Hi folks,
   At the July Plenary we have decided to put the 802.1aa mib back to its
original 802.1X state (or as close to it as we can achieve).  Those values
which are EAP or AAA related (counts of 'request ids' and 'response ids',
etc) will have their text changed to indicate that these values will be
filled by a functional entity other than the 802.1X PAE(the EAP entity for
instance).
   The reason for this issue is that .1aa clearly dilineates labor between
the 802.1X PAE and EAP and AAA.  The guiding principle in .1aa is that it is
to transport EAP and switch between controlled/uncontrolled port, not
interpret EAP, this means it should not look at the EAP header, only the
EAPOL header.  With this principle, the PAE is unable to keep some MIB
statistics and those need to be handled by the appropriate entities
(although in actual implementations it is very likely that one piece of
software is handling PAE and EAP on the authenticator, the standards are
separate).
   Our options were to:
       1.  Alter the existing MIB to get the closest values to the current
ones while only looking at the EAPOL header.
       2.  Remove all EAP related values and let the EAP group define their
own MIB.
       3.  Leave the MIB alone and let the text indicate that some values
need to be filled by entities other than the PAE.
   We chose #3 because we don't want to change the MIB for fear that the AP
and Bridge manufacturers may not update their MIBs to the new one in a
timely fashion and then management software will need to deal with these
different MIBs leading to potential interoperability issues.  The feeling is
that it took a long time for the industry to get the current MIB implemented
properly on their equipment, this MIB is extremely important to
troubleshooting and we don't want to add yet another potential complexity to
wireless access.  So, the MIB remains the same, the definition for the
values remain the same, but which functional entity is expected to fill some
of the values is made more clear.
   The changes to bring the .1aa MIB back toward the original .1X MIB should
be done soon.
   If you would like to review the changes please let me know and we can
send them out to you as soon as we get them done.  These will be 'beta'
changes as they will still need to go through the IEEE balloting process,
but it would allow you to track it and give input.
Thanks,
Jim B.

The changes to the MIB for IEEE 802.1aa include the corrections in
draft-ietf-bridge-8021x-02.txt.

There are also some other significant changes to be done for 802.1aa, due to
recent changes in the state machines and the managed objects that reflect
this.

Actually, I rather like that idea.  It certainly ensures that the
stuff in the information RFC can't get out-of-sync with the IEEE's
official version.  The only problem with that

http://www.ieee802.org/1/files/public/MIBs/802-1x-2001-mib.txt

has some problems that make it fail to compile (an illegal expression
for the OID assigned as the MODULE-IDENTITY value, non-ascii quotes,
and the absence of dot1xPaePortReauthenticate and
dot1xAuthSessionUserName from conformance groups).  The version in
the -01 draft corrected these problems.

I see that the IEEE is in fact working on a maintenance release of
802.1X (see http://www.ieee802.org/1/pages/802.1aa.html, or look for
the 802.1aa link under http://grouper.ieee.org/groups/802/1/), and
one of the work items is a MIB module update.  However, this is in
the private area and I don't know whether it includes the
corrections mentioned above (nor how else it might differ from the
current published version of the IEEE8021-PAE-MIB).

Maybe someone from 802.1aa could comment?

Hi folks,
   At the July Plenary we have decided to put the 802.1aa mib back to its
original 802.1X state (or as close to it as we can achieve).  Those values
which are EAP or AAA related (counts of 'request ids' and 'response ids',
etc) will have their text changed to indicate that these values will be
filled by a functional entity other than the 802.1X PAE(the EAP entity for
instance).
   The reason for this issue is that .1aa clearly dilineates labor between
the 802.1X PAE and EAP and AAA.  The guiding principle in .1aa is that it is
to transport EAP and switch between controlled/uncontrolled port, not
interpret EAP, this means it should not look at the EAP header, only the
EAPOL header.  With this principle, the PAE is unable to keep some MIB
statistics and those need to be handled by the appropriate entities
(although in actual implementations it is very likely that one piece of
software is handling PAE and EAP on the authenticator, the standards are
separate).
   Our options were to:
       1.  Alter the existing MIB to get the closest values to the current
ones while only looking at the EAPOL header.
       2.  Remove all EAP related values and let the EAP group define their
own MIB.
       3.  Leave the MIB alone and let the text indicate that some values
need to be filled by entities other than the PAE.
   We chose #3 because we don't want to change the MIB for fear that the AP
and Bridge manufacturers may not update their MIBs to the new one in a
timely fashion and then management software will need to deal with these
different MIBs leading to potential interoperability issues.  The feeling is
that it took a long time for the industry to get the current MIB implemented
properly on their equipment, this MIB is extremely important to
troubleshooting and we don't want to add yet another potential complexity to
wireless access.  So, the MIB remains the same, the definition for the
values remain the same, but which functional entity is expected to fill some
of the values is made more clear.
   The changes to bring the .1aa MIB back toward the original .1X MIB should
be done soon.
   If you would like to review the changes please let me know and we can
send them out to you as soon as we get them done.  These will be 'beta'
changes as they will still need to go through the IEEE balloting process,
but it would allow you to track it and give input.
Thanks,
Jim B.

The changes to the MIB for IEEE 802.1aa include the corrections in
draft-ietf-bridge-8021x-02.txt.

There are also some other significant changes to be done for 802.1aa, due to
recent changes in the state machines and the managed objects that reflect
this.
This work is not complete yet

Actually, I rather like that idea.  It certainly ensures that the
stuff in the information RFC can't get out-of-sync with the IEEE's
official version.  The only problem with that

http://www.ieee802.org/1/files/public/MIBs/802-1x-2001-mib.txt

has some problems that make it fail to compile (an illegal expression
for the OID assigned as the MODULE-IDENTITY value, non-ascii quotes,
and the absence of dot1xPaePortReauthenticate and
dot1xAuthSessionUserName from conformance groups).  The version in
the -01 draft corrected these problems.

I see that the IEEE is in fact working on a maintenance release of
802.1X (see http://www.ieee802.org/1/pages/802.1aa.html, or look for
the 802.1aa link under http://grouper.ieee.org/groups/802/1/), and
one of the work items is a MIB module update.  However, this is in
the private area and I don't know whether it includes the
corrections mentioned above (nor how else it might differ from the
current published version of the IEEE8021-PAE-MIB).

Maybe someone from 802.1aa could comment?

Sorry for the late response, I just got back in town.

I did question the copyright when I placed it in the mib, I guess the
benefit of this problem is that we will get the powers that be to decide how
to handle this in future rfc's.

In summary, so far, I am seeing 2 alternatives:
1  Change the copyright to fit what the IEEE lawyers and IETF lawyers
decide.
2: Remove the mib and reference the document in the IEEE website.

There are corrections that needed to happen on the mib to make it compile
(please ignore my screw up on the complile.).  If we want to point to the
IEEE website, those changes need to be fixed.

Point #1 still needs to be addressed on how we address this.  Once this is
addressed, I think that #1 will be the best soution.

K.C.

Indeed.  There has been some discussion of the issue on the ipr-wg
mailing list ... see the thread starting with

http://www1.ietf.org/mail-archive/working-groups/ipr-wg/current/msg01839.html

and in particular see

http://www1.ietf.org/mail-archive/working-groups/ipr-wg/current/msg01859.html

I agree with all of these points.

Hi All,

I had a look into the latest draft of Bridge MIB and I have a 
doubt regarding dot1dStpPortEnable.

1. What is the expected behaviour of the port in STP when the 
object is set to disabled?
2. What is the effect of setting this object on L2 and L3 Data 
forwarding ?

As I understand, dot1dStpPortEnable is to be used to 
enable/disable STP on a port. i.e STP calculation exclude this 
port. In case of RSTP, the port will be in Disabled/Discarding. Is 
it proper to apply STP roles/States to a port that is not under 
the control of STP? When we set this object to disabled, should 
this port stop forwarding Layer 2 packets?

What is the relation between dot1dStpPortEnable and ifMainStaus of 
the interface?

Thanks in advance,
Navaneeth.

So... what do we do for a common (or a few) common TCs.
Anyone wants to write a I-D for it?

It seems like we would define the VlanIDOrAny as (0..4095)
now and make 4095 mean "wildcard"

There is another MIB coming up in the IPCDN WG that wants
to define a VlanIDOrAny (not a TC, but the concetp) for
one of their objects. If we could give them guidance on 
what to do (soon), that would be great.

Thanks,
Bert
