Abstract
This document 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 managing IEEE 802.3
Medium Attachment Units (MAUs). This document obsoletes RFC 3636.
It amends that specification by moving MAU type OBJECT-IDENTITY
definitions and relevant textual conventions into a separate Internet
Assigned Number Authority (IANA) maintained MIB module. In addition,
management information is added to enable support for Ethernet in the
First Mile (EFM) and 10GBASE-CX4 MAUs.

RFC 4836 MAU MIB April 2007
1. Introduction
This document 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 managing IEEE 802.3
[IEEE802.3] Medium Attachment Units (MAUs).
The previous version of this document, RFC 3636 [RFC3636], defined a
single MIB module. This document splits the original MIB module into
two, putting frequently updated object identities and textual
conventions into a separate, IANA-maintained MIB module, in order to
decrease the need of updating the basic MAU MIB module.
The first version of the IANA-maintained MIB module also extends the
list of managed objects to support Ethernet in the First Mile (EFM)
and 10GBASE-CX4 interfaces.
Ethernet technology, as defined by the 802.3 Working Group of the
IEEE, continues to evolve, with scalable increases in speed, new
types of cabling and interfaces, and new features. This evolution
may require changes in the managed objects in order to reflect this
new functionality. This document, as with other documents issued by
this working group, reflects a certain stage in the evolution of
Ethernet technology. In the future, this document might be revised,
or new documents might be issued by the Ethernet Interfaces and Hub
MIB Working Group, in order to reflect the evolution of Ethernet
technology.
2. 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].
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 [RFC2119].
Beili Standards Track [Page 3]
RFC 4836 MAU MIB April 2007
3. Overview
Instances of these object types represent attributes of an IEEE 802.3
MAU. Several types of MAUs are defined in the IEEE 802.3 CSMA/CD
standard [IEEE802.3]. These MAUs may be connected to IEEE 802.3
repeaters or to 802.3 (Ethernet-like) interfaces. For convenience,
this document refers to these devices as "repeater MAUs" and
"interface MAUs."
The definitions presented here are based on Section 30.5, "Layer
Management for 10 Mb/s, 100 Mb/s, 1000 Mb/s, and 10 Gb/s Medium
Attachment Units (MAUs)", Section 30.6, "Management for link Auto-
Negotiation", and Annex 30A, "GDMO Specifications for 802.3 managed
object classes" of IEEE Std. 802.3-2005 [IEEE802.3]. This
specification is intended to provide for management of all types of
Ethernet/802.3 MAUs.
3.1. Relationship to RFC 3636
The management definitions provided in this document are intended to
be a superset of those defined by RFC 3636 [RFC3636].
In order to decrease the need of updating the basic MAU MIB module
due to the new MAU type, Media Available state, Auto Negotiation
capability and/or Jack type introduction, all relevant object
identities and textual conventions have been moved to a separate,
IANA-maintained MIB module IANA-MAU-MIB, the first version of which
is defined in this document. Thus when a new MAU type, Media
Available state, Auto Negotiation capability, and/or Jack type is
defined by the IEEE 802.3 working group, only the IANA-maintained
module needs to be revised, leaving the basic MAU-MIB module defined
in this document unchanged.
In addition, the new definitions are added to the IANA-maintained MIB
module, to support Ethernet in the First Mile (EFM) and 10GBASE-CX4
interfaces, defined in IEEE Std 802.3ah-2004 [IEEE802.3ah] and IEEE
Std 802.3ak-2004 [IEEE802.3ak] respectively, now part of IEEE Std
802.3-2005 [IEEE802.3].
It should be noted that the changes made in this revision will not be
entirely backward-compatible with MIB modules that currently import
MAU type object identity descriptors from the MAU-MIB; such modules
will need to be revised to import those DESCRIPTORS from the IANA-
MAU-MIB. Similarly, any management applications that process the
object identity definitions (e.g., to present the DESCRIPTION text to
a user) will need to get those definitions from the IANA-MAU-MIB
instead of the MAU-MIB. While it is true that changes that require
such adjustments are not strictly compliant with the SMIv2 rules
Beili Standards Track [Page 4]
RFC 4836 MAU MIB April 2007
governing MIB module revisions (see [RFC2578] Section 10), in this
case continued high maintenance costs that would result from not
making these changes make the deviation from the rules justified. It
should be noted that the working group was not able to find any
examples of MIB modules or management applications that would
actually be negatively affected by the changes.
3.2. Relationship to Other MIBs
It is assumed that an agent implementing MAU-MIB will also implement
(at least) the 'system' group defined in the SNMPv2 MIB [RFC3418].
The following sections identify other MIBs that such an agent should
implement.
3.2.1. Relationship to the Interfaces MIB
The sections of this document that define interface MAU-related
objects specify an extension to the Interfaces MIB [RFC2863]. An
agent implementing these interface-MAU related objects MUST also
implement the relevant groups of the ifCompliance3 MODULE-COMPLIANCE
statement of the Interface MIB. The value of the object ifMauIfIndex
is the same as the value of 'ifIndex' used to instantiate the
interface to which the given MAU is connected.
It is REQUIRED that an agent implementing the interface-MAU related
objects in the MAU-MIB will also fully comply with the
dot3Compliance2 MODULE-COMPLIANCE statement of the Ethernet-like
Interfaces MIB, [RFC3635]. Furthermore, when the interface-MAU
related objects are used to manage a 10GBASE-W PHY -- i.e., when
ifMauType is equal to dot3MauType10GigBaseW or any other 10GBASE-W
variant -- then the agent MUST also support the Ethernet WAN
Interface Sublayer (WIS) MIB [RFC3637] and must follow the interface
layering model specified therein. In that case the value of the
object ifMauIfIndex is the same as the value of 'ifIndex' for the
layer at the top of the stack, i.e., for the ifTable entry that has
'ifType' equal to ethernetCsmacd(6). If the interface-MAU related
objects are used to manage a PHY that allows the MAU type to be
changed dynamically, then the agent SHALL create ifTable,
ifStackTable, and ifInvStackTable entries that pertain to the WIS
when ifMauDefaultType is changed to a 10GBASEW variant (i.e., one of
dot3MauType10GigBaseW, dot3MauType10GigBaseEW,
dot3MauType10GigBaseLW, or dot3MauType10GigBaseSW) from any other
type, and shall destroy the WIS-related entries when ifMauDefaultType
is changed to a non- 10GBASE-W type. The agent SHALL also change the
values of 'ifConnectorPresent' and 'ifHighSpeed' in the ifTable entry
indexed by ifMauIfIndex as specified in [RFC3635] and [RFC3637] when
ifMauDefaultType is manipulated in this way, but SHALL NOT otherwise
alter that entry.
Beili Standards Track [Page 5]
RFC 4836 MAU MIB April 2007
(Note that repeater ports are not represented as interfaces in the
Interface MIB.)
3.2.2. Relationship to the 802.3 Repeater MIB Module
The section of this document that defines repeater MAU-related
objects specifies an extension to the 802.3 Repeater MIB defined in
[RFC2108]. An agent implementing these repeater-MAU related objects
MUST also comply with the snmpRptrModCompl compliance statement of
the 802.3 Repeater MIB module.
The values of 'rpMauGroupIndex' and 'rpMauPortIndex' used to
instantiate a repeater MAU variable SHALL be the same as the values
of 'rptrPortGroupIndex' and 'rptrPortIndex' used to instantiate the
port that the given MAU is connected to.
3.3. Management of Internal MAUs
In some situations, a MAU can be "internal" -- i.e., its
functionality is implemented entirely within a device. For example,
a managed repeater may contain an internal repeater-MAU and/or an
internal interface-MAU through which management communications
originating on one of the repeater's external ports pass, in order to
reach the management agent associated with the repeater. Such
internal MAUs may or may not be managed. If they are managed,
objects describing their attributes should appear in the appropriate
MIB subtree: dot3RpMauBasicGroup for internal repeater-MAUs and
dot3IfMauBasicGroup for internal interface-MAUs.
3.4. Mapping of IEEE 802.3 Managed Objects
This section contains the mapping between relevant managed objects
(attributes) defined in [IEEE802.3] Clause 30, and managed objects
defined in this document.

RFC 4836 MAU MIB April 2007
3.5. Addition of New MAU Types
3.5.1. dot3MauType OBJECT-IDENTITIES
The dot3MauType OBJECT IDENTIFIER and its OBJECT-IDENTITY definitions
has been moved from the MAU-MIB into the IANA-maintained IANA-MAU-
MIB, the first version of which is defined in this document.
When a new IEEE 802.3 MAU is defined, IANA can re-issue a version of
IANA-MAU-MIB with the new dot3MauType OBJECT-IDENTITY and its
matching IANAifMauTypeListBits textual convention value and,
possibly, with new IANAifMauMediaAvailable, IANAifMauAutoNegCapBits,
and/or IANAifJackType values.
An Expert Review, as defined in RFC 2434 [RFC2434], is REQUIRED for
the addition of the new MAU, Media Available states, Auto Negotiation
capabilities, and/or Jack types.
In some cases, new MAU types may require additional managed objects
or may have side effects on the behavior of existing managed objects.
In such cases a standards-track specification (which may be a new
document or a revision of this document) is also REQUIRED. Any such
document is REQUIRED to note any special properties of the MAU types
that it defines - for example, side effects on the ifStackTable as
noted in this document for 10GBASE-W MAUs.
3.5.2. IANAifMauTypeListBits TEXTUAL-CONVENTION
The syntax of ifMauTypeListBits is changed to be a textual
convention, such that the enumerated integer values are now defined
in the textual convention IANAifMauTypeListBits, which can be re-
specified (with additional values, when defined by IEEE 802.3) in the
IANA-maintained MIB module without issuing a new version of this
document.
3.5.3. IANAifMauMediaAvailable TEXTUAL-CONVENTION
The syntax of ifMauMediaAvailable and rpMauMediaAvailable is changed
to be a textual convention, such that the enumerated integer values
are now defined in the textual convention IANAifMauMediaAvailable,
which can be re-specified (with additional values, when defined by
IEEE 802.3) in the IANA-maintained MIB module without issuing a new
version of this document.
Beili Standards Track [Page 9]
RFC 4836 MAU MIB April 2007
3.5.4. IANAifMauAutoNegCapBits TEXTUAL-CONVENTION
The syntax of ifMauAutoNegCapabilityBits,
ifMauAutoNegCapAdvertisedBits, and ifMauAutoNegCapReceivedBits
objects is changed to be a textual convention, such that the
enumerated integer values are now defined in the textual convention
IANAifMauAutoNegCapBits, which can be re-specified (with additional
values, when defined by IEEE 802.3) in the IANA-maintained MIB module
without issuing a new version of this document.
3.5.5. JackType TEXTUAL-CONVENTION
The JackType Textual Convention has been deprecated in favor of the
IANAifJackType defined in the IANA-maintained MIB module, so the new
Jack types can be added (when defined by IEEE 802.3) without issuing
a new version of this document.

A MAU in the operational(3) state is fully
functional; it operates, and passes signals to its
attached DTE or repeater port in accordance to
its specification.
A MAU in standby(4) state forces DI and CI to
idle, and the media transmitter to idle or fault,
if supported. Standby(4) mode only applies to

rpMauMediaAvailable is unaffected.
A MAU in shutdown(5) state assumes the same

as though it were powered down or not connected.
The MAU MAY return other(1) value for the

state will remove power from the AUI.
Setting this variable to the value reset(6)
resets the MAU in the same manner as a

return the value reset(6).
Setting this variable to the value

the IEEE 802.3 working group and approved for publication in a
revision of IEEE Std 802.3 will be added to this MIB module,
provided that it is suitable for being managed by the base
objects in the MAU-MIB. An Expert Review, as defined in
RFC 2434 [RFC2434], is REQUIRED for such additions.
The following reference is used throughout this MIB module:

ifMauMediaAvailable and rpMauMediaAvailable objects in the
(updated) definition of MAU-MIB's ifMauTable and rpMauTable
respectively.
Possible values are:
other(1) - undefined (not listed below)
unknown(2) - MAU's true state is unknown; e.g.,
during initialization
available(3) - link, light, or loopback is normal
notAvailable(4) - link loss, low light, or no loopback
remoteFault(5) - a fault has been detected at the
remote end of the link. This value
applies to 10BASE-FB, 100BASE-T4 Far
End Fault Indication and non-specified
remote faults from a system running
auto-negotiation
invalidSignal(6) - invalid signal has been received from
the other end of the link, 10BASE-FB
only
remoteJabber(7) - remote fault, due to jabber
Beili Standards Track [Page 49]
RFC 4836 MAU MIB April 2007
remoteLinkLoss(8) - remote fault, due to link loss
remoteTest(9) - remote fault, due to test
offline(10) - offline, Clause 37 Auto-Negotiation
only
autoNegError(11) - Auto-Negotiation Error, Clause 37
Auto-Negotiation only
pmdLinkFault(12) - PMA/PMD receive link fault. In case
of PAF (2BASE-TL / 10PASS-TS PHYs),
all PMEs in the aggregation group have
detected a link fault
wisFrameLoss(13) - WIS loss of frame, 10GBASE-W only
wisSignalLoss(14) - WIS loss of signal, 10GBASE-W only
pcsLinkFault(15) - PCS receive link fault
excessiveBER(16) - PCS Bit Error Ratio monitor
reporting excessive error ratio
dxsLinkFault(17) - DTE XGXS receive link fault, XAUI only
pxsLinkFault(18) - PHY XGXS receive link fault, XAUI only
availableReduced(19) - link normal, reduced bandwidth,
2BASE-TL / 10PASS-TS only
ready(20) - at least one PME in the aggregation
group is detecting handshake tones,
2BASE-TL / 10PASS-TS only
If the MAU is a 10M b/s link or fiber type (FOIRL, 10BASE-T,
10BASE-F), then this is equivalent to the link test fail
state/low light function. For an AUI, 10BASE2, 10BASE5, or
10BROAD36 MAU, this indicates whether loopback is detected on
the DI circuit. The value of this attribute persists between
packets for MAU types AUI, 10BASE5, 10BASE2, 10BROAD36, and
10BASEFP.
At power-up or following a reset, the Media Available state
will be unknown(2) for AUI, 10BASE5, 10BASE2, 10BROAD36, and
10BASE-FP MAUs. For these MAUs loopback will be tested on each
transmission during which no collision is detected.
If DI is receiving input when DO returns to IDL after a
transmission and there has been no collision during the
transmission, then loopback will be detected. The Media
Available state will only change during noncollided
transmissions for AUI, 10BASE2, 10BASE5, 10BROAD36, and
10BASE-FP MAUs.
For 100BASE-T2, 100BASE-T4, 100BASE-TX, 100BASE-FX,
100BASE-LX10, and 100BASE-BX10 PHYs the enumerations match the
states within the link integrity state diagram.
Any MAU that implements management of [IEEE802.3] Clause
28 Auto-Negotiation, will map remote fault indication to
remoteFault(5).
Beili Standards Track [Page 50]
RFC 4836 MAU MIB April 2007
Any MAU that implements management of Clause 37
Auto-Negotiation, will map the received RF1 and RF2 bits as
follows: Offline maps to offline(10), Link_Failure maps to
remoteFault(5), and Auto-Negotiation Error maps to
autoNegError(11).
The value remoteFault(5) applies to 10BASE-FB remote
fault indication, the 100BASE-X far-end fault indication, and
nonspecified remote faults from a system running Clause 28
Auto-Negotiation.
The value remoteJabber(7), remoteLink loss(8), or remoteTest(9)
SHOULD be used instead of remoteFault(5) where the reason for
remote fault is identified in the remote signaling protocol.
Where a Clause 22 MII or Clause 35 GMII is present, a logic
one in the remote fault bit maps to the value remoteFault(5),
a logic zero in the link status bit maps to the enumeration
notAvailable(4). The value notAvailable(4) takes precedence
over remoteFault(5).
For 2BASE-TL and 10PASS-TS PHYs, the value unknown(2) maps to
the condition where the PHY (PCS with connected PMEs) is
initializing, the value ready(20) maps to the condition where
the interface is down and at least one PME in the aggregation
group is ready for handshake, the value available(3) maps to
the condition where all the PMEs in the aggregation group are
up, the value notAvailable(4) maps to the condition where all
the PMEs in the aggregation group are down and no handshake
tones are detected, the value availableReduced(19) maps to the
condition where the interface is up, a link fault is detected
at the receive direction by one or more PMEs in the
aggregation group, but at least one PME is up and the
enumeration pmdLinkFault(12) maps to the condition where a link
fault is detected at the receive direction by all of the PMEs
in the aggregation group.
For 10 Gb/s the enumerations map to value of the link_fault
variable within the Link Fault Signaling state diagram
as follows: the value OK maps to the value available(3),
the value Local Fault maps to the value notAvailable(4),
and the value Remote Fault maps to the value remoteFault(5).
The value pmdLinkFault(12), wisFrameLoss(13),
wisSignalLoss(14), pcsLinkFault(15), excessiveBER(16), or
dxsLinkFault(17) SHOULD be used instead of the value
notAvailable(4), where the reason for the Local Fault state can
be identified through the use of the Clause 45 MDIO Interface.
Where multiple reasons for the Local Fault state can be
identified, only the highest precedence error SHOULD be
Beili Standards Track [Page 51]
RFC 4836 MAU MIB April 2007
reported. This precedence in descending order is as follows:
pxsLinkFault
pmdLinkFault
wisFrameLoss
wisSignalLoss
pcsLinkFault
excessiveBER
dxsLinkFault.
Where a Clause 45 MDIO interface is present a logic zero in
the PMA/PMD Receive link status bit ([IEEE802.3]
Section 45.2.1.2.2) maps to the value pmdLinkFault(12),
logic one in the LOF status bit (Section 45.2.2.10.4) maps
to the value wisFrameLoss(13), a logic one in the LOS
status bit (Section 45.2.2.10.5) maps to the value
wisSignalLoss, a logic zero in the PCS Receive
link status bit (Section 45.2.3.2.2) maps to the value
pcsLinkFault(15), a logic one in the 10GBASE-R PCS Latched
high BER status bit (Section 45.2.3.12.2) maps to the value
excessiveBER, a logic zero in the DTE XS receive link status
bit (Section 45.2.5.2.2) maps to the value dxsLinkFault(17)
and a logic zero in the PHY XS transmit link status bit
(Section 45.2.4.2.2) maps to the value pxsLinkFault(18).

6. Security Considerations
The IANA-MAU-MIB does not define any management objects. Instead, it
defines a set of textual conventions which are used by the MAU-MIB
and may be used by other MIB modules to define management objects.
Meaningful security considerations can only be written for MIB
modules that define management objects.
There are a number of management objects defined in the MAU-MIB that
have a MAX-ACCESS clause of read-write. Setting these objects can
have a serious effect on the operation of the network, including:
o enabling or disabling a MAU
o changing a MAU's default type
o enabling, disabling, or restarting autonegotiation
o modifying the capabilities that a MAU advertizes during
autonegotiation.
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.
Some of the readable objects in the MAU-MIB module (i.e., objects
with a MAX-ACCESS other than not-accessible) may be considered
sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. In some
environments, it may be undesirable to allow unauthorized parties to
access statistics or status information about individual links in a
network. It is thus important to control even GET and/or NOTIFY
access to these objects and possibly to even encrypt the values of
these objects when sending them over the network via SNMP.
Beili Standards Track [Page 62]
RFC 4836 MAU MIB April 2007
SNMP versions prior to SNMPv3 did not include adequate security.
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 the MAU-MIB module.
It is RECOMMENDED that the implementors consider the security
features as provided by the SNMPv3 framework (see [RFC3410], section
8), including full support for the SNMPv3 cryptographic mechanisms
(for authentication and privacy).
Furthermore, deployment of SNMP versions prior to SNMPv3 is NOT
RECOMMENDED. Instead, it is RECOMMENDED to deploy SNMPv3 and to
enable cryptographic security. It is then a customer/operator
responsibility to ensure that the SNMP entity giving access to an
instance of the MAU-MIB module 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.
7. IANA Considerations
This document defines first version of the IANA-maintained IANA-MAU-
MIB module. It is intended that each new MAU type, Media Available
state, Auto Negotiation capability, and/or Jack type defined by the
IEEE 802.3 working group and approved for publication in a revision
of IEEE Std 802.3 will be added to the IANA-maintaned MIB module,
provided that it is suitable for being managed by the base objects in
the MAU-MIB module.
For each new MAU type added, a short description of the MAU
technology and, wherever possible, a reference to a publicly
available specification SHOULD be specified. An Expert Review, as
defined in RFC 2434 [RFC2434], is REQUIRED, for each modification.

RFC 4836 MAU MIB April 2007
the Ethernet Interfaces and Hub MIB Working Group. It extends that
document by moving the object identities and textual conventions for
MAU types into a IANA-maintained MIB module. In addition, support is
provided for the EFM and 10GBASE-CX4 MAUs as defined in [IEEE802.3ah]
and [IEEE802.3ak] respectively.
RFC 3636, in turn, was based on the Proposed Standard MAU MIB, RFC
2668 [RFC2668], edited by John Flick of Hewlett-Packard and Andrew
Smith, then of Extreme Networks, and produced by the Ethernet
Interfaces and Hub MIB Working Group. It extends that document by
providing support for 10 Gb/s MAUs as defined in [IEEE802.3ae].
RFC 2668, in turn, was based on the Proposed Standard MAU MIB, RFC
2239 [RFC2239], edited by Kathryn de Graaf, then of 3Com, and Dan
Romascanu, then of Madge Networks, and produced by the Ethernet
Interfaces and Hub MIB Working Group. It extended that document by
providing support for 1000 Mb/sec MAUs, PAUSE negotiation and remote
fault status as defined in [IEEE802.3].
RFC 2239, in turn, was based on the Proposed Standard MAU MIB, RFC
1515 [RFC1515], edited by Donna McMaster, then of SynOptics
Communications, Keith McCloghrie, then of Hughes LAN Systems, and Sam
Roberts, then of Farallon Computing, and produced by the Hub MIB
Working Group. It extends that document by providing support for 100
Mb/sec MAUs, full duplex MAUs, auto-negotiation, and jack management
as defined in [IEEE802.3].
