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 defines objects for monitoring and controlling network Expires May 19, 1997 [Page 1] Internet Draft SNANAU HPR MIB November 1996 devices with HPR (High Performance Routing) capabilities. This memo identifies managed objects for the HPR protocol. This memo does not specify a standard for the Internet community. 3. The SNMP Network Management Framework The SNMP Network Management Framework consists of several components. For the purpose of this specification, the applicable components of the Framework are the SMI and related documents [1, 2, 3], which define the mechanisms used for describing and naming objects for the purpose of management. The Framework permits new objects to be defined for the purpose of experimentation and evaluation. 4. Overview This document identifies the proposed set of objects for monitoring the configuration and active characteristics of devices with HPR capabilities. HPR is an enhancement to the Advanced Peer-to-Peer Network (APPN) architecture that provides fast data routing and improved session reliability. APPN is one of the protocols that can use the HPR transport mechanism. See the SNANAU APPN MIB [4] for management of APPN and APPN use of the HPR transport. Automatic Network Routing (ANR) is a fast low-level routing technique. Each node assigns a unique (within that node) ANR label for each out- bound link as it is activated. The label size is defined by the ANR node, and nodes only need to know how to interpret their own labels. The ANR string is a group of ANR labels encoded in a header in front of the message being sent. At each hop the node strips off its own ANR label and forwards the message onto the link with that label. The last label in the string is the Network Connection Endpoint (NCE), which identifies the component within the destination node that is to receive the message. Rapid Transport Protocol (RTP) is an end-to-end full duplex transport connection (pipe). It provides for high-speed transport of data using ANR. RTP is connection-oriented, and delivers data in correct order reliably. Error recovery is done efficiently with selective retransmission of data. An RTP path can be switched without disrupting the sessions using it. An RTP path switch may be done automatically if a link in the path fails and another RTP path is available, or on demand Expires May 19, 1997 [Page 2] Internet Draft SNANAU HPR MIB November 1996 to restore the optimal path. RTP performs flow/congestion control with the Adaptive Rate-Based (ARB) algorithm. ARB is done only at the endpoints of the RTP pipe, so intermediate hops are not involved. ARB regulates the flow of data over an RTP connection by adaptively changing the sender's rate based on feedback on the receiver's rate. It is designed to prevent congestion rather than react to it. In this document, we describe HPR managed objects. The HPR terms and overall architecture are available from the networking.raleigh.ibm.com ftp site [5]. Highlights of the management functions supported by the HPR MIB module include the following: o Identifying network connection endpoints (NCEs). o Identifying how incoming packets are routed based on ANR labels. o Monitoring the RTP connections between nodes supporting the HPR Transport Tower. o Ability to trigger an RTP path switch o Historical information about RTP path switch attempts This MIB module does not support: o Configuration of HPR nodes. o Protocol-specific uses of HPR (such as APPN) o Traps. The APPN MIB contains a trap for Alert conditions that may affect HPR resources. 4.1. HPR MIB Structure The HPR MIB module contains the following groups of objects: Expires May 19, 1997 [Page 3] Internet Draft SNANAU HPR MIB November 1996 o hprGlobal - general HPR objects. o hprAnrRouting - objects related to the ANR routing table. o hprTransportUser - objects related to users of the HPR transport. o hprRtp - objects related to the HPR Transport Tower. These groups are described below in more detail. 4.1.1. hprGlobal group The hprGlobal group consists of general objects such as the APPN CP name of the HPR node and the level of support for operator-requested path switches. 4.1.2. hprAnrRouting group The hprAnrRouting group consists objects to monitor and control the counting of ANR packets received and the following table: 1) hprAnrRoutingTable This table correlates incoming ANR labels to the outbound transmission group (TG) or local NCE to which incoming packet will be forwarded. An entry defines the label type as identifying a local NCE or a TG, identifies the NCE or TG, and counts the number of packets received with the entry's ANR label. 4.1.3. hprTransportUser group The hprTransportUser group consists of the following table: 1) hprNceTable This table identifies network connection endpoints and their function types. The function type can be any combination of a control point (CP), logical unit (LU), boundary function, and route setup. Expires May 19, 1997 [Page 4] Internet Draft SNANAU HPR MIB November 1996 4.1.4. hprRtp group The hprRtp group consists of the following objects and tables: 1) hprRtpGlobe These objects contain information about the number of RTP connection setups, and control of RTP counters. 2) hprRtpTable This table contains one entry for each RTP connection. The information includes local and remote NCE IDs and TCIDs, timers, send rates, and statistics. A path switch can be triggered by the hprRptPathSwitchTrigger object if the agent node supports it; however, a new path cannot be specified. 3) hprRtpStatusTable This table contains statistics and historical information for RTP path switches attempts, including old and new ANR strings and Route Selection Control Vectors (RSCVs), why the path switch was initiated, and the result (successful or reason for failure).
