                   Definitions of Managed Objects for
       the Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol Version 3 (VRRPv3)

Abstract

   This specification defines a portion of the Management Information
   Base (MIB) for use with network management based on the Simple
   Network Management Protocol (SNMP).  In particular, it defines
   objects for configuring, monitoring, and controlling routers that
   employ the Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol Version 3 (VRRPv3) for
   both IPv4 and IPv6 as defined in RFC 5798.  This memo obsoletes RFC
   2787.

1.  The Internet-Standard Management Framework

   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].
