IEEE 802.5 MIB using SMIv2
Status of this Memo
This document specifies an Internet standards track protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the "Internet Official Protocol Standards" (STD 1) for the standardization state and status of this protocol. Distribution of this memo is unlimited.
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 used for managing subnetworks which use the IEEE 802.5 Token Ring technology described in 802.5 Token Ring Access Method and Physical Layer Specifications, IEEE Standard 802.5-1989 [7]. This memo is a replacement for RFC 1231.
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.
This memo defines three tables: the 802.5 Interface Table, which contains state and parameter information which is specific to 802.5 interfaces, the 802.5 Statistics Table, which contains 802.5 interface statistics, and the 802.5 Timer Table, which contains the values of 802.5-defined timers. A managed system will have one entry in the 802.5 Interface Table and one entry in the 802.5 Statistics Table for each of its 802.5 interfaces. The 802.5 Timer Table is obsolete, but its definition has been retained in this memo for backward compatibility.
This memo also defines OBJECT IDENTIFIERs, some to identify interface tests for use with the ifTestTable [6], and some to identify Token Ring interface Chip Sets.
All representations of MAC addresses in this MIB Module use the MacAddress textual convention [5] for which the address is in the "canonical" order defined by IEEE 802.1a, i.e., as if it were transmitted least significant bit first, even though 802.5 requires MAC addresses to be transmitted most significant bit first.
16-bit addresses, if needed, are represented by setting their upper 4 octets to all zeros, i.e., AAFF would be represented as 00000000AAFF.
When this MIB module is used in conjunction with the "old" (i.e., pre-RFC 1573) interfaces group, the relationship between an 802.5 interface and an interface in the context of the RFC 1213 is one- to-one. That is, the value of an ifIndex object instance for an 802.5 interface can be directly used to identify corresponding instances of the objects defined in this memo.
RFC 1573, the Interface MIB Evolution, requires that any MIB module which is an adjunct of the Interface MIB, clarify specific areas within the Interface MIB. These areas were intentionally left vague in RFC 1573 to avoid over constraining the MIB module, thereby precluding management of certain media-types.
Section 3.3 of RFC 1573 enumerates several areas which a media- specific MIB module must clarify. Each of these areas is addressed in a following subsection. The implementor is referred to RFC 1573 in order to understand the general intent of these areas.
For the typical usage of this IEEE 802.5 MIB module, there will be no sub-layers "above" or "below" the 802.5 interface. However, this MIB module does not preclude such layering.
The ifRcvAddressTable is defined to contains all MAC addresses, unicast, multicast (group) and broadcast, for which an interface will receive packets. For 802.5 interfaces, its use includes functional addresses. The format of the address, contained in ifRcvAddressAddress, is the same as for ifPhysAddress.
For functional addresses on a particular 802.5 interface, only one ifRcvAddressTable entry is required. That entry is the one for the address which has the functional address bit ANDed with the bit mask of all functional addresses for which the interface will accept frames.
For an 802.5 interface, ifPhysAddress contains the interface's IEEE MAC address, stored as an octet string of length 6, in IEEE 802.1a "canonical" order, i.e., the Group Bit is positioned as the low-order bit (0x01) of the first octet.

The progress and success of the open is given by the values of the objects dot5RingState and dot5RingOpenStatus. When this object is set to the value of reset(3), then the station should do a reset. On a reset, all MIB counters should retain their values, if possible. Other side affects are dependent on the hardware chip set. When this object is set to the value of close(4), the station should go into the stopped state by removing itself from the ring. Setting this object to a value of noop(1) has no effect. When read, this object always has a value of noop(1). The open(2) and close(4) values correspond to the up(1) and down(2) values of MIB-II's ifAdminStatus and ifOperStatus, i.e., the setting of ifAdminStatus and

This memo has the following differences from RFC 1231:
(1) This memo is formatted using the SNMPv2 SMI.
(2) The relationship of the "open" and "close" states of dot5Commands to the value of ifAdminStatus has been clarified. In particular, the setting of one affects the value of the other.
(3) The relationship dot5RingSpeed and ifSpeed has been clarified. In particular, ifSpeed indicates the current ring-speed; dot5RingSpeed indicates the ring-speed at the next insertion into the ring. If the interface doesn't support changing ring-speed, then dot5RingSpeed can only be set to its current value. When dot5RingSpeed has the value 'unknown(1)', the ring-speed is to be set to the ring's actual ring-speed.
(4) Write-access to dot5ActMonParticipate is not required, and a change to the value of dot5ActMonParticipate does not take effect until the next Active Monitor election.
(5) Write-access to dot5Functional is not required.
(6) A new object, dot5LastBeaconSent has been defined to contain the timestamp of the last beacon frame sent.
(7) The dot5TimerTable has been designated as obsolete.
(8) Text has been added describing the applicability of RFC 1573 [6] to 802.5 interfaces.
(9) Other minor editorial changes.
