1. Introduction
This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB)
for use with network management protocols in the Internet community.
In particular, it describes managed objects used for managing
subnetworks which use the IEEE 802.5 Token Ring technology described
in 802.5 Token Ring Access Method and Physical Layer Specifications,
IEEE Standard 802.5-1989 [7]. This memo is a replacement for RFC
1231.
2. The SNMPv2 Network Management Framework
The SNMPv2 Network Management Framework consists of four major
components. They are:
o RFC1442 [1] which defines the SMI, the mechanisms used for
describing and naming objects for the purpose of management.
o STD 17, RFC1213 [2] defines MIB-II, the core set of managed
objects for the Internet suite of protocols.
o RFC1445 [3] which defines the administrative and other
architectural ASPects of the framework.
o RFC1448 [4] which defines the protocol used for network
access to managed objects.
The Framework permits new objects to be defined for the purpose of
eXPerimentation and evaluation.
2.1. Object Definitions
Managed objects are accessed via a virtual information store, termed
the Management Information Base or MIB. Objects in the MIB are
defined using the subset of Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1)
defined in the SMI. In particular, each object type is named by an
OBJECT IDENTIFIER, an administratively assigned name. The object
type together with an object instance serves to uniquely identify a
specific instantiation of the object. For human convenience, we
often use a textual string, termed the descriptor, to refer to the
object type.
3. Overview
This memo defines three tables: the 802.5 Interface Table, which
contains state and parameter information which is specific to 802.5
interfaces, the 802.5 Statistics Table, which contains 802.5
interface statistics, and the 802.5 Timer Table, which contains the
values of 802.5-defined timers. A managed system will have one entry
in the 802.5 Interface Table and one entry in the 802.5 Statistics
Table for each of its 802.5 interfaces. The 802.5 Timer Table is
obsolete, but its definition has been retained in this memo for
backward compatibility.
This memo also defines OBJECT IDENTIFIERs, some to identify interface
tests for use with the ifTestTable [6], and some to identify Token
Ring interface Chip Sets.
3.1. MAC Addresses
All representations of MAC addresses in this MIB Module use the
MacAddress textual convention [5] for which the address is in the
"canonical" order defined by IEEE 802.1a, i.e., as if it were
transmitted least significant bit first, even though 802.5 requires
MAC addresses to be transmitted most significant bit first.
16-bit addresses, if needed, are represented by setting their upper 4
octets to all zeros, i.e., AAFF would be represented as 00000000AAFF.
3.2. Relationship to RFC1213
When this MIB module is used in conjunction with the "old" (i.e.,
pre-RFC1573) interfaces group, the relationship between an 802.5
interface and an interface in the context of the RFC1213 is one-
to-one. That is, the value of an ifIndex object instance for an
802.5 interface can be directly used to identify corresponding
instances of the objects defined in this memo.
3.3. Relationship to RFC1573
RFC1573, the Interface MIB Evolution, requires that any MIB module
which is an adjunct of the Interface MIB, clarify specific areas
within the Interface MIB. These areas were intentionally left vague
in RFC1573 to avoid over constraining the MIB module, thereby
precluding management of certain media-types.
Section 3.3 of RFC1573 enumerates several areas which a media-
specific MIB module must clarify. Each of these areas is addressed
in a following subsection. The implementor is referred to RFC1573
in order to understand the general intent of these areas.
3.3.1. Layering Model
For the typical usage of this IEEE 802.5 MIB module, there will be no
sub-layers "above" or "below" the 802.5 interface. However, this MIB
module does not preclude such layering.
3.3.2. Virtual Circuits
802.5 does not support virtual circuits.
3.3.3. ifTestTable
This MIB module defines two tests for 802.5 interfaces: Insertion and
Loopback. Implementation of these tests is not required.
3.3.4. ifRcvAddressTable
The ifRcvAddressTable is defined to contains all MAC addresses,
unicast, multicast (group) and broadcast, for which an interface will
receive packets. For 802.5 interfaces, its use includes functional
addresses. The format of the address, contained in
ifRcvAddressAddress, is the same as for ifPhysAddress.
For functional addresses on a particular 802.5 interface, only one
ifRcvAddressTable entry is required. That entry is the one for the
address which has the functional address bit ANDed with the bit mask
of all functional addresses for which the interface will accept
frames.
3.3.5. ifPhysAddress
For an 802.5 interface, ifPhysAddress contains the interface"s IEEE
MAC address, stored as an octet string of length 6, in IEEE 802.1a
"canonical" order, i.e., the Group Bit is positioned as the low-order
bit (0x01) of the first octet.
3.3.6. ifType
The objects defined in this memo apply to each interface for which
the ifType has the value:
iso88025-tokenRing(9)

DESCRIPTION
"The value of this object identifies the

the same interface."
::= { dot5Entry 1 }
dot5Commands OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX INTEGER {
noop(1),
open(2),
reset(3),
close(4)
}
MAX-ACCESS read-write
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"When this object is set to the value of
open(2), the station should go into the
open state. The progress and success of
the open is given by the values of the
objects dot5RingState and
dot5RingOpenStatus.
When this object is set to the value
of reset(3), then the station should do
a reset. On a reset, all MIB counters
should retain their values, if possible.
Other side affects are dependent on the
hardware chip set.
When this object is set to the value
of close(4), the station should go into
the stopped state by removing itself
from the ring.
Setting this object to a value of
noop(1) has no effect.
When read, this object always has a
value of noop(1).
The open(2) and close(4) values
correspond to the up(1) and down(2) values
of MIB-II"s ifAdminStatus and ifOperStatus,
i.e., the setting of ifAdminStatus and
dot5Commands affects the values of both

dot5RingOpenStatus objects provide for
debugging problems when the station
can not even enter the ring.

different to the current ring-speed which is
given by MIB-II"s ifSpeed. For interfaces
which do not support changing ring-speed,

APPENDIX A - Changes from RFC1231
This memo has the following differences from RFC1231:
(1) This memo is formatted using the SNMPv2 SMI.
(2) The relationship of the "open" and "close" states of
dot5Commands to the value of ifAdminStatus has been
clarified. In particular, the setting of one affects the
value of the other.
(3) The relationship dot5RingSpeed and ifSpeed has been
clarified. In particular, ifSpeed indicates the current
ring-speed; dot5RingSpeed indicates the ring-speed at the
next insertion into the ring. If the interface doesn"t
support changing ring-speed, then dot5RingSpeed can only be
set to its current value. When dot5RingSpeed has the value
"unknown(1)", the ring-speed is to be set to the ring"s
actual ring-speed.
(4) Write-access to dot5ActMonParticipate is not required, and a
change to the value of dot5ActMonParticipate does not take
effect until the next Active Monitor election.
(5) Write-access to dot5Functional is not required.
(6) A new object, dot5LastBeaconSent has been defined to contain
the timestamp of the last beacon frame sent.
(7) The dot5TimerTable has been designated as obsolete.
(8) Text has been added describing the applicability of RFC1573
[6] to 802.5 interfaces.
(9) Other minor editorial changes.
