"Guidelines for Considering Operations and Management of New Protocols and Protocol Extensions", David Harrington, 23-Jun-09. ( bytes)

New protocols or protocol extensions are best designed with due consideration of functionality needed to operate and manage the protocols. Retrofitting operations and management is sub-optimal. The purpose of this document is to provide guidance to authors and reviewers of documents defining new protocols or protocol extensions, about covering aspects of operations and management that should be considered.

"Expressing SNMP SMI Datatypes in XML Schema Definition Language", Bob Natale, 27-Mar-09. ( bytes)

This memo defines the IETF standard expression of Structure of Management Information (SMI) base datatypes in Extensible Markup Language (XML) Schema Definition (XSD) language. The primary objective of this memo is to enable the production of XML documents that are as faithful to the SMI as possible, using XSD as the validation mechanism.

"Alarms in SYSLOG", Sharon Chisholm, Rainer Gerhards, 26-May-09. ( bytes)

This document describes how to send alarm information in syslog. It includes the mapping of ITU perceived severities onto syslog message fields and a number of alarm-specific SD-PARAM definitions from X.733 and the IETF Alarm MIB.

"Definitions of Managed Objects for Mapping SYSLOG Messages to Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Notifications", Juergen Schoenwaelder, Alex Clemm, Anirban Karmakar, 6-Aug-09. ( bytes)

This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB) for use with network management protocols in the Internet community. In particular, it defines a mapping of SYSLOG messages to Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) notifications.

"Mapping Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Notifications to SYSLOG Messages", Vladislav Marinov, Juergen Schoenwaelder, 6-Aug-09. ( bytes)

This memo defines a mapping from Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) notifications to SYSLOG messages.

"Survey of IETF Network Management Standards", David Harrington, 2-Mar-09. ( bytes)

This document provides a survey of existing IETF standards-track network management protocols and data models. The purpose of this document is to help protocol designers, implementers, and users to select appropriate standard management protocols and data models to address relevant management needs.
