Abstract
This document defines a portion of the Management Information Base
(MIB) for use with network management protocols in the Internet
community. In particular, it describes managed objects related to
the forwarding of Internet Protocol (IP) packets, in an IP version
independent manner. This document obsoletes RFC 2096.

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 MIB consists of one current table and two current global
objects.
1. The object inetCidrRouteNumber indicates the number of
current routes. This is primarily to avoid having to read
the table in order to determine this number.
2. The object inetCidrRouteDiscards counts the number of valid
routes that were discarded from inetCidrRouteTable for any
reason. This object replaces the ipRoutingDiscards and
ipv6DiscardedRoutes objects.
3. The inetCidrRouteTable provides the ability to display IP
version independent multipath CIDR routes.
In addition, there is one deprecated table and object, and one
obsolete table and object, representing previous revisions of this
MIB.
1. The obsolete object ipForwardNumber represents the number of
entries in the obsolete ipForwardTable.
2. The obsolete ipForwardTable updates the RFC 1213
ipRouteTable to display multipath IP Routes. This is in
turn obsoleted by the ipCidrRouteTable.
3. The deprecated object ipCidrRouteNumber represents the
number of entries in the deprecated ipCidrRouteTable.
Wasserman, Haberman Expires December 2003 5
IP Forwarding Table MIB June 2003
4. The deprecated ipCidrRouteTable updates the RFC 1213
ipRouteTable to display multipath IP Routes having the same
network number but differing network masks.

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 identified 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 currently in use. Proper
interpretation of such entries requires examination of
the relevant ipForwardType object."

5 Security Considerations
There are a number of management objects defined in this MIB module
with a MAX-ACCESS clause of read-write and/or read-create. Such
objects may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network
environments. The support for SET operations in a non-secure
environment without proper protection can have a negative effect on
network operations. These are the tables and objects and their
sensitivity/vulnerability:
1. The inetCidrRouteTable contains routing and forwarding
information that is critical to the operation of the network
node (especially routers). Allowing unauthenticated write
access to this table can compromise the validity of the
forwarding information.
Some of the readable objects in this MIB module (i.e., objects with
a MAX-ACCESS other than not-accessible) may be considered sensitive
or vulnerable in some network environments. It is thus important
to control even GET and/or NOTIFY access to these objects and
possibly to even encrypt the values of these objects when sending
them over the network via SNMP. These are the tables and objects
and their sensitivity/vulnerability:
1. The inetCidrRouteTable contains routing and forwarding
information that can be used to compromise a network.
Specifically, this table can be used to construct a map of the
network in preparation for a denial-of-service attack on the
network infrastructure.
2. The inetCidrRouteProto object identifies the routing protocols
in use within a network. This information can be used to
determine how a denial-of-service attack should be launched.
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.

6 Changes from RFC 2096
This document updates RFC 2096 in the following ways:
1. Utilized the InetAddress TC to support IP version independent
implementations of the forwarding MIB. This gives common
forwarding MIB support for IPv4 and IPv6.
2. Creates a read-only conformance statement to support
implementations that only wish to retrieve data.
3. Creates the inetCidrRouteDiscards object to replace the
deprecated ipRoutingDiscards and ipv6DiscardedRoutes objects.
