1.  Introduction

   This document describes a model for managing "emulated" ATM services
   over a Packet Switched Network (PSN).

   The document follows the requirements for Pseudowire Emulation Edge-
   to-Edge [PWREQ]; it is closely related to [ATMENCAP] and [ATMTRANS],
   which describe the encapsulation of ATM signals and provide the
   Emulation Service over a Packet Switched Network.

   The ATM management model consists of several MIB modules, following
   the layering model described in the PWE3 Architecture [PWARCH]
   document.  The ATM MIB module described in this document works
   closely with the MIB modules described in [AToMTC], [AToM], [IFMIB],
   [PWMIB], and the textual conventions defined in [PWTC].  The
   conceptual layering and relationship among all of those is described
   in Figure 1 and in the "Relation to Other PW-MIB Modules" section
   listed below.  An ATM connection will be a pseudowire (PW)
   connection.  It will not be treated as an interface and will
   therefore not be represented in the ifTable.

3.  Terminology

  This document follows the terminology used in PW Architecture
  [PWARCH].

  PSN-bound           References the traffic direction where an ATM Cell
                      is received, adapted to the packet, assigned a PW
                      label, and sent into the PSN.  Within the MIB
                      objects, it is called outbound.











Nicklass & Nadeau           Standards Track                     [Page 3]



RFC 5605                  Manage ATM over PSN                  July 2009


  CE-bound            The direction where packets are received
                      from the PSN, cells are reconstructed from the
                      packet payloads, and are sent into the ATM network
                      as cells.  Within the MIB objects, it is called
                      inbound.


  Adaptation          Refers to the method of adapting a "foreign"
                      communications protocol such that it can be
                      carried by a packet switched net (the PSN).  For
                      example, in an ATM service, the foreign protocol
                      is ATM.  The PSN may be MPLS.

  PSN                 Packet Switched Network.

  PSN Tunnel          A general term indicating a virtual connection
                      between the two PW edge devices.  In practice,
                      this connection is not limited to path-oriented
                      types of PSNs such as MPLS.  An example of a non-
                      path-oriented PSN is an IP PSN.

4.  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].

5.  Overview

   This MIB module is designed to satisfy the following requirements and
   constraints:

   o  Fit within the architecture defined by [PWARCH] and [PWMIB].

   o  Fit within the model for Virtual Path/Virtual Circuit (VP/VC)
      definitions and management concept as defined in the [AToM] MIB.

   o  Support manually configured ATM PWs.



Nicklass & Nadeau           Standards Track                     [Page 4]



RFC 5605                  Manage ATM over PSN                  July 2009


   o  Support automatically configured ATM PWs.

   o  Enable the use of any PSN type.

   o  Support point-to-point ATM PW connections.  Point-to-multipoint
      and multipoint-to-point connections are for future study.

   o  Allow configuration of all the parameters needed to establish a PW
      to carry ATM cells.

   o  Report ATM performance metrics for the ATM PW.  This includes
      cells transmit, Cells dropped, Cells received, and unknownCells.
      In addition, it reports performance metrics at packet level.

   o  Support ATM Operations, Administration, and Management (OAM)
      cells.

   o  Do not consider Integrated Local Management Interface (ILMI)
      support.

6.  Relation to Other PW-MIB Modules

   The MIB structure for defining a PW service is composed of three
   layers of MIB modules functioning together.  This general model is
   defined in the PWE3 Architecture [PWARCH].  The layering model is
   intended to sufficiently isolate PW services from the underlying PSN
   layer that carries the emulated service.  This is done at the same
   time as providing a standard means for connecting any supported
   services to any supported PSNs.

   The first layer, known as the service layer, contains service-
   specific modules such as the one defined in this document.  These
   modules define service-specific management objects that interface or
   collaborate with existing MIB modules for the native version of the
   service.  The service-specific module "glues" the standard module to
   the PWE MIB framework.

   The next layer of the PWE MIB framework is comprised of the PW-MIB
   module [PWMIB].  This module is used to configure general parameters
   of PW connections that are common to all types of emulated services
   and PSNs.  This layer is connected to the service-specific layer
   above, and the PSN layer below.

   The PSN layer provides PSN-specific modules for each type of PSN.
   These modules associate the PW with one or more "tunnels" that carry
   the service over the PSN.  These modules are defined in other
   documents.  This module is used to "glue" the PW service to the




Nicklass & Nadeau           Standards Track                     [Page 5]



RFC 5605                  Manage ATM over PSN                  July 2009


   underlying PSN-specific MIB modules.  In the case of MPLS, for
   example, the PW-MPLS MIB [PWMPLSMIB] is used to connect the PW
   service to either the MPLS-LDP [LDPMIB] or MPLS-TE [TEMIB] MIBs.

   [PWTC] defines some of the object types used in these modules.

7.  ATM-PW MIB Usage

   This section provides an example of using the MIB objects described
   in section 9 to set up an ATM PW.  While this example is not meant to
   illustrate every permutation of the MIB, it is intended as an aid in
   the understanding of some key concepts.  It is meant to be read after
   going through the MIB itself.  See [PWMIB] for an example of setting
   up a PSN Tunnel.

   The following example illustrates how a user will set up an ATM
   Adaptation Layer 5 (AAL5) ATM PW on a switch/router with cells
   entering the switch/router through ATM Interface with IfIndex 1000
   [IFMIB], Virtual Path Identifier (VPI) 1 and Virtual Circuit
   Identifier (VCI) 100 (from an ATM network to a PSN -- outbound
   direction) and on the way back, it goes out of the switch/router
   through ATM Interface 1000 with VPI 1 and VCI 100 (PSN to ATM network
   -- inbound direction).

   First create an entry in the PW MIB with pwType atmAal5SduVcc(2),
   then create entries in the pwAtmCfg table, inbound and outbound
   tables.

        pwAtmInboundTrafficParamDescr 0.0  --Best Effort
        pwAtmInboundRowStatus         createAndGo
       }

8.  Structure of the MIB Module

   This MIB consists of 4 types of tables;

   It is important to note that the TrafficParamDescr Table is not
   defined as part of this MIB, although an object pointing to such a
   table entry exists in all configuration tables of this MIB module.
   Users can refer to any ATM TrafficDescr (TD) Table if there is a need
   to overwrite the TD assigned to the ATM endpoint in the ATM service
   MIB [AToM].

   o  PW ATM Cfg Table: A table for generic parameters for ATM PW
      configuration that is applicable for each ATM PW.

   o  PW ATM Outbound Table: There are two tables to configure an
      outbound ATM PW depending on the type of service.  One table for
      1:1 service, and the other for N:1 service and transparent cell
      mode [ATMTRANS].

RFC 5605                  Manage ATM over PSN                  July 2009


   o  PW ATM Inbound Table: There are two tables to configure an inbound
      ATM PW depending on the type of service.  One table for 1:1
      service, and the other for N:1 service and transparent cell mode.

   o  PW ATM Perf Table: There are three tables; each contains the
      relevant time-dependent statistics for an ATM PW Entry.  There is
      a current table, a 15-minute interval table, and a one-day
      interval table.  The tables are aligned with statistic models of
      other PW services.

10.  Security Considerations

   There are a number of management objects defined in this MIB module
   with a MAX-ACCESS clause of read-write and/or read-create.  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.  These are the tables and objects and their
   sensitivity/vulnerability:

   The pwAtmOutboundTable, pwAtmInboundTable, pwAtmCfgTable,
   pwAtmOutboundNto1Table, and pwAtmInboundNto1Table contain objects of
   ATM PW parameters on a Provider Edge (PE) device.  Unauthorized
   access to objects in these tables could result in disruption of
   traffic on the network.

   The use of stronger mechanisms such as SNMPv3 security should be
   considered where possible.  Specifically, SNMPv3 VACM and USM MUST be
   used with any SNMPV3 agent, which implements this MIB module.
   Administrators should consider whether read access to these objects
   should be allowed, since read access may be undesirable under certain
   circumstances.

   Some of the readable objects in this MIB module (i.e., objects with a
   MAX-ACCESS other than not-accessible) may be considered sensitive or
   vulnerable in some network environments.  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.  These are the tables and objects and their
   sensitivity/vulnerability:







Nicklass & Nadeau           Standards Track                    [Page 33]



RFC 5605                  Manage ATM over PSN                  July 2009


   The pwATMCfgTable, pwAtmPerfCurrentTable, pwAtmPerfIntervalTable, and
   pwAtmPerf1DayIntervalTable collectively show the ATM pseudowire
   connectivity topology and its performance characteristics.

   If an Administrator does not want to reveal this information, then
   these tables should be considered sensitive/vulnerable.

   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 this MIB module.

   It is RECOMMENDED that implementers 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).

   Further, 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 this 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.

   The MIB module in this document uses the following IANA-assigned
   OBJECT IDENTIFIER values recorded in the SMI Numbers registry:
