Definitions of Managed Objects for the Fourth Version of the
Border Gateway Protocol (BGP-4) using SMIv2
Status of this Memo
-
This document specifies an Internet standards track protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the "Internet Official Protocol Standards" (STD 1) for the standardization state and status of this protocol. Distribution of this memo is unlimited.
1. Introduction
-
This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB) for use with network management protocols in the Internet community. In particular, it describes managed objects used for managing the Border Gateway Protocol Version 4 or lower [1, 2].
2. The SNMPv2 Network Management Framework
-
The SNMPv2 Network Management Framework consists of four major components. They are:
-
RFC 1442 which defines the SMI, the mechanisms used for describing and naming objects for the purpose of management.
STD 17, RFC 1213 defines MIB-II, the core set of managed objects forthe Internet suite of protocols.
RFC 1445 which defines the administrative and other architectural aspects of the framework.
RFC 1448 which defines the protocol used for network access to managed objects.
The Framework permits new objects to be defined for the purpose of experimentation and evaluation.
-
3. 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 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.
4. Overview
-
These objects are used to control and manage a BGP-4 implementation.
Apart from a few system-wide scalar objects, this MIB is broken into three tables: the BGP Peer Table, the BGP Received Path Attribute Table, and the BGP-4 Received Path Attribute Table. The BGP Peer Table contains information about state and current activity of connections with the BGP peers. The Received Path Attribute Table contains path attributes received from all peers running BGP version 3 or less. The BGP-4 Received Path Attribute Table contains path attributes received from all BGP-4 peers. The actual attributes used in determining a route are a subset of the received attribute tables after local routing policy has been applied.
