Hi MIB Doctors,

I am not sure how many of you follow the EMAN WG which has a chartered
item for a Power and Energy Monitoring MIB -
http://www.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-eman-energy-monitoring-mib-02.txt. One
of the issue they are encountering is the need to support a small subset
of objects from the Entity MIB composed of entPhysicalIndex,
entPhysicalName and entPhysicalUris (which in their case is read-only
and limited size). Full support of the Entity MIB as per RFC 4133 may
happen but they estimate it would be an extra-load for the devices
reporting power and energy information. A proposal was made to define
the subset of objects they need as a module compliance for small energy
reporting devices to be defined for the Entity MIB (see slides 8 and 9
in http://www.ietf.org/proceedings/83/slides/slides-83-eman-3.pdf).=20

My question is whether you see such a solution causing any problem?=20
Is it worth a v4 for the Entity MIB, or could it be done differently?=20

Thanks and Regards,

Dan

Well, the IMHO biggest reason to spin the Entity MIB is to move the
physical class TC to IANA. EMAN also deals with batteries that there
is no proper physical class for it.

[[DR]] Right, this too.=20

However, this would not be controversial (I believe) while the proposal
to define a compliance for a small subset of objects may raise some
brows.=20

WHy would that raise brows? I think it is fine to define one
more (limited) module compliance, as long as you are clear
about what it is, what it is useful for and possibly some statements
as to which environments would be the appropriate place for them
(ala sort of a Applicabilty Statement; which could be in the
DESCRIPTION clause I would think).

Hi,

Is there a MIB Doctor that can help us?

I am holding a Discuss on draft-ietf-trill-rbridge-mib-07.txt

It reads...

Can anyone tell me if I am right or wrong.

Thanks,
Adrian

all, 




I thought there was a MIB module for monitoring SYSLOG 
but all I seem to find is a TC mib 5427 and the Syslog->SNMP notification 
mib. 


What's the story?

There was http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-syslog-device-mib-17
but it never really took off - perhaps the attempt to model
configuration objects given that some syslog implementations allow to
do pretty wild things was a mistake. The data tracker history is here:

 From a quick read that I did (section 6.7), then it
indeed seems to specify a set of requirements (even in
MUST) language for the ISIS-MIB module. So here (in
sect 6.7) they are described in English.

It would indeed be useful to have that documented
in machine readable format, i.e. in (or as part of)
a MODULE-COMPLIANCE statement.

Is it a reason to hold up the document?
Not sure about that. At the time when I was AD, I
tried to strongly encourage people to express such
requirements in the form of MODULE_COMPLIANCE
statements. But that was/is my view.

Maybe other MIB doctors do have an opinion on that.

What a shame the mib doesn't look half bad. 
Oh well back to implementing proprietary managed objects to monitor it
like all the other vendors.


Thanks Juergen!

Adrian and Bert,

I think it would be very helpful if the authors could specify ISIS objects 
in a MODULE_COMPLIANCE as Bert suggests.

When I reviewed version 6 of the MIB, I asked if the authors could ensure 
that WG was aware there is no read-only
compliance and this point was not addressed in version 7 either.    Not a 
MUST, but certainly want to make sure
that the WG is aware they need to support read-create and read-write via 
SNMP.

Additionally, there are some warnings from the MIB compilers that were also 
there in version 6 and I'd like
to see those addressed in the document (either discussed or fixed).  My 
comments below were emailed to the authors.

fyi,
  -Joan



* LAST-UPDATED and REVISION clauses  have the same date as Version 6


OUTPUT from SMICNGPRO
-----------------------

W: f(RBRIDGE-MIB.my), (921,20) Item "rbridgeMultiFibPorts" should have SIZE 
specified
W: f(RBRIDGE-MIB.my), (1453,4) Row "rbridgeSnoopingAddrEntry" has indexing 
that may create variables with more than 128 sub-ids
W: f(RBRIDGE-MIB.my), (1503,20) Item "rbridgeSnoopingAddrPorts" should have 
SIZE specified
W: f(RBRIDGE-MIB.my), (1044,18) Row "rbridgeVlanPortEntry" does not have a 
consistent indexing scheme - cannot specify an index item from additional 
"base row" rbridgeBasePortEntry, since can have only one "base row" which is 
rbridgeVlanEntry


SMILINT
-----------

mibs/RBRIDGE-MIB.my:1453: [5] {index-exceeds-too-large} warning: index of 
row `rbridgeSnoopingAddrEntry' can exceed OID size limit by 142 
subidentifier(s)

Additional descriptions of some error/warning messages:

Error:       index-element-no-size (level 3)
Message:     index element `%s' of row `%s' must have a size restriction
Description: Object identifiers are restricted in size to have at most 128
             sub-identifiers. This implies that index elements used to form
             instance identifiers must have a size contraint which ensures
             that the 128 sub-identifier constraint is kept intact for any
             possible combination of the index elements' values (RFC 2578,
             Section 3.5).


*  Looking at the objects with TC of PortList (rbridgeMultiFibPorts, 
rbridgeSnoopingAddrPorts)

W: f(RBRIDGE-MIB.my), (921,20) Item "rbridgeMultiFibPorts" should have SIZE 
specified


   rbridgeMultiFibPorts OBJECT-TYPE
       SYNTAX      PortList
       MAX-ACCESS  read-only
       STATUS      current
       DESCRIPTION
           "The list of ports to which a frame destined to this
           multicast distribution tree is flooded. This may be pruned
           further based on other forwarding information."
       ::= { rbridgeMultiFibEntry 2 }

Q-BRIDGE-MIB defines:
PortList ::= TEXTUAL-CONVENTION
    STATUS      current
    DESCRIPTION
        "Each octet within this value specifies a set of eight
        ports, with the first octet specifying ports 1 through
        8, the second octet specifying ports 9 through 16, etc.
        Within each octet, the most significant bit represents
        the lowest numbered port, and the least significant bit
        represents the highest numbered port.  Thus, each port
        of the bridge is represented by a single bit within the
        value of this object.  If that bit has a value of '1'
        then that port is included in the set of ports; the port
        is not included if its bit has a value of '0'."
    SYNTAX      OCTET STRING

OCTET STRING is 0..65535 characters.

Consider that a range of 0..255 would give 8*256 == 2048 Ports
Are more ports needed?



* Both compilers warn about rbridgeSnoopingEntry

The DESCRIPTION clause indicates that IPv4 and IPv6 so 4 or 16 byes, so why 
is this
not indicated?  (An example is below.)

   rbridgeSnoopingAddrType OBJECT-TYPE
       SYNTAX      InetAddressType { unknown(0), ipv4(1), ipv6(2)}
       MAX-ACCESS  not-accessible
       STATUS      current
       DESCRIPTION
           "The IP multicast address type for which a listener has been
           detected by this RBridge. This MIB requires support for only
           IPv4 and IPv6 address types."
       REFERENCE
           "RFC 6325 section 4.7"
       ::= { rbridgeSnoopingAddrEntry 1 }

   rbridgeSnoopingAddr OBJECT-TYPE
       SYNTAX      InetAddress (SIZE(0|4|16))
       MAX-ACCESS  not-accessible
       STATUS      current
       DESCRIPTION
           "The IP multicast address for which a listener has been
           detected by this RBridge. The address type of this object
           is specified in rbridgeSnoopingAddrType. This MIB requires
           support for only global IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, so the
           length of the object can be either 4 or 16 bytes."
       REFERENCE
           "RFC 6325 section 4.7"
       ::= { rbridgeSnoopingAddrEntry 2 }



* Suggested OID layout is not as Specified in the MIB Guidelines document:

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


Compliances and Groups are reversed in the MIB draft.


INDEXING
========
I am a little concerned about the Indexing in this MIB, only because it 
looks like several table
should really have an AUGMENTS relationship.

       INDEX  { rbridgeBaseNicknameName }
       INDEX  { rbridgeBasePort }
       INDEX   { rbridgeFdbId, rbridgeUniFdbAddr }
       INDEX   { rbridgeUniFibNickname, rbridgeUniFibPort,
       INDEX   { rbridgeMultiFibNickname }
       INDEX   { rbridgeVlanIndex }
       INDEX   { rbridgeBasePort, rbridgeVlanIndex }
       INDEX   { rbridgeBasePort }
       INDEX   { rbridgeVlanIndex }
       INDEX   { rbridgeBasePort }
       INDEX  { rbridgeVlanIndex, rbridgeSnoopingAddrType,
       INDEX  { rbridgeDtreeNumber }
       INDEX  { rbridgeTrillNbrMacAddr }



* Conformance Statement.
Same comment as on the prior draft.  Still no read-only and full 
conformance.
This is okay, but want to make sure that working group is "okay" with having
to do a full conformance (i.e. support read-write and read-create via SNMP)?

Mike,
     The MIB document did spend a lot of time in the WG and
several reviews and revisions. Some found it too simple and
some found it too complex and some found it both.The WG ran
out of steam on this document without arriving at any consensus.
The MIB was dropped from the target in the revised charter
of September 2009. As far as the Syslog-WG is concerned, the
story ends there.
     I still think that the MIB is not all bad. (That makes two
of us.)  Waiting for someone to show some interest and take it
further. I am ready to pitch in my bit.

    Cheers, Glenn

Anil,

The Ops ADs and your own ADs [added to this message] will probably have =
a view on this. My feeling is that a Trill implementation is somewhat =
dependent on an IS-IS implementation. Therefore the MIB module for an =
Rbridge is not complete without the ability to model/manage an IS-IS =
speaker.=20

It is possible that you can cover this with suitable wording, however, =
it remains my opinion that the correct way to handle this is with a =
compliance statement. I have two reasons for saying this:
1. An Rbridge is not properly manageable without IS-IS management
2. The IS-IS module is not fully applicable to an Rbridge

Cheers,
Adrian

I agree that a MODULE-COMPLIANCE macro is the correct solution.
Your WG needs to agree on the specific objects from the specific MIB modules
that need to be supported.

I agree with Andy. If only part of the IS-IS MIB module applies to
Rbridges, than the MODULE-COMPLIANCE statement can specify which objects
or MIB groups need to be supported.=20

Dan

Hi Dan,

The most important reason to have an ENTITY-MIB v4 is the addition of a 
proper read-only UUID, as opposed to using the entPhysicalUris, or even 
defining an EMAN specific UUID.
So I support this work.

Thanks Dan.=20

As you have suggested some of the desirable features for ENTITY MIB V4
from an EMAN point of view shall be=20

 -  entPhysicalClass to be an IANA controlled list  =20
 -  is it possible to have a smaller set of ENTITY MIB objects for
possible compliance with  ENTITY-MIB=20
 -  entPhysicalUris to be read-only object=20
         -  representation of UUID compliant with rfc 4122 ?=20

Subject: [eman] Entity MIBv4?

Hi MIB Doctors,

I am not sure how many of you follow the EMAN WG which has a chartered
item for a Power and Energy Monitoring MIB -
http://www.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-eman-energy-monitoring-mib-02.txt. One
of the issue they are encountering is the need to support a small subset
of objects from the Entity MIB composed of entPhysicalIndex,
entPhysicalName and entPhysicalUris (which in their case is read-only
and limited size). Full support of the Entity MIB as per RFC 4133 may
happen but they estimate it would be an extra-load for the devices
reporting power and energy information. A proposal was made to define
the subset of objects they need as a module compliance for small energy
reporting devices to be defined for the Entity MIB (see slides 8 and 9
in http://www.ietf.org/proceedings/83/slides/slides-83-eman-3.pdf).=20

My question is whether you see such a solution causing any problem?=20
Is it worth a v4 for the Entity MIB, or could it be done differently?=20

Thanks and Regards,

Dan

You can have an additional conformance statement and compliance is
to a conformance statement not the ENTITY-MIB.

That won't happen; you can have a complaince statement that does not
require writable implementation.

Not 100% sure what this means. entPhysicalUris can contain an RFC 4122
UUID URN. Perhaps you are asking for a separate entPhysicalUuid
object. If so, I am not sure you need the extra URN verbosity.

[[DR]] Of course. Other classes of entities will use the compliance
statement(s) that requires read-write access

[[DR]] This is the only issue that seems open in my view - meaning the
slides and discussions at the meeting did not seem to lead to a
conclusion. Do we expect cases where both a RFC 4122 compliant UUID
representation and also another entPhysicalUri format will be needed?

[[DR]] Exactly.
[ycm] OK. A clarification from a novice. Those conformance statements
should included in the ENTITY-MIB conformance section ?=20

[[DR]] Of course. Other classes of entities will use the compliance

[[DR]] This is the only issue that seems open in my view - meaning the
slides and discussions at the meeting did not seem to lead to a
conclusion. Do we expect cases where both a RFC 4122 compliant UUID
representation and also another entPhysicalUri format will be needed?

The question is whether it is wise to encode a UUID, which is
essentially 16 binary octets, in a representation that requires 45
octets. I am pretty optimistic that a DISPLAY-HINT definition can be
provided that renders 16 binary octets into something like
"f81d4fae-7dec-11d0-a765-00a0c91e6bf6".

Dear MIB-doctors,

Part of the IESG review, Adrian provided the following feedback on the 
draft-ietf-ipfix-psamp-mib-04 
<http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-ipfix-psamp-mib-04> draft:

    I would have expected to see some discussion of
    psampSampUniProbProbability and the non-support of NaN and Infinity
    in the compliance clauses.
    Compliance statements often also show the set (minimum? maximum?) of values for objects that need to be supported.

Here is the object in question

    psampSampUniProbProbability OBJECT-TYPE
        SYNTAX      Float64TC
        MAX-ACCESS  read-only
        STATUS      current

            sampled, expressed as a value between 0 and 1.  The
            probability is equal for every packet.  A value of 0 means
            no packet is sampled since the probability is 0. A value
            of 1 means all packets are sampled since the

            "These objects are needed if uniform probabilistic sampling

I browsed through RFC2580, and I'm not sure how to address this point.
Any help is appreciated. For example, an example in a MIB module.

Regards, Benoit.

To quote RFC 6340:
   o  Since these textual conventions are defined in terms of the OCTET
      STRING type, the SMI's mechanisms for formally setting range
      constraints are not available.  MIB designers using these textual
      conventions will need to use DESCRIPTION clauses to spell out any
      applicable range constraints beyond those implied by the
      underlying IEEE types.

   o  Whenever these textual conventions are used in a MIB module, the
      associated DESCRIPTION clause will need to clearly specify whether
      denormalized numbers, NaNs ("not a number") or infinities are
      permitted, along with any special semantics associated with these
      cases.  This is especially important for writeable objects.

The problem in this particular case is that the SMI notation doesn't provide
a reasonable way to represent the 0.0 to 1.0 range in machine-processable
form.

Prohibing NaN and the Infinities also seems to be the correct thing to do here.
If permitted, what would they *mean* here?  Or, more directly, under what
circumstances could a non-broken implementation reasonably respond
with those values for this object?  Since it is not writable, I'm less concerned
about issues with denormalized numbers.

The OBJECT-GROUP also seems reasonable to me.  What problem do you
see there?

I think this should have never been a Float64TC. To represent a
probability between 0 and 1, pick a scale factor (e.g. 1000000000) and
an Unsigned32 number. This is easy to implement, less ambigious for
probabilities such as 0 and 1 and I assume the precision is good
enough as well, no? If not, use Unsigned64 and an even bigger scaling
factor and this is then surely more precise than the Float64TC will
ever be. (It seems this is the only usage of a float number in the
MIB.)

Hi,

Note first that this was a Comment not a Discuss.

Note also that I am not an expert on Compliance Statements, hence the slight
vagueness in my Comment.

Looking at Compliance Statements I have known, it would appear that an OBJECT
clause under Compliances has a DESCRIPTION that often limits the scope of the
object.

Adrian

Dear J=FCrgen, all,

we had exactly that in some early versions of the draft. Then we had =
some
lengthy discussions what is the best way to encode the float64 value =
from
the info model (there it IS float64). If I remember correctly we voted =
for
some kind of float because we wanted to avoid conversion from the info =
model
to the MIB and vice versa. Finally, we found the Float64TC and re-used =
that
one.

As conclusion, if we accept the info model as primary source of =
information
(because this is what is transmitted on the wire by the IPFIX protocol) =
then
we keep precision and avoid conversion between formats when using =
Float64TC.

Best Regards,

Thomas

Dear Thomas,

thanks for the explanation. Perhaps the info model should not have used
floats... but luckily I do not have to implement this. ;-)

Hi -

I'm with Juergen on this one.  Quoting that RFC again:

   o  Floating-point numbers are useful if the number space needs to
      cover a large dynamic range.  For number spaces with a limited
      range, fixed-point numbers can be more efficient and more precise.

   o  Floating-point numbers are typically the wrong answer for data
      that is truly decimal or can be handled adequately by re-thinking
      the units and representing the scaled numbers as integers.

But I do understand the desire to avoid conversions, and if the WG
has discussed the tradeoffs, I have no objections.

Randy

Dear Thomas,

The normal case when this would be done is when an implementation
conforming to a particular MODULE-COMPLIANCE statement
only needs to support a subset of the values permitted by the
OBJECT-TYPE.  One would include the SYNTAX or
WRITE-SYNTAX components in the OBJECT clause only
when the set of values that a conformant implementation must
support is more limited than what the OBJECT-TYPE specifies.
