           Management Information Base for IP Version 6:
                            ICMPv6 Group

Status of this Memo

 This document specifies an Internet standards track protocol for the
 Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for
 improvements.  Please refer to the current edition of the "Internet
 Official Protocol Standards" (STD 1) for the standardization state
 and status of this protocol.  Distribution of this memo is unlimited.

Abstract

 This document is one in the series of documents that define various
 MIB object groups for IPv6.  Specifically, the ICMPv6 group is
 defined in this document.
 This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB)
 for use with network management protocols in the IPv6-based
 internets.
 This document specifies a MIB module in a manner that is both
 compliant to the SNMPv2 SMI, and semantically identical to the peer
 SNMPv1 definitions.

1. The SNMPv2 Network Management Framework

 The SNMPv2 Network Management Framework presently consists of three
 major components.  They are:
 o the SMI, described in RFC 1902 [1] - the mechanisms used for
   describing and naming objects for the purpose of management.
 o the MIB-II, described in RFC 1213/STD 17 [3] - the core set of
   managed objects for the Internet suite of protocols.
 o RFC 1157/STD 15 [4] and RFC 1905 [5] which define two versions of the
   protocol used for network access to managed objects.
 The Framework permits new objects to be defined for the purpose of
 experimentation and evaluation.

1.1. 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.

2. Overview

 This document is the one in the series of documents that define
 various MIB object groups for IPv6. These groups are the basic unit of
 conformance: if the semantics of a group is applicable to an
 implementation, then it must implement all objects in that group.  For
 example, an implementation must implement the TCP group if and only if
 it implements the TCP over IPv6 protocol.  At minimum, implementations
 must implement the IPv6 General group [9] as well as the ICMPv6 group
 defined in this document.
 This document defines the ICMPv6 group of the IPv6 MIB.

6. Security Considerations

 Certain management information defined in this MIB may be considered
 sensitive in some network environments.
 Therefore, authentication of received SNMP requests and controlled
 access to management information should be employed in such
 environments.
