Internet Drafts are working documents of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), its Areas, and its Working Groups. Note that other groups may also distribute working documents as Internet Drafts. Internet Drafts are valid for a maximum of six months and may be updated, replaced, or obsoleted by other documents at any time. It is inappropriate to use Internet Drafts as reference material or to cite them other than as a "work in progress". Expires November, 1993 [Page 1] Internet Draft Chassis MIB May 28, 1993 1. Introduction This memo defines an experimental portion of the Management Information Base (MIB) for use with network management protocols in TCP/IP based internets. In particular it defines objects for managing a chassis containing multiple (logical) networking devices, such as repeaters, bridges, routers, terminal servers, etc. Please send all comments to the chassis MIB working group at chassismib@cs.utk.edu. 2. The Network Management Framework The Internet-standard Network Management Framework consists of three components. They are: o RFC 1155 which defines the SMI, the mechanisms used for describing and naming objects for the purpose of management. RFC 1212 defines a more concise description mechanism, which is wholly consistent with the SMI. o RFC 1213 defines MIB-II, the core set of managed objects for the Internet suite of protocols. o RFC 1157 which defines the SNMP, the protocol used for network access to managed objects. The Framework permits new objects to be defined for the purpose of experimentation and evaluation. 2.1. 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 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. Expires November, 1993 [Page 2] Internet Draft Chassis MIB May 28, 1993 3. Overview This memo defines objects for the management of a chassis. A chassis can be thought of as a hierarchical relationship of one or more "physical locations", each physical location containing one or more physical modules, and where a physical module, or combinations of physical modules, might perform one or more networking device functions. The relationship between physical location and physical module can be many to many. Also the relationship between physical module and function can be many-to-many. Thus, this memo uses the term 'entity' to refer to a logical networking device which may span parts of one or more modules. Often times entities utilize building blocks or connections. These connections (resources) are used to define and interconnect entities. This MIB contains the following information groups: chassis information group, chassis physical group, the Entity Definition group, the resource group, the Powersupply Group, and the environment group. 3.1. What is a Chassis This MIB applies to a chassis. In its normal sense, a "chassis" is a collection of traditionally discrete network devices packaged in a single cabinet and power system. Indeed, the descriptions of the objects are phrased assuming such a "physical" chassis. However, these descriptions are not intended to exclude the application of this MIB to a "logical chassis". Examples of such logical chassis might be: - a building containing many network devices, where each room in the building might be considered as a physical location, - a geographical area containing many network devices, where each building in the area might be considered as a physical location. Note also that the MIB implementations for multiple (physical or logical) chassis might be arranged hierachically, i.e., a module/entity represented in one agent's chassis MIB might in Expires November, 1993 [Page 3] Internet Draft Chassis MIB May 28, 1993 fact represent a whole (lower-level) chassis. For example, in a equipment cabinet having multiple shelves with each shelf having multiple plug-in cards, the whole cabinet could be represented by an overall chassis MIB in which each "physical location" represents a shelf, and there might also be individualchassis MIBs for each shelf in which each location represents where the plug-in cards live.

Issues The following is a list of currently on resolved issues that need to be addressed: - Usage of physical location type and location instance to identify modules. - How to best handle power supplies. One view is to think of them in terms of resources the other is to just consider them as instances of physcial modules. - Does this model answer all of our needs. For example does the relationship between resource and entities need to be many to many? - Do we need to provide for multiple MIB views per entity. This could be accomplished by another table indexed by MIB view and entity ID. 7. References [1] M.T. Rose and K.
