I am responsible for SNMP and, occasionally, for Spanning Tree in my company. I had implemented Spanning Tree 802.1d and a Bridge MIB RFC1493. Now I've finished the first step of implementation of Rapid Spanning Tree 802.1w (it is under alpha testing now). This implementation, among other, supports a possibility to create one STP instance per VLAN (I know, it is not 802.1s compatible, it will be a next step). In a parallel way I am designing our private MIB for SNMP support for these features. In this message I am attaching it: may be ( and I will consider it as a great honor for myself) some ideas from it will be useful for you in your work under draft-ietf-bridge-rstpmib-00.txt Would you like to send your comments and remarks, I'll accept them with great gratitude. The attached files are: RSTP.mib - the MIB draft rstp.txt the brief structure of MIB, as it is presented by snmptranslate utility of NET-SNMP. Now please allow me to make some comments. . 1. For many reasons it is convenient to have a possibility to configure an device for operation after nearest reset. For STP this possibility has a special importance, while a non-atomic setting of parameters may follow drastic and unwanted changes in the network. So, the configuration that will be applied after nearest reset we call 'NVRAM-configuration'. The configuration of the *operating now* device is called 'RUN configuration'. For this concept reflection we use an TEXTUAL-CONVENTION named "StorageType". All writeble tables are indexed with an object of this type. Sure, the alternative is to organize two separate tables: one for run and one for NVRAM. I have to point, that our old MIBs have been organized in such way. 2. For the same reason all objects are separated onto writeble and readable-only tables. Sure (and it is a purpose), the latter type of tables are not indexed with object of StorageType type. More of that, we consider such division as a method to make a MIB more understandable by network managers. 3. We inserted in the MIB so called rstpMSTiCfgTable as a preparation for MSTP support. Now it allows us to support RSTP instances per VLAN. 4. In RFC1493 the dot1dTpFdbTable is indexed only by dot1dTpFdbAddress. It doesn't allow to support 802.1q tagged properties of the Bridge may be I missed the new bridge MIB editions) . Our rstpMacTable is indexed by both rstpMacAddr and rstpMacVid (the latter one may be equal to 0 in the untagged case) Thank you for your tolerance & patience. I look forward to working with you in the cooperation, while as far as I see private MIBs design is the evil, and we have to avoid it as strong as possible.

X-Mailman-Version: 1.0 Precedence: bulk List-Id: X-BeenThere: bridge-mib@ietf.org Hi Alex, I am not keen on the use of an extra index level to allow the concept of applying a change in the MIB immediately, or deferring it until after the next system reset. I know that my own implementation does not require this sort of behaviour, and I expect many other vendors implementations would not require this either. I also suspect the customers would not expect to have to reset their Bridges in order to apply a change to their Bridge parameters. I am not yet sure that it is safe to assume we can provide 802.1s Multiple Spanning Tree support by the simple use of an index with the MST Context Identifier to which the configuration is associated. I do not think it would make sense, for example, to define different values for ForwardDelay, ForceVersion, etc., in different MST contexts (the current IEEE 802.1s Draft 10 and Draft 10.1 do not allow this). Similarly, many of the per port parameters (rstpPortOperPointToPoint, rstpPortOperEdge, rstpPortOperSlowNeighbor, rstpPortOperRxBpduRstp, rstpPortOperRxBpduConfig, rstpPortOperRxBpduTcn) will apply to all MST contexts, and should not be indexed by the MSTi. Your MIB includes some objects that are not in IEEE 802.1w clause 14.8 (rstpPortOperRole, rstpPortOperSlowNeighbor, rstpPortOperRxBpduRstp, rstpPortOperRxBpduConfig, rstpPortOperRxBpduTcn). Are these really necessary? Are they useful? RFC 2674 already includes VLAN aware versions of the FDB tables and other VLAN related information. Taking the above points into consideration, I believe it leaves us with what is already in draft-ietf-bridge-rstpmib-00.txt, without the StorageType and MSTi indexes. Is this not sufficient? Les... alexr@nbase.co.il (Alex Ruzin)@ietf.org on 05/11/2001 12:00:40 Please respond to Sent by: bridge-mib-admin@ietf.org To: cc: , Subject: [Bridge-mib] (no subject) Dear Ladies & Gentlemen, First let me introduce myself. I am responsible for SNMP and, occasionally, for Spanning Tree in my company. I had implemented Spanning Tree 802.1d and a Bridge MIB RFC1493. Now I've finished the first step of implementation of Rapid Spanning Tree 802.1w (it is under alpha testing now). This implementation, among other, supports a possibility to create one STP instance per VLAN (I know, it is not 802.1s compatible, it will be a next step). In a parallel way I am designing our private MIB for SNMP support for these features. In this message I am attaching it: may be ( and I will consider it as a great honor for myself) some ideas from it will be useful for you in your work under draft-ietf-bridge-rstpmib-00.txt Would you like to send your comments and remarks, I'll accept them with great gratitude. The attached files are: RSTP.mib - the MIB draft rstp.txt the brief structure of MIB, as it is presented by snmptranslate utility of NET-SNMP. Now please allow me to make some comments. . 1. For many reasons it is convenient to have a possibility to configure an device for operation after nearest reset. For STP this possibility has a special importance, while a non-atomic setting of parameters may follow drastic and unwanted changes in the network. So, the configuration that will be applied after nearest reset we call 'NVRAM-configuration'. The configuration of the *operating now* device is called 'RUN configuration'. For this concept reflection we use an TEXTUAL-CONVENTION named "StorageType". All writeble tables are indexed with an object of this type. Sure, the alternative is to organize two separate tables: one for run and one for NVRAM. I have to point, that our old MIBs have been organized in such way. 2. For the same reason all objects are separated onto writeble and readable-only tables. Sure (and it is a purpose), the latter type of tables are not indexed with object of StorageType type. More of that, we consider such division as a method to make a MIB more understandable by network managers. 3. We inserted in the MIB so called rstpMSTiCfgTable as a preparation for MSTP support. Now it allows us to support RSTP instances per VLAN. 4. In RFC1493 the dot1dTpFdbTable is indexed only by dot1dTpFdbAddress. It doesn't allow to support 802.1q tagged properties of the Bridge may be I missed the new bridge MIB editions) . Our rstpMacTable is indexed by both rstpMacAddr and rstpMacVid (the latter one may be equal to 0 in the untagged case) Thank you for your tolerance & patience. I look forward to working with you in the cooperation, while as far as I see private MIBs design is the evil, and we have to avoid it as strong as possible.

Now the link between B1 and A1 fails :( Bridge B immediately detects the failure and assumes it is Root Bridge ( while it doesn't have any Alternate port) and starts to advertise via port B2 its own Priority Vector. The problem is on the Bridge C. It receives on Alternate port C2 SuperiorDesignate Msg BPDU. It is because 17.19.8:"Designated Bridge and Designated Port components of the received message priority vector are the same as those of the port priority vector and the message priority vector as a whole or any of the received timer parameter values (msgTimes -see 17.18.12) differ from those already held in port-Times (17.18.18). As a result port C2 goes to have Backup role. Then, switch B continues to send its BPDU, but for C these BPDU are "Inferior" or, in terms of PIM, the function rcbBpdu returns OtherMsg. This messages are discarded by PIM and there are 3 such messages (6 seconds !). Only after that the rcvdInfoWhile timer expires, port C2 is aged, becomes Designated, makes 'handshake' with port B2 (which becomes Root for the bridge B), and everything is OK. During about 6 seconds LAN, connected to C was disconnected from LAN, connected to B ! (Yes, I know, that in legacy STP such situation causes a delay 50 seconds: MaxAge + 2 * ForwardDelay). IMHO, there may take place an optimization, The idea: don't discard BPDU when 'OtherMsg', but to start some "upstream' handshake (in addition to RSTP 'downstream' handshake for rapid transition Designating port to Forwarding state). Such 'upstream' handshake may be started, when SuperiorDesignate message was recognized by another Times and message Priority Vector is worse than a stored one. This idea is similar to "Spanning-Tree Protocol's Backbone Fast Feature" of CISCO (see http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/473/18.html) What do you think about it ? Does this idea break the concept of 802.1w ? Is it in the plans of the society ? What if I start to design such 'handshake' ?

Yes, in .1w the topology becomes stable, fully and simply connected, but after only about 6 seconds. [Apropos, it seems to me, that the same problem is an explanation for case of http://www.ieee802.org/1/private/email/msg00348.html] My proposition is devoted to decrease this time. Why such handshake is critically timer dependent ? Why it is worse than the handshake, described in the second half of 17.19 and using variables like 'proposing', 'propose', 'sync', 'synced' and 'agreed' ?

Now, it seems to me, that my analysis is wrong "due" to my invalid spec. understanding and, hence, invalid implementation. So would you like to answer on follow questions: 1. Question about rcvBpdu and PIM. You wrote: Mick> This will cause C2 to accept the message (because B2 was Mick> Designated) and Mick> immediately override it (because C has information from C1-A1 Mick> that A is the Mick> Root), causing C2 to go from Alternate straight to Mick> Designated. As far as I see, C2 ignores this message: function rcvBpdu returns 'OtherMsg' because, as you correctly wrote, C has information from C1-A1 that A is the {better} Root). Now PIM simply jumps to CURRENT and updtRolesBridge() is not invoked. If it is correct, why C2 goes from Alternate straight to Designated ? If it is incorrect, where is my mistake ? 2. Question about SuperiorDesignatedMsg in rcvBpdu. Actually, In my implementation, rcvBpdu returns SuperiorDesignatedMsg, because 17.19.8: "Returns SuperiorDesignatedMsg if the received BPDU is an RSTP BPDU with a Designated Port Role, or a Config BPDU, and either the received message priority vector (see 17.4.2.2) is strictly better than the Port's port priority vector, or the Designated Bridge and Designated Port components of the received message priority vector are the same as those of the port priority vector and the message priority vector as a whole or any of the received timer parameter values (msgTimes - see 17.18.12) differ from those already held in portTmes (17.18.18)." In our case we have: a) it is 'RSTP BPDU with a Designated Port Role'; b) the same Designated Bridge and Designated Port; c) different msgTimes & portTimes. Where is my mistake here ? 3. Question about updtRolesBridge() I've received your message with extract from draft text that contributed to P802.1wD8 "RSTP Bug in updtBridgeRoles()". I would like to study it carefully; let me comment/ask about it later. For some [sad] reasons, I can't use your Visio Simulator. Instead it I use the simulator from http://sourceforge.net/projects/rstplib/ It has an advantage, that it is OpenSource one and I (as anyone) may freely trace and debug it :) But is has disadvantage, that it is based on my own implementation of 'rstplib', with my own bugs and flaws :( Again, thank you very much for the cooperation.

However that is not much to the point. If C2 was not previously Designated it will receive a message from the prior Designated Bridge for the B2-C2 claiming worse information for this link. This will cause C2 to accept the message (because B2 was Designated) and immediately override it (because C has information from C1-A1 that A is the Root), causng C2 to go from Alternate straight to Designated. Then C2 spits out a message with a Designated port that is not yet Forwarding, B gets this and accepts A as the Root and replies, C on receiving the reply goes Forwarding. Time to recover = Time for B to notice link down + Time for B to formulate and transmit message to C + Time for C to receive message from B + Time for C to formulate and send message to B + Time for B to receive mesage from C + Time for B to formulate and transmit message to C + Time for C to receive message from B + Time for C to change Port State to Forwarding Theoretical limit around about 4 * link/speed of light (includes original link failure) , practical limit set by process scheduling in B and C, between 4 and 8 scheduling times depending on the software architecture, but most importantly timer independent recovery. What we need to diagnose is why you believe C goes to Backup not Designated. I think this may be because of an ommission we have recognized in upftBridgeRoles() where an entire case was missed in the editing - where infoIs == Received but the designated priority is better than the port priority. In that case selectedRole should be set to DesignatedPort and updtInfo SET. Unfortunately the authors of implementations to date were just too familiar with what should happen in such a case, and the simulation used the pseudo-code used to derive the English in the standard - but without the case ommission. I recommend the use of the simulation to test out these and similar cases.

In .1w timers are only used to recover from lost mesages on point to point links to bridges/bridge ports that are functioning, in other words the speed of recovery does not depend on the timers (except in cases where the maximum message transmit limit kicks in). In back bone fast there are messages to test if a bridge is "still there", which means that some (not all) recoveries have to wait a time for non-response before taking appropriate action. This introduces a timer which in its normal case of operation can be "tweaked" to improve user performance - which opens the door to overzealous tweakers. All timers are evil, but some are more evil than others.

Why it is worse than the handshake, described in the second half of 17.19 and using variables like 'proposing', 'propose', 'sync', 'synced' and 'agreed' ?

The point was in Mick's important addition updtRolesBridge() : "... we are missing the case where infoIs == Received but the designated priority is better than the port priority. In that case selectedRole should be set to DesignatedPort and updtInfo SET..." Conclusions: 1. My function rcvBpdu works (and worked) fine, at least till now. It means, that in the relevant case it must recognize "SuperiorDesignateMsg". 2. The function updtRolesBridge has been drastically changed and I allow to myself to attach it (it may be useful to anyone). Anyway, this change I have committed in https://sourceforge.net/projects/rstplib/ 3. The reconfiguration is really rapid now. 4. Now I'm analyzing another problem, but it will be a new thread "Root port waits for 'slow' Designated Port in .1w " and I hope to get a similar help :) Again, thank to Mr. Mick Seaman very much ! I saw in 802.1y/D1 his proposition 'Z.11' is in state. If I may express my opinion - it should be accepted ASAP.

Title : Definitions of Managed Objects for Bridges with Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol and VLAN Classification Extensions Author(s) : E. Bell, V. Ngai Filename : draft-ietf-bridge-rstpmib-01.txt Pages : 29 Date : 26-Nov-01 This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB) for use with network management protocols in TCP/IP based internets. In particular, it defines three MIB modules for managing the new capabilities of MAC bridges defined by the IEEE P802.1t [802.1t], P802.1u [802.1u], P802.1v [802.1v] and P802.1w [802.1w] amendments to IEEE Std 802.1D-1998 for bridging between Local Area Network (LAN) segments. One MIB module defines objects for managing Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol, one for controlling Restricted VLAN Registration, and one for VLAN Classification.

The TxHoldCount is not configurable according to 802.1w, so I did not think it was necessary to include it in the MIB. Table 8-3 and Table 17-5 of 802.1w do not indicate a valid range for the TxHoldCount value, just defining the default value of 3. 802.1w 14.8.1.2 Set Bridge Protocol parameters does not include TxHoldCount in the list of input parameters. I shall raise this issue on the IEEE 802.1 WG email list, to see if we can get their views on whether this was the intention, or if TxHoldCount should really be configurable. Les...

Purpose ------- Participants will be able to test their own products for: 1. Conformance to the Bridge MIB and/or Ethernet-Like MIB, and 2.Iinteroperability with other implementations. Participants will also identify and clarify areas of confusion in the RFCs where implementations differ, and this feedback with be given to the IETF. Fred Baker, former IETF Chair, will officiate. Test Coverage ------------- Test coverage will include the following RFCs: RFC2665 "Definitions of Managed Objects for the Ethernet-like Interface Types" RFC2233 "The Interfaces Group MIB using SMIv2 " RFC2674 "Definitions of Managed Objects for Bridges with Traffic Classes, Multicast Filtering and Virtual LAN Extensions" RFC1493 "Definitions of Managed Objects for Bridges" Who is Invited -------------- Implementors, Developers, Q/A Engineers, and Testers who have implemented the Bridge MIB and/or the Ethernet-Like Interface MIB are invited to attend. What to Bring ------------- Attendees should bring a laptop computer with a 10/100 Ethernet card, and the product containing the SNMP agent with the Bridge MIB or Ethernet-like MIB. Test Network ------------ Design of the test network is underway and details will be available in December, 2001. InterWorking Labs will set up a test network and test station for each participating company. We will discuss results and findings each day. Everyone will be following a test plan. Confidentiality, Press ---------------------- All participants will be required to execute a Mutual Non-Disclosure Agreement insuring that they will not communicate information learned about other participants and their product implementations. This agreement may be found at http://www.iwl.com/Products/Legal in Acrobat format. No members of the press, sales, marketing, etc. will be allowed. Only individuals with specific development or testing responsibilities may participate. Proxy Network Software Engineers Available ------------------------------------------ If you would like to attend, but are prevented by travel restrictions and/or new security policies at your company, InterWorking Labs will find a local software engineer with a networking background who can participate on your behalf. Due to the downturn in the technology sector, many very capable and experienced network software engineers are between engagements, and will be happy to represent your product for the three day test summit. These engineers will be expected to communicate with you daily by phone or email, to send you bug reports, and keep you fully informed regarding developments with your product implementation. Bridge MIB Test Suite --------------------- Each participating vendor will receive a Beta copy of InterWorking Labs' new Bridge MIB Test Suite and Ethernet-Like MIB Test Suite for either Windows, Solaris, or Linux after the event. This will allow each participating company to continue regression testing in their own Q/A labs after the event for continuity. Chief Technical Officer of the Bridge MIB Test Summit ----------------------------------------------------- Fred Baker has worked in the telecommunications industry since 1978, building statistical multiplexors, terminal servers, bridges, and routers. At Cisco Systems, his primary interest areas include the improvement of Quality of Service for best effort and real time traffic, and the development of next generation routing and addressing for the Internet. In addition to product development, as a Cisco Fellow, he advises senior management of industry directions and appropriate corporate strategies. His principal standards contributions have been to the IETF, for which he served as IETF Chair in from March 1996 to March 2001. In that forum, he has contributed to Network Management, Routing, PPP and Frame Relay, the Integrated and Differentiated Services architectures, and the RSVP signaling protocol. He now serves on the IETF's Internet Architecture Board, and as a technical contributor. Price ----- Price for the Bridge MIB Test Summit is $2,995 per product and includes the test suite software, attendance by up to three engineers, connection for the test product, lunch each day, and a copy of the Bridge MIB Test Suite to use for regression testing in your lab. Companies who have more than one product, may register an additional product for $500. Payment must be received no later than January 19, 2002.
