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 objects for configuring parameters of the Neighborhood Discovery Protocol (NHDP) [RFC6130] process on a router. The MIB module defined in this document, denoted NHDP-MIB, also reports state, performance information, and notifications about NHDP. This additional state and performance information is useful to troubleshoot problems and performance issues during neighbor discovery.
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].
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119].
[RFC6130] allows a router to discover and track topological information of routers up to two hops away by virtue of exchanging HELLO messages. This information is useful for routers running various routing and multicast flooding protocols developed within the IETF MANET Working Group.
The following definitions apply throughout this document:
o Notification Objects - triggers and associated notification messages allowing for asynchronous tracking of pre-defined events on the managed router.
o Configuration Objects - switches, tables, and objects that are initialized to default settings or set through the management interface defined by this MIB module.
o State Objects - automatically generated values that define the current operating state of the NHDP instance in the router.
o Performance Objects - automatically generated values that help an administrator or automated tool to assess the performance of the NHDP instance on the router and the overall discovery performance within the Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET).
This section presents the structure of the NHDP-MIB module. The MIB module is arranged into the following structure:
o nhdpNotifications - objects defining NHDP-MIB notifications.
o nhdpObjects - defining objects within this MIB module. The objects are arranged into the following groups:
* Configuration Group - defining objects related to the configuration of the NHDP instance on the router.
* State Group - defining objects that reflect the current state of the NHDP instance running on the router.
* Performance Group - defining objects that are useful to a management station when characterizing the performance of NHDP on the router and in the MANET.
o nhdpConformance - defining the minimal and maximal conformance requirements for implementations of this MIB module.
Notifications can be emitted by a router running an instance of this specification as a reaction to a specific event. This allows a network manager to efficiently determine the source of problems or significant changes of configuration or topology, instead of polling a possibly large number of routers.
When an exception event occurs, the application notifies the local agent, which sends a notification to the appropriate SNMP management stations. The message includes the notification type and may include a list of notification-specific variables. Section 7 contains the notification definitions, which includes the variable lists. At least one IP address of the router that originates the notification is included in the variable list so that the network manager may determine the source of the notification.
The majority of critical events occur when NHDP is first enabled on a router, at which time the symmetric neighbors and two-hop neighbors of the router are discovered. During this initial period, a potential flood of notifications is unnecessary since the events are expected. To avoid unnecessary notifications, a router SHOULD NOT originate expected notifications until a certain time interval has elapsed, which is to be predefined by the network manager. It is RECOMMENDED that this time interval is at least 3 x nhdpHelloInterval, so that symmetric neighbors are discovered. The suppression window for notifications is started when the nhdpIfStatus transitions from its default value of 'false(2)' to 'true(1)'.
The mechanism for throttling the notifications is the same as in [RFC4750] (i.e., the number of transmitted notifications per time is bounded).
Herberg, et al. Standards Track [Page 5]
RFC 6779 The NHDP-MIB October 2012
Appropriate values for the window time and upper bound are to be selected by the network manager and depend on the deployment of the MANET. If NHDP is deployed on a lossy, wireless medium, sending too many notifications in a short time interval may lead to collisions and dropped packets. In particular, in dense deployments of routers running NHDP (i.e., where each router has many neighbors), a change of the local topology may trigger many notifications at the same time. [RFC4750] recommends "7 traps with a window time of 10 seconds" as the upper bound. As NHDP is expected to be deployed in more lossy channels than OSPF, it is RECOMMENDED to choose a lower threshold for the number of notifications per time than that. Specifically, it is RECOMMENDED that the threshold value for the objects reflecting the change be set to a value of '10' and the DEFAULT values for these objects within the Notifications Group be set to this value. Further, a time window for the change objects is defined within this MIB module. It is RECOMMENDED that if the number of occurrences exceeds the change threshold within the previous change window, then the notification is to be sent. Furthermore, it is RECOMMENDED that the value for this window be set to at least 5 times the nhdpHelloInterval.
The following objects are used to define the thresholds and time windows for specific notifications defined in the NHDP-MIB module: nhdpNbrStateChangeThreshold, nhdpNbrStateChangeWindow, nhdp2HopNbrStateChangeThreshold, and nhdp2HopNbrStateChangeWindow.
The router running NHDP is configured with a set of controls. The authoritative list of configuration controls within the NHDP-MIB module are found within the MIB module itself. Generally, an attempt was made in developing the NHDP-MIB module to support all configuration objects defined in [RFC6130]. For all of the configuration parameters, the same constraints and default values of these parameters as defined in [RFC6130] are followed. Refer to [RFC5148] for guidance on setting jitter-related parameters, e.g., nhdpMaxJitter.
The State Group reports current state information of a router running NHDP. The NHDP-MIB State Group tables were designed to contain the complete set of state information defined within the information bases specified in Sections 6, 7, and 8 of [RFC6130].
Two constructs, i.e., TEXTUAL-CONVENTIONs, are defined to support the tables in the State Group. NHDP stores and indexes information through sets of (dynamically defined) addresses, i.e., address sets. Within SMIv2, it is not possible to index tables with variably defined address sets. Hence, these TEXTUAL-CONVENTIONs are defined to provide a local mapping between NHDP-managed address sets and SMIv2 table indexing. These constructs are the NeighborIfIndex and NeighborRouterIndex. These are locally (to the router) defined, unique identifiers of virtual neighbors and neighbor interfaces. Due to the nature of NHDP, the local router may have identified distinct address sets but is not able to associate these as a single interface. Hence, two or more NeighborIfIndexes pointing to multiple distinct address sets may, in fact, be related to a common neighbor interface. This ambiguity may also hold with respect to the assignment of the NeighborRouterIndex. The local MIB agent is responsible for managing, aggregating, and retiring the defined indexes and for updating MIB tables using these indexes as the local router learns more about its neighbors' topologies. These constructs are used to define indexes to the appropriate State Group tables and to correlate table entries to address sets, virtual neighbor interfaces, and virtual neighbors within the MANET.
The Performance Group reports values relevant to system performance. Unstable neighbors or 2-hop neighbors and frequent changes of sets can have a negative influence on the performance of NHDP. This MIB module defines several objects that can be polled in order to, e.g., calculate histories or monitor frequencies of changes. This may help the network administrator to determine unusual topology changes or other changes that affect stability and reliability of the MANET. One such framework is specified in [REPORT-MIB].
The NHDP-MIB module contains a number of tables that record data related to:
o the local router,
o a local MANET interface on the router,
Herberg, et al. Standards Track [Page 7]
RFC 6779 The NHDP-MIB October 2012
o other routers that are 1 hop removed from the local router,
o interfaces on other routers that are 1 hop removed from the local router, and
o other routers that are 2 hops removed from the local router.
The NHDP-MIB module's tables are indexed via the following constructs:
o nhdpIfIndex - the IfIndex of the local router on which NHDP is configured.
o nhdpDiscIfIndex - a locally managed index representing a known interface on a neighboring router.
o nhdpDiscRouterIndex - a locally managed index representing an ID of a known neighboring router.
These tables and their indexing are:
o nhdpInterfaceTable - describes the configuration of the interfaces of this router. This table has INDEX { nhdpIfIndex }.
o nhdpLibLocalIfSetTable - records all network addresses that are defined as local interface network addresses on this router. This table has INDEX { nhdpLibLocalIfSetIndex }.
o nhdpLibRemovedIfAddrSetTable - records network addresses that were recently used as local interface network addresses on this router but have been removed. This table has INDEX { nhdpLibRemovedIfAddrSetIndex }.
o nhdpInterfaceStateTable - records state information related to specific interfaces of this router. This table has INDEX { nhdpIfIndex }.
o nhdpDiscIfSetTable - includes the nhdpDiscRouterIndex of the discovered router, the nhdpDiscIfIndex of the discovered interface, and the current set of addresses associated with this neighbor interface. This table has INDEX { nhdpDiscIfSetIndex }.
o nhdpIibLinkSetTable - for each local interface, records all links belonging to other routers that are, or recently were, 1-hop neighbors to this router. This table has INDEX { nhdpIfIndex, nhdpDiscIfIndex }.
Herberg, et al. Standards Track [Page 8]
RFC 6779 The NHDP-MIB October 2012
o nhdpIib2HopSetTable - for each local interface, records network addresses (one at a time) of symmetric 2-hop neighbors and the symmetric links to symmetric 1-hop neighbors of this router through which these symmetric 2-hop neighbors can be reached. This table has INDEX { nhdpIfIndex, nhdpDiscIfIndex, nhdpIib2HopSetIpAddressType, nhdpIib2HopSetIpAddress }.
o nhdpNibNeighborSetTable - records all network addresses of each 1-hop neighbor to this router. This table has INDEX { nhdpDiscRouterIndex }.
o nhdpNibLostNeighborSetTable - records network addresses of other routers that were recently symmetric 1-hop neighbors to this router but are now advertised as lost. This table has INDEX { nhdpDiscRouterIndex }.
o nhdpInterfacePerfTable - records performance objects that are measured for each local NHDP interface on this router. This table has INDEX { nhdpIfIndex }.
o nhdpDiscIfSetPerfTable - records performance objects that are measured for each discovered interface of a neighbor of this router. This table has INDEX { nhdpDiscIfIndex }.
o nhdpDiscNeighborSetPerfTable - records performance objects that are measured for discovered neighbors of this router. This table has INDEX { nhdpDiscRouterIndex }.
o nhdpIib2HopSetPerfTable - records performance objects that are measured for discovered 2-hop neighbors of this router. This table has INDEX { nhdpDiscRouterIndex }.
This section specifies the relationship of the MIB module contained in this document to other standards, particularly to standards containing other MIB modules. MIB modules and specific definitions imported from MIB modules that SHOULD be implemented in conjunction with the MIB module contained within this document are identified in this section.
The System group in the SNMPv2-MIB module [RFC3418] is defined as being mandatory for all systems, and the objects apply to the entity as a whole. The System group provides identification of the management entity and certain other system-wide data. The NHDP-MIB module does not duplicate those objects.
Herberg, et al. Standards Track [Page 9]
RFC 6779 The NHDP-MIB October 2012
6.2. Relationship to Routing Protocol MIB Modules Relying on the NHDP-MIB Module
[RFC6130] allows routing protocols to rely on the neighborhood information that is discovered by means of HELLO message exchange. In order to allow for troubleshooting, fault isolation, and management of such routing protocols through a routing protocol MIB module, it may be desired to align the State Group tables of the NHDP-MIB module and the routing protocol MIB module. This is accomplished through the definition of two TEXTUAL-CONVENTIONs in the NHDP-MIB module: the NeighborIfIndex and the NeighborRouterIndex. These object types are used to develop indexes into common NHDP-MIB module and routing protocol State Group tables. These objects are locally significant but should be locally common to the NHDP-MIB module and the routing protocol MIB module implemented on a common networked router. This will allow for improved cross-referencing of information across the two MIB modules.
The following NHDP-MIB module IMPORTS objects from SNMPv2-SMI [RFC2578], SNMPv2-TC [RFC2579], SNMPv2-CONF [RFC2580], IF-MIB [RFC2863], INET-ADDRESS-MIB [RFC4001], and FLOAT-TC-MIB [RFC6340].
This section contains the MIB module defined by the specification.

NeighborIfIndex ::= TEXTUAL-CONVENTION DISPLAY-HINT "d" STATUS current DESCRIPTION "An arbitrary, locally unique identifier associated with a virtual interface of a discovered NHDP neighbor. Due to the nature of NHDP, the local router may not know if two distinct addresses belong to the same interface of a neighbor or to two different interfaces. As the local router gains more knowledge of its neighbors, its local view may change, and this table will be updated to reflect the local router's current understanding, associating address sets to neighbor interfaces. The local router identifies a virtual neighbor interface through the receipt of address lists advertised through an NHDP HELLO message.
All objects of type NeighborIfIndex are assigned by the agent out of a common number space.
Herberg, et al. Standards Track [Page 13]
RFC 6779 The NHDP-MIB October 2012
The value for each discovered virtual neighbor interface may not remain constant from one re-initialization of the entity's network management agent to the next re-initialization. If the local router gains information associating two virtual interfaces on a neighbor as a common interface, then the agent MUST aggregate the two address sets to a single index chosen from the set of aggregated indexes, and it MUST update all tables in this MIB module that are indexed by indexes of type NeighborIfIndex. It MAY then reuse freed index values following the next agent restart.
The specific value is meaningful only within a given SNMP entity." SYNTAX Unsigned32 (1..2147483647)
NeighborRouterIndex ::= TEXTUAL-CONVENTION DISPLAY-HINT "d" STATUS current DESCRIPTION "An arbitrary, locally unique identifier associated with a virtual discovered neighbor (one or two hop). Due to the nature of NHDP, the local router may identify multiple virtual neighbors that, in fact, are one and the same. Neighbors that are two hops away with more than one advertised address will exhibit this behavior. As the local router's knowledge of its neighbors' topology increases, the local router will be able to associate multiple virtual neighbor indexes into a single virtual neighbor index chosen from the set of aggregated indexes; it MUST update all tables in this MIB module indexed by these indexes, and it MAY reuse the freed indexes following the next agent re-initialization.
All objects of type NeighborRouterIndex are assigned by the agent out of a common number space.
The NeighborRouterIndex defines a discovered NHDP peer virtual neighbor of the local router. The value for each discovered virtual neighbor index MUST remain constant at least from one re-initialization of the entity's network management agent to the next re-initialization, except if an application is deleted and re-created.

This MIB module defines objects for the configuration, monitoring, and notification of the Neighborhood Discovery Protocol [RFC6130]. NHDP allows routers to acquire topological information up to two hops away by virtue of exchanging HELLO messages. The information acquired by NHDP may be used by routing protocols. The neighborhood information, exchanged between routers using NHDP, serves these routing protocols as a baseline for calculating paths to all destinations in the MANET, relay set selection for network-wide transmissions, etc.
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:
o nhdpIfStatus - This writable object turns on or off the NHDP process for the specified interface. If disabled, higher-level protocol functions, e.g., routing, would fail, causing network- wide disruptions.
o nhdpHelloInterval, nhdpHelloMinInterval, and nhdpRefreshInterval - These writable objects control the rate at which HELLO messages are sent on an interface. If set at too high a rate, this could represent a form of denial-of-service (DoS) attack by overloading interface resources.
o nhdpHystAcceptQuality, nhdpHystRejectQuality, nhdpInitialQuality, and nhdpInitialPending - These writable objects affect the perceived quality of the NHDP links and hence the overall stability of the network. If improperly set, these settings could result in network-wide disruptions.
o nhdpInterfaceTable - This table contains writable objects that affect the overall performance and stability of the NHDP process. Failure of the NHDP process would result in network-wide failure. Particularly sensitive objects from this table are discussed in the previous list items. This is the only table in the NHDP-MIB module with writable objects.
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
Herberg, et al. Standards Track [Page 62]
RFC 6779 The NHDP-MIB October 2012
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:
o nhdpDiscIfSetTable - The object contains information on discovered neighbors, specifically their IP address in the nhdpDiscIfSetIpAddr object. This information provides an adversary broad information on the members of the MANET, located within this single table. This information can be used to expedite attacks on the other members of the MANET without having to go through a laborious discovery process on their own. This object is the index into the table and has a MAX-ACCESS of 'not- accessible'. However, this information can be exposed using SNMP operations.
MANET technology is often deployed to support communications of emergency services or military tactical applications. In these applications, it is imperative to maintain the proper operation of the communications network and to protect sensitive information related to its operation. Therefore, it is RECOMMENDED to provide support for the Transport Security Model (TSM) [RFC5591] in combination with TLS/DTLS [RFC6353].
SNMP versions prior to SNMPv3 did not include adequate security. Even if the network itself is secure (for example by using IPsec), 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.
Implementations MUST provide the security features described by the SNMPv3 framework (see [RFC3410]), including full support for authentication and privacy via the User-based Security Model (USM) [RFC3414] with the AES cipher algorithm [RFC3826]. Implementations MAY also provide support for the Transport Security Model (TSM) [RFC5591] in combination with a secure transport such as SSH [RFC5592] or TLS/DTLS [RFC6353].
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.
This document describes objects for configuring parameters of the Neighborhood Discovery Protocol [RFC6130] process on a router. This MIB module, denoted NHDP-MIB, also reports state, performance information, and notifications. This section provides some examples of how this MIB module can be used in MANET network deployments. A fuller discussion of MANET network management use cases and challenges will be provided elsewhere.
NHDP is designed to allow routers to automatically discover and track routers one hop remote (denoted "neighbors") and routers two hops remote (denoted "two-hop neighbors"). This information is used by other MANET protocols in operation on the router to perform routing, multicast forwarding, and other functions with ad hoc and mobile networks. In the following, three example scenarios are listed where this MIB module is useful:
o For a Parking Lot Initial Configuration Situation - It is common for the vehicles comprising the MANET being forward deployed at a remote location, e.g., the site of a natural disaster, to be off- loaded in a parking lot where an initial configuration of the networking devices is performed. The configuration is loaded into the devices from a fixed location Network Operation Center (NOC) at the parking lot, and the vehicles are stationary at the parking lot while the configuration changes are made. Standards-based methods for configuration management from the co-located NOC are necessary for this deployment option.
o For Mobile Vehicles with Low-Bandwidth Satellite Link to a Fixed NOC - Here, the vehicles carrying the MANET routers carry multiple wireless interfaces, one of which is a relatively low-bandwidth, on-the-move satellite connection that interconnects a fix NOC to the nodes of the MANET. Standards-based methods for monitoring and fault management from the fixed NOC are necessary for this deployment option.
o For Fixed NOC and Mobile Local Manager in Larger Vehicles - for larger vehicles, a hierarchical network management arrangement is useful. Centralized network management is performed from a fixed NOC while local management is performed locally from within the vehicles. Standards-based methods for configuration, monitoring, and fault management are necessary for this deployment option.
