1. The SNMP Management Framework
The SNMP Management Framework presently consists of five major
components:
o An overall architecture, described in RFC 2571 [RFC2571].
o Mechanisms for describing and naming objects and events for the
purpose of management. The first version of this Structure of
Management Information (SMI) is called SMIv1 and described in STD
16, RFC 1155 [RFC1155], STD 16, RFC 1212 [RFC1212] and RFC 1215
[RFC1215]. The second version, called SMIv2, is described in STD
58: RFC 2578 [RFC2578], RFC 2579 [RFC2579] and RFC 2580 [RFC2580].
o Message protocols for transferring management information. The
first version of the SNMP message protocol is called SNMPv1 and
described in STD 15, RFC 1157 [RFC1157]. A second version of the
SNMP message protocol, which is not an Internet standards track
protocol, is called SNMPv2c and described in RFC 1901 [RFC1901]
and RFC 1906 [RFC1906]. The third version of the message protocol
is called SNMPv3 and described in RFC 1906 [RFC1906], RFC 2572
[RFC2572] and RFC 2574 [RFC2574].
o Protocol operations for accessing management information. The
first set of protocol operations and associated PDU formats is
described in STD 15, RFC 1157 [RFC1157]. A second set of protocol
operations and associated PDU formats is described in RFC 1905
[RFC1905].
o A set of fundamental applications described in RFC 2573 [RFC2573]
and the view-based access control mechanism described in RFC 2575
[RFC2575].
A more detailed introduction to the current SNMP Management Framework
can be found in RFC 2570 [RFC2570].
Managed objects are accessed via a virtual information store, termed
the Management Information Base or MIB. Objects in the MIB are
defined using the mechanisms defined in the SMI.
This memo specifies a MIB module that is compliant to the SMIv2. A
MIB conforming to the SMIv1 can be produced through the appropriate
translations. The resulting translated MIB must be semantically
equivalent, except where objects or events are omitted because no
translation is possible (use of Counter64). Some machine readable
information in SMIv2 will be converted into textual descriptions in
SMIv1 during the translation process. However, this loss of machine
readable information is not considered to change the semantics of the
MIB.
2. Overview
This document defines a Management Information Base (MIB) for
monitoring and controlling the UNI/NNI Multilink Frame Relay
function. The agreement on which this MIB is based was defined and
documented by the Frame Relay Forum in the Frame Relay Forum Document
FRF.16 [FRF.16].
2.1. Multilink Frame Relay Background
Multilink Frame Relay (MFR) for the User-to-Network Interface (UNI)
and the Network-to-Network Interface (NNI) provides physical
interface emulation for frame relay devices. The emulated physical
interface consists of one or more physical links, called "bundle
links", aggregated together into a single "bundle" of bandwidth.
This service provides a frame-based inverse multiplexing function,
sometimes referred to as an "IMUX".
The bundle provides the same order-preserving service as a physical
layer for frames sent on a data link connection. In addition, the
bundle provides support for all Frame Relay services based on UNI and
NNI standards.
2.1.1. Terminology
Physical Link -- A single physical interface that interconnects
two devices in a frame relay network (e.g., DS1,
DS0, Bearer channel, refer to FRF.14).
Bundle -- A grouping of one or more physical links using
the formats and procedures of multilink frame
relay. The bundle operates as a logical
interface function that emulates a single
physical interface to the Q.922 data link layer.
Bundle Link -- A MFR sub-component that controls operation of
one of the bundle's physical links.

2.2. Structure of the MIB
The UNI/NNI MFR managed objects consist of two scalar objects and
three tables.
2.2.1. mfrBundleMaxNumBundles
This scalar is used to inform the manager of the maximum number of
bundles supported by this device.
2.2.2. mfrBundleNextIndex
This scalar is used to assist the manager in selecting a value for
mfrBundleIndex during row creation. It can also be used to avoid
race conditions with multiple managers trying to create rows in the
table (see RFC 2494 [RFC2494] for one such algorithm).
2.2.3. mfrBundleTable
This table provides a means to configure and monitor bundles. It is
indexed by mfrBundleIndex and contains these columns:
- mfrBundleIndex Integer32
- mfrBundleIfIndex InterfaceIndex
- mfrBundleRowStatus RowStatus
- mfrBundleNearEndName SnmpAdminString
- mfrBundleFragmentation INTEGER
- mfrBundleMaxFragSize Integer32
- mfrBundleTimerHello INTEGER
- mfrBundleTimerAck INTEGER
- mfrBundleCountMaxRetry INTEGER
- mfrBundleActivationClass INTEGER
- mfrBundleThreshold Integer32
- mfrBundleMaxDiffDelay Integer32
- mfrBundleSeqNumSize INTEGER
- mfrBundleLinksConfigured Integer32
- mfrBundleLinksActive Integer32
- mfrBundleBandwidth Integer32
- mfrBundleFarEndName SnmpAdminString
- mfrBundleResequencingErrors Counter32
2.2.4. Bundle-to-ifIndex Mapping Table
This table provides a means to take an ifIndex and find the
corresponding mfrBundleIndex. It is indexed by ifIndex and contains
these columns:
- mfrBundleIfIndexMapping Integer32
2.2.5. mfrBundleLinkTable
This table provides a means to configure and monitor bundle links.
It is indexed by ifIndex and contains these columns:
- mfrBundleLinkRowStatus RowStatus
- mfrBundleLinkConfigBundleIndex Integer32
- mfrBundleLinkNearEndName SnmpAdminString
- mfrBundleLinkState MfrBundleLinkState
- mfrBundleLinkFarEndName SnmpAdminString
- mfrBundleLinkFarEndBundleName SnmpAdminString
- mfrBundleLinkDelay Integer32
- mfrBundleLinkFramesControlTx Counter32
- mfrBundleLinkFramesControlRx Counter32
- mfrBundleLinkFramesControlInvalid Counter32
- mfrBundleLinkTimerExpiredCount Counter32
- mfrBundleLinkLoopbackSuspected Counter32
- mfrBundleLinkUnexpectedSequence Counter32
- mfrBundleLinkMismatch Counter32
2.3. Relationship With Other MIBS and Tables
2.3.1. Relationship With Interface Table
2.3.1.1. Bundle Links
Each bundle link will appear as an interface in the ifTable. The
ifIndex that appears in the ifTable is used for indexing the bundle
link tables in the UNI-NNI MFR MIB.
2.3.1.2. Bundles
Each bundle will appear as an interface in the ifTable. There will
be corresponding mfrBundleIndex which may be different than the
ifIndex of the bundle.
The reason is best summarized in RFC 2494 [RFC2494], which describes
frame relay bundle of DS0. It says:
This table is not indexed by ifIndex because the manager has to
choose the index in a createable row and the agent must be allowed
to select ifIndex values.
The rows in the ifEntry table are not createable as they do not have
row status. RFC 2863 [RFC2863] suggests that the ifIndex should be
chosen by the agent. Here is its statement regarding row creation
and deletion:
While some interfaces, for example, most physical interfaces,
cannot be created via network management, other interfaces such as
logical interfaces sometimes can be. The ifTable contains only
generic information about an interface. Almost all 'create-able'
interfaces have other, media-specific, information through which
configuration parameters may be supplied prior to creating such an
interface. Thus, the ifTable does not itself support the creation
or deletion of an interface (specifically, it has no RowStatus
column). Rather, if a particular interface type supports the
dynamic creation and/or deletion of an interface of that type,
then that media-specific MIB should include an appropriate
RowStatus object (see the ATM LAN-Emulation Client MIB [ATMLANE]
for an example of a MIB which does this). Typically, when such a
RowStatus object is created/deleted, then the conceptual row in
the ifTable appears/disappears as a by-product, and an ifIndex
value (chosen by the agent) is stored in an appropriate object in
the media-specific MIB.
The ATM LAN-Emulation Client MIB [ATMLANE] uses different indices and
so does the IMA MIB [ATMIMA]. Looking at the examples we have, and
the statements from RFC, it seems better to have two indices. This
gives the SNMP agent implementor the freedom to manage their ifIndex
in the way they like.
2.3.1.3. Mapping Between ifIndex and mfrBundleIndex
The mfrBundleIfIndexMappingTable is indexed by ifIndex and provides
the means to map a given ifIndex into the corresponding
mfrBundleIndex. The mfrBundleIfIndexMapping object in the
mfrBundleTable (indexed by mfrBundleIndex) provides the reverse
mapping of a mfrBundleIndex to the corresponding ifIndex in the
ifTable.
2.3.1.4. ifTable Objects
The bundle configuration and status table. There is a one-to-one
correspondence between a bundle and an interface represented in the
ifTable.
The following objects of the ifTable have specific meaning for an MFR
bundle:
ifAdminStatus - the bundle admin status
ifOperStatus - the bundle operational status
ifSpeed - the current bandwidth of the bundle
ifInUcastPkts - the number of frames received on the bundle
ifOutUcastPkts - the number of frames transmitted on the bundle
ifInErrors - frame (not fragment) errors
ifOutErrors - frame (not fragment) errors
The following objects of the ifTable have specific meaning for an MFR
bundle link:
ifAdminStatus - the bundle link admin status
ifOperStatus - the bundle link operational status
ifSpeed - the bandwidth of the bundle link interface
ifInUcastPkts - the number of frames received on the bundle link
ifOutUcastPkts - the number of frames transmitted on the bundle
link
ifInErrors - frame and fragment errors
ifOutErrors - frame and fragment errors
2.3.2. Relationship With Interface Stack Table
The bundles and bundle links will appear in the ifStackTable defined
in RFC 2863 [RFC2863]. Each bundle link will appear a lower layer to
its owner bundle. The bundle will appear as a higher layer to the
bundle links and as a lower layer to a frame relay service or UNI.
2.3.3. Relationship With Frame Relay DTE MIB
The bundle will have a one-to-one correspondence with a DLCMI or UNI
that appear in the DTE MIB tables [RFC2115].
2.3.4. Relationship With Frame Relay Service MIB
There is a one-to-one relationship between the MFR bundle and the
frame relay service logical port defined in RFC1604 [RFC1604].
2.3.5. Example
Figure two shows an example of how the various tables are related.
This example shows two bundles composed of 2 T1s each. The bundles
have a mfrBundleIndex of 10 and 20 respectively.
+-------------------------+
| Frame Relay Service |
+-----+-------------+-----+

+-----+------+------+-----+
| MFR Bundle | MFR Bundle |
| 10 | 20 |
+--+-----+---+---+-----+--+

+-+-+ +-+-+ +-+-+ +-+-+
|T1 | |T1 | |T1 | |T1 |
+---+ +---+ +-+-+ +---+
Figure 2: Frame Relay Service Being Carried on 4 T1s
The assignment of the ifTable index values could for example be:
ifIndex | Description | ifType
--------+----------------------------+----------------------
1 | FrameRelayService | frameRelayService(44)
2 | MFR Bundle #10 | frf16MfrBundle(163)
3 | MFR Bundle #20 | frf16MfrBundle(163)
4 | ds1 #1/MFR Bundle Link #1 | ds1(18)
5 | ds1 #2/MFR Bundle Link #2 | ds1(18)
6 | ds1 #3/MFR Bundle Link #3 | ds1(18)
7 | ds1 #4/MFR Bundle Link #4 | ds1(18)
The ifStackTable is then used to show the relationships between the
various interfaces.
HigherLayer | LowerLayer

1 | 3
2 | 4
2 | 5
3 | 6
3 | 7
4 | 0
5 | 0
6 | 0

The mfrBundleIfIndexMappingTable shows the relationship between the
ifTable ifIndex and the mfrBundleIndex:
ifIndex | mfrBundleIfIndexMappingIndex
--------+-----------------------------
2 | 10
3 | 20
The mfrBundleTable shows the relationship between the mfrBundleIndex
and the ifIndex:
mfrBundleIndex | mfrBundleIfIndex
---------------+-----------------
10 | 2
20 | 3
The mfrBundleLinkTable shows the relationship between the bundles and
bundle links:
mfrBundleIndex | mfrBundleLinkIfIndex
---------------+---------------------
10 | 4
10 | 5
20 | 6
20 | 7
2.4. Creation Of Bundles and Bundle Links
2.4.1. Creation Of Bundles
A new bundle is created by setting a createAndGo(4) value in the
mfrBundleRowStatus RowStatus object. Optionally, an agent could also
support setting a value of createAndWait(5) followed by a set to the
value active(1).
When a bundle is created, the agent must create a new interface in
the ifTable. The ifIndex for this new interface is used for the
value of mfrBundleIfIndex.
2.4.2. Creation Of Bundle Links
A new bundle link is created by setting a createAndGo(4) value in the
mfrBundleLinkRowStatus RowStatus object.
The bundle link is associated with a specific physical interface and
uses the ifIndex of the physical interface. The mfrBundleLinkEntry
row objects may be created after or during creation of the physical
interface's ifEntry row objects.
The bundle identified in the object mfrBundleIndex must exist at time
of bundle link creation.
2.5. Notifications
The linkUp and linkDown traps are defined in RFC 2223 [RFC2223].
2.5.1. Bundle
The following SNMP traps are defined for MFR bundles.
2.5.1.1. linkUp
This trap is sent when the ifOperStatus of a bundle transitions from
down to up. This occurs when a sufficient number of links
(determined by mfrBundleActivationClass and mfrBundleThreshold) are
in the operationally up state.
2.5.1.2. linkDown
This trap is sent when the ifOperStatus of a bundle transitions from
up to down. This occurs when a insufficient number of links
(determined by mfrBundleActivationClass and mfrBundleThreshold) are
in the operationally up state.
2.5.2. Bundle Link
The following SNMP traps are defined for MFR bundle links.
2.5.2.1. linkUp
This trap is sent when a mfrBundleLinkState object transitions to the
value mfrBundleLinkStateUp.
2.5.2.2. linkDown
This trap is sent when a mfrBundleLinkState object transitions from
the value mfrBundleLinkStateUp.
2.5.2.3. mfrMibTrapBundleLinkMismatch
This trap indicates that a bundle link mismatch has been detected.
The following objects are reported:
- mfrBundleNearEndName: configured name of near end bundle
- mfrBundleFarEndName: previously reported name of far
end bundle
- mfrBundleLinkNearEndName: configured name of near end bundle
- mfrBundleLinkFarEndName: reported name of far end bundle
- mfrBundleLinkFarEndBundleName: currently reported name of far
end bundle
Note that the configured items may have been configured
automatically. Note also that the mfrBundleLinkMismatch counter is
incremented when the trap is sent.
3. Object Definitions
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)
defined in the SMI. In particular, each object type is named by an
OBJECT IDENTIFIER, an administratively assigned name. 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 descriptor, to refer to the
object type.

6. Security Considerations
There are a number of management objects defined in this MIB that
have 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.
No managed objects in this MIB contain sensitive information.
SNMPv1 by itself is not a secure environment. 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.
It is recommended that the implementers consider the security
features as provided by the SNMPv3 framework. Specifically, the use
of the User-based Security Model RFC 2574 [RFC2574] and the View-
based Access Control Model RFC 2575 [RFC2575] is recommended.
It is then a customer/user responsibility to ensure that the SNMP
entity giving access to an instance of this MIB, 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.
