unable
                to report administrative state. This object can not
                be manually set to 'notSupported'. For
                entities that do not support administrative state,
                changing the value of this object to something other
                than 'notSupported' is not permitted.  A value of
                'inconsistentValue' will be returned in either case."

7) Replace

"
   entStateNotificationGroup NOTIFICATION-GROUP"

With

"
   entStateNotificationsGroup NOTIFICATION-GROUP
      "

"1) Change the end of the abstract from

	provide information about the state of the entity.

   to the following:

	provide information about the state of physical entities.

   Rationale: This MIB is specific to physical entities and since the
   ENTITY-MIB also has the concept of logical entities, I think it is
   better to more precise.

2) Description of StandByStatus, change

	"... but is will be immediately ..." 

   to the following:

	"... but will be immediately ..."

3) Description of entStateLastChanged, change 

   DESCRIPTION "The value of this object is the date and
               time when state/status of the entity
               last changed, or zero."

   to the following:

   DESCRIPTION "The value of this object is the date and
               time when state/status of the entity
               last changed, or '0000000000000000'H."

4) Description of entStateAdmin. I believe the following two sentences
   are kind of a contradiction:

             [...] This object can not
             be administratively set to 'notSupported'. For
             entities that do not support administrative state,
             changing the value of this object to something other
             than 'notSupported' is not permitted.  A value of
             'inconsistentValue' will be returned in either case.

   With the text in the second paragraph of the description clause, I
   think this can be fixed by just removing a sentence without loosing
   anything:

             [...] This object can not
             be administratively set to 'notSupported'. A value of
             'inconsistentValue' will be returned in either case.

<clip>

7) The MIB did not compile because you once use
   entStateNotificationGroup and once you use
   entStateNotificationsGroup (see the plural s). Pick one.

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-329. The issue will be
considered closed with no changes made to the document.

Well, this is the one object that most directly relates to its child
component. Our definition only talks about child components in terms of
physical entities. So, the ability of a port to 'contain' an logical
interface isn't reported by this status. I might be convinced to change the
definition but I think this concepts starts getting harder to describe and
understand when we start mixing physical containment and logical to physical
mappings. 

I worry that talking about leafs and containers might confuse people. The
current definition speaks in terms of whether something else can be
contained in it. This is more consistent with the rest of the discussion.

"I was surprised to read the entStateUsage description which says
   the UsageState is strictly bound to the containment relationship
   between entities.

   In general, the containment hierarchy is made up of containers and
   leafs. The entStateUsage description basically says that the
   UsageState is only interesting for containers since leafs are
   always busy. I found this interesting since the other objects do
   not make this distinction and some of them seem to particularly
   useful for leafs (e.g. interfaces). Perhaps it makes sense to
   define for each entState* column how it applies to containers and
   how it applies to leafs. For example, what does it mean to
   lock/unlock a container? (I believe entStateAdmin is more defined
   for leafs rather than containers.)"

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-330. The issue 
will be considered closed with no changes made to the document.

The notifications tell when the operational state for the given
entPhysicalIndex has changed. The notification contains the two varbinds
entStateAdmin and entStateAlarm. entPhysicalIndex can be extracted from one
of those varbinds. The missing information is then the usage state, which is
not that interesting from a fault management perspective and the standyby
state which is usually going to be 'providingService'. I think we get the
usefulness of admin status. The alarm status tells you how many outstanding
problems have been reported against this entity. This is interesting from a
fault management perspective.

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-329. The issue will be
considered closed with no changes made to the document.

Well, this is the one object that most directly relates to its child
component. Our definition only talks about child components in terms of
physical entities. So, the ability of a port to 'contain' an logical
interface isn't reported by this status. I might be convinced to change the
definition but I think this concepts starts getting harder to describe and
understand when we start mixing physical containment and logical to physical
mappings. 

I worry that talking about leafs and containers might confuse people. The
current definition speaks in terms of whether something else can be
contained in it. This is more consistent with the rest of the discussion.

"I was surprised to read the entStateUsage description which says
   the UsageState is strictly bound to the containment relationship
   between entities.

   In general, the containment hierarchy is made up of containers and
   leafs. The entStateUsage description basically says that the
   UsageState is only interesting for containers since leafs are
   always busy. I found this interesting since the other objects do
   not make this distinction and some of them seem to particularly
   useful for leafs (e.g. interfaces). Perhaps it makes sense to
   define for each entState* column how it applies to containers and
   how it applies to leafs. For example, what does it mean to
   lock/unlock a container? (I believe entStateAdmin is more defined
   for leafs rather than containers.)"

HI,

For me, the term "notReportable" is worse than "notSupported".
The terms "notSupported", "unknown" and "unavailable" are used
in MIB modules indicate an appropriate value cannot be obtained
by the access or instrumentation code.

Hi

Well, if we are to pick from the three, I think "unavailable" aligns best
with resolving this issue.

Hi

Well, if we are to pick from the three, I think "unavailable" aligns best
with resolving this issue.

HI,

For me, the term "notReportable" is worse than "notSupported". The terms
"notSupported", "unknown" and "unavailable" are used in MIB modules indicate
an appropriate value cannot be obtained by the access or instrumentation
code.

HI,

I also find several problems with the current definition of the value
"shuttingDown" for AdminState.

First, the definition of usageState was radically changed in the
current draft of the document. From the DESCRIPTION clause of
object entStateUsage (with comments in "<...>"):
" <text cut>

  Note that in the context of a physical entity, this
  <this is sort of silly to say "in the context of
   a physical entity", since this MIB module is
   describing physical entities>     
  object refers to an entity's ability to service more    
  physical entities in a containment hierarchy. A value   
  of 'idle' means this entity is able to contain other    
  entities but that no other entity is currently          
  contained within this entity, as would have been        
  demonstrated by a value  of entPhysicalContainedIn      
  that referenced this entity.                            
                                                        
  A value of 'active' means that at least one entity is   
  contained within this entity and therefore has a value  
  of entPhysicalContainedIn that references this entity,  
  but that it could handle more. A value of 'busy' means  
  that the entity is unable to handle any additional      
  entities being contained in it, as demonstrated by      
  having a value of entPhysicalContainedIn that refers to 
  this entity.                                            
                                                        
  Some entities will exhibit only a subset of the         
  usage state values. Entities that are unable to ever    
  service any entities within a containment hierarchy will
  always have a usage state of 'busy'. Some entities will 
  only ever be able to support one entity within its      
  containment hierarchy and will therefore only exhibit
  values of 'idle' and 'busy'."                        

Given the above, I don't know how to apply the value of
"shuttingDown". But first, let's look at the values.

Secondly, the X.731 document models the admin characteristic as
with a 3 state diagram. The states are "unlocked", "shutting down",
and "locked". The "shutting down" state is meant to represent
a graceful shutdown of an "object". The event "shutdown"
is a state transition from "unlocked" to "shutting down".
Another transition occurs from state "shutting down" to
"lock" when event "the last user quits" occurs. Now, if
I were to model this in SNMP's SMI, I would have an
"action/state" object with values:
  locked - a state and action
  unlocked - a state and action
  shutDown - an action (a write only value) (on a SET with no
               error, a read would return either value "locked"
               or "shuttingDown")
  shuttingDown - a state (a read only value)

However, given the change of definition of the meaning of usage state,
I'm a little confused as to how to "update" the TC (and object type)
definitions. In general, I'm not sure that there is a need for a
"graceful" and "force" administrative shutdown action values. 
If "graceful" shutdown is added, then I suggest that the value
of "shuttingDown" be return until the value of "operState"
is no longer "enabled". This removes the confusing "user"
terminology. (See section 3.1.13 of RFC 2863)

Thirdly, object IF-MIB::ifAdminStatus has a value of "testing".
I don't know it maps to values for AdminState. This was not covered
in the document.
 
Finally, neither the IF MIB document nor X.731 describe the relationship
between the admin values and admin (and oper) values of "contained"
objects. And thus, this document does not cover this topic. It can be
one of:
  1) there is no relationship
  2) the relationship is implementation defined
  3) there is no relationship between admin values, but there
      is a weak relationship between oper values (more on this
      in message about #309 (oper state values))

HI,

First, 
implementing this object to match the semantics of X.731 will be difficult
(if not impossible) if the hardware was not designed this way. And
for some hardware (such as a power supplys) it may not be economically
feasible to implement. (On a power supply, it may "disabled" by
disconnecting the input power. If so, you cannot determine if
it is working (that is, delivering output power within it's
rated range) unless you supply input power. You could fake the
oper state value by saving the last value of oper state when admin
state was "unlocked" and returning it while the admin state is "locked".)

Because of this issue, I believe that a new value needs to be added,
such as "disabledDue2Admin". Also, the other values for object
IF-MIB::ifOperStatus should be added. These values are:
      testing(3),   -- in some test mode
      unknown(4),   -- status can not be determined
                              -- for some reason.
      dormant(5),

But "lowerLayerDown" which be renamed to "containedNotEnabled".

Secondly, I would name the terms "up" and "down" instead of
"enabled" and "disabled", since enabled/disabled seem to be
admin status and not operational state!

Thirdly, the relationship between values of contained entities
needs to be defined. (Object IF-MIB::ifOperStatus supports this.)

HI,

First, 
implementing this object to match the semantics of X.731 will be difficult
(if not impossible) if the hardware was not designed this way. And
for some hardware (such as a power supplys) it may not be economically
feasible to implement. (On a power supply, it may "disabled" by
disconnecting the input power. If so, you cannot determine if
it is working (that is, delivering output power within it's
rated range) unless you supply input power. You could fake the
oper state value by saving the last value of oper state when admin
state was "unlocked" and returning it while the admin state is "locked".)

Because of this issue, I believe that a new value needs to be added,
such as "disabledDue2Admin". Also, the other values for object
IF-MIB::ifOperStatus should be added. These values are:
      testing(3),   -- in some test mode
      unknown(4),   -- status can not be determined
                              -- for some reason.
      dormant(5),
      notPresent(6),    -- some component is missing
      lowerLayerDown(7) -- down due to state of
                                  -- lower-layer interface(s)
But "lowerLayerDown" which be renamed to "containedNotEnabled".

Secondly, I would name the terms "up" and "down" instead of
"enabled" and "disabled", since enabled/disabled seem to be
admin status and not operational state!

Thirdly, the relationship between values of contained entities
needs to be defined. (Object IF-MIB::ifOperStatus supports this.)

HI,

I also find several problems with the current definition of the value
"shuttingDown" for AdminState.

First, the definition of usageState was radically changed in the
current draft of the document. From the DESCRIPTION clause of
object entStateUsage (with comments in "<...>"):
" <text cut>

  Note that in the context of a physical entity, this
  <this is sort of silly to say "in the context of
   a physical entity", since this MIB module is
   describing physical entities>     
  object refers to an entity's ability to service more    
  physical entities in a containment hierarchy. A value   
  of 'idle' means this entity is able to contain other    
  entities but that no other entity is currently          
  contained within this entity, as would have been        
  demonstrated by a value  of entPhysicalContainedIn      
  that referenced this entity.                            
                                                        
  A value of 'active' means that at least one entity is   
  contained within this entity and therefore has a value  
  of entPhysicalContainedIn that references this entity,  
  but that it could handle more. A value of 'busy' means  
  that the entity is unable to handle any additional      
  entities being contained in it, as demonstrated by      
  having a value of entPhysicalContainedIn that refers to 
  this entity.                                            
                                                        
  Some entities will exhibit only a subset of the         
  usage state values. Entities that are unable to ever    
  service any entities within a containment hierarchy will
  always have a usage state of 'busy'. Some entities will 
  only ever be able to support one entity within its      
  containment hierarchy and will therefore only exhibit
  values of 'idle' and 'busy'."                        

Given the above, I don't know how to apply the value of
"shuttingDown". But first, let's look at the values.

Secondly, the X.731 document models the admin characteristic as
with a 3 state diagram. The states are "unlocked", "shutting down",
and "locked". The "shutting down" state is meant to represent
a graceful shutdown of an "object". The event "shutdown"
is a state transition from "unlocked" to "shutting down".
Another transition occurs from state "shutting down" to
"lock" when event "the last user quits" occurs. Now, if
I were to model this in SNMP's SMI, I would have an
"action/state" object with values:
  locked - a state and action
  unlocked - a state and action
  shutDown - an action (a write only value) (on a SET with no
               error, a read would return either value "locked"
               or "shuttingDown")
  shuttingDown - a state (a read only value)

However, given the change of definition of the meaning of usage state,
I'm a little confused as to how to "update" the TC (and object type)
definitions. In general, I'm not sure that there is a need for a
"graceful" and "force" administrative shutdown action values. 
If "graceful" shutdown is added, then I suggest that the value
of "shuttingDown" be return until the value of "operState"
is no longer "enabled". This removes the confusing "user"
terminology. (See section 3.1.13 of RFC 2863)

Thirdly, object IF-MIB::ifAdminStatus has a value of "testing".
I don't know it maps to values for AdminState. This was not covered
in the document.
 
Finally, neither the IF MIB document nor X.731 describe the relationship
between the admin values and admin (and oper) values of "contained"
objects. And thus, this document does not cover this topic. It can be
one of:
  1) there is no relationship
  2) the relationship is implementation defined
  3) there is no relationship between admin values, but there
      is a weak relationship between oper values (more on this
      in message about #309 (oper state values))

HI,

The Alarm Status (not state) brings up the unsettled definition of
what is "an alarm" and what is "clearing an alarm". The definition 
of an alarm MUST be specified for the TC and object to be useful.
Or another term must be used (and, of course, that term must be 
well defined).
I suggest that the term "alarm" be replaced by "fault". And the
following be used for the TC and object definitions:

  FaultStatus  ::=  TEXTUAL-CONVENTION                                
     STATUS         current                                           
     DESCRIPTION                                                      
          "The fault status, which is a bit string.

          When all the bits are zero, then no faults are present.

          The bit 'unavailable(0)' indicates that the fault status
          is unknown. When set, all bits other than 'underRepair(1)'
          must be zero. The 'underRepair(1)' indicates that the
          an item is under repair.

          The following bits are one when one or more faults of
          the perceived severity exist. The value is zero for
          a bit when there is no existing fault of the perceived
          severity. The bits and faults are:
             'critical(2)'
             'major(3)'
             'minor(4)'
             'warning(5)'
             'indeterminate(6)' (the perceived severity cannot
                                 be determined)

          The entity may continue to operate while a fault
          condition exists."
      SYNTAX         BITS                                        
              {

HI,

On this object, the description needs a little more detail.
Maybe it's obvious, but the description should be clear that
the value is updated whenever the value of any of the
objects entStateAdmin, entStateOper, entStateUsage, entStateAlarm,
or entStateStandby change in the row. Also, the description
needs to describe the value after hot insert or hot removal.

HI,

If the TCs are truly "generic", then they shouldn't be identified
with a specific MIB module. However, I'm not at all convinced
that they are generic. In fact, I really don't believe that
thye are appropriate for both physical and logical entities.

So, I support changing the descriptors(what is called "names"
below) for the TCs.

HI,

If the TCs are truly "generic", then they shouldn't be identified
with a specific MIB module. However, I'm not at all convinced
that they are generic. In fact, I really don't believe that
thye are appropriate for both physical and logical entities.

So, I support changing the descriptors(what is called "names"
below) for the TCs.

HI,

This is a real problem. I suggest that a paragraph be added to the
document that describes "containment hierarchy" (and provides
an example). And then all of the uses in the DESCRIPTION clauses
just say "containment hierarchy" and drop all mention of
object entPhysicalContainedIn." If this approach is not
desired, then use a phrase like "....on entities within its       
containment hierarchy. These are entities that specify this
entity as the value for object entPhysicalContainedIn directly
and indirectly."

HI,

I don't see a use for the usage state. As currently defined, it's
value is easily computed.

HI,

I don't see a use for the usage state. As currently defined, it's
value is easily computed.

HI,

"Standby status" items should be renamed to "standby state" to be
consistent with the other naming of other items in the MIB module.
(Items are "state" when value is an enumerated int, and "status"
when the value is a bit string.)

There is one important value missing from the enums for standby.
It is the one that means that the service output is combined
with other entities. This is commonly found with power supplies
where the output is "summed". 

Section 2.2 is incorrect. It implies that by reading the value
of entStandbyStatus for all entities, then entities can be classified
as redundant (or protected). This is not true. Say that there
are two entities that are identical and provide a "protected"
service. At any time, only one is providing service, and the
other is standing by protecting the other. A "protection switch"
causes the roles to change (that is the one providing service
will switch to standing by, and the one standing by will start
to providing service).

In general, this MIB module does not provide enough information
to determine 1) which entities are protected, 2) the relationship
between the entities that are protected and the entities providing
protection.

Regards,
/david t. perkins

The entity state MIB document should have proceeded the Alarm MIB

HI,

The entity state MIB document should have proceeded the Alarm MIB
document. Thus, section 3.2 is backwards.

HI,

So, if an interface goes from down to up, with both a linkUp and 
a entStateOperEnabled notification be generated?

Note the term "trap" needs to be replaced with "notification"
in the DESCRIPTION clause.

Why no notifications when the value of entStateStandby changes
from/to providingService.

HI,

The SMI requires that the DESCRIPTION for the row of a table
describe the index item is that item is not a column in the
table. And the DESCRIPTION clause for entStateEntry does
not provide the needed info.

In general, why is there a "sparse relationship". When should
state be provided and when should it not?

HI,

The document seems to be missing a table that says how the values
are applied to each class of entity.

HI,

So, if an interface goes from down to up, with both a linkUp and 
a entStateOperEnabled notification be generated?

Note the term "trap" needs to be replaced with "notification"
in the DESCRIPTION clause.

Why no notifications when the value of entStateStandby changes
from/to providingService.

           backed up, and will require some initialization
           activity.

Hi

The document used to have a table like this but it was decided that this
made the MIB more difficult to understand and would cause it to be out of
date each time a new class of entity was added. Plus, you can't really make
sweeping statements that 'fans ever do this' or 'power supplies never do
that'. It was decided that instead, we would ensure that the objects and
textual conventions were well enough defined so that this could easily be
determined by the implementer.

The document seems to be missing a table that says how the values are

I still find the text confusing from a stylistic point of view.
What about this:

                 "The administrative state for this entity. A value 
		  of 'notSupported' means that this entity is unable
                  to report administrative state. 
		  
		  Setting this object to 'notSupported' will result
		  in an 'inconsistentValue' error. For entities that
		  do not support administrative state, all set
		  operations will result in an 'inconsistentValue' 
		  error."

Let me ask again: Why is the alarm status important in the
entStateOperEnabled notification? Do you expect that entities
transition in the enabled operational state while alarms are 
pending? Is that spelled out somewhere?

So this is not generally transitive? I like Dave Perkin's suggestion
on this issue.

I still find the text confusing from a stylistic point of view.
What about this:

                 "The administrative state for this entity. A value 
		  of 'notSupported' means that this entity is unable
                  to report administrative state. 
		  
		  Setting this object to 'notSupported' will result
		  in an 'inconsistentValue' error. For entities that
		  do not support administrative state, all set
		  operations will result in an 'inconsistentValue' 
		  error."

Let me ask again: Why is the alarm status important in the
entStateOperEnabled notification? Do you expect that entities
transition in the enabled operational state while alarms are 
pending? Is that spelled out somewhere?

I did not propose to use the terms leaf and container - I just tried
to explain my issue and I obviously did not a good job. My point is
that some of the objects and descriptions seem to apply to the function
of a physical entity while others apply to strictly the containment
feature. Lets take for example an entity of class "container" and
an entity of class "port". I think the interpretation of UsageState 
or OperState is totally different for these two entities.

For a container entity, UsageState active means there are still slots
available where I can plug something in. For a port, the entStateUsage
is according to the description busy, regardless of the port's
functional usage state. So this usage state is purely oriented on
the containment hierarchy.

If I look at the entStateOper of a container and a port entity, then
for the container the state enabled probably means that the container 
is active and able to host plugins. A port, from a pure containment
point of view, it should probably be disabled since it can't host
other components. However, from a functional point of view, the
port state is probably coupled to the interface state realized by
that port.

In short: I think the interpretation of the states for the various
entity classes needs to be clarified. (I think Dave also wrote something
in that direction.) Without guidance from the spec, implementations
will just not use the same model and fail to interoperate.

Hi

In the absence of a time machine, I'm not sure what you are asking for. Are
you suggesting that the section explain that there are other ways to get at
the alarm information and that this method of starting with physical
resource is just one example?

Sharon

HI,

The entity state MIB document should have proceeded the Alarm MIB document.
Thus, section 3.2 is backwards.

Hi

The document used to have a table like this but it was decided that this
made the MIB more difficult to understand and would cause it to be out of
date each time a new class of entity was added. Plus, you can't really make
sweeping statements that 'fans ever do this' or 'power supplies never do
that'. It was decided that instead, we would ensure that the objects and
textual conventions were well enough defined so that this could easily be
determined by the implementer.

Hi

I know people generally interpret the end of working group last call fairly
loosely, so I've created new issues to track some of the more recently
raised comments.

335 Notification Comments  
334 Table, Index Descriptions  
333 Relationship with Alarm MIB  
332 More Standby State/Status Issues 

The goal is still to get the update out by Monday @ 9am, so we'll try to
resolve the new comments and issues with previously proposed resolutions
today.

Thanks,

Sharon

Subject: [Entmib] Summary of Issues from Entity State MIB WG Last Call


Hi

For those of you not regularly visiting http://rt.psg.org (ietf, ietf), here
is the current list of open issues on the Entity State MIB. Most of these
have been discussed on the list already. I'll start posting proposed
resolutions to these to the list with the goal of closing them by the end of
the week so that I can make the ID deadline of Monday 9am.

A big thanks to everyone who took the time to review the document.

 325 OID Organization 
 327 More Editorial Issues 
 328 Containment Hierach and entPhysicalContainedin 
 329 Usage State Scope

So this is not generally transitive? I like Dave Perkin's suggestion
on this issue.

I did not propose to use the terms leaf and container - I just tried
to explain my issue and I obviously did not a good job. My point is
that some of the objects and descriptions seem to apply to the function
of a physical entity while others apply to strictly the containment
feature. Lets take for example an entity of class "container" and
an entity of class "port". I think the interpretation of UsageState 
or OperState is totally different for these two entities.

For a container entity, UsageState active means there are still slots
available where I can plug something in. For a port, the entStateUsage
is according to the description busy, regardless of the port's
functional usage state. So this usage state is purely oriented on
the containment hierarchy.

If I look at the entStateOper of a container and a port entity, then
for the container the state enabled probably means that the container 
is active and able to host plugins. A port, from a pure containment
point of view, it should probably be disabled since it can't host
other components. However, from a functional point of view, the
port state is probably coupled to the interface state realized by
that port.

In short: I think the interpretation of the states for the various
entity classes needs to be clarified. (I think Dave also wrote something
in that direction.) Without guidance from the spec, implementations
will just not use the same model and fail to interoperate.

Hi

In the absence of a time machine, I'm not sure what you are asking for. Are
you suggesting that the section explain that there are other ways to get at
the alarm information and that this method of starting with physical
resource is just one example?

Sharon

HI,

The entity state MIB document should have proceeded the Alarm MIB document.
Thus, section 3.2 is backwards.

Subject: [Entmib] RE: Examples in entity State MIB document


Hi

The document used to have a table like this but it was decided that this
made the MIB more difficult to understand and would cause it to be out of
date each time a new class of entity was added. Plus, you can't really make
sweeping statements that 'fans ever do this' or 'power supplies never do
that'. It was decided that instead, we would ensure that the objects and
textual conventions were well enough defined so that this could easily be
determined by the implementer.

HI,

The document seems to be missing a table that says how the values are
applied to each class of entity.

Hi

I know people generally interpret the end of working group last call fairly
loosely, so I've created new issues to track some of the more recently
raised comments.

335 Notification Comments  
334 Table, Index Descriptions  
333 Relationship with Alarm MIB  
332 More Standby State/Status Issues 

The goal is still to get the update out by Monday @ 9am, so we'll try to
resolve the new comments and issues with previously proposed resolutions
today.

Thanks,

Sharon

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-335. The issue 
will be considered closed pending the proposed edit being done.

In the description for entStateOperEnabled replace

"An entStateOperEnabled trap signifies that the SNMP"

With

"An entStateOperEnabled Notification signifies that the SNMP"
               
And in the description of entStateOperDisabled replace

"An entStateOperDisabled trap signifies that the SNMP"

With

"An entStateOperDisabled Notification signifies that the SNMP"

With respect to the other comments, the only interface that we associate
with the physical port is the lowest layer, so it would not be for every
linkUp/linkDown that we would end up with two sets of notifications.

My feeling is that it is a little late to be discussing additional
notifications to add.

"So, if an interface goes from down to up, with both a linkUp and 
a entStateOperEnabled notification be generated?

Note the term "trap" needs to be replaced with "notification" in the 
DESCRIPTION clause.

Why no notifications when the value of entStateStandby changes from/to 
providingService."

Hi

With respect to the first point, can you provide me with the specific
reference? I've just done a quick look through RFC2578 and the MIB Review
Guidelines document and could not find what you were referring to.

With respect to the second point, it is a sparse relationship because that
was working group consensus. I didn't agree with the logic, so it's
difficult to recall.  If I remember correctly, the logic was that not all
equipment would be able to report all the status information, so people
wanted a sparse augment. I'll propose adding some text to this affect. Of
course people could just as easily just use the 'notApplicable' (or whatever
we decided to call it) value for the enumeration instead.

Sharon

HI,

The SMI requires that the DESCRIPTION for the row of a table describe the
index item is that item is not a column in the table. And the DESCRIPTION
clause for entStateEntry does not provide the needed info.

In general, why is there a "sparse relationship". When should state be
provided and when should it not?

reference? I've just done a quick look through RFC2578 and the MIB Review
Guidelines document and could not find what you were referring to.

With respect to the second point, it is a sparse relationship because that
was working group consensus. I didn't agree with the logic, so it's
difficult to recall.  If I remember correctly, the logic was that not all
equipment would be able to report all the status information, so people
wanted a sparse augment. I'll propose adding some text to this affect. Of
course people could just as easily just use the 'notApplicable' (or whatever
we decided to call it) value for the enumeration instead.

Subject: Index for table entStateTable


HI,

The SMI requires that the DESCRIPTION for the row of a table describe the
index item is that item is not a column in the table. And the DESCRIPTION
clause for entStateEntry does not provide the needed info.

In general, why is there a "sparse relationship". When should state be
provided and when should it not?

Hi

I think it is important to distinguish between standardizing on the
behaviour and characteristics of physical entities and how this information
is reported. I think when you look at different real-world products you
can't really generalize by physical class type, only by the features that
are supported. Some of the fans and power supplies I've heard about are very
sophisticated. I'm not saying that all fans and power supplies should be,
but I don't want to put anything in the MIB that would prevent these
entities from taking advantage of the reporting capabilities within the MIB.

Sharon.

use the same model and fail to interoperate.

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-307. The issue
will be considered closed pending the proposed edit being done.

Replace the enumeration 'notSupported' with 'unavailable' in each of
the TCs and any references within the text.

For each of the (TC, object definition) pairs, move the following sort
of text from the object definition to the textual convention:

"A value
of 'unavailable' means that this resource is unable to report [this]
state." 

Modifications include
 section 3.1, pp 3
 section 3.4
 TC AdminState
 TC OperState
 TC UsageState
 TC AlarmStatus
 TC StandbyStatus
 Object entStateAdmin
 Object entStateOper
 Object entStateUsage
 Object entStateAlarm
 Object entStateStandby

Hi

Well, if we are to pick from the three, I think "unavailable" aligns best
with resolving this issue.

HI,

For me, the term "notReportable" is worse than "notSupported". The terms
"notSupported", "unknown" and "unavailable" are used in MIB modules indicate
an appropriate value cannot be obtained by the access or instrumentation
code.

section 3.1, pp 3
section 3.4

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-307. The issue
will be considered closed pending the proposed edit being done.

Replace the enumeration 'notSupported' with 'unavailable' in each of
the TCs and any references within the text.

For each of the (TC, object definition) pairs, move the following sort
of text from the object definition to the textual convention:

"A value
of 'unavailable' means that this resource is unable to report [this]
state." 

Modifications include
 section 3.1, pp 3
 section 3.4
 TC AdminState
 TC OperState
 TC UsageState
 TC AlarmStatus
 TC StandbyStatus
 Object entStateAdmin
 Object entStateOper
 Object entStateUsage
 Object entStateAlarm
 Object entStateStandby

Hi

Well, if we are to pick from the three, I think "unavailable" aligns best
with resolving this issue.

HI,

For me, the term "notReportable" is worse than "notSupported". The terms
"notSupported", "unknown" and "unavailable" are used in MIB modules indicate
an appropriate value cannot be obtained by the access or instrumentation
code.

Mods:
section 3.1, pp 3
section 3.4
TC AdminState
TC OperState
TC UsageState
TC AlarmStatus
TC StandbyStatus
Object entStateAdmin
Object entStateOper
Object entStateUsage
Object entStateAlarm
Object entStateStandby

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-335. The issue 
will be considered closed pending the proposed edit being done.

In the description for entStateOperEnabled replace

"An entStateOperEnabled trap signifies that the SNMP"

With

"An entStateOperEnabled Notification signifies that the SNMP"
               
And in the description of entStateOperDisabled replace

"An entStateOperDisabled trap signifies that the SNMP"

With

"An entStateOperDisabled Notification signifies that the SNMP"

With respect to the other comments, the only interface that we associate
with the physical port is the lowest layer, so it would not be for every
linkUp/linkDown that we would end up with two sets of notifications.

My feeling is that it is a little late to be discussing additional
notifications to add.

"So, if an interface goes from down to up, with both a linkUp and 
a entStateOperEnabled notification be generated?

Note the term "trap" needs to be replaced with "notification" in the 
DESCRIPTION clause.

Why no notifications when the value of entStateStandby changes from/to 
providingService."

HI,

No, no, no - get rid of the "not reportable" terminology!

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-311. The issue 
will be considered closed pending the proposed edit being done.

Replace

'entStateLastChanged OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX DateAndTime
MAX-ACCESS read-only
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION 
   "The value of this object is the date and
   time when state/status of the entity
   last changed, or zero."'

DESCRIPTION 
   "The value of this object is the date and
   time when the value of any of  
   entStateAdmin, entStateOper, entStateUsage, 
   entStateAlarm, or entStateStandby changed for
   this entity.

   If there has been no change since
   the last re-initialization of the local system, 
   this object contains the date and time of

HI,

On this object, the description needs a little more detail. Maybe it's
obvious, but the description should be clear that the value is updated
whenever the value of any of the objects entStateAdmin, entStateOper,
entStateUsage, entStateAlarm, or entStateStandby change in the row. Also,
the description needs to describe the value after hot insert or hot removal.

In response to Dave's comments, I see nothing within the state/status
objects that is specific to entities not that would prevent them from being
applies elsewhere. They were specifically worded for reuse - the use of the
generic term resource for example. In fact, there is a lot of examples
within industry where they can been applied to logical items. I'll leave a
discussion of whether that is a good idea to those who may choose to re-use
these textual conventions.

HI,

If the TCs are truly "generic", then they shouldn't be identified with a
specific MIB module. However, I'm not at all convinced that they are
generic. In fact, I really don't believe that thye are appropriate for both
physical and logical entities.

So, I support changing the descriptors(what is called "names"
below) for the TCs.

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-327. The issue 
will be considered closed pending the proposed edit being done.

[Note some of the finer bits of this text will be influenced by the
resolution to other problems]

1) Change the end of the abstract from

	"provide information about the state of the entity."

   to the following:

	"provide information about the state of physical entities."

2) In the description to StandbyStatus replace

"      providing service, but is will be immediately able to"

With

"      providing service, but it will be immediately able to"

3) Note that the resolution to issue #311 covers this

4) In the description of entStateAdmin replace

"The administrative state for this entity. A value
                of 'notSupported' means that this entity is unable
                to report administrative state. This object can not
                be administratively set to 'notSupported'. For
                entities that do not support administrative state,
                changing the value of this object to something other
                than 'notSupported' is not permitted.  A value of
                'inconsistentValue' will be returned in either case."

With

"The administrative state for this entity. A value 
		  of 'notSupported' means that this entity is unable
                  to report administrative state. 
		  
		  Setting this object to 'notSupported' will result
		  in an 'inconsistentValue' error. For entities that
		  do not support administrative state, all set
		  operations will result in an 'inconsistentValue' 
		  error.""

7) Replace

"
   entStateNotificationGroup NOTIFICATION-GROUP"

With

"
   entStateNotificationsGroup NOTIFICATION-GROUP
      "

I still find the text confusing from a stylistic point of view. What about
this:

                 "The administrative state for this entity. A value 
		  of 'notSupported' means that this entity is unable
                  to report administrative state.

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-327. The issue 
will be considered closed pending the proposed edit being done.

[Note some of the finer bits of this text will be influenced by the
resolution to other problems]

1) Change the end of the abstract from

	"provide information about the state of the entity."

   to the following:

	"provide information about the state of physical entities."

2) In the description to StandbyStatus replace

"      providing service, but is will be immediately able to"

With

"      providing service, but it will be immediately able to"

3) Note that the resolution to issue #311 covers this

4) In the description of entStateAdmin replace

"The administrative state for this entity. A value
                of 'notSupported' means that this entity is unable
                to report administrative state. This object can not
                be administratively set to 'notSupported'. For
                entities that do not support administrative state,
                changing the value of this object to something other
                than 'notSupported' is not permitted.  A value of
                'inconsistentValue' will be returned in either case."

With

"The administrative state for this entity. A value 
		  of 'notSupported' means that this entity is unable
                  to report administrative state. 
		  
		  Setting this object to 'notSupported' will result
		  in an 'inconsistentValue' error. For entities that
		  do not support administrative state, all set
		  operations will result in an 'inconsistentValue' 
		  error.""

7) Replace

"
   entStateNotificationGroup NOTIFICATION-GROUP"

With

"
   entStateNotificationsGroup NOTIFICATION-GROUP
      "

Hi

Ok. I'll add a section that defines containment hierarchy and be done with
it. Or perhaps there is something in the Entity MIB I can point at.

While a containment hierarchy is transitive, I think when we are talking
about the states it can't really be for two reasons
	- Usage definitely can't be transitive
	- I think transitive starts getting into computed states, which we
have defined out of scope.

So this is not generally transitive? I like Dave Perkin's suggestion on this
issue.

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-330. The issue 
will be considered closed pending the proposed edit being done.

In the description to entStateOperEnabled and entStateOperDisabled add the
following text

"The entStateAdmin and entStateAlarm varbinds may examined to find out
additional information on the administrative state at the time of the
operation state change as well to find out whether there were any known
alarms against the entity at that time."

Let me ask again: Why is the alarm status important in the
entStateOperEnabled notification? Do you expect that entities transition in
the enabled operational state while alarms are 
pending? Is that spelled out somewhere?

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-330. The issue 
will be considered closed pending the proposed edit being done.

In the description to entStateOperEnabled and entStateOperDisabled add the
following text

"The entStateAdmin and entStateAlarm varbinds may examined to find out
additional information on the administrative state at the time of the
operation state change as well to find out whether there were any known
alarms against the entity at that time."

Let me ask again: Why is the alarm status important in the
entStateOperEnabled notification? Do you expect that entities transition in
the enabled operational state while alarms are 
pending? Is that spelled out somewhere?

Hi

All we need to do is refer to the definitions in the Alarm MIB and we should
be good.

HI,

The Alarm Status (not state) brings up the unsettled definition of what is
"an alarm" and what is "clearing an alarm". The definition 
of an alarm MUST be specified for the TC and object to be useful. Or another
term must be used (and, of course, that term must be 
well defined).
I suggest that the term "alarm" be replaced by "fault". And the following be
used for the TC and object definitions:

  FaultStatus  ::=  TEXTUAL-CONVENTION                                
     STATUS         current                                           
     DESCRIPTION                                                      
          "The fault status, which is a bit string.

          When all the bits are zero, then no faults are present.

          The bit 'unavailable(0)' indicates that the fault status
          is unknown. When set, all bits other than 'underRepair(1)'
          must be zero. The 'underRepair(1)' indicates that the
          an item is under repair.

          The following bits are one when one or more faults of
          the perceived severity exist. The value is zero for
          a bit when there is no existing fault of the perceived
          severity. The bits and faults are:
             'critical(2)'
             'major(3)'
             'minor(4)'
             'warning(5)'
             'indeterminate(6)' (the perceived severity cannot
                                 be determined)

          The entity may continue to operate while a fault
          condition exists."

Hi

This and your email titled "Standby" are being tracked as issue #322.

I think you might be reading too much into the connection between state,
status and their data type. That was certainly never done intentionally on
my part and the OSI thing is a status.

I'm fine with adding this additional enumeration if there are no objections.

Sharon

           backed up, and will require some initialization
           activity.

Hi

This and your email titled "Standby" are being tracked as issue #322.

I think you might be reading too much into the connection between state,
status and their data type. That was certainly never done intentionally on
my part and the OSI thing is a status.

I'm fine with adding this additional enumeration if there are no objections.

Sharon

Hi

Ok. I'll add a section that defines containment hierarchy and be done with
it. Or perhaps there is something in the Entity MIB I can point at.

While a containment hierarchy is transitive, I think when we are talking
about the states it can't really be for two reasons
	- Usage definitely can't be transitive
	- I think transitive starts getting into computed states, which we
have defined out of scope.

So this is not generally transitive? I like Dave Perkin's suggestion on this
issue.

Hi

This and your email titled "Standby" are being tracked as issue #322.

I think you might be reading too much into the connection between state,
status and their data type. That was certainly never done intentionally on
my part and the OSI thing is a status.

I'm fine with adding this additional enumeration if there are no objections.

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-333. The issue 
will be considered closed pending the proposed edit being done.

In section 3.2 add the following text:

"Alternatively, if the alarmActiveTable is queried first and an active alarm
with a value of alarmActiveResourceId that match this entPhysicalIndex is
found, then entStateAlarm can be used to quickly determine if there are
additional active alarms against this physical entity."

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-332. The issue 
will be considered closed pending the proposed edit being done.

[Note that this text may be affected by the resolution of other issues]

In the description of StandybyStatus add


"             A value 
              'providingSharedService' means the entity
              is providing service that is summed with the service
              provided by other entities."

And add the following enumeration:
"
               providingSharedService (5)
"

In the description to entStateStandby replace

"              If this entity cannot operate in a standby role,
                the value of this object will always be
               'providingService'."

David T. Perkins [dperkins@dsperkins.com]

""Standby status" items should be renamed to "standby state" to be 
consistent with the other naming of other items in the MIB module. 
(Items are "state" when value is an enumerated int, and "status" when 
the value is a bit string.)

There is one important value missing from the enums for standby. It is 
the one that means that the service output is combined with other 
entities. This is commonly found with power supplies where the output 
is "summed". 

Section 2.2 is incorrect. It implies that by reading the value of 
entStandbyStatus for all entities, then entities can be classified as 
redundant (or protected). This is not true. Say that there are two 
entities that are identical and provide a "protected" service. At any 
time, only one is providing service, and the other is standing by 
protecting the other. A "protection switch" causes the roles to change 
(that is the one providing service will switch to standing by, and the 
one standing by will start to providing service).

In general, this MIB module does not provide enough information to 
determine 1) which entities are protected, 2) the relationship between 
the entities that are protected and the entities providing protection. "

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-330. The issue 
will be considered closed pending the proposed edit being done.

[Note: I'm trying to answer the question without enforcing a particular
operational model on the management application. I don't think this is the
right place to do that.]

In the description to entStateOperDisabled add the following text

"The entStateAdmin and entStateAlarm varbinds may be examined to find out
additional information on the administrative state at the time of the
operation state change as well to find out whether there were any known
alarms against the entity at that time that may explain why the physical
entity has become operationally disabled. "
              
In the description to entStateOperEnabled add the following text

"The entStateAdmin and entStateAlarm varbinds may be examined to find out
additional information on the administrative state at the time of the
operation state change as well to find out whether there were any known
alarms against the entity at that time that may have affect on the physical
entity's ability to stay operationally enabled."

The text is OK and does not hurt, but you did not answer my question.

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-328. The issue 
will be considered closed pending the proposed edit being done.

In section 2.1, replace

"Physical entities exist within a containment hierarchy. This raises"

With

"Physical entities exist within a containment hierarchy. Physical
containment
is defined by the entPhysicalContainedIn object[RFC2737]. This raises"

And remove all explanations of what a physical hierarchy is from within the
DESCRIPTION clauses.

Hi

Ok. I'll add a section that defines containment hierarchy and be done with
it. Or perhaps there is something in the Entity MIB I can point at.

While a containment hierarchy is transitive, I think when we are talking
about the states it can't really be for two reasons
	- Usage definitely can't be transitive
	- I think transitive starts getting into computed states, which we
have defined out of scope.

So this is not generally transitive? I like Dave Perkin's suggestion on this
issue.

An explanation on the difference between raw and computed state, as defined

issue. No change appears to be necessary on that particular issue.

HI,

The Alarm Status (not state) brings up the unsettled definition of what is
"an alarm" and what is "clearing an alarm". The definition 
of an alarm MUST be specified for the TC and object to be useful. Or another
term must be used (and, of course, that term must be 
well defined).
I suggest that the term "alarm" be replaced by "fault". And the following be
used for the TC and object definitions:

  FaultStatus  ::=  TEXTUAL-CONVENTION                                
     STATUS         current                                           
     DESCRIPTION                                                      
          "The fault status, which is a bit string.

          When all the bits are zero, then no faults are present.

          The bit 'unavailable(0)' indicates that the fault status
          is unknown. When set, all bits other than 'underRepair(1)'
          must be zero. The 'underRepair(1)' indicates that the
          an item is under repair.

          The following bits are one when one or more faults of
          the perceived severity exist. The value is zero for
          a bit when there is no existing fault of the perceived
          severity. The bits and faults are:
             'critical(2)'
             'major(3)'
             'minor(4)'
             'warning(5)'
             'indeterminate(6)' (the perceived severity cannot
                                 be determined)

          The entity may continue to operate while a fault
          condition exists."

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-332. The issue 
will be considered closed pending the proposed edit being done.

[Note that this text may be affected by the resolution of other issues]

In the description of StandybyStatus add


"             A value 
              'providingSharedService' means the entity
              is providing service that is summed with the service
              provided by other entities."

And add the following enumeration:
"
               providingSharedService (5)
"

In the description to entStateStandby replace

"              If this entity cannot operate in a standby role,
                the value of this object will always be
               'providingService'."

""Standby status" items should be renamed to "standby state" to be 
consistent with the other naming of other items in the MIB module. 
(Items are "state" when value is an enumerated int, and "status" when 
the value is a bit string.)

There is one important value missing from the enums for standby. It is 
the one that means that the service output is combined with other 
entities. This is commonly found with power supplies where the output 
is "summed". 

Section 2.2 is incorrect. It implies that by reading the value of 
entStandbyStatus for all entities, then entities can be classified as 
redundant (or protected). This is not true. Say that there are two 
entities that are identical and provide a "protected" service. At any 
time, only one is providing service, and the other is standing by 
protecting the other. A "protection switch" causes the roles to change 
(that is the one providing service will switch to standing by, and the 
one standing by will start to providing service).

In general, this MIB module does not provide enough information to 
determine 1) which entities are protected, 2) the relationship between 
the entities that are protected and the entities providing protection. "

Hi

I'm going to object to my own proposed resolution. In going back though the
issues list I note that adding an enumeration to support load sharing was
already discussed by the working group and was tracked as issue #74. The
decision was not the include it since ...

"It seems that 'loadSharing' would be more of a specialization 
of 'providingSerice' than a peer concept. I propose not including it in 
this list.

The question of adding another option to provide this sort of 
information was briefly discussed in the Vienna meeting and it was felt 
that our intention was to not provide a full set of objects to support 
redundancy. I propose we do not add this object at this time."

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-332. The issue 
will be considered closed pending the proposed edit being done.

[Note that this text may be affected by the resolution of other issues]

In the description of StandybyStatus add


"             A value 
              'providingSharedService' means the entity
              is providing service that is summed with the service
              provided by other entities."

And add the following enumeration:
"
               providingSharedService (5)
"

In the description to entStateStandby replace

"              If this entity cannot operate in a standby role,
                the value of this object will always be
               'providingService'."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
David T. Perkins [dperkins@dsperkins.com]

""Standby status" items should be renamed to "standby state" to be 
consistent with the other naming of other items in the MIB module. 
(Items are "state" when value is an enumerated int, and "status" when 
the value is a bit string.)

There is one important value missing from the enums for standby. It is 
the one that means that the service output is combined with other 
entities. This is commonly found with power supplies where the output 
is "summed". 

Section 2.2 is incorrect. It implies that by reading the value of 
entStandbyStatus for all entities, then entities can be classified as 
redundant (or protected). This is not true. Say that there are two 
entities that are identical and provide a "protected" service. At any 
time, only one is providing service, and the other is standing by 
protecting the other. A "protection switch" causes the roles to change 
(that is the one providing service will switch to standing by, and the 
one standing by will start to providing service).

In general, this MIB module does not provide enough information to 
determine 1) which entities are protected, 2) the relationship between 
the entities that are protected and the entities providing protection. "

redundancy. I propose we do not add this object at this time."

Issues


The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-332. The issue 
will be considered closed pending the proposed edit being done.

[Note that this text may be affected by the resolution of other issues]

In the description of StandybyStatus add


"             A value 
              'providingSharedService' means the entity
              is providing service that is summed with the service
              provided by other entities."

And add the following enumeration:
"
               providingSharedService (5)
"

In the description to entStateStandby replace

"              If this entity cannot operate in a standby role,
                the value of this object will always be
               'providingService'."

David T. Perkins [dperkins@dsperkins.com]

""Standby status" items should be renamed to "standby state" to be 
consistent with the other naming of other items in the MIB module. 
(Items are "state" when value is an enumerated int, and "status" when 
the value is a bit string.)

There is one important value missing from the enums for standby. It is 
the one that means that the service output is combined with other 
entities. This is commonly found with power supplies where the output 
is "summed". 

Section 2.2 is incorrect. It implies that by reading the value of 
entStandbyStatus for all entities, then entities can be classified as 
redundant (or protected). This is not true. Say that there are two 
entities that are identical and provide a "protected" service. At any 
time, only one is providing service, and the other is standing by 
protecting the other. A "protection switch" causes the roles to change 
(that is the one providing service will switch to standing by, and the 
one standing by will start to providing service).

In general, this MIB module does not provide enough information to 
determine 1) which entities are protected, 2) the relationship between 
the entities that are protected and the entities providing protection. "

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-328. The issue 
will be considered closed pending the proposed edit being done.

In section 2.1, replace

"Physical entities exist within a containment hierarchy. This raises"

With

"Physical entities exist within a containment hierarchy. Physical
containment
is defined by the entPhysicalContainedIn object[RFC2737]. This raises"

And remove all explanations of what a physical hierarchy is from within the
DESCRIPTION clauses.

Hi

Ok. I'll add a section that defines containment hierarchy and be done with
it. Or perhaps there is something in the Entity MIB I can point at.

While a containment hierarchy is transitive, I think when we are talking
about the states it can't really be for two reasons
	- Usage definitely can't be transitive
	- I think transitive starts getting into computed states, which we
have defined out of scope.

So this is not generally transitive? I like Dave Perkin's suggestion on this
issue.

An explanation on the difference between raw and computed state, as defined

issue. No change appears to be necessary on that particular issue.

HI,

The Alarm Status (not state) brings up the unsettled definition of what is
"an alarm" and what is "clearing an alarm". The definition 
of an alarm MUST be specified for the TC and object to be useful. Or another
term must be used (and, of course, that term must be 
well defined).
I suggest that the term "alarm" be replaced by "fault". And the following be
used for the TC and object definitions:

will be considered closed pending the proposed edit being done.

In the description to entStateStandby replace

"              If this entity cannot operate in a standby role,
                the value of this object will always be
               'providingService'."

State/Status Issues


Hi

I'm going to object to my own proposed resolution. In going back though the
issues list I note that adding an enumeration to support load sharing was
already discussed by the working group and was tracked as issue #74. The
decision was not the include it since ...

"It seems that 'loadSharing' would be more of a specialization 
of 'providingSerice' than a peer concept. I propose not including it in 
this list.

The question of adding another option to provide this sort of 
information was briefly discussed in the Vienna meeting and it was felt 
that our intention was to not provide a full set of objects to support 
redundancy. I propose we do not add this object at this time."

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-332. The issue 
will be considered closed pending the proposed edit being done.

[Note that this text may be affected by the resolution of other issues]

In the description of StandybyStatus add


"             A value 
              'providingSharedService' means the entity
              is providing service that is summed with the service
              provided by other entities."

And add the following enumeration:
"
               providingSharedService (5)
"

In the description to entStateStandby replace

"              If this entity cannot operate in a standby role,
                the value of this object will always be
               'providingService'."

David T. Perkins [dperkins@dsperkins.com]

""Standby status" items should be renamed to "standby state" to be 
consistent with the other naming of other items in the MIB module. 
(Items are "state" when value is an enumerated int, and "status" when 
the value is a bit string.)

There is one important value missing from the enums for standby. It is 
the one that means that the service output is combined with other 
entities. This is commonly found with power supplies where the output 
is "summed". 

Section 2.2 is incorrect. It implies that by reading the value of 
entStandbyStatus for all entities, then entities can be classified as 
redundant (or protected). This is not true. Say that there are two 
entities that are identical and provide a "protected" service. At any 
time, only one is providing service, and the other is standing by 
protecting the other. A "protection switch" causes the roles to change 
(that is the one providing service will switch to standing by, and the 
one standing by will start to providing service).

In general, this MIB module does not provide enough information to 
determine 1) which entities are protected, 2) the relationship between 
the entities that are protected and the entities providing protection. "

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-330. The issue 
will be considered closed pending the proposed edit being done.

[Note: I'm trying to answer the question without enforcing a particular
operational model on the management application. I don't think this is the
right place to do that.]

In the description to entStateOperDisabled add the following text

"The entStateAdmin and entStateAlarm varbinds may be examined to find out
additional information on the administrative state at the time of the
operation state change as well to find out whether there were any known
alarms against the entity at that time that may explain why the physical
entity has become operationally disabled. "
              
In the description to entStateOperEnabled add the following text

"The entStateAdmin and entStateAlarm varbinds may be examined to find out
additional information on the administrative state at the time of the
operation state change as well to find out whether there were any known
alarms against the entity at that time that may have affect on the physical
entity's ability to stay operationally enabled."

The text is OK and does not hurt, but you did not answer my question.

considered closed pending the proposed edit being done.

[Note that this text may be influenced by the resolution of other issues.]

Add the following text to entStateOper 

"Note that some implementations may not be able to accurately report
entStateOper while the entStateAdmin object has a value other than
'unlocked'.  In these cases, this object MUST have a value of
'notReportable'."

Related to the additional points that Dave brought up. We just need to make
sure we provide sufficient guidance for how to report status if available,
or if it is not. I think we've covered the case where entities can't report.
Section 3.1 already covers the relationship between this MIB and the
interfaces MIB. I'm still not convinced that 'enabled' is that different
than 'up.

As for the other states: I swear we've discussed this already, but I can't
find it. Personally, I like the cleanness of a two state operational state
where additional information is found in supplemental objects, but I'm sure
we can agree on a compromise. So, we already have 'unknown'.
'lowerLayerDown' is a computed state so out of scope.  'notPresent' can
easily be computed via inventory information. 'dormant' could be considered
comparable to the usage object in some ways. That leaves us with 'testing'.
We could add that one.

Add the following enumeration to OperState  
    testing (4)

And he following text to the OperState Description

"A value of 'testing' means the resource is currently being tested 
and cannot there fore report whether it is operational or not."

HI,

First, 
implementing this object to match the semantics of X.731 will be difficult
(if not impossible) if the hardware was not designed this way. And for some
hardware (such as a power supplys) it may not be economically feasible to
implement. (On a power supply, it may "disabled" by disconnecting the input
power. If so, you cannot determine if it is working (that is, delivering
output power within it's rated range) unless you supply input power. You
could fake the oper state value by saving the last value of oper state when
admin state was "unlocked" and returning it while the admin state is
"locked".)

Because of this issue, I believe that a new value needs to be added, such as
"disabledDue2Admin". Also, the other values for object IF-MIB::ifOperStatus
should be added. These values are:
      testing(3),   -- in some test mode
      unknown(4),   -- status can not be determined
                              -- for some reason.
      dormant(5),
      notPresent(6),    -- some component is missing
      lowerLayerDown(7) -- down due to state of
                                  -- lower-layer interface(s) But
"lowerLayerDown" which be renamed to "containedNotEnabled".

Secondly, I would name the terms "up" and "down" instead of "enabled" and
"disabled", since enabled/disabled seem to be admin status and not
operational state!

Thirdly, the relationship between values of contained entities
needs to be defined. (Object IF-MIB::ifOperStatus supports this.)

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-307. The issue will be
considered closed pending the proposed edit being done.

[Note, we've gotten rid of the enumeration 'notReportable' in favour of more
standard ones. The descriptive text, as far as I can see, aligns with what
we all seem to be agreeing this enumeration means]

Replace the enumeration 'notSupported' with 'unavailable' in each of the TCs
and any references within the text.

For each of the (TC, object definition) pairs, move the following sort of
text from the object definition to the textual convention:

"A value
of 'unavailable' means that this resource is unable to report [this] state."


Modifications include
 section 3.1, pp 3
 section 3.4
 TC AdminState
 TC OperState
 TC UsageState
 TC AlarmStatus
 TC StandbyStatus
 Object entStateAdmin
 Object entStateOper
 Object entStateUsage
 Object entStateAlarm
 Object entStateStandby

Hi

State


HI,

I also find several problems with the current definition of the value
"shuttingDown" for AdminState.

First, the definition of usageState was radically changed in the current
draft of the document. From the DESCRIPTION clause of object entStateUsage
(with comments in "<...>"): " <text cut>

  Note that in the context of a physical entity, this
  <this is sort of silly to say "in the context of
   a physical entity", since this MIB module is
   describing physical entities>     
  object refers to an entity's ability to service more    
  physical entities in a containment hierarchy. A value   
  of 'idle' means this entity is able to contain other    
  entities but that no other entity is currently          
  contained within this entity, as would have been        
  demonstrated by a value  of entPhysicalContainedIn      
  that referenced this entity.                            
                                                        
  A value of 'active' means that at least one entity is   
  contained within this entity and therefore has a value  
  of entPhysicalContainedIn that references this entity,  
  but that it could handle more. A value of 'busy' means  
  that the entity is unable to handle any additional      
  entities being contained in it, as demonstrated by      
  having a value of entPhysicalContainedIn that refers to 
  this entity.                                            
                                                        
  Some entities will exhibit only a subset of the         
  usage state values. Entities that are unable to ever    
  service any entities within a containment hierarchy will
  always have a usage state of 'busy'. Some entities will 
  only ever be able to support one entity within its      
  containment hierarchy and will therefore only exhibit
  values of 'idle' and 'busy'."                        

Given the above, I don't know how to apply the value of "shuttingDown". But
first, let's look at the values.

Secondly, the X.731 document models the admin characteristic as with a 3
state diagram. The states are "unlocked", "shutting down", and "locked". The
"shutting down" state is meant to represent a graceful shutdown of an
"object". The event "shutdown" is a state transition from "unlocked" to
"shutting down". Another transition occurs from state "shutting down" to
"lock" when event "the last user quits" occurs. Now, if I were to model this
in SNMP's SMI, I would have an "action/state" object with values:
  locked - a state and action
  unlocked - a state and action
  shutDown - an action (a write only value) (on a SET with no
               error, a read would return either value "locked"
               or "shuttingDown")
  shuttingDown - a state (a read only value)

However, given the change of definition of the meaning of usage state, I'm a
little confused as to how to "update" the TC (and object type) definitions.
In general, I'm not sure that there is a need for a "graceful" and "force"
administrative shutdown action values. 
If "graceful" shutdown is added, then I suggest that the value of
"shuttingDown" be return until the value of "operState" is no longer
"enabled". This removes the confusing "user" terminology. (See section
3.1.13 of RFC 2863)

Thirdly, object IF-MIB::ifAdminStatus has a value of "testing". I don't know
it maps to values for AdminState. This was not covered in the document.
 
Finally, neither the IF MIB document nor X.731 describe the relationship
between the admin values and admin (and oper) values of "contained" objects.
And thus, this document does not cover this topic. It can be one of:
  1) there is no relationship
  2) the relationship is implementation defined
  3) there is no relationship between admin values, but there
      is a weak relationship between oper values (more on this
      in message about #309 (oper state values))

I still fail to understand why we need a bit to summarize 6 other bits
in a single byte. Unless someone can explain what the performance gain
is of this summary bit, I tend to object to having this bit.

I still fail to understand why we need a bit to summarize 6 other bits
in a single byte. Unless someone can explain what the performance gain
is of this summary bit, I tend to object to having this bit.

Hi

The good news is we got in an updated version of the Entity State MIB in
before the draft cut-off time. The bad news is that the working group hasn't
really reach a consensus on how to resolve a few of the open issues so it
looks like we will have to continue working the outstanding problems and get
an additional update out after the Seoul meeting.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Entity MIB Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Entity State MIB
	Author(s)	: S. Chisholm, D. Perkins
	Filename	: draft-ietf-entmib-state-03.txt
	Pages		: 18
	Date		: 2004-2-18
	
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 extensions to the entity MIB to
provide information about the state of the entity.

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-entmib-state-03.txt

To remove yourself from the IETF Announcement list, send a message to 
ietf-announce-request with the word unsubscribe in the body of the message.

Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP. Login with the username
"anonymous" and a password of your e-mail address. After logging in,
type "cd internet-drafts" and then
	"get draft-ietf-entmib-state-03.txt".

A list of Internet-Drafts directories can be found in
http://www.ietf.org/shadow.html 
or ftp://ftp.ietf.org/ietf/1shadow-sites.txt


Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail.

Send a message to:
	mailserv@ietf.org.
In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-entmib-state-03.txt".
	
NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
		
		
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.

NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
		
		
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.

Hi

Ok, while I still think it's a useful little bit, if there are not
objections, I'm willing to remove it. Are there any other views on this?

I still fail to understand why we need a bit to summarize 6 other bits in a
single byte. Unless someone can explain what the performance gain is of this
summary bit, I tend to object to having this bit.

I personally did not see concensus on some of the issues that you 
report as resolved. For example, I did see more people speaking up
in favour of prefixed TC names. Also, the feedback on some of the
other items listed above were never really consistent with the
proposed resolution.

You seem to push a bit too strongly your opinion on some issues. 
This is why I like the see the chair jumping in to determine where 
we actually have concensus and where not and of course what the
determined concensus position actually is.

I personally did not see concensus on some of the issues that you 
report as resolved. For example, I did see more people speaking up
in favour of prefixed TC names. Also, the feedback on some of the
other items listed above were never really consistent with the
proposed resolution.

You seem to push a bit too strongly your opinion on some issues. 
This is why I like the see the chair jumping in to determine where 
we actually have concensus and where not and of course what the
determined concensus position actually is.

hi

Actually, I posted these are being resolved, even though I have not closed
them officially yet, because I am looking for feedback from people on when
they weren't happy with the proposed resolutions. I can't do much with
silence.

If you think I didn't weight working group consensus correctly, I'm cool
with getting a second opinion. (On the prefix issue I counted 2 against, 1
for not including my view but other counts welcome in case I misinterpreted)

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-310. The issue 
will be considered closed pending the proposed edit being done.

[Note that the previously proposed edits were done and are reflected in
version -03 of the Entity State MIB. The following is an additional edit on
top of that.]

In the DESCRIPTION of AlarmStatus remove the following text:

"When the value of 'alarmOutstanding' is set, one or more

With

"                -- The following are not defined in X.733

                indeterminate (6)

Hi

Ok, while I still think it's a useful little bit, if there are not
objections, I'm willing to remove it. Are there any other views on this?

I still fail to understand why we need a bit to summarize 6 other bits in a
single byte. Unless someone can explain what the performance gain is of this
summary bit, I tend to object to having this bit.

The following is the proposed resolution to entstate-310. The issue 
will be considered closed pending the proposed edit being done.

[Note that the previously proposed edits were done and are reflected in
version -03 of the Entity State MIB. The following is an additional edit on
top of that.]

In the DESCRIPTION of AlarmStatus remove the following text:

"When the value of 'alarmOutstanding' is set, one or more
            alarms is active against the resource. The fault may
            or may not be disabling. This bit provides a high-level
            summary that can be used to determine whether or not
            to examine the rest of the values.  "

And in the enumeration for AlarmStatus, replace:

"
                alarmOutstanding(5),
                -- The following are not defined in X.733
                warning (6),
                indeterminate (7)
                              "

With

"                -- The following are not defined in X.733
                warning (5),
                indeterminate (6)
                              "
