Introduction The Energy Management (EMAN) standards provide a specification for Energy Management. This document defines a subset of a Management Information Base (MIB) for use with network management protocols for Energy monitoring of network devices and devices attached to the network and possibly extending to devices in the industrial automation setting with a network interface. The focus of the MIB module specified in this document is on the identification of Energy Objects and reporting the context and relationships of Energy Objects as defined in [RFC7326]. The module addresses Energy Object identification, Energy Object context, and Energy Object relationships. 1.1. Energy Management Document Overview This document specifies the Energy Object Context (ENERGY-OBJECT- CONTEXT-MIB) and IANA Energy Relationship (IANA-ENERGY-RELATION-MIB) modules. The Energy Object Context MIB module specifies MIB objects for identification of Energy Objects, and reporting context and relationship of an Energy Object. The IANA Energy Relationship MIB module specifies the first version of the IANA-maintained definitions of relationships between Energy Objects. Parello, et al. Standards Track [Page 2]
RFC 7461 Energy Object Context MIB March 2015 Firstly, to illustrate the importance of energy monitoring in networks and, secondly, to list some of the important areas to be addressed by the Energy Management Framework [RFC7326], several use cases and network scenarios are presented in the EMAN applicability statement document [EMAN-AS]. In addition, for each scenario, the target devices for energy management, and how those devices powered and metered are also presented. To address the network scenarios, requirements for power and energy monitoring for networking devices are specified in [RFC6988]. Based on the requirements in [RFC6988], [RFC7326] presents a solution approach. Accordingly, the scope of the MIB modules in this document is in accordance to the requirements specified in [RFC6988] and the concepts from [RFC7326]. This document is based on the Energy Management Framework [RFC7326] and meets the requirements on identification of Energy Objects and their context and relationships as specified in the Energy Management requirements document [RFC6988]. A second MIB module meeting the EMAN requirements [RFC6988] the Monitoring and Control MIB for Power and Energy [RFC7460], monitors the Energy Objects for Power States, for the Power and Energy consumption. Power State monitoring includes: retrieving Power States, Power State properties, current Power State, Power State transitions, and Power State statistics. In addition, this MIB module provides the Power Characteristics properties of the Power and Energy, along with optional characteristics. The applicability statement document [EMAN-AS] provides the list of use cases, describes the common aspects between existing Energy standards and the EMAN standard, and shows how the EMAN framework relates to other frameworks. 1.2. Conventions Used in This Document The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119]. 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]. Parello, et al. Standards Track [Page 3]
RFC 7461 Energy Object Context MIB March 2015 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 MIB modules that are compliant with SMIv2, which is described in STD 58, RFC 2578 [RFC2578], STD 58, RFC 2579 [RFC2579] and STD 58, RFC 2580 [RFC2580]. 3. Terminology Please refer to [RFC7326] for the definitions of the following terminology used in this document. Energy Management Energy Management System (EnMS) Energy Monitoring Energy Control electrical equipment non-electrical equipment (mechanical equipment) device component power inlet power outlet energy power demand provide energy receive energy meter (energy meter) battery Power Interface Nameplate Power Power Attributes Power Quality Power State Power State Set 4. Architecture Concepts Applied to the MIB Module This section describes the basic concepts specified in the Energy Management Framework [RFC7326], with specific information related to the MIB modules specified in this document. Parello, et al. Standards Track [Page 4]
RFC 7461 Energy Object Context MIB March 2015 The Energy Object Context (ENERGY-OBJECT-CONTEXT-MIB) MIB module in this document specifies MIB objects for the identification of Energy Objects and reporting context and relationship of an Energy Object. The managed objects are contained in two tables: eoTable and eoRelationTable. The first table, eoTable, focuses on the link to the other MIB modules, on identification, and on the context of the Energy Object. The second table, eoRelationTable, specifies the relationships between Energy Objects. This is a simplified representation of the relationship between Energy Objects. A "smidump-style" tree presentation of the MIB modules contained in the document is presented. The meaning of the three symbols in is a compressed representation of the object's MAX-ACCESS clause, which may have the following values: "not-accessible"->"---" "accessible-for-notify"->"--n" "read-only"->"r-n" "read-write"->"rwn" +- eoTable(1) | +- eoEntry(1) [entPhysicalIndex] | +-- r-n PethPsePortIndexOrZero eoEthPortIndex(1) +-- r-n PethPsePortGroupIndexOrZero eoEthPortGrpIndex(2) +-- r-n LldpPortNumberOrZero eoLldpPortNumber(3) +-- rwn MacAddress eoMgmtMacAddress(4) +-- r-n InetAddressType eoMgmtAddressType(5) +-- r-n InetAddress eoMgmtAddress(6) +-- r-n OCTET STRING eoMgmtDNSName(7) +-- rwn SnmpAdminString eoDomainName(8) +-- rwn SnmpAdminString eoRoleDescription(9) +-- rwn EnergyObjectKeywordList eoKeywords(10) +-- rwn Integer32 eoImportance(11) +-- r-n INTEGER eoPowerCategory(12) +-- rwn SnmpAdminString eoAlternateKey(13) +-- r-n INTEGER eoPowerInterfaceType(14) Parello, et al.

Standards Track [Page 7]
RFC 7461 Energy Object Context MIB March 2015 As displayed in Figure 1, the MIB objects can be classified in different logical grouping of MIB objects. 1) The Energy Object Identification. See Section 5.1 "Energy Object Identification". Devices and their sub-components are characterized by the power-related attributes of a physical entity present in the ENTITY-MIB [RFC6933]. 2) The Context Information. See Section 4.1 "Energy Object Context". 3) The links to other MIB modules. See Section 4.3 "Links to Other Identifiers". 4) The Energy Object Relationships specific information. See Section 4.4 "Energy Object Relationships". 5) The Energy Object Identity Persistence. See Section 4.5 "Energy Object Identity Persistence". 4.1. Energy Object Identification Refer to the "Identification" section in [RFC7326] for background information about Energy Objects. Every Energy Object MUST implement the unique index, entPhysicalIndex, entPhysicalName, entPhysicalClass, and entPhysicalUUID from the ENTITY-MIB [RFC6933]. Module Compliance with respect to entity4CRCompliance of ENTITY-MIB MUST be supported, which requires a limited number of objects supported (entPhysicalIndex, entPhysicalName, entPhysicalClass, and entPhysicalUUID). entPhysicalIndex is used as index for the Energy Object in the ENERGY-OBJECT-CONTEXT-MIB module. Every Energy Object MUST have a printable name assigned to it. Energy Objects MUST implement the entPhysicalName object specified in the ENTITY-MIB [RFC6933], which must contain the Energy Object name. For the ENERGY-OBJECT-CONTEXT-MIB compliance, every Energy Object instance MUST implement the entPhysicalUUID from the ENTITY-MIB [RFC6933]. As displayed in [RFC4122], the following is an example of the string representation of a Universally Unique Identifier (UUID) as a URN: urn:uuid:f81d4fae-7dec-11d0-a765-00a0c91e6bf6. For example, to understand the relationship between Energy Object Components and Energy Objects, the ENTITY-MIB physical containment tree [RFC6933] MUST be implemented. Parello, et al. Standards Track [Page 8]
RFC 7461 Energy Object Context MIB March 2015 A second example deals with one of the ENTITY-MIB extensions: if the Energy Object temperature is required, the managed objects from the ENTITY-SENSOR-MIB [RFC3433] should be supported. Each Energy Object MUST belong to a single Energy Management Domain or in other words, an Energy Object cannot belong to more than one Energy Management Domain. Refer to the "Context: Domain" section in [RFC7326] for background information. The eoDomainName, which is an element of the eoTable, is a read-write MIB object. The Energy Management Domain should map 1:1 with a metered or sub-metered portion of the network. The Energy Management Domain MUST be configured on the Energy Object. The Energy Object MAY inherit some of the domain parameters (possibly domain name, some of the context information such as role or keywords, importance) from the Energy Object or the Energy Management Domain MAY be configured directly in an Energy Object. When an Energy Object acts as a Power Aggregator, the Energy Objects for which Power should be aggregated MUST be members of the same Energy Management Domain, specified by the eoDomainName MIB Object. 4.2. Energy Object Context Refer to the "Context: Domain" section in [RFC7326] for background information. An Energy Object must provide a value for eoImportance in the range of 1-100 to help differentiate the use or relative value of the device. The importance range is from 1 (least important) to 100 (most important). The default importance value is 1. An Energy Object can provide a set of eoKeywords. These keywords are a list of tags that can be used for grouping and summary reporting within or between Energy Management Domains. An Energy Object can have Power Interfaces and those interfaces can be classified as Power Inlet, Power Outlet, or both. An Energy Object can be classified based on the physical properties of the Energy Object. That Energy Object can be classified as consuming power or supplying power to other devices or that Energy Object can perform both of those functions and finally, an Energy Object can be a passive meter. Additionally, an Energy Object can provide an eoRoleDescription string that indicates the purpose the Energy Object serves in the network. Parello, et al. Standards Track [Page 9]
RFC 7461 Energy Object Context MIB March 2015 4.3. Links to Other Identifiers While the entPhysicalIndex is the primary index for all MIB objects in the ENERGY-OBJECT-CONTEXT-MIB module, the Energy Management Systems (EnMS) must be able to make the link with the identifier(s) in other supported MIB modules. If the Energy Object is a Power over Ethernet (PoE) port, and if the Power over Ethernet MIB [RFC3621] is supported by the SNMP agent managing the Energy Object, then the Energy Objects eoethPortIndex and eoethPortGrpIndex MUST contain the corresponding values of pethPsePortIndex and pethPsePortGroupIndex [RFC3621]. If the LLDP-MED MIB [LLDP-MIB] is supported by the Energy Object SNMP agent, then the Energy Object eoLldpPortNumber MUST contain the corresponding lldpLocPortNum from the LLDP MIB. The intent behind the links to the other MIB module identifier(s) is to correlate the instances in the different MIB modules. This will allow the ENERGY-OBJECT-CONTEXT-MIB module to reference other MIB modules in cases where the Power over Ethernet and the LLDP MIB modules are supported by the SNMP agent. Some use cases may not implement either of these two MIB modules for the Energy Objects. However, in situations where either of these two MIB modules are implemented, the EnMS must be able to correlate the instances in the different MIB modules. The eoAlternateKey object specifies an alternate key string that can be used to identify the Energy Object. Since an EnMS may need to correlate objects across management systems, this alternate key is provided to facilitate such a link. This optional value is intended as a foreign key or alternate identifier for a manufacturer or EnMS to use to correlate the unique Energy Object Id in other systems or namespaces. If an alternate key is not available or is not applicable, then the value is the zero-length string. An Energy Object can have additional MIB objects that can be used for easier identification by the EnMS. The optional objects eoMgmtMacAddress, eoMgmtAddressType, and eoMgmtDNSName can be used to help identify the relationship between the Energy Objects and other NMS objects. These objects can be used as an alternate key to help link the Energy Object with other keyed information that may be stored within the EnMS(s). For the optional objects that may not be included in some vendor implementations, the expected behavior when those objects are polled is a response noSuchInstance. Parello, et al. Standards Track [Page 10]
RFC 7461 Energy Object Context MIB March 2015 4.4. Energy Object Relationships Refer to the "Relationships" section in [RFC7326] for the definition and background information. In order to link two Energy Objects, a separate table (eoRelationTable) has been introduced in this MIB module. Each Energy Object can have one or more Energy Object relationships with other Energy Objects. The relationship between Energy Objects is specified in eoRelationTable. The relationship between the Energy Objects is specified with the entPhysicalIndex of the Energy Object and the UUID of the remote Energy Object. The UUID MUST comply to the RFC 4122 specifications. It is important to note that it is possible that an Energy Object may not have an Energy Object relationship with other Energy Objects. The following relationships between Energy Objects have been considered in the eoRelationTable. Metering Relationship -> meteredBy / metering Power Source Relationship -> poweredBy / powering Aggregation Relationship -> aggregatedBy / aggregating Energy Object B has a "meteredBy" relationship with Energy Object A, if the energy consumption of Energy Object B is measured by Energy Object A. Equivalently, it is possible to indicate that Energy Object A has a "metering" relationship with Energy Object B. Energy Object B has a "poweredBy" relationship with Energy Object A, if the power source of Energy Object B is Energy Object A. Equivalently, it is possible to indicate that Energy Object A has a "powering" relationship with Energy Object B. Energy Object B has "aggregatedBy" relationship with Energy Object A, if Energy Object A is an aggregation point for energy usage of Energy Object B. Equivalently, it is possible to indicate that Energy Object A has "aggregating" relationship with Energy Object B. The IANA-ENERGY-RELATION-MIB module in Section 5 below specifies the first version of the IANA-maintained definitions of relationships. This way, for Energy Relationships, new textual conventions can be specified, without updating the primary Energy Object Context MIB module. Parello, et al. Standards Track [Page 11]
RFC 7461 Energy Object Context MIB March 2015 4.5. Energy Object Identity Persistence In some situations, the Energy Object identity information should be persistent even after a device reload. For example, in a static setup where a switch monitors a series of connected PoE phones, there is a clear benefit for the EnMS if the Energy Object Identification and all associated information persist, as it saves a network discovery. However, in other situations, such as a wireless access point monitoring the mobile user PCs, there is not much advantage to persist the Energy Object Information. The identity information of an Energy Object should be persisted and there is value in the writable MIB objects persisted. 5.

Although network managers must establish their own ranking, the following is a broad recommendation: 90 to 100 Emergency response 80 to 89 Executive or business critical 70 to 79 General or average 60 to 69 Staff or support 40 to 59 Public or guest 1 to 39 Decorative or hospitality The value of eoImportance must remain constant at least from one re-initialization of the Energy Object local management system to the next re-initialization."

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 opens devices to attack. These are the tables and objects and their sensitivity/vulnerability: Unauthorized changes to the eoDomainName, entPhysicalName, eoRoleDescription, eoKeywords, eoImportance, eoAlternateKey, eoRelationID, eoRelationship, eoRelationStatus, and/or eoRelationStorageType MAY disrupt power and energy collection, and therefore any predefined policies defined in the network. Parello, et al. Standards Track [Page 27]
RFC 7461 Energy Object Context MIB March 2015 SNMP versions prior to SNMPv3 did not include adequate security. Even if the network itself is secure (for example by using IPsec), 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. Implementations SHOULD provide the security features described by the SNMPv3 framework (see [RFC3410]), and implementations claiming compliance to the SNMPv3 standard MUST include full support for authentication and privacy via the User-based Security Model (USM) [RFC3414] with the AES cipher algorithm [RFC3826]. Implementations MAY also provide support for the Transport Security Model (TSM) [RFC5591] in combination with a secure transport such as SSH [RFC5592] or TLS/DTLS [RFC6353]. 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. In certain situations, energy and power monitoring can reveal sensitive information about individuals' activities and habits. Implementors of this specification should use appropriate privacy protections as discussed in Section 9 of RFC 6988 and monitoring of individuals and homes should only occur with proper authorization. 7.
