1. Introduction
This memo 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 for modeling
point-to-multipoint (P2MP) Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS)
traffic engineering (TE).
MPLS is defined in [RFC3031] and a signaling protocol for
point-to-point (P2P) MPLS-TE (TE extensions to the Resource
Reservation Protocol - RSVP-TE) is defined in [RFC3209]. RSVP-TE is
extended for use in a P2MP environment by [P2MP-TE] following the
requirements set out in [RFC4461].
[RFC3812] provides a MIB module for modeling and controlling P2P
MPLS-TE in conjunction with Textual Conventions defined in [RFC3811].
In addition, [RFC3813] defines a MIB module for modeling and
controlling an MPLS label switching router (LSR) that may support
MPLS-TE. An overview of MPLS MIB modules can be found in [RFC4221].
This document defines a MIB module for managing and controlling P2MP
MPLS-TE. It builds on the objects and tables defined in [RFC3812] so
that P2MP MPLS-TE management is an extension of P2P MPLS-TE
management.
Farrel, Yasukawa & Nadeau [Page 3]
Internet Draft draft-ietf-mpls-p2mp-te-mib-00.txt September 2006
In addition, this document provides a description of how to use the
LSR MIB module [RFC3813] to model and control an LSR that supports
P2MP MPLS-TE.
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14, RFC 2119
[RFC2119].
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. Feature List
The feature list for this MIB module is built on the feature list for
the P2P MPLS-TE MIB module [RFC3812]. The features in the list below
are marked with a star (*) if they are new features for this MIB
module and with a circle (o) if they are features satisfied by
[RFC3812].
* The MIB module supports configuration of point-to-multipoint
unidirectional tunnels.
o MPLS tunnels need not be interfaces, but it is possible to
configure a tunnel as an interface.
o The MIB module supports tunnel establishment via an MPLS
signaling protocol wherein the tunnel parameters are specified
using this MIB module at the head end of the LSP, and end-to-end
tunnel LSP establishment is accomplished via signaling. The MIB
module also supports manually configured tunnels, i.e., those for
which label associations at each hop of the tunnel LSP are
provisioned by the administrator via the LSR MIB [RFC3813].
o The MIB module supports persistent, as well as non-persistent
tunnels.
Farrel, Yasukawa & Nadeau [Page 4]
Internet Draft draft-ietf-mpls-p2mp-te-mib-00.txt September 2006
4. Outline
P2MP MPLS-TE requires that MPLS tunnels are established from a single
source point (the root) to one or more destination points (the
leaves).
Associated with the MPLS tunnel is a set of configured parameters
that describe the forwarding behavior of each LSR along the path of
the label switched paths (LSPs) that support the tunnel. It should
be noted that, according to [RFC4461] these configuration parameters
are invariant across the branches of a P2MP LSP towards different
leaves.
One of the configuration parameters associated with an MPLS tunnel is
the path (or route) that supporting LSPs are required to follow. This
can be specified as a series of loose or strict hops. In P2MP TE,
this specification of the LSP route includes implicit or explicit
identification of the branch points in the P2MP LSPs.
The setup of P2MP tunnels can be achieved as:
- management actions only, by using [RFC3813]
- control plane actions under the direction of management by using
[RFC3812] and the MIB module defined in this document
- control plane actions under the direction of some other management
process, monitored using [RFC3812] and the MIB module defined in
this document.
Note that [GMPLS-TE-MIB] defines a MIB module that can be used to
manage and model Generalized MPLS (GMPL) LSPs - it is a series of MIB
objects and tables some of which extend tables in MPLS-TE-STD-MIB
[RFC3812]. [RFC4461] and [P2MP-TE] are clear that they apply to
MPLS-TE [RFC3031] and GMPLS [RFC3945]. This document describes a MIB
module that can be used for both MPLS-TE and GMPLS P2MP LSPs.
The following section describes the components of the P2MP MPLS-TE
MIB module. The subsequent section provides an explanation and
example of how the P2MP MPLS-TE MIB module can be used for the
processes listed above in combination with the MPLS-TE MIB module
defined in [RFC3812]. A further section describes how P2MP tunnels
can be managed solely through the LSR MIB module defined in
[RFC3813], and gives an example.
4.1. Summary of the P2MP MPLS Traffic Engineering MIB Module
The MIB module consists of the following objects and tables:
- P2MP Tunnel table (mplsTeP2mpTunnelTable) that sparse augments the
MPLS-TE Tunnel table (mplsTunnelTable) and is used to set up and
monitor P2MP MPLS-TE tunnels.
Farrel, Yasukawa & Nadeau [Page 5]
Internet Draft draft-ietf-mpls-p2mp-te-mib-00.txt September 2006
- P2MP Tunnel Destination table (mplsTeP2mpTunnelDestTable) that
lists the destinations (leaves) of each P2MP MPLS-TE tunnel,
provides the status of the tunnel to each destination, and
supplies pointers into the configured hop table, actual route hop
table, and computed hop table (mplsTunnelHopTable,
mplsTunnelARHopTable, and mplsTunnelCHopTable) for the routes to
each of the destinations.
These tables are described in the following sections after a
description of how the MPLS-TE-STD-MIB module [RFC3812] is used as a
basis for MIB management and modeling of P2MP MPLS-TE.
4.2. Use of MPLS-TE-STD-MIB
The MIB module defined in this document builds on the objects and
tables of MPLS-TE-STD-MIB defined in [RFC3812]. That is, most of the
basic properties of the MPLS tunnel are modeled and managed by
objects in MPLS-TE-STD-MIB, and new objects are only defined within
this document where additional features or different behavior is
required.
When an MPLS-TE tunnel is a P2MP tunnel, certain objects in the
mplsTunnelTable have new meanings just as the signaling objects in
RSVP-TE [RFC3209] have different meanings when the signaling messages
are used to establish P2MP LSPs [P2MP-TE].
As indicated in the next section, the presence of the
mplsTeP2mpTunnelTable of the MIB module defined in this document with
the object mplsTeP2mpTunnel containing the value True (1) shows that
a tunnel defined in the mplsTunnelTable of MPLS-TE-STD-MIB is a P2MP
tunnel. Under those circumstances the following objects from
MPLS-TE-STD-MIB MUST be interpreted as follows. The text below is
supplementary for the Description clauses in [RFC3812].
mplsTunnelMaxHops
This object continues to refer to the maximum number of hops that
can be configured to a single destination for a tunnel on this
device. Thus, for a P2MP tunnel, this refers to the maximum number
of hops that can be configured on this device to any individual
destination of the tunnel.
A new object, mplsTeP2mpTunnelTotalMaxHops, is defined in this MIB
module to supply the total number of hops across all destinations
of a P2MP tunnel.
Farrel, Yasukawa & Nadeau [Page 6]
Internet Draft draft-ietf-mpls-p2mp-te-mib-00.txt September 2006
mplsTunnelEgressLSRId
This object continues to map to the field in the RSVP-TE Session
Object that occupies the space used by the IPv4 Tunnel Endpoint
Address [RFC3209], but for a P2MP tunnel, this object does not
identify an address of the egress of the tunnel. Instead it
contains the P2MP ID value that identifies the identifier of the
set of destinations for the P2MP tunnel and is carried in the P2MP
Session Object [P2MP-TE]. The Description clause for this object
can be read as follows.
"Identity of the egress LSR associated with this
tunnel instance.
When an entry in the mplsTeP2mpTunnelTable is present
corresponding to this entry in the mplsTunnelTable and when
the mplsTeP2mpTunnel object in that table entry is present
with the value True(1), this object contains the P2MP ID that
identifies the set of destinations of this tunnel and that is
signaled in the P2MP ID field of the P2MP Session Object if
the MPLS signaling protocol for this tunnel indicated by
mplsTunnelSignallingProto in MPLS-TE-STD-MIB is rsvp (2)."
The destinations of the P2MP tunnel are found in the new
mplsTeP2mpTunnelDestTable.
mplsTunnelHopTableIndex
If the tunnel is a P2MP tunnel as indicated by the presence of an
entry in the mplsTeP2mpTunnelTable corresponding to this tunnel
and when the mplsTeP2mpTunnel object in that table entry is
present with the value True (1), this object is not used. This is
because the destinations and paths to those destinations are found
in the mplsTeP2mpTunnelDestTable.
If this object is present for a P2MP tunnel, it should contain the
value 0.
mplsTunnelPathInUse
If the tunnel is a P2MP tunnel as indicated by the presence of an
entry in the mplsTeP2mpTunnelTable corresponding to this tunnel
and when the mplsTeP2mpTunnel object in that table entry is
present with the value True(1), this object is not used. This is
because the destinations and paths to those destinations are found
in the mplsTeP2mpTunnelDestTable.
If this object is present for a P2MP tunnel, it should contain the
value 0.
Farrel, Yasukawa & Nadeau [Page 7]
Internet Draft draft-ietf-mpls-p2mp-te-mib-00.txt September 2006
mplsTunnelARHopTableIndex
If the tunnel is a P2MP tunnel as indicated by the presence of an
entry in the mplsTeP2mpTunnelTable corresponding to this tunnel
and when the mplsTeP2mpTunnel object in that table entry is
present with the value True(1), this object is not used. This is
because the destinations and paths to those destinations are found
in the mplsTeP2mpTunnelDestTable.
If this object is present for a P2MP tunnel, it should contain the
value 0.
mplsTunnelCHopTableIndex
If the tunnel is a P2MP tunnel as indicated by the presence of an
entry in the mplsTeP2mpTunnelTable corresponding to this tunnel
and when the mplsTeP2mpTunnel object in that table entry is
present with the value True(1), this object is not used. This is
because the destinations and paths to those destinations are found
in the mplsTeP2mpTunnelDestTable.
If this object is present for a P2MP tunnel, it should contain the
value 0.
4.3. mplsTeP2mpTunnelTable
The mplsTeP2mpTunnelTable extends (through a sparse augmentation) the
MPLS Tunnel table (mplsTunnelTable) from MPLS-TE-STD-MIB [RFC3812] to
allow P2MP MPLS-TE tunnels to be created, controlled and monitored at
any LSR in the network.
A P2MP MPLS-TE tunnel may be represented in the MIB, by defining it
in the mplsTunnelTable and providing objects in this table to
indicate that it is a P2MP tunnel and to define P2MP-specific
properties of this tunnel.
4.4. mplsTeP2mpTunnelDestTable
P2MP LSPs have multiple destinations and, although the LSP parameters
(such as bandwidth) for each destination are the same, the explicit
route requested, computed, and signaled is different for each
destination. The mplsTeP2mpTunnelDestTable encodes each destination
and the information specific to the LSP to that destination.
Farrel, Yasukawa & Nadeau [Page 8]
Internet Draft draft-ietf-mpls-p2mp-te-mib-00.txt September 2006
4.5. mplsTeP2mpTunnelBranchPerfTable
Per-tunnel statistics are counted in mplsTunnelPerfTable in
MPLS-TE-STD-MIB [RFC3812], but these objects are only partially
useful for a P2MP tunnel. The five objects in that table
(mplsTunnelPerfPackets, mplsTunnelPerfHCPackets,
mplsTunnelPerfErrors, mplsTunnelPerfBytes, mplsTunnelPerfHCBytes)
continue to be used for tunnels that forward packets, and reflect
the counts of data received on the incoming interface and forwarded
to the downstream interfaces.
However, in a P2MP tunnel, the downstream interfaces (out-segments)
may behave differently and so it is appropriate to record the
performance on each out-going branch. This is achieved through the
mplsTeP2mpTunnelBranchPerfTable which is indexed by the tunnel
identifiers and by the same identifier of the branch as is used in
mplsTeP2mpTunnelDestTable.

5.2. Remerge Cases in the P2MP MPLS-TE MIB Module

6. Managing P2MP MPLS-TE LSPs Through the LSR MIB Module
The nature of P2MP tunnels is such that an LSR that is crossed by a
tunnel may either be the ingress of that tunnel or have precisely one
upstream LSP segment (also known as in-segment [RFC3812]) for that
LSP. On the other hand, any LSR that is crossed by a tunnel may be an
egress for that tunnel, have one or more downstream segments (also
known as out-segments [RFC3812]) for that tunnel, or be both an
egress and have one or more out-segments. Thus, for an LSP at an LSR
there may be zero or one in-segments, and zero, one, or more than one
out-segments.
In-segments, out-segments and their relationship through
cross-connections are modeled and managed in the MPLS-LSR-STD-MIB
module [RFC3813]. The mplsInSegmentTable contains in-segments, and
the mplsOutSegmentTable contains out-segments. The mplsXCTable
maintains the relationships between in- and out-segments such that
any many-to-many relationship is allowed. Each segment points into
the mplsXCTable using mplsInSegmentXCIndex and mplsOutSegmentXCIndex.
Farrel, Yasukawa & Nadeau [Page 9]
Internet Draft draft-ietf-mpls-p2mp-te-mib-00.txt September 2006
The mplsXCTable contains a series of entries indexed by the primary
mplsXCIndex object and subsidiary indexes mplsXCInSegmentIndex and
mplsXCOutSegmentIndex.
A single P2MP cross-connect has zero or one in-segment. At the
ingress LSR, there is no in-segment and mplsXCInSegmentIndex is set
to the single octet 0x00. At transit LSRs, there is exactly one
in-segment and mplsXCInSegmentIndex is set to the value of
mplsInSegmentIndex for the in-segment as it appears in the
mplsInSegmentTable.
A single P2MP cross-connect has zero, one or many out-segments. If
there is no out-segment (the cross-connect is on an egress LSR),
there is one entry in the mplsXCTable indexed by mplsXCIndex set to
mplsInSegmentXCIndex from the in-segment's entry in
mplsInSegmentTable, mplsXCInSegmentIndex set to the value of
mplsInSegmentIndex that identifies the in-segment in
mplsInSegmentTable, and mplsXCOutSegmentIndex set to the single octet
0x00. This behavior is exactly as described in [RFC3813].
If there is exactly one out-segment (the cross-connect is on a
transit LSR) then the behavior is also exactly as described in
[RFC3813], and as well as the in-segment objects described in the
previous paragraph, mplsXCOutSegmentIndex is set to the value of
mplsOutSegmentIndex that identifies the out-segment in
mplsOutSegmentTable. Note that mplsInSegmentXCIndex and
mplsOutSegmentXCIndex from the relevant table entries will have the
same value which will provide the value of mplsXCIndex for the
cross-connect.
If there is more than one out-segment then there is one entry in
mplsXCTable table for each out-segment. The value of mplsXCIndex is
consistent across all of these table entries, and the in-segment
index (mplsXCInSegmentIndex) is also consistent identifying the
single in-segment or (on the ingress LSR) containing the single octet
0x00. Each of these mplsXCTable entries contains a different
mplsXCOutSegmentIndex value so that the table can easily be walked to
find all of the out-segments for the same cross-connect.
Finally, if an LSR is an egress as well as a transit or branch for
the P2MP LSP (we call this a bud LSR), mplsXCTable contains the
entries described above in combination. That is, one entry will have
mplsXCOutSegmentIndex set to the single octet 0x00, and other entries
with the same value of mplsXCIndex and mplsXCInSegmentIndex will
exist for each out-segment.

6.1. Example Use of the LSR MIB Module
This section demonstrates how the objects in MPLS-LSR-STD-MIB would
be set for an example P2MP LSP cross-connect. The information here
does not show how and in what order these objects should be set to
create the cross-connect, but shows what information would be read if
the tables were examined.
The figure shows the LSP at the LSR that is being examined. There are
three interfaces to LSR X: 10, 21 and 22. The LSP enters through
interface 10 using label 7, and exits through interfaces 21 and 22
using labels 8 and 9 respectively. Let us assume that LSR X is also
an egress for the LSP.
-------
| |21 Label 8
Label 7 | +------------->
--->----------+ LSR X |
10| +------------->
| |22 Label 9
-------
In mplsInSegmentTable there is a single entry
{
mplsInSegmentIndex = 0x00000015,
mplsInSegmentLabel = 7, -- incoming label
mplsInSegmentNPop = 1,
mplsInSegmentInterface = 10, -- incoming interface
mplsInSegmentXCIndex = 0x37 -- index into XC table
}
In mplsOutSegmentTable there are two entries.
{
mplsOutSegmentIndex = 0x00000432,
mplsOutSegmentPushTopLabel = true(1),
mplsOutSegmentTopLabel = 8, -- outgoing label
mplsOutSegmentInterface = 21, -- outgoing interface
mplsOutSegmentXCIndex = 0x37 -- index into XC table
}
{
mplsOutSegmentIndex = 0x00000017,
mplsOutSegmentPushTopLabel = true(1),
mplsOutSegmentTopLabel = 9, -- outgoing label
mplsOutSegmentInterface = 22, -- outgoing interface
mplsOutSegmentXCIndex = 0x37 -- index into XC table
}
Farrel, Yasukawa & Nadeau [Page 11]
Internet Draft draft-ietf-mpls-p2mp-te-mib-00.txt September 2006
In mplsXCTable there are three entries. The first two are for the
cross-connections to the out-segments, and the third is for the local
egress.
{
mplsXCIndex = 0x37, -- common index
mplsXCInSegmentIndex = 0x00000015,-- the in-segment
mplsXCOutSegmentIndex = 0x00000432,-- first out-segment
mplsXCLspId = 0x0102 -- unique LSP ID
mplsXCLabelStackIndex = 0x00, -- only one outgoing label
}
{
mplsXCIndex = 0x37, -- common index
mplsXCInSegmentIndex = 0x00000015,-- the in-segment
mplsXCOutSegmentIndex = 0x00000017,-- second out-segment
mplsXCLspId = 0x0102 -- unique LSP ID
mplsXCLabelStackIndex = 0x00, -- only one outgoing label
}
{
mplsXCIndex = 0x37, -- common index
mplsXCInSegmentIndex = 0x00000015,-- the in-segment
mplsXCOutSegmentIndex = 0x00, -- no out-segment
mplsXCLspId = 0x0102 -- unique LSP ID
mplsXCLabelStackIndex = 0x00, -- no other outgoing label

8. Security Considerations
It is clear that this MIB module is potentially useful for the
monitoring of P2MP MPLS TE tunnels. This MIB module can also be used
for the configuration of certain objects, and anything that can be
configured can be incorrectly configured, with potentially disastrous
results.
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:
- The mplsTeP2mpTunnelTable and mplsTeP2mpTunnelDestTable contain
objects that can be used to provision P2MP MPLS tunnels, the
destinations of those tunnels, and the hops that those tunnels take
through the network. Unauthorized access to objects in these tables
could result in disruption of traffic in the network. This is
especially true if a tunnel has already been established.
The use of stronger mechanisms, such as SNMPv3 security, should be
considered where possible. Specifically, SNMPv3 VACM and USM MUST
be used with any v3 agent which implements this MIB module.
Administrators SHOULD also consider whether read access to these
objects is allowed, since read access may be undesirable under
certain circumstances as described below.
- The use of this MIB module depends on the use of certain objects
within MPLS-TE-STD-MIB defined in [RFC3812]. Note that those
objects are also subject to the same security considerations, and
any vulnerability to those objects could compromise the P2MP MPLS
tunnels and/or data in the network. The security section of
[RFC3812] MUST be applied in conjunction with this security
section.
Farrel, Yasukawa & Nadeau [Page 37]
Internet Draft draft-ietf-mpls-p2mp-te-mib-00.txt September 2006
- This MIB module does not depend on MPLS-LSR-STD-MIB, but may be
used in conjunction with that MIB module. If MPLS-LSR-STD-MIB is
implemented on an LSR, then access to its objects can compromise
any P2MP MPLS tunnels that start or end on, or transit the LSR.
MPLS-LSR-STD-MIB is defined in [RFC3813] which has its own security
section that MUST be applied in conjunction with this security
section if both MIB modules are supported.
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
even to encrypt the values of these objects when sending them over
the network via SNMP. These are the tables and objects and their
sensitivity/vulnerability:
- The mplsTeP2mpTunnelTable, mplsTeP2mpTunnelDestTable, and
mplsTeP2mpTunnelBranchPerfTable collectively show information about
the P2MP MPLS tunnel, its route through the network, and its
performance characteristics. Knowledge of this information could be
used to compromise the network, or simply to breach
confidentiality. If an Administrator does not want to reveal this
information, these tables should be considered
sensitive/vulnerable.
- The objects in MPLS-TE-STD-MIB also provide information about the
P2MP MPLS tunnels defined in this MIB module. If an Administrator
does not want to reveal this information, the security section of
[RFC3812] should be applied.
- The objects in MPLS-LSR-STD-MIB, if implemented, may also provide
information about the P2MP MPLS tunnels present at an LSR,
especially the label swapping and cross-connect operations. If an
Administrator does not want to reveal this information, the
security section of [RFC3813] should be applied.
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 that SNMPv3 be deployed and
cryptographic security enabled. It is then a customer/operator
Farrel, Yasukawa & Nadeau [Page 38]
Internet Draft draft-ietf-mpls-p2mp-te-mib-00.txt September 2006
responsibility to ensure that the SNMP entity giving access to an
instance of this MIB module is properly configured to give access to
only those principals (users) that have legitimate rights to those
objects.

10. IANA Considerations
As requested in MPLS-TC-STD-MIB [RFC3811], MPLS-related standards
track MIB modules should be rooted under the mplsStdMIB subtree.
There is one new MPLS MIB module contained in this document, and the
following "IANA Considerations" subsection requests IANA for a new
assignment under the mplsStdMIB subtree.
New assignments can only be made via a Standards Action as specified
in [RFC2434].
10.1. IANA Considerations for MPLS-TE-P2MP-STD-MIB
IANA is requested to assign an oid under the mplsStdMIB subtree to
the MPLS-TE-P2MP-STD-MIB module specified in this document.
-- RFC Editor. Please see the marker YYY in this document and replace it
-- with the value assigned by IANA.
-- Please remove this note.
