1. IP Over InfiniBand (IPoIB) Working Group Management Information Bases 61st IETF Washington D.C. Sean Harnedy Mangrove Systems, Inc. sharnedy@mangrovesystems.com

2. IP Over InfiniBand (IPOIB) MIBs The IPOIB working group charter states that the group will specify a set of MIB objects to allow management of the InfiniBand fabric itself. The IPOIB Working Group web site is: http://www.ietf.org/html.charters/ipoib-charter.html

3. IPOIB MIBs (continued) There are seven IPOIB MIBs currently defined in the WG: 1.IPOIB Textual Conventions MIB Definition of Textual Conventions and OBJECT-IDENTITIES for IP Over InfiniBand (IPOVERIB) Management 2.IPOIB InfiniBand Interfaces MIB Definitions of Managed Objects for InfiniBand Interface Type 3.IPOIB Subnet Management Agent MIB Definitions of Managed Objects for the Infiniband Subnet Management Agent (SMA)

4. IPOIB MIBs (continued) 4.IPOIB Channel Adapter MIB Definitions of Managed Objects for InfiniBand Channel Adapters (CA) 5.IPOIB Baseboard Management Agent MIB Definitions of Managed Objects for the InfiniBand Baseboard Management Agent (BMA) 6. IPOIB Performance Management Agent MIB Definitions of Managed Objects for the InfiniBand Performance Management Agent (PMA) 7.IPOIB Subnet Manager MIB Definitions of Managed Objects for the InfiniBand Subnet Manager

5. IPOIB MIB Object Identifier Hierarchy O root-node | iso[1] | +---+------+ | | | [1] [2] identified-organization[3] | +-------+--+--+ | | | [1]... [5] dod[6] | internet[1] | +-------------+-----+------------------+----------------+ | | | | directory[1] management[2] experimental[3] private[4] | infinibandMIB[117] | +----------+-----------+----------+-+---------+-----------+----------+ | | | | | | | ibTcMIB[1] ibIfMIB[2] ibSmaMIB[3] ibCaMIB[4] ibBmaMIB[5] ibPmaMIB[6] ibSmMIB[7]

6. Textual Conventions MIB Describes the Textual Conventions and OBJECT- IDENTITIES for IPOIB SNMP management. The purpose of this MIB is to create a common repository for the IPOIB Textual Conventions. experimental 117 Defines infinibandMIB anchor node as { experimental 117}. Currently contains 10 TEXTUAL-CONVENTION macros. Current I-D: draft-ietf-ipoib-ibmib-tc-mib-06.txt Expires: April 2005

7. InfiniBand Interfaces MIB Describes the managed objects for managing IBA-defined InfiniBand interfaces. The purpose of this MIB is to augment the standard SNMP Interface MIB (RFC 2863). Defines standard InfiniBand port ifType as infiniband(199). It contains an InfiniBand Port statistics table, a Virtual Lane Traffic Table for each port’s VLs, and a table for the IPOIB Link layer addresses (20-octet value that uniquely identifies each IPOIB client end-point, i.e., QPN + GID). Current I-D: draft-ietf-ipoib-ibif-mib-07.txt Expires: April 2005

8. Subnet Management Agent MIB Describes the objects for managing InfiniBand Subnet Management Agents (SMA). The purpose of this MIB is to define the objects necessary to manage the SMA resident on the managed node. It contains information about the Node, Switch, GUIDs, IB Management and Data ports, P Keys, SL to VL mapping, linear, multicast, and random forwarding, Subnet Manager, vendor diagnostics, LEDs, and SMA traps. Current I-D: draft-ietf-ipoib-subnet-mgmt-agent-mib-07.txt Expires: April 2005

9. Channel Adapters MIB Describes the objects for managing the InfiniBand Channel Adapters. The purpose of this MIB is to define the objects necessary to manage Channel Adapters (HCAs and TCAs). This includes general CA information, CA attributes, CA port attributes, and the associated CA port GID info. Version –03 model added multiple CAs per managed node. Current I-D: draft-ietf-ipoib-channel-adapter-mib-06.txt Expired: April 2005

10. Baseboard Management MIB Describes the objects for managing the InfiniBand Baseboard Management Agents (BMA). The purpose of this MIB is define the objects necessary to manage a BMA resident on the managed node. Distinguishes between Module, Non-Module, and Managed Chassis BMAs. Includes information on the Baseboard Management Unit, the B Key group, and the Vital Product Data (VPD) group. (Mainly derived from IBTA Vol. 2; Chapter 13: Hardware Management). Current I-D: draft-ietf-ipoib-baseboard-mgmt-agent-mib-02.txt Expired: April 2005

11. Performance Management Agent MIB Describes the objects for managing InfiniBand Performance Management Agents (PMA). The purpose of this MIB is to define objects to manage each PMA on the managed node and to expose the sample counters to external SNMP management applications. Models both mandatory and optional running and sample counters. Issues with initial version: SYNTAX of counters, SNMP vs. IB counter behavior, interaction of SNMP agent with Performance Manager and PMA, API to PM, others. Current I-D: draft-ietf-ipoib-perf-mgmt-agent-mib-03.txt Expired: April 2005

12. Subnet Manager MIB Describes the objects for managing InfiniBand Subnet Managers Current I-D: draft-ietf-ipoib-sm-mib-00.txt Current status: Expired

13. Current IPOIB MIB Status New boilerplates added for TC, IBIF, SMA, CA, PMA, and SMA MIBS. Minor edits as needed. Intellectual Property notices have been updated. The latest Full Copyright Statements have been added. All “nits” revealed from the idnits script (version 1.44) were resolved (spacing, hyphenation, etc.). BMA needs to be updated to new 1.1 IBTA Specification. Subnet Manager MIB has expired. It needs to be updated and resubmitted to the Internet Drafts editor. Gauge interest for this work effort. Gather implementation experience about any of the IPOIB MIBs. Send comments to mailing list please (ipoverib@ietf.org).
