IP Forwarding Table MIB

Status of this Memo

This RFCspecifies 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 defines objects for managing routes in the IP
Internet.

It is proposed that the ipRouteTable defined by MIB-II (RFC1213) be
deprecated and replaced with this table. This adds the ability to
set or display multi-path routes, and varying routes by network
management policy.

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) [7]
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 [3] 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 [8],
subject to the additional requirements imposed by the SNMP.

2.1. Format of Definitions

Section 4 contains 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 [9].

3. Overview

3.1. Structure of MIB

The IP Forwarding Table is quite analogous to the older ipRoute
Table. The principal differences are:

(1) It is somewhat re-organized, for aesthetic reasons,

(2) It has the Next Hop Autonomous System Number, useful
primarily to the administrators of regional networks,

(3) It is instanced by Policy and Next Hop as well as by
ultimate destination. Thus, multiple multipath routes
can be managed, not just a single route, along with the
circumstances under which the any given route might be
chosen.

4. Definitions

RFC1354-MIB DEFINITIONS ::= BEGIN

IMPORTS
Gauge, IpAddress
FROM RFC1155-SMI
mib-2, ip
FROM RFC1213-MIB
OBJECT-TYPE

-- This MIB module uses the extended OBJECT-TYPE macro as
-- defined in [9].
ipForward OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { ip 24 }

ipForwardNumber OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX Gauge
ACCESS read-only
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"The number of current ipForwardTable entries
that are not invalid."
::= { ipForward 1 }

-- IP Forwarding Table

-- The IP Forwarding Table obsoletes and replaces the ipRoute
-- Table current in MIB-I and MIB-II. It adds knowledge of

-- the autonomous system of the next hop, multiple next hop
-- support, and policy routing support.

ipForwardTable OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX SEQUENCE OF IpForwardEntry
ACCESS not-accessible
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"This entity's IP Routing table."
REFERENCE
"RFC1213 Section 6.6, The IP Group"
::= { ipForward 2 }

}

ipForwardDest OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX IpAddress
ACCESS read-only
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"The destination IP address of this route. An
entry with a value of 0.0.0.0 is considered a
default route.

This object may not take a Multicast (Class D)
address value.

Any assignment (implicit or otherwise) of an
instance of this object to a value x must be
rejected if the bitwise logical-AND of x with
the value of the corresponding instance of the
ipForwardMask object is not equal to x."
::= { ipForwardEntry 1 }

ipForwardMask OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX IpAddress
ACCESS read-write
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"Indicate the mask to be logical-ANDed with the
destination address before being compared to
the value in the ipForwardDest field. For
those systems that do not support arbitrary
subnet masks, an agent constructs the value of
the ipForwardMask by reference to the IP Ad-

dress Class.

Any assignment (implicit or otherwise) of an
instance of this object to a value x must be
rejected if the bitwise logical-AND of x with
the value of the corresponding instance of the
ipForwardDest object is not equal to ipForward-
Dest."
DEFVAL { '00000000'h } -- 0.0.0.0
::= { ipForwardEntry 2 }

-- The following convention is included for specification
-- of TOS Field contents. At this time, the Host Requirements
-- and the Router Requirements documents disagree on the width
-- of the TOS field. This mapping describes the Router
-- Requirements mapping, and leaves room to widen the TOS field
-- without impact to fielded systems.

ipForwardPolicy OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX INTEGER
ACCESS read-only
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"The general set of conditions that would cause
the selection of one multipath route (set of
next hops for a given destination) is referred
to as 'policy'.

Unless the mechanism indicated by ipForwardPro-
to specifies otherwise, the policy specifier is
the IP TOS Field. The encoding of IP TOS is as
specified by the following convention. Zero
indicates the default path if no more specific
policy applies.

Protocols defining 'policy' otherwise must ei-
ther define a set of values which are valid for
this object or must implement an integer-
instanced policy table for which this object's
value acts as an index."

ipForwardNextHop OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX IpAddress
ACCESS read-only
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"On remote routes, the address of the next sys-
tem en route; Otherwise, 0.0.0.0."
::= { ipForwardEntry 4 }

ipForwardIfIndex OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX INTEGER
ACCESS read-write
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"The ifIndex value which identifies the local
interface through which the next hop of this
route should be reached."
DEFVAL { 0 }
::= { ipForwardEntry 5 }

ipForwardType OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX INTEGER {
other (1), -- not specified by this MIB
invalid (2), -- logically deleted
local (3), -- local interface
remote (4) -- remote destination
}
ACCESS read-write
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"The type of route. Note that local(3) refers
to a route for which the next hop is the final

destination; remote(4) refers to a route for
which the next hop is not the final destina-
tion.

Setting this object to the value invalid(2) has
the effect of invalidating the corresponding
entry in the ipForwardTable object. That is,
it effectively disassociates the destination
identified with said entry from the route iden-
tified with said entry. 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 tabular information from
agents that corresponds to entries not current-
ly in use. Proper interpretation of such en-
tries requires examination of the relevant ip-
ForwardType object."
DEFVAL { invalid }
::= { ipForwardEntry 6 }

SYNTAX INTEGER
ACCESS read-only
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"The number of seconds since this route was
last updated or otherwise determined to be

routing protocol by which the route was
learned."
DEFVAL { 0 }
::= { ipForwardEntry 8 }

ipForwardInfo OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX OBJECT IDENTIFIER
ACCESS read-write

DESCRIPTION
"A reference to MIB definitions specific to the
particular routing protocol which is responsi-
ble for this route, as determined by the value
specified in the route's ipForwardProto value.
If this information is not present, its value
should be set to the OBJECT IDENTIFIER { 0 0 },
