The SNMP Management Framework The SNMP Management Framework presently consists of five major components: o An overall architecture, described in RFC 2571 [5]. o Mechanisms for describing and naming objects and events for the purpose of management. The first version of this Structure of Management Information (SMI) is called SMIv1 and described in STD 16, RFC 1155 [6], STD 16, RFC 1212 [7] and RFC 1215 [8]. The second version, called SMIv2, is described in STD 58, RFC 2578 [9], STD 58, RFC 2579 [10] and STD 58, RFC 2580 [11]. o Message protocols for transferring management information. The first version of the SNMP message protocol is called SNMPv1 and described in STD 15, RFC 1157 [12]. A second version of the SNMP message protocol, which is not an Internet standards track protocol, is called SNMPv2c and described in RFC 1901 [13] and RFC 1906 [14]. The third version of the message protocol is called SNMPv3 and described in RFC 1906 [14], RFC 2572 [15] and RFC 2574 [16]. o Protocol operations for accessing management information. The first set of protocol operations and associated PDU formats is described in STD 15, RFC 1157 [12]. A second set of protocol operations and associated PDU formats is described in RFC 1905 [17]. Fenner Section 1. [Page 2] INTERNET-DRAFT Expires: December 2002 June 2002 o A set of fundamental applications described in RFC 2573 [18] and the view-based access control mechanism described in RFC 2575 [19]. A more detailed introduction to the current SNMP Management Framework can be found in RFC 2570 [20]. Managed objects are accessed via a virtual information store, termed the Management Information Base or MIB. Objects in the MIB are defined using the mechanisms defined in the SMI. This memo specifies a MIB module that is compliant to the SMIv2. A MIB conforming to the SMIv1 can be produced through the appropriate translations. The resulting translated MIB must be semantically equivalent, except where objects or events are omitted because no translation is possible (use of Counter64). Some machine readable information in SMIv2 will be converted into textual descriptions in SMIv1 during the translation process. However, this loss of machine readable information is not considered to change the semantics of the MIB. 2. Revision History Changes from draft-ietf-ipngwg-rfc2013-update-01.txt 28 May 2002 Removed udpConnectionTable Renamed ListenerTable to EndpointTable, since with a remote address Listener is not quite correct. Use ''h consistently for 'any IP address', instead of sometimes ''h and sometimes all-zeroes of the right address family. Changes from draft-ietf-ipngwg-rfc2013-update-00.txt 14 November 2001 Added udpConnectionTable Added udpListenerRemoteAddressType, to distinguish e.g. IPV6_V6ONLY Added counters to udpListenerTable and udpConnectionTable Changes from draft-ops-rfc2013-update-00.txt Fenner Section 2. [Page 3] INTERNET-DRAFT Expires: December 2002 June 2002 12 Jul 2001 Turned into IPNG WG document Changes from first draft posted to v6mib mailing list: 23 Feb 2001 Made threshold for HC packet counters 1Mpps Added copyright statements and table of contents 21 Feb 2001 -- Juergen's changes Renamed udpInetTable to udpListenerTable Updated Conformance info 6 Feb 2001 Removed v6-only objects. Removed remote and instance objects, turning the table back into a listener-only table. Renamed inetUdp* to udpInet* Added HC in and out datagram counters Added SIZE restriction to udpListenerLocalAddress. (36 = 32-byte addresses plus 4-byte scope, but it's just a strawman) Used InetPortNumber TC from updated INET-ADDRESS-MIB Updated compliance statements. Added Keith to authors Added open issues section. 3. MIB Structure The current UDP-MIB defined in this memo consists of one tables an a group of scalars: - The udp group of scalars reports parameters and statistics of a UDP protocol engine. Two scalars udpHCInDatagrams and udpHCOutDatagrams have been added to this group since the publication of RFC 2013 in Fenner Section 3. [Page 4] INTERNET-DRAFT Expires: December 2002 June 2002 order to provide high-capacity counters for fast networks. - The udpEndpointTable provides access to status information for all UDP endpoints handled by a UDP protocol engine. The table provides for strictly listening endpoints, as with the historical udpTable, and also for "connected" UDP endpoints, which only accept packets from a given remote system. It also reports identification of the operating system level processes which handles UDP connections and the start time of a connection. 3.1. Relationship to Other MIBs This section discusses the relationship of this UDP-MIB module to other MIB modules. 3.1.1. Relationship to RFC1213-MIB UDP related MIB objects were originally defined as part of the RFC1213-MIB defined in RFC 1213. The UDP related objects of the RFC1213-MIB were later copied into a separate MIB module and published in RFC 2013 in SMIv2 format. The previous versions of the UDP-MIB both defined the udpTable, which has been deprecated for basically two reasons: (1) The udpTable only supports IPv4. The current approach in the IETF is to write IP version neutral MIBs rather than having different definitions for various version of IP. This reduces the amount of overhead when new objects are introduced since there is only one place to add them. Hence, the approach taken in RFC 2453 of having separate tables is not continued. (2) The udpTable does not permit describing "connected" UDP endpoints. It turns out that "connected" endpoints tend to have a different behaviour and management access pattern compared to listening endpoints. Adding remote endpoint information to the udpEndpointTable thus allows to add specific status and statistic objects for "connected" endpoints and connections. 3.1.2. Relationship to the IPV6-UDP-MIB The IPV6-UDP-MIB defined in RFC 2453 has been moved to Historic since the approach of having separate IP version specific tables is not followed anymore. Implementation of RFC 2453 is thus not suggested anymore. Fenner Section 3.1.2. [Page 5] INTERNET-DRAFT Expires: December 2002 June 2002 3.1.3. Relationship to HOST-RESOURCES-MIB and SYSAPPL-MIB The udpEndpointTable reports the identification of the operating system level process which handles a connection or a listening endpoint. The value is reported as an Unsigned32 which is expected to be the same as the hrSWRunIndex of the HOST-RESOURCES-MIB (RFC 2790) (if the value is smaller than 2147483647) or the sysApplElmtRunIndex of the SYSAPPL-MIB (RFC 2287). This allows managment applications to identify the UDP connections that belong to an operating system level process which has proven to be valuable in operational environments. 3.2. Use of IP Addresses (this section needs to be fleshed out) Addresses are as seen on the wire, not necessarily as the socket sees them (e.g. IPv4 address, not IPv6-mapped IPv4). Listener on in6addr_any without IPV6_V6ONLY socket option set (i.e. willing to accept v4 or v6) is indicated by AF = unknown. 4.

For example, an application using IPv6 'sockets' to communicate via IPv4 between ::ffff:10.0.0.1 and ::ffff:10.0.0.2 would use InetAddressType ipv4(1). Unlike the udpTable in RFC 2013, this table also allows the representation of an application which completely specifies both local and remote addresses and ports. A listening application is represented in three possible ways: 1) an application which is willing to accept both IPv4 and Fenner Section 4.

In all cases where the remote is a wildcard, the udpEndpointRemotePort is 0. If the operating system is demultiplexing UDP packets by remote address and port, or if the application has 'connected' the socket specifying a default remote address and port, the udpEndpointRemote* values should be used to reflect this." ::= { udp 7 } udpEndpointEntry OBJECT-TYPE SYNTAX UdpEndpointEntry MAX-ACCESS not-accessible STATUS current DESCRIPTION "Information about a particular current UDP endpoint."

Security Considerations There are no management objects defined in this MIB that have a MAX- ACCESS clause of read-write and/or read-create. So, if this MIB is implemented correctly, then there is no risk that an intruder can alter or create any management objects of this MIB via direct SNMP SET operations. Fenner Section 8. [Page 18] INTERNET-DRAFT Expires: December 2002 June 2002 There are a number of managed objects in this MIB that may contain sensitive information. These are: o The udpEndpointLocalPort and udpLocalPort objects can be used to identify what ports are open on the machine and can thus what attacks are likely to succeed, without the attacker having to run a port scanner. It is thus important to control even GET access to these objects and possibly to even encrypt the values of these object when sending them over the network via SNMP. Not all versions of SNMP provide features for such a secure environment. SNMPv1 by itself is not a secure environment. 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 this MIB. It is recommended that the implementers consider the security features as provided by the SNMPv3 framework. Specifically, the use of the User- based Security Model RFC 2574 [16] and the View-based Access Control Model RFC 2575 [19] is recommended. It is then a customer/user responsibility to ensure that the SNMP entity giving access to an instance of this MIB, 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. 9.
