Abstract 
    
   This document defines an experimental portion of the Management 
   Information Base (MIB) for use with network management protocols in 
   Internet Protocol Version 6 internets.  Specifically, this document 
   is the MIB module that defines managed objects for implementations of 
   the Multicast Listener Discovery Protocol [RFC2710]. 
    
    
Terminology 
    
   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 [RFC 2119]. 
    
    
1. The SNMP Management Framework

Internet Draft               MIB for MLD                     July 2000 
    
   The SNMP Management Framework presently consists of five major 
   components: 
    
   An overall architecture, described in RFC 2571 [RFC2571]. 
    
   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]. 
    
   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]. 
    
   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]. 
    
   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 MIB module contains two tables:

      1.The MLD Interface Table, which contains one row for each 
        interface on which MLD is enabled. 
    
      2.The MLD Cache Table which contains one row for each IPv6 
        Multicast group for which there are members on a particular 
        interface. 
    
   Both tables are intended to be implemented by hosts and routers.  
   Some objects in each table apply to routers only.

Security Considerations 
    
   This MIB contains readable objects whose values provide information 
   related to multicast sessions.  Some of these objects could contain 
   sensitive information.  In particular, the mldCacheSelf and 
   mldCacheLastReporter could be used to identify machines which are 
   listening to a given group address.  There are also a number of 
   objects that have a MAX-ACCESS clause of read-write and/or read-
   create, which allow an administrator to configure MLD in the router. 
    
   While unauthorized access to the readable objects is relatively 
   innocuous, unauthorized access to the write-able objects could cause 
   a denial of service.  Hence, the support of SET operations in a non-
   secure environment without proper protection can have a negative 
   effect on network operations. 
    
   SNMPv1 by itself is such an insecure environment.  Even if the 
   network itself is secure (for example by using IPSec), even then, 
   there is no control as to who on the network is allowed to access and 
   SET (change/create/delete) the objects in this MIB.

Internet Draft               MIB for MLD                     July 2000 
    
   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 this MIB, is properly configured to give 
   access to those objects only to those principals (users) that have 
   legitimate rights to access them.
