2 Introduction
This document describes a model for managing pseudo wire services
for transmission over different flavors of MPLS tunnels. The
general PW MIB [PW-MIB] defines the parameters global to the VC
regardless of underlying PSN and emulated service. Indicating PSN
type of MPLS in PW-MIB references this module.
This document describes the MIB objects that define pseudo wire
association to the MPLS PSN, in a way that is not specific to the
carried service.
Together, [TEMIB and LSRMIB], describe the modeling of an MPLS
Tunnel, and a Tunnel's underlying cross-connects. The defined MIB
support MPLS-TE PSN, Non TE MPLS PSN (an outer tunnel created by
LDP or manually), and MPLS VC only (no outer tunnel).
Some flavors of MPLS, such as carrying PW in MPLS in IP and MPLS in
GRE are not defined here, waiting to the WG documents that will
describe the exact MPLS functionality. It still for further study
whether this functionality will be treated in this MIB modules or
in another one specific to IP PSN.
VC level protection is for further study. Protection is currently
assumed at the outer tunnel level only, on bulk of VCs. Future
revision of this document will control the behavior of such
protection in more details.

Conventions used in this document
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
[BCP14].
3 Terminology
This document uses terminology from the document describing the PW
framework [FRMWK], from [ENCAP] and [TRANS].
The terms "Outbound" and "Inbound" in this MIB module are based on
the common practice in the MPLS standards, i.e. "outbound" are
toward the PSN. However, where these terms are used in an object
name, the object description clarifies the exact packet direction
to prevent confusion with these terms in other documents.
"PSN Tunnel" is a general term indicating a virtual connection
between the two PW edge devices. Each tunnel may potentially carry
multiple VCs inside. In the scope of this document, it is MPLS
tunnel.
This document uses terminology from the document describing the
MPLS architecture [MPLSArch] for MPLS PSN. A Label Switched Path
(LSP) is modeled as described in [LSRMIB and TEMIB] via a series of
cross-connects through 1 or more Label switch routers (LSR).
In MPLS PSN, a PW connection typically uses a VC (Virtual
Connection) Label within a Tunnel Label [TRANS]. Multiple PW VCs
each with a unique VC Label can share the same Tunnel. For PW
transport over MPLS, the Tunnel Label is known as the "outer"
Label, while the VC Label is known as the "inner" Label. An
exception to this is with adjacent LSRs or the use of PHP. In this
case, there is an option for PW VCs to connect directly without an
outer Label.
4 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
Zelig et al Expires December 2002 [page 3]
Pseudo Wire (PW) Over MPLS June 2002
Management Information Base
58, RFC 2578 [RFC2578], STD 58, RFC 2579 [RFC2579] and STD 58, 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.
4.1 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, an OBJECT IDENTIFIER, an
administratively assigned name, names each object type. 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 also refer to
the object type.

5 Feature Checklist
The PW MPLS MIB (PW-MPLS-MIB) is designed to satisfy the following
requirements and constraints:
- The MIB supports both manually configured and signaled VCs.
- The MIB supports point-to-point PW connections.
- The MIB enables the use of any emulated service.
- The MIB supports MPLS-TE outer tunnel, Non TE MPLS outer tunnel
(an outer tunnel signaled by LDP or set-up manually), and no
outer tunnel (where the VC label is the only label in the
incoming MPLS stack).
- The MIB enables both strict and loose incoming VC lookup. In
strict mode, only VC carried inside known in advance tunnels or
interfaces are accepted. The methods of the association
knowledge are out of the scope of this document.
6 MIB usage
The MIB structure for defining a PW service is composed from three
types of modules.
The first type is the PW-MIB module [PW-MIB], which configures
general parameters of the VC that are common to all types of
emulated services and PSNs.
The second type of module is per PSN module. There is a different
module for each type of PSN. This document defines the MIB module
for MPLS (PW-MPLS-MIB).
The third type of module is service-specific module, which is
emulated signal type dependent. These modules are defined in other
documents; see for example [CEPMIB].
[PWTC] defines some of the object types used in these modules.
6.1 PW-MPLS-MIB usage
- The VC table (pwVcTable) in [PW-MIB] is used for all VC types
(ATM, FR, Ethernet, SONET, etc.). This table contains high level
generic parameters related to the VC creation. A row is created by
the operator for each PW service.
- If the PSN type in pwVcTable is MPLS, the agent creates a row in
the MPLS specific parameters table (pwMplsVcTable) in PW-MPLS-MIB,
Zelig et al Expires December 2002 [page 5]
Pseudo Wire (PW) Over MPLS June 2002
Management Information Base
which contain MPLS specific parameters such as EXP bits handling
and outer tunnel selection.
- A row is created by the agent in the MPLS outbound tunnels table
(pwVcMplsOutboundTable), which associates the VC to one or more
(in a case of backup tunnels) MPLS tunnels. This table simply
associates the VC with the entries at the relevant MPLS MIBs.
Additional rows in this table may be created manually, if more
than one outer tunnel is required (for example for protection
purposes).
- The MPLS inbound tunnel table (pwVcMplsInboundTable) associates
the VC to the incoming tunnel. This (optional) table can be used
for restricting the packet reception for a specific PW from pre-
defined tunnels, bringing better security and better miss-
configuration error immunity.
- The MPLS tunnels mapping tabled (pwMplsTeMappingTable and
pwMplsNonTeMappingTable) associate the tunnel and the VC label to
the VC index. This table is used for easy lookup process when
searching VC information.
The relation to the MPLS network is by configuration of the edge
LSR only - that is to say, the LSR providing the PW function. Since
Tunnels are uni-directional, a pair of tunnels must exist (one for
inbound, one for outbound). The following graphic depicts a VC that
originates and terminates at LSR-M. It uses LSPs A and B formed by
Tunnels Ax and Bx continuing through LSR-N to LSR-P. The
concatenations of Tunnels create the LSPs. Note: 'X' denotes a
Tunnel's cross-connect.

LSP-B
The PW-MPLS-MIB supports three options for MPLS network:
- In the MPLS-TE case, Tunnel A1 and B1 are created via the MPLS-TE
MIB [TEMIB]. The tunnels are associated to the VC by the (4)
indexes that uniquely identify the Tunnel at the TE-MIB.
- In the Non TE case, Tunnel A1 and B1 are either manually
configured or set up with LDP. The tunnels are associated to the VC
by the XC index in the MPLS-LSR-MIB [LSRMIB].
- In the VC only case, there is no outer Tunnel on top of the VC
label. This case is useful in case of adjacent PE (see [TRANS]) or
when LSR-N acts as PHP for the outer tunnel label. In this case,
Association is done directly to the physical interfaces in the PW-
MPLS-MIB tables.
A combination of MPLS-TE outer tunnel(s) and LDP outer tunnel for
the same VC is allowed by creating the rows with the same VcIndex
with different MPLS tunnel indexes types.
6.2 Example of MIB usage
In this section we provide an example of using the MIB objects for
setting up a VC over MPLS. While this example is not meant to
illustrate every permutation of the MIB, it is intended as an aid
to understanding some of the key concepts. It is meant to be read
after going through the MIB itself.

In this example a PW service for CEP is configured over an MPLS-TE
tunnel. It uses LDP as in [TRANS] for service set-up.
In PW-MIB:
In pwVcTable:
{
pwVcIndex 5,
pwVcType cep,
pwVcOwner maintenanceProtocol,
pwVcPsnType mpls,
pwVcSetUpPriority 0,
pwVcHoldingPriority 0,
pwVcInboundMode loose,
pwVcPeerAddrType ipv4(2),
pwVcPeerAddr 1.4.3.2, -- In this case equal to the
-- peer tunnel IP address
pwVcID 10,
pwVcLocalGroupID 12,
pwVcControlWord false, -- Control word not to be sent
pwVcLocalIfMtu 0, -- Do not send ifMtu parameter
pwVcLocalIfString false, -- Do not signal if string
pwVcRemoteGroupID 0xFFFF, -- Will be received by
-- maintenance protocol
pwVcRemoteControlWord notKnownYet,
pwVcRemoteIfMtu 0,
pwVcRemoteIfString "",
pwVcOutboundVcLabel 0xFFFF, -- Will be received by
-- maintenance protocol
pwVcInboundVcLabel 0xFFFF, -- Will be set by signaling
pwVcName "Example of CEP VC",
pwVcDescr "",
..
pwVcAdminStatus up,

Pseudo Wire (PW) Over MPLS June 2002
Management Information Base
The operator now create a row in pwVcMplsTable based on the
VcIndex, that is configured with MPLS specific values:
In pwVcMplsTable:
{
pwVcMplsMplsType mplsTe,
pwVcMplsExpBitsMode outerTunnel,
pwVcMplsExpBits 0,
pwVcMplsTtl 2,
pwVcMplsLocalLdpID 1.2.3.4.0.0 -- Global label space
pwVcMplsLocalLdpEntityID 0,
pwVcMplsPeerLdpID 0, -- Not known yet
...
}
The operator now associates the VC with an outgoing TE tunnel:
In pwVcMplsOutboundTable:
{
pwVcMplsOutboundIndex 0, -- The first row
--for this VCIndex.
pwVcMplsOutBoundLsrXcIndex 0, -- MPLS-TE
pwVcMplsOutboundTunnelIndex 500,
pwVcMplsOutboundTunnelInstance 0,
pwVcMplsOutboundTunnelLclLSR 1.2.3.4, -- Always
-- the LSR ID of the current node.
pwVcMplsOutboundTunnelPeerLSR 1.4.3.2
pwVcMplsOutboundIfIndex 0, -- MPLS-TE
..
}
pwVcMplsInboundTable is not used because loose LDP set-up is used.
pwVcMplsTeMappingTable entry will be created by the agent once the
outbound table is configured and will enable easy lookup for the
VcIndex from knowledge of the outer tunnel indexes.

8 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.
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.
The use of strict inbound VC lookup the security problems related
to a global VC space in a node is greatly reduced, by limiting the
accepted packets to a small set of controlled tunnels.
