RFC1451 Manager-to-Manager MIB April 1993
1. Introduction
A network management system contains: several (potentially
many) nodes, each with a processing entity, termed an agent,
which has access to management instrumentation; at least one
management station; and, a management protocol, used to convey
management information between the agents and management
stations. Operations of the protocol are carried out under an
administrative framework which defines both authentication and
authorization policies.
Network management stations execute management applications
which monitor and control network elements. Network elements
are devices such as hosts, routers, terminal servers, etc.,
which are monitored and controlled through access to their
management information.
Management information is viewed as a collection of managed
objects, residing in a virtual information store, termed the
Management Information Base (MIB). Collections of related
objects are defined in MIB modules. These modules are written
using a subset of OSI's Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1)
[1], termed the Structure of Management Information (SMI) [2].
The management protocol, version 2 of the Simple Network
Management Protocol [3], provides for the exchange of messages
which convey management information between the agents and the
management stations, including between management stations.
It is the purpose of this document to define managed objects
which describe the behavior of a SNMPv2 entity acting in both
a manager role and an agent role.
1.1. A Note on Terminology
For the purpose of exposition, the original Internet-standard
Network Management Framework, as described in RFCs 1155, 1157,
and 1212, is termed the SNMP version 1 framework (SNMPv1).
The current framework is termed the SNMP version 2 framework
(SNMPv2).
RFC1451 Manager-to-Manager MIB April 1993
2. Overview
The purpose of this MIB is to provide the means for
coordination between multiple management stations. That is,
the means by which the controlling and monitoring functions of
network management can be distributed amongst multiple
management stations. Such distribution facilitates the
scaling of network management solutions based on the SNMPv2 to
meet the needs of very large networks, or of networks composed
of multiple interconnected administrations. Specifically, this
MIB provides the means for one management station to request
management services from another management station.
2.1. A SNMPv2 Entity Acting in a Dual Role
A management station providing services to other management
station(s), is a SNMPv2 entity which acts in the dual role of
both manager and agent; the requests for service are received
through acting in an agent role (with respect to the managed
objects defined in this MIB), and the requested services are
performed through acting in a manager role.
2.2. Alarms, Events, and Notifications
In this initial version, this MIB defines the concepts of
"alarms", "events", and "notifications". Each alarm is a
specific condition detected through the periodic (at a
configured sampling interval) monitoring of the value of a
specific management information variable. An example of an
alarm condition is when the monitored variable falls outside a
configured range. Each alarm condition triggers an event, and
each event can cause (one or more) notifications to be
reported to other management stations using the Inform-Request
PDU.
Specifically, this MIB defines three MIB tables and a number
of scalar objects. The three tables are: the Alarm Table, the
Event Table, and the Notification Table.
RFC1451 Manager-to-Manager MIB April 1993
2.3. Access Control
The Administrative Model for SNMPv2 document [4] includes an
access control model, which must not be subverted by allowing
access to management information variables via the Alarm
table. That is, access to a monitored variable via the Alarm
table must be controlled according to the identity of the
management station accessing the particular entry in the Alarm
table.
An entry in the Alarm table provides the means to configure
the sampling of the value of a MIB variable in the MIB view
associated with the specified context (which can refer to
object resources that are either local or remote). The
sampling is done by (conceptually or actually) issuing a
SNMPv2 request to retrieve the variable's value. This request
is authenticated and/or protected from disclosure according to
a source party and a destination party pair which has access
to the indicated context.
Thus, to provide the required access control, the initial MIB
view assigned, by convention, to parties on SNMPv2 entities
that implement the snmpAlarmTable, must include the component:
viewSubtree = { snmpAlarm }
viewStatus = { excluded }
viewMask = { ''H }
Then, the MIB view associated with the context,
requestContext, accessible by a requesting management station,
can be configured to include specific Alarm table entries --
the ones associated with those contexts to which the
requesting management station has access.
In particular, to provide a requestContext with access to the
sampling context sampleContext, the following family of view
subtrees would be included for the requestContext on the
SNMPv2 entity acting in a dual role:
{ snmpAlarmEntry WILDCARD sampleContext }
Which would be configured in the party MIB [5] as:
contextIdentity = { requestContext }
contextViewIndex = { ViewIndex }
RFC1451 Manager-to-Manager MIB April 1993
viewIndex = { ViewIndex }
viewSubtree = { snmpAlarmEntry 0 sampleContext }
viewStatus = { included }
viewMask = { 'FFEF'H } -- specifies wildcard for column

-- acting in a dual role.
snmpAlarm OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { snmpM2MObjects 1 }
-- This Alarm mechanism periodically takes statistical samples
-- from variables available via SNMPv2 and compares them to
-- thresholds that have been configured. The alarm table
-- stores configuration entries that each define a variable,
-- polling period, and threshold parameters. If a sample is
-- found to cross the threshold values, an event is generated.
-- Only variables that resolve to an ASN.1 primitive type of
-- INTEGER (Integer32, Counter32, Gauge32, TimeTicks,
-- Counter64, or UInteger32) may be monitored in this way.
--
-- This function has a hysteresis mechanism to limit the
-- generation of events. This mechanism generates one event
-- as a threshold is crossed in the appropriate direction. No
-- more events are generated for that threshold until the
-- opposite threshold is crossed.
--
-- In the case of sampling a deltaValue, an entity may
-- implement this mechanism with more precision if it takes a
-- delta sample twice per period, each time comparing the sum
-- of the latest two samples to the threshold. This allows
-- the detection of threshold crossings that span the sampling
-- boundary. Note that this does not require any special
-- configuration of the threshold value. It is suggested that
-- entities implement this more precise algorithm.

RFC1451 Manager-to-Manager MIB April 1993
snmpAlarmVariable OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX InstancePointer
MAX-ACCESS read-create

DESCRIPTION
"The object identifier of the particular variable
to be sampled. Only variables that resolve to an
ASN.1 primitive type of INTEGER (Integer32,
Counter32, Gauge32, TimeTicks, Counter64, or
UInteger32) may be sampled.
If it is detected by an error response of
authorizationError, noSuchObject, or
noSuchInstance that the variable name of an
established snmpAlarmEntry is no longer available
in the sampling context, a single
snmpObjectUnavailableAlarm event is generated and
the status of this snmpAlarmEntry is set to
`destroy'. Likewise, if the syntax of the
variable retrieved by the query is not Integer32,
Counter32, Gauge32, TimeTicks, Counter64, or
UInteger32, the same actions will be taken.
If the SNMPv2 entity acting in a dual role detects
that the sampled value can not be obtained due to
lack of response to management queries, it should
either:
1) Set the status of this snmpAlarmEntry to
`destroy', if it is determined that further
communication is not possible;
or,
2) Delete the associated snmpAlarmValue
instance (but not the entire conceptual row),
and continue to attempt to sample the
variable and recreate the associated
snmpAlarmValue instance should communication
be reestablished.
An attempt to modify this object will fail with an
`inconsistentValue' error if the associated
snmpAlarmStatus object would be equal to `active'
both before and after the modification attempt."

DESCRIPTION
"The method of sampling the selected variable and
calculating the value to be compared against the
thresholds. If the value of this object is
`absoluteValue', the value of the selected
variable at the end of the sampling interval will
be compared directly with both the
snmpAlarmRisingThreshold and the
snmpAlarmFallingThreshold values. If the value of
this object is `deltaValue', the value of the
selected variable at the end of the sampling
interval will be subtracted from its value at the
end of the previous sampling interval, and the
difference compared with both the
snmpAlarmRisingThreshold and the
snmpAlarmFallingThreshold values.

statistic does not fit in the signed 32 bit
representation of this object, it should be
truncated in an implementation specific manner.
Note that if the associated snmpAlarmSampleType is
set to `deltaValue', the value of this object is
the difference in the sampled variable since the
last sample.
This object will be created by the SNMPv2 entity
acting in a dual role when this entry is set to
