Definitions of Managed Objects
for Administration of SNMP Parties

Status of this Memo

This document specifies an IAB standards track protocol for the
Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for
improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the "IAB
Official Protocol Standards" for the standardization state and status
of this protocol. Distribution of this memo is unlimited.

Abstract

This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB)
for use with network management protocols in TCP/IP-based internets.
In particular, it describes a representation of the SNMP parties
defined in [8] as objects defined according to the Internet Standard
SMI [1]. These definitions are consistent with the SNMP Security
protocols set forth in [9].

1. The Network Management Framework

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

RFC1155 which defines the SMI, the mechanisms used for describing
and naming objects for the purpose of management. RFC1212
defines a more concise description mechanism, which is wholly
consistent with the SMI.

RFC1156 which defines MIB-I, the core set of managed objects for
the Internet suite of protocols. RFC1213, defines MIB-II, an
evolution of MIB-I based on implementation experience and new
operational requirements.

RFC1157 which defines the SNMP, the protocol used for network
access to managed objects.

The Framework permits new objects to be defined for the purpose of
experimentation and evaluation.

2. Objects

Managed objects are accessed via a virtual information store, termed
the Management Information Base or MIB. Objects in the MIB are
defined using the subset of Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1) [5]
defined in the SMI. In particular, each object has a name, a syntax,
and an encoding. The name is an object identifier, an
administratively assigned name, which specifies an object type. The
object type together with an object instance serves to uniquely
identify a specific instantiation of the object. For human
convenience, we often use a textual string, termed the OBJECT
DESCRIPTOR, to also refer to the object type.

The syntax of an object type defines the abstract data structure
corresponding to that object type. The ASN.1 language is used for
this purpose. However, the SMI [1] purposely restricts the ASN.1
constructs which may be used. These restrictions are explicitly made
for simplicity.

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

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

2.1. Format of Definitions

Section 4 contains the specification of all object types contained in
this MIB module. The object types are defined using the conventions
defined in the SMI, as amended by the extensions specified in [7].

3. Overview

3.1. Structure

This MIB contains the definitions for four tables, a number of OBJECT
IDENTIFIER assignments, and some conventions for initial use with
some of the assignments. The four tables are the SNMP Party Public
database, the SNMP Party Secrets database, the SNMP Access Control
database, and the SNMP Views database.

The SNMP Party Public database and the SNMP Party Secrets database
are defined as separate tables specifically for the purpose of
positioning them in different parts of the MIB tree namespace. In
particular, the SNMP Party Secrets database contains secret
information, for which security demands that access to it be limited
to parties which use both authentication and privacy. It is
therefore positioned in a separate branch of the MIB tree so as to
provide for the easiest means of accommodating the required
limitation.

In contrast, the SNMP Party Public database contains public
information about SNMP parties. In particular, it contains the
parties' clocks which need to be read-able (but not write-able) by
unauthenticated queries, since an unauthenticated query of a party's
clock is the first step of the procedure to re-establish clock
synchronization (see [9]).

The objects in this MIB are organized into four groups. All four of
the groups are mandatory for those SNMP implementations that realize
the security framework and mechanisms defined in [8] and [9].

3.2. Instance Identifiers

In all four of the tables in this MIB, the object instances are
identified by values which have an underlying syntax of OBJECT
IDENTIFIER. For the Party Public database and the Party Secrets
database, the index variable is the party identifier. For the Access
Control database and the Views database, two index variables are
defined, both of which have a syntax of OBJECT IDENTIFIER. (See the
INDEX clauses in the MIB definitions below for the specific
variables.)

According to RFC1212 [7], section 4.1.6, the syntax of the object(s)
specified in an INDEX clause indicates how to form the instance-
identifier. In particular, for each index object which is object
identifier-valued, its contribution to the instance identifier is:

`n+1' sub-identifiers, where `n' is the number of sub-identifiers
in the value (the first sub-identifier is `n' itself, following
this, each sub-identifier in the value is copied).

3.3. Textual Conventions

The datatypes, Party, Clock, and TAddress, are used as textual
conventions in this document. These textual conventions have NO
effect on either the syntax nor the semantics of any managed object.
Objects defined using these conventions are always encoded by means
of the rules that define their primitive type. Hence, no changes to
the SMI or the SNMP are necessary to accommodate these textual
conventions which are adopted merely for the convenience of readers.

4. Definitions

RFC1353-MIB DEFINITIONS ::= BEGIN

IMPORTS
system, mib, private, internet FROM RFC1155-SMI
OBJECT-TYPE FROM RFC-1212;

snmpParties OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { mib-2 20 }

-- Textual Conventions

-- A textual convention denoting a SNMP party identifier:

Party ::= OBJECT IDENTIFIER

-- A party's authentication clock - a non-negative integer
-- which is incremented as specified/allowed by the party's
-- Authentication Protocol.
-- For noAuth, a party's authentication clock is unused and

-- its value is undefined.
-- For md5AuthProtocol, a party's authentication clock is a
-- relative clock with 1-second granularity.

Clock ::= INTEGER (0..2147483647)

-- A textual convention denoting a transport service
-- address.
-- For rfc1351Domain, a TAddress is 6 octets long,
-- the initial 4 octets containing the IP-address in
-- network-byte order and the last 2 containing the
-- UDP port in network-byte order.

TAddress ::= OCTET STRING

--- Definitions of Security Protocols

partyProtocols
OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { partyAdmin 1 }

noAuth -- The protocol without authentication
OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { partyProtocols 1 }

noPriv -- The protocol without privacy
OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { partyProtocols 3 }

desPrivProtocol -- The DES Privacy Protocol
OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { partyProtocols 4 }

md5AuthProtocol -- The MD5 Authentication Protocol
OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { partyProtocols 5 }

--- definitions of Transport Domains

transportDomains
OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { partyAdmin 2 }

rfc1351Domain --- RFC-1351 (SNMP over UDP, using SNMP Parties)
OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { transportDomains 1 }

--- definitions of Proxy Domains

proxyDomains
OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { partyAdmin 3 }

noProxy --- Local operation
OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { proxyDomains 1 }

--- Definition of Initial Party Identifiers

-- When devices are installed, they need to be configured
-- with an initial set of SNMP parties. The configuration
-- of SNMP parties requires (among other things) the
-- assignment of several OBJECT IDENTIFIERs. Any local
-- network administration can obtain the delegated
-- authority necessary to assign its own OBJECT
-- IDENTIFIERs. However, to provide for those
-- administrations who have not obtained the necessary
-- authority, this document allocates a branch of the
-- naming tree for use with the following conventions.

initialPartyId
OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { partyAdmin 4 }

-- Note these are identified as "initial" party identifiers
-- since these allow secure SNMP communication to proceed,
-- thereby allowing further SNMP parties to be configured
-- through use of the SNMP itself.

-- The following definitions identify a party identifier,
-- and specify the initial values of various object
-- instances indexed by that identifier. In addition,
-- the initial MIB view and access control parameters
-- assigned, by convention, to these parties are identified.

partyTable OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX SEQUENCE OF PartyEntry
ACCESS not-accessible
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"The SNMP Party Public database.

An agent must ensure that there is, at all times,
a one-to-one correspondence between entries in
this table and entries in the partySecretsTable.

The creation/deletion of instances in this table
via SNMP Set-Requests is not allowed. Instead,

entries in this table are created/deleted as a
side-effect of the creation/deletion of
corresponding entries in the partySecretsTable.

Thus, a SNMP Set-Request whose varbinds contain a
reference to a non-existent instance of a
partyTable object, but no reference to the
corresponding instance of a partySecretsTable
object, will be rejected."
::= { partyPublic 1 }

partyEntry OBJECT-TYPE

DESCRIPTION
"Locally held non-secret information about a
particular SNMP party, which is available for
access by network management. Note that this does
not include all locally held information about a

SYNTAX Party
ACCESS read-write
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"The identity of a second SNMP party or other

management entity with which interaction may be
necessary to satisfy received management requests.
In this context, the distinguished value { noProxy
} signifies that the party responds to received
management requests by entirely local mechanisms."

SYNTAX OBJECT IDENTIFIER
ACCESS read-write
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"The authentication protocol by which all messages
generated by the party are authenticated as to
origin and integrity. In this context, the value
{ noAuth } signifies that messages generated by
the party are not authenticated."

::= { partyEntry 5 }

partyAuthClock OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX Clock
ACCESS read-write

partyAuthPublic OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX OCTET STRING -- for md5AuthProtocol: (SIZE (0..16))
ACCESS read-write
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"A publically-readable value for the party.

Depending on the party's authentication protocol,
this value may be needed to support the party's
authentication protocol. Alternatively, it may be
used by a manager during the procedure for

altering secret information about a party. (For
example, by altering the value of an instance of
this object in the same SNMP Set-Request used to
update an instance of partyAuthPrivate, a
subsequent Get-Request can determine if the Set-
Request was successful in the event that no
response to the Set-Request is received, see RFC
1352.)

The length of the value is dependent on the
party's authentication protocol. If not used by
the authentication protocol, it is recommended
that agents support values of any length up to and
including the length of the corresponding
partyAuthPrivate object."
DEFVAL { ''h } -- the empty string

ACCESS read-write
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION

"A publically-readable value for the party.

Depending on the party's privacy protocol, this
value may be needed to support the party's privacy
protocol. Alternatively, it may be used by a
manager as a part of its procedure for altering
secret information about a party. (For example,
by altering the value of an instance of this
object in the same SNMP Set-Request used to update
an instance of partyPrivPrivate, a subsequent
Get-Request can determine if the Set-Request was
successful in the event that no response to the
Set-Request is received, see RFC1352.)

The length of the value is dependent on the

partyMaxMessageSize OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX INTEGER (484..65507)
ACCESS read-write
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"The maximum length in octets of a SNMP message
which this party will accept. For parties which
execute at an agent, the agent initializes this
object to the maximum length supported by the
agent, and does not let the object be set to any
larger value. For parties which do not execute at
the agent, the agent must allow the manager to set
this object to any legal value, even if it is
larger than the agent can generate."

DESCRIPTION
"The status of the locally-held information on a
particular SNMP party.

The instance of this object for a particular party
and the instance of partySecretsStatus for the
same party always have the same value.

This object will typically provide unrestricted
read-only access to the status of parties. In
contrast, partySecretsStatus will typically
provide restricted read-write access to the status
of parties."

ACCESS not-accessible
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"Locally held secret information about a
particular SNMP party, which is available for
access by network management.

When a SNMP Set-Request is used to update the
values of instances of objects in this table, it
is recommended that the same SNMP Set-Request also
alter the value of a non-secret object instance
(e.g., an instance of partyAuthPublic or
partyPrivPublic). This allows a Get-Request of
that non-secret object instance to determine if
the Set-Request was successful in the event that
no response which matches the Set-Request is
received, see RFC1352."

partySecretsAuthPrivate OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX OCTET STRING -- for md5AuthProtocol: (SIZE (16))
ACCESS read-write
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"An encoding of the party's private authentication
key which may be needed to support the
authentication protocol. Although the value of
this variable may be altered by a management
operation (e.g., a SNMP Set-Request), its value
can never be retrieved by a management operation:
when read, the value of this variable is the zero
length OCTET STRING.

The private authentication key is NOT directly
represented by the value of this variable, but
rather it is represented according to an encoding.
This encoding is the bitwise exclusive-OR of the
old key with the new key, i.e., of the old private
authentication key (prior to the alteration) with
the new private authentication key (after the
alteration). Thus, when processing a received
protocol Set operation, the new private
authentication key is obtained from the value of
this variable as the result of a bitwise
exclusive-OR of the variable's value and the old
private authentication key. In calculating the

exclusive-OR, if the old key is shorter than the
new key, zero-valued padding is appended to the
old key. If no value for the old key exists, a
zero-length OCTET STRING is used in the
calculation."
DEFVAL { ''h } -- the empty string

partySecretsPrivPrivate OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX OCTET STRING -- for desPrivProtocol: (SIZE (16))
ACCESS read-write
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"An encoding of the party's private encryption key
which may be needed to support the privacy
protocol. Although the value of this variable may
be altered by a management operation (e.g., a SNMP
Set-Request), its value can never be retrieved by
a management operation: when read, the value of
this variable is the zero length OCTET STRING.

The private encryption key is NOT directly

the calculation."
DEFVAL { ''h } -- the empty string
::= { partySecretsEntry 3 }

partySecretsStatus OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX INTEGER { valid(1), invalid(2) }
ACCESS read-write
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"The status of the locally-held information on a
particular SNMP party.

Setting an instance of this object to the value
'valid(1)' has the effect of ensuring that valid
local knowledge exists for the corresponding
party. For valid local knowledge to exist, there
must be corresponding instances of each object in
this table and in the partyTable. Thus, the
creation of instances in the partyTable (but not
in the aclTable or viewTable) occurs as a direct
result of the creation of instances in this table.

Setting an instance of this object to the value
'invalid(2)' has the effect of invalidating all
local knowledge of the corresponding party,
including the invalidating of any/all entries in
the partyTable, the partySecretsTable, the
aclTable, and the viewTable which reference said
party.

It is an implementation-specific matter as to
whether the agent removes an invalidated entry
from the table. Accordingly, management stations
must be prepared to receive from agents tabular
information corresponding to entries not currently
in use. Proper interpretation of such entries
requires examination of the relevant
partySecretsStatus object."

DESCRIPTION

"The access privileges which govern what

values, where each value specifies a SNMP PDU type
by which the subject party may request a permitted
operation. The value for a particular PDU type is
computed as 2 raised to the value of the ASN.1
context-specific tag for the appropriate SNMP PDU
type. The values (for the tags defined in RFC
1157) are defined in RFC1351 as:

Get : 1

DESCRIPTION
"The status of the access privileges for a
particular requesting SNMP party in accessing a
particular target SNMP party. Setting an instance
of this object to the value 'invalid(2)' has the
effect of invalidating the corresponding access
privileges.

It is an implementation-specific matter as to
whether the agent removes an invalidated entry
from the table. Accordingly, management stations
must be prepared to receive from agents tabular
information corresponding to entries not currently
in use. Proper interpretation of such entries
requires examination of the relevant aclStatus
object."

-- Implementation of the objects in this group is mandatory.

viewTable OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX SEQUENCE OF ViewEntry
ACCESS not-accessible
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"The table contained in the local database which
defines local MIB views. Each SNMP party has a
single MIB view which is defined by two
collections of view subtrees: the included view
subtrees, and the excluded view subtrees. Every
such subtree, both included and excluded, is
defined in this table.

To determine if a particular object instance is in
a particular SNMP party's MIB view, compare the
object instance's Object Identifier with each
entry (for this party) in this table. If none
match, then the object instance is not in the MIB
view. If one or more match, then the object
instance is included in, or excluded from, the MIB
view according to the value of viewStatus in the
entry whose value of viewSubtree has the most
sub-identifiers. If multiple entries match and
have the same number of sub-identifiers, then the
lexicographically greatest instance of viewStatus
determines the inclusion or exclusion.

An object instance's Object Identifier X matches
an entry in this table when the number of sub-
identifiers in X is at least as many as in the
value of viewSubtree for the entry, and each sub-
identifier in the value of viewSubtree matches its
corresponding sub-identifier in X. Two sub-
identifiers match either if the corresponding bit
of viewMask is zero (the 'wild card' value), or if
they are equal.

Due to this 'wild card' capability, we introduce
the term, a 'family' of view subtrees, to refer to

the set of subtrees defined by a particular
combination of values of viewSubtree and viewMask.
In the case where no 'wild card' is defined in
viewMask, the family of view subtrees reduces to a
single view subtree."

SYNTAX OBJECT IDENTIFIER
ACCESS read-write

DESCRIPTION
"The view subtree which, in combination with the
corresponding instance of viewMask, defines a
family of view subtrees. This family is included
in, or excluded from the particular SNMP party's

MIB view, according to the value of the
corresponding instance of viewStatus."
::= { viewEntry 2 }

viewStatus OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX INTEGER {
included(1),
excluded(2),
invalid(3)
}
ACCESS read-write
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"The status of a particular family of view
subtrees within the particular SNMP party's MIB
view. The value 'included(1)' indicates that the
corresponding instances of viewSubtree and
viewMask define a family of view subtrees included
in the MIB view. The value 'excluded(2)'
indicates that the corresponding instances of
viewSubtree and viewMask define a family of view
subtrees excluded from the MIB view.

Setting an instance of this object to the value
'invalid(3)' has the effect of invalidating the
presence or absence of the corresponding family of
view subtrees in the corresponding SNMP party's
MIB view.

It is an implementation-specific matter as to
whether the agent removes an invalidated entry
from the table. Accordingly, management stations
must be prepared to receive from agents tabular
information corresponding to entries not currently
in use. Proper interpretation of such entries
requires examination of the relevant viewStatus
object."
DEFVAL { included }
::= { viewEntry 3 }

viewMask OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX OCTET STRING (SIZE (0..16))
ACCESS read-write
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"The bit mask which, in combination with the
corresponding instance of viewSubtree, defines a
family of view subtrees.

Each bit of this bit mask corresponds to a sub-
identifier of viewSubtree, with the most
significant bit of the i-th octet of this octet
string value (extended if necessary, see below)
corresponding to the (8*i - 7)-th sub-identifier,
and the least significant bit of the i-th octet of
this octet string corresponding to the (8*i)-th
sub-identifier, where i is in the range 1 through
16.

Each bit of this bit mask specifies whether or not
the corresponding sub-identifiers must match when
determining if an Object Identifier is in this
family of view subtrees; a '1' indicates that an
exact match must occur; a '0' indicates 'wild
card', i.e., any sub-identifier value matches.

Thus, the Object Identifier X of an object
instance is contained in a family of view subtrees
if the following criteria are met:

for each sub-identifier of the value of
viewSubtree, either:

the i-th bit of viewMask is 0, or

the i-th sub-identifier of X is equal to
the i-th sub-identifier of the value of
viewSubtree.

If the value of this bit mask is M bits long and
there are more than M sub-identifiers in the
corresponding instance of viewSubtree, then the
bit mask is extended with 1's to be the required
length.

Note that when the value of this object is the
zero-length string, this extension rule results in
a mask of all-1's being used (i.e., no 'wild
card'), and the family of view subtrees is the one
view subtree uniquely identified by the
corresponding instance of viewSubtree."
