 For a detailed overview of the documents that describe the current
 Internet-Standard Management Framework, please refer to Section 7 of
 RFC 3410 [RFC3410].  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 a MIB module that is compliant to the SMIv2,
 which is described in STD 58, RFC 2578 [RFC2578]; STD 58, RFC 2579
 [RFC2579]; and STD 58, RFC 2580 [RFC2580].

2.2. EPON Architecture Highlights

2.2.1. Introduction

 The EPON standard, as defined in [802.3ah], defines the physical
 media (Layer 1) and media access (Layer 2) of the EPON interface.
 The EPON is a variant of the Gigabit Ethernet protocol for the
 Optical Access.  The Optical Access topology is based on passive
 optical splitting topology.  The link of a Passive Optical Network
 (PON) is based on a single, shared optical fiber with passive optical
 splitters dividing the single fiber into separate subscribers.
 The Optical Line Terminal (OLT) is the server unit of the network,
 located at the Central Office (CO).
 The Optical Network Unit (ONU) is the client unit of the network,
 located at the Customer Premises Equipment (CPE).
 The following diagram describes the PON topology:

 The IEEE layering architecture of an EPON interface is defined in the
 diagram of Figure 56.2 [802.3ah].  The following clauses in the
 [802.3ah] define the corresponding layers of an EPON interface:
 clause 30 - Management
 clause 60 - PMD for EPON media (Burst PMD)
 clause 64 - MPCP (Multi-Point Control Protocol) - defines the Multi-
 Point architecture, and control protocol for the media access of
 EPON.
 clause 65 -
 a) Virtual links definition for the EPON
 b) FEC
 c) PMA for the EPON.

2.2.2. Principles of Operation

 The specification of the EPON interface is based on the specification
 of the gigabit Ethernet interface as described in [802.3], clauses 35
 and 36.  The Ethernet MAC is working in gigabit rate.  The media
 interface to the MAC is through the GMII interface, as described in
 clause 35, and the PCS layer is based on the gigabit Ethernet PCS as
 described in clause 36.  The special EPON layers are added to the
 Ethernet layering in the following places:
 The MPCP is placed in the MAC control layer, providing the EPON
 control protocol.  The Emulation layer, located at the RS
 (Reconciliation Sublayer), creates virtual private path to each ONU.
 The FEC layer is located between the PCS and PMA layers, enhancing
 reach and split performance of the optical link.

2.2.3. The Physical Media

 The physical link is a fiber optical link.  The OLT and ONUs are
 connected through passive optical splitters.  Downlink denotes the
 transmission from the OLT to the ONUs.  Uplink denotes the
 transmission from the ONUs to the OLT.  Uplink and downlink are
 multiplexed using separated wavelengths on the same fiber.  The
 downlink is a broadcast medium where the OLT transmits the data to
 all ONUs.  The uplink is a shared transmission medium for all of the
 ONUs.  The uplink access is based on time division multiplexing (TDM)
 and the management of the TDM media access is defined by the Multi-

Khermosh Standards Track [Page 7] RFC 4837 Managed Objects of EPON July 2007

 Point Control Protocol (MPCP).  The MPCP is a control protocol based
 on an inband packet messaging.  The OLT sends control messages (GATE
 messages) allowing ONUs to transmit, defining when the transmission
 occurs and what is its duration.  These messages define the
 transmission order and the amount of BW for each ONU.  A scheduling
 algorithm at the OLT, which is not defined in the [802.3ah], is
 responsible for allocating the BW and controlling the delay of each
 ONU according to its SLA.

2.2.4. PMD Specifications

 PMD specifications select the same optical wavelength plan as the
 [ITU-T.G.983].  The transceivers are derivatives of existing Ethernet
 optical transceivers, with dual wavelength on a single fiber, and
 extended burst capabilities for the uplink.  The uplink burst
 capability is the burst transmission functionality for the ONUs and
 burst reception functionality for the OLT.  The [802.3ah] selected
 very relaxed burst parameters to reduce the device cost of EPON
 products.

2.2.5. Point-to-Point Emulation

 The downstream is a broadcast link, which means that the OLT
 transmission is shared for all ONUs.  The sharing of the transmission
 of the OLT has some negative privacy aspects and should be limited to
 broadcast traffic in nature only.  The traffic dedicated to each ONU
 should not be shared.  The solution provided by [802.3ah] is to
 partition the EPON link, in a virtual manner, between the ONUs.  Each
 ONU has a dedicated virtual link to the OLT.  The [802.3ah] also
 defines an additional link for broadcast transmission.  The medium
 becomes an aggregation of point-to-point tunnels.  The OLT cannot
 preserve its EPON interface as a single interface connected to N
 devices (following the properties of the physical interface).  The
 EPON interface of the OLT is partitioned into separate virtual
 interfaces; an interface for each virtual link.  Hence, the OLT
 behaves like a device with N virtual ports (and an additional port
 for the broadcast transmission).  The additional single-copy-
 broadcast channel (tagged as all one LLID) is added to allow the
 broadcast transmission within a single copy to all ONUs, preserving
 the inherent advantage of BW efficiency of the PON shared media.  The
 ONUs filter the downlink traffic that is not intended for their
 reception, according to the virtual link marking.  An LLID tag is
 attached at the preamble of the Ethernet packet denoting the virtual
 link.  The LLID marks the destination port in the downstream and
 source port in the upstream.

Khermosh Standards Track [Page 8] RFC 4837 Managed Objects of EPON July 2007

 The virtual links concept is also used to avoid a violation of the
 [802.1d] bridging rules for peer-to-peer traffic in the PON.  Peer-
 to-peer traffic is traffic between ONUs in the same PON.  The OLT
 cannot preserve the EPON interface as a single interface, connected
 to N devices, and allow traffic between these devices without
 violating the bridging rules.  The source address and destination
 address of the peer-to-peer traffic are behind the same port and
 therefore the traffic should be discarded.  The separation of the
 ONUs into virtual links solves this issue.  The OLT has N virtual
 ports for the single physical EPON port.  A bridge sees a single MAC
 Client for every link pair.
 The private paths concept solves the networking problems and provides
 subscriber isolation.
 As the tunneling is only a virtual tunneling, there is a single
 physical interface and a single physical layer for the device so that
 some attributes are shared.  For example, the interface has a single
 local MAC address.
 The virtual tunneling for an OLT with 3 ONUs is illustrated in the
 following diagram.

2.2.6. Principles of the MPCP

 The EPON standard defines a media access control of an optical Access
 network.  The Access network has some substantial differences from
 the legacy LAN for which the Ethernet was designed.  The differences
 lie mainly in the provisioning of the network.  An Access network is
 an administrated environment, with an operator providing the service
 and subscribers consuming it.  The operator is controlling the
 network and managing its traffic.  For instance, BW is controlled and
 subscribers are billed for services.  The MPCP protocol divides the
 Ethernet interfaces into two unequal types of network units.  The
 first interface is an OLT interface, which is a server unit,
 controlling the network.  The second interface is an ONU interface,
 which is a client unit, participating in the network.

Khermosh Standards Track [Page 10] RFC 4837 Managed Objects of EPON July 2007

 The OLT, which is the server unit, manages the network.  The MPCP
 controls the TDM transmission of the uplink.  The MPCP is implemented
 at the MAC control layer and the MPCP messages are MAC control
 messages using the 0x8808 Ethertype.  These messages are not
 forwarded out of the MAC.
 A concept of time must exist in the protocol in order to schedule the
 uplink transmission.  A timestamp, which is set by the OLT and
 synchronized between the network units, is passed through the MPCP
 messages.  The timestamp is also used to measure the RTT of each ONU.
 RTT is compensated by the OLT in the generation of the grants for the
 uplink transmission.  The difference of incoming timestamp to local
 time allows the OLT to calculate the RTT.  RTT compensation is needed
 as the RTT in an Access network can have a significant value.  The
 standard allows the network to reach a 20 km distance, which is
 equivalent to a 200 usec RTT (25 Kbytes of data).
 The TDM control is done using GATE messages.  These messages define,
 for each ONU, the time for transmission and the length of
 transmission.  The RTT is reduced from the transmission time in the
 GATE message to shift the transmission time of the ONU in the
 opposite direction.
 A scheduling algorithm at the OLT, which is not defined in the
 [802.3ah], is responsible for dividing the BW and controlling the
 transmission delay of each ONU according to its SLA.  The MPCP
 defines a closed loop operation in order for this algorithm to be
 efficient.  The MPCP allows the ONUs to report on the amount of BW
 they require for transmission using a special REPORT message.  This
 allows allocating BW to an ONU only when requested, relying on the
 statistical burst property of the traffic, and allowing different
 peak BW for different ONUs at different times; hence, allowing
 oversubscription of the BW.  The REPORT message reports the amount of
 data waiting in the ONU queues.
 In addition, the MPCP defines a protocol of auto-discovery and
 registration of ONUs.

Khermosh Standards Track [Page 11] RFC 4837 Managed Objects of EPON July 2007

 The registration process is defined in the diagram below:

     |                                            |
 A new ONU requests to register (sends a REG_REQUEST message) in a
 special discovery grant, allocated for that by the OLT.  During that
 time, more than one ONU might try to register.  A collision in
 transmission might occur, as the RTT of the new ONUs is not yet
 known.  A random backoff mechanism of the transmission is used to
 schedule the following registration requests to avoid these
 collisions.  When the OLT receives a REG_REQUEST message of an ONU
 and approves this ONU, then it sends a REGISTER message to this ONU
 defining its LLID.  From that point, the ONU transmission is
 scheduled by its LLID, knowing the RTT, and no collision can occur.
 The ONU replies with a REGISTER_ACK message and the registration
 process of the MPCP ends.  Higher layer protocols may be needed to
 authenticate the ONU and allow it to participate in the network.

2.2.7. Forward Error Correction (FEC)

 The FEC is defined to enhance the link budget of the PON.  As each
 splitter attenuates the optical signal, the number of the splits and
 the distance are limited by the link budget.  Hence an FEC that

 improves the link budget has a benefit.  The FEC code used is the
 RS(239,255,8), similar to the FEC code in [ITU-T.G.975], improving
 the BER from 1E-4 to 1E-12.
 The FEC parity encapsulation is based on the framing of the Ethernet
 packet.  The Ethernet packets are spaced by MAC rate adaptation, and
 the parity bytes are inserted after the packet in the provided space.
 As the start and end of packet codewords also define the FEC
 boundaries, and they are outside the FEC protection, they are
 replaced by a series of symbols to reduce their vulnerability to
 errors.
 The following diagram presents an FEC-protected frame:
 +-------------------------------------------------------------------+
 |       |              |           |     |       |          |       |
 | S_FEC | Preamble/SFD |   Frame   | FCS | T_FEC |  Parity  | T_FEC |
 |       |              |           |     |       |          |       |
 +-------------------------------------------------------------------+
 The FEC is added in a separate layer between the PCS and PMA layers
 of the [802.3].
 The FEC layer introduces a fixed delay in receive path and transmit
 path.
 The FEC layer is optional.

2.3. Management Architecture

 Each one of the EPON layers is accompanied by a management interface
 that is controlled through clause 30 of the [802.3ah].  As the
 [802.3ah] specification may be used for different applications, and
 some of the clauses may be used separately, the IEEE management
 clause allocates for each one of them a separate package.  The MIB
 document follows this partition.

Khermosh Standards Track [Page 13] RFC 4837 Managed Objects of EPON July 2007

 The following diagram presents the relation of the MIB groups to the
 [802.3ah] layers:

 The association is straightforward for the ONU interface.  There is
 one logical and one physical interface, and a single copy exists for
 each layer that can be remotely queried by the OLT.
 At the OLT there is a single physical interface and N virtual
 interfaces for the virtual links of the ONUs (and another virtual
 interface for the broadcast virtual link).  As can be seen from the
 layering diagram above, the MAC layer is virtually duplicated.
 Therefore, in this document it was selected that the management of a
 virtual interface is like a physical interface, an interface index is
 allocated for each one of the virtual links, and an additional
 interface index is allocated for the OLT.

Khermosh Standards Track [Page 14] RFC 4837 Managed Objects of EPON July 2007

 To illustrate the interface modeling consider two devices; the first
 device has two physical interfaces, is typically located at a
 consumer's site, and is called an "ONU modem".
 An "ONU modem" is shown in the figure below:
  1. ——-

ONU interface | ONU | 10 megabit interface

  1. ————-| modem |——————–
    1. ——–
 This device would have 3 entries in the IF table, and one IF stack
 entry; for example:
 ifIndex=1 - interface for 10 megabit interface
 ifIndex=2 - interface for the optical interface
 ifIndex=200 - interface for the ONU interface
 And then in the IF stack table:
 ifStackHigherLayer=200, ifStackLowerLayer=2 - map between the
 physical and the ONU
 The second device has three physical interfaces, is typically located
 at the provider's site, and may be called a "headend".
 A "headend" is shown in the figure below:
  1. ——–

1st OLT interface | Head | gigE interface

  1. —————–| end |——————–

| |

  1. —————–| |

2nd OLT interface | |

  1. ——–

Khermosh Standards Track [Page 15] RFC 4837 Managed Objects of EPON July 2007

 This device would have 5 entries (when there are no attached ONUs) in
 the IF table, for example:
 ifIndex=1 - interface for gigE interface
 ifIndex=2 - interface for 1st optical interface
 ifIndex=3 - interface for 2nd optical interface
 ifIndex=265535 - interface for the 1st OLT broadcast interface
 ifIndex=365535 - interface for the 2nd OLT broadcast interface
 And then in the IF stack table:
 ifStackHigherLayer=265535, ifStackLowerLayer=2 - map between the 1st
 physical and its broadcast interface
 ifStackHigherLayer=365535, ifStackLowerLayer=3 - map between the 2nd
 physical and its broadcast interface
 If two ONUs connected to the first OLT interface, then for example,
 the following entries would be added to the IF table:
 ifIndex=200001 - interface for the 1st ONU of 1st OLT
 ifIndex=200002 - interface for the 2nd ONU of 1st OLT
 And in the IF stack table:
 ifStackHigherLayer=200001, ifStackLowerLayer=2 - map between the 1st
 physical and 1st ONU
 ifStackHigherLayer=200002, ifStackLowerLayer=2 - map between the 1st
 physical and 2nd ONU
 For each physical interface, there would be an entry (ifIndex) in the
 tables of the interface MIB module [RFC2863], MAU MIB module
 [RFC4836], and Etherlike MIB module [RFC3635].  Additionally, there
 would be entries (ifIndexes) for the virtual interfaces of the OLT
 interface.  The justification for the additional allocation of
 indexes is that the virtual interfaces are quite well distinguished,
 as they connect different physical ONUs from the OLT side.  For
 instance, there is a meaning for separate bad frames counter or bad
 octets counter for each virtual link, as the ONUs can be differently
 distanced.  This is quite similar to a case of separate physical
 interfaces.

Khermosh Standards Track [Page 16] RFC 4837 Managed Objects of EPON July 2007

 The same partition concept exists for the MIB module of this
 document.  Each row in the tables are indexed according to the
 ifIndex; specifically, there is a row for each virtual link.  There
 are some control objects that are shared and are the same for the
 virtual interfaces (and they should have the same value for each
 ifIndex), but most of the objects have different values for N+1
 logical interfaces at the OLT.  This is done for each MIB group.  It
 is a bit different from the [802.3ah] layering diagram, which
 presents the P2MP layer as a single layer, while duplicating the MAC
 and MAC client layers (please see the diagram above).  However, from
 a management perspective, it is more convenient and neat to partition
 the management of the layers for the virtual links, as the atomic
 managed entity is the virtual link.  It is also convenient to use the
 interface index of the virtual link for that purpose, as it is
 already used to index the rows of the virtual links at the Interface,
 MAU, and etherLike interfaces MIBs.

3. MIB Structure

 This document defines the DOT3 EPON MIB module.  The DOT3 EPON MIB
 module defines the objects used for management of the [802.3ah]
 Point-to-Multipoint (P2MP) interfaces.  These MIB objects are
 included in four groups.
 i) The Multi-Point Control Protocol (MPCP) MIB objects - MIB objects
 related to [802.3ah], clause 64, Multi-Point Control Protocol
 attributes.  The following tables are presented in this group:
 The dot3MpcpControlTable defines the objects used for the
 configuration and status indication, which are per logical link, of
 MPCP compliant interfaces.
 The dot3MpcpStatTable defines the statistics objects that are per
 logical link, of MPCP compliant interfaces.
 The operational mode of an OLT/ONU for the tables is defined by the
 dot3MpcpMode object in the dot3MpcpControlTable.
 ii) The OMPEmulation MIB objects - MIB objects related to [802.3ah],
 clause 65, point-to-point emulation attributes.  The following tables
 are presented in this group:
 The dot3OmpEmulationTable defines the objects used for the
 configuration and status indication, which are per logical links, of
 OMPEmulation compliant interfaces.
 The dot3OmpEmulationStatTable defines the statistics objects that are
 per logical link, of OMPEmulation compliant interfaces.

Khermosh Standards Track [Page 17] RFC 4837 Managed Objects of EPON July 2007

 The operational mode of an OLT/ONU for the tables is defined by the
 dot3OmpEmulationType object in the dot3OmpEmulationTable.
 iii) The FEC MIB objects - MIB objects related to [802.3ah], clause
 60 and clause 65, EPON FEC attributes.  The following table is
 presented in this group:
 The dot3EponFecTable defines the objects used for the configuration
 and status indication, which are per logical link, of FEC EPON
 compliant interfaces.
 iv) The EPON extended package MIB objects - MIB objects used for
 configuration and status indication with extended capabilities of the
 EPON interfaces.  The following tables are presented in this group:
 The dot3ExtPkgControlTable defines the objects, which are per logical
 link, used for the configuration and status indication of EPON
 compliant interfaces.
 The dot3ExtPkgQueueTable defines the objects, which are per logical
 link, and per queue, used for the configuration and status indication
 of the ONU queues reported in the MPCP REPORT message, of EPON
 compliant interfaces.
 The dot3ExtPkgQueueSetsTable defines the objects, which are per
 logical link, per queue, and per queue_set, used for the
 configuration and status indication of the ONU queue_sets reported in
 the MPCP REPORT message, of EPON compliant interfaces.
 The dot3ExtPkgOptIfTable defines the objects, which are per logical
 link, used for the control and status indication of the optical
 interface of EPON compliant interfaces.
 As described in the architecture section, each row in the tables is
 indexed according to the ifIndex; specifically, there is a row for
 each virtual link.  There are a few control objects that are shared
 and have the same value for the virtual interfaces (and they should
 have the same value for each ifIndex), but most of the objects have
 different values for N+1 logical interfaces at the OLT.  This is done
 for each MIB group.  It is a bit different from the [802.3ah]
 layering diagram, which presents the P2MP layer as a single layer
 while duplicating the MAC and MAC client layers.  However, from a
 management perspective, it is more convenient and neat to partition
 the management of the layers for the virtual links, as the atomic
 managed entity is the virtual link.  It is also convenient to use the
 interface index of the virtual link for that purpose, as it is
 already used to index the rows of the virtual links at the Interface,
 MAU, and etherLike interfaces MIBs.

4. Relation to Other MIB Modules

4.1. Relation to the Interfaces MIB and Ethernet-like Interfaces MIB

 EPON interface is a kind of Ether-like interface.  This MIB module
 extends the objects of the Interface MIB and the Ether-like
 Interfaces MIB for an EPON type interface.
 Implementing this module therefore MUST require implementation of the
 Interfaces MIB module [RFC2863] and the Ethernet-like Interfaces MIB
 module [RFC3635].
 Thus, each managed EPON interface would have a corresponding entry in
 the mandatory tables of the Ether-like MIB module found in [RFC3635],
 and likewise in the tables of the Interface MIB module found in
 [RFC2863].  Also each managed virtual EPON interface would have a
 corresponding entry in the mandatory tables of the Ether-like MIB
 module found in [RFC3635], and likewise in the tables of the
 Interface MIB module found in [RFC2863] with a dedicated ifIndex for
 this interface.

Khermosh Standards Track [Page 22] RFC 4837 Managed Objects of EPON July 2007

 In this document, there is no replication of the objects from these
 MIBs.  Therefore, for instance, the document is defining
 dot3MpcpRemoteMACAddress only while assuming that the local MAC
 address object is already defined in [RFC3635].
 The interface MIB module [RFC2863] defines the interface index
 (ifIndex).  Interface Index, as specified in [RFC2863], is used in
 this MIB Module as an index to the EPON MIB tables.  The ifIndex is
 used to denote the physical interface and the virtual link interfaces
 at the OLT.  The OLT interface and the virtual link interfaces are
 stacked using the ifStack table defined in [RFC2863], and the
 ifInvStack defined in [RFC2864].  The OLT interface is the lower
 layer of all other interfaces associated with the virtual links.
 This document defines the specific EPON objects of an ONU interface
 and an OLT interface.  Information in the tables is per LLID.  The
 rows in the EPON MIB tables referring to the LLIDs are denoted with
 the corresponding ifIndexes of the virtual link interfaces.
 Please note that each virtual interface does not have a different
 physical MAC address at the OLT, as the physical interface is the
 same.  It is specified in the [802.3ah], Section 64.1.2.  The
 corresponding object of the Ether-like interface MIB is duplicated
 for all the virtual interfaces.
 For example, the values of the Interface MIB objects are presented in
 the following tables, for an OLT with 3 registered ONUs:

Khermosh Standards Track [Page 23] RFC 4837 Managed Objects of EPON July 2007

 The table below presents the objects of the Interface MIB of an ONU
 in working mode.

                                Table 8

 The following values will be set in the ifStack and ifInvStack tables

 ifStackHigherLayer=200001, ifStackLowerLayer=2 - map between the OLT

 ifStackHigherLayer=200002, ifStackLowerLayer=2 - map between the OLT
 physical interface and its virtual interface of the 2nd ONU
 ifStackHigherLayer=200003, ifStackLowerLayer=2 - map between the OLT
 physical interface and its virtual interface of the 3rd ONU
 ifInvStackTable:
 ifStackLowerLayer=2, ifStackHigherLayer=265535, - map between the
 broadcast interface of the OLT and the OLT physical interface
 ifStackLowerLayer=2, ifStackHigherLayer=200001 - map between the OLT
 virtual interface of the 1st ONU and the OLT physical interface
 ifStackLowerLayer=2, ifStackHigherLayer=200002 - map between the OLT
 virtual interface of the 2nd ONU and the OLT physical interface
 ifStackLowerLayer=2, ifStackHigherLayer=200003 - map between the OLT
 virtual interface of the 3rd ONU and the OLT physical interface

Khermosh Standards Track [Page 28] RFC 4837 Managed Objects of EPON July 2007

 The rows for the ONU interface, the OLT interface, and the OLT
 broadcast interface are created in initialization.
 The creation of a row for a virtual link is done when the virtual
 link is established (ONU registers), and deletion is done when the
 virtual link is deleted (ONU deregisters).
 The EPON MIB module also extends the Interface MIB module with a set
 of counters, which are specific for the EPON interface.  The EPON MIB
 module implements the same handling of the counters when the
 operation of the interface starts or stops.  The interface MIB
 document describes the possible behavior of counters when an
 interface is re-initialized using the ifCounterDiscontinuityTime
 indicator, indicating the discontinuity of the counters.  Please see
 [RFC2863], Section 3.1.5, page 11 for more information.  The counters
 of the EPON MIB should be handled in a similar manner.

4.2. Relation to the IEEE 802.3 MAU MIBs

 The MAU types of the EPON Interface are defined in the amended MAU
 MIB document.  This document assumes the implementation of the MAU
 MIB for this purpose and does not repeat the EPON MAU types.
 Therefore, implementing this module MUST require implementation of
 the MAU-MIB module [RFC4836].
 The handling of the ifMAU tables for the EPON case is similar to the
 handling described in the former section for the Interface and Ether-
 like interface MIBs.  A single row exists for the ONU in the
 ifMauTable.  A row for each virtual link (N+1 rows) exists at the
 OLT, with a separate value of ifMauIfIndex for each virtual link.
 As specified above, the rows for the ONU interface, the OLT
 interface, and the OLT broadcast interface are created in
 initialization.
 The creation of a row for a virtual link is done when the virtual
 link is established (ONU registers), and deletion is done when the
 virtual link is deleted (ONU deregisters).

4.3. Relation to the EFM OAM MIB

 The EPON interfaces are aimed to the optical access networks and most
 probably will be accompanied with the implementation of the OAM
 section of the [802.3ah].  Therefore, the EFM OAM MIB module
 [RFC4878] MAY be implemented when this MIB module is implemented
 defining managed objects for the OAM layer that are complementary to
 the EFM EPON MIB module.  As the OAM is defined for a point-to-point
 link it is implemented in this case using the virtual links that are

Khermosh Standards Track [Page 29] RFC 4837 Managed Objects of EPON July 2007

 defined for the P2MP network, so that an instance is held for each
 Logical Link Identifier (LLID) of the EPON.  The corresponding
 ifIndex of the virtual link is used as the ifIndex of the tables of
 the OAM MIB module for this purpose.

4.4. Relation to the Bridge MIB

 It is very probable that an EPON OLT will implement a bridging
 functionality above the EPON interface layer, bridging between the
 EPON users and the network.  Bridge functionality is specified at
 [802.1d].  In this scenario, the virtual ports of the EPON are
 corresponding to the virtual bridge ports.  There is a direct mapping
 between the bridge ports and the LLIDs, which are virtual EPON
 channels.
 Therefore, the bridge MIB modules ([RFC4188] and [RFC1525]) MAY be
 implemented when the EFM EPON MIB module is implemented for an EPON
 OLT, defining managed objects for the bridge layer.
 The values of dot1dBasePortIfIndex would correspond to the ifIndex of
 the virtual port (1 for LLID1, 2 for LLID2, etc.).
 The broadcast virtual EPON interface of the OLT has no direct mapping
 to a virtual bridge port as it is not port specific but used for
 broadcast traffic.

             transmission of the ONU and data is gathered there until
             the ONU is granted for transmission.
             The management table of the queues is added here mainly
             to control the reporting and to gather some statistics
             of their operation.  This table is not duplicating
             existing management objects of bridging queues,
             specified in [802.1d], since the existence of a

             The 'Queue report' field reports the occupancy of each
             uplink transmission queue.
             The number of queue sets defines the number of the
             reported sets, as would be explained in the description
             of the dot3ExtPkgQueueSetsTable table.  For each set the
             report bitmap defines which queue is present in the
             report, meaning that although the MPCP REPORT message
             can report up to 8 queues in a REPORT message, the
             actual number is flexible.  The Queue table has a
             variable size that is limited by the
             dot3ExtPkgObjectReportMaximumNumQueues object, as an
             ONU can have fewer queues to report.
             The entries in the table are control and status
             indication objects for managing the queues of an EPON
             interface that are gathered in an extended package as
             an addition to the objects that are based on the
             [802.3ah] attributes.
             Each object has a row for every virtual link and for
             every queue in the report.
             The LLID field, as defined in the [802.3ah], is a 2-byte
             register (15-bit field and a broadcast bit) limiting the

Khermosh Standards Track [Page 66] RFC 4837 Managed Objects of EPON July 2007

             number of virtual links to 32768.  Typically the number
             of expected virtual links in a PON is like the number of
             ONUs, which is 32-64, plus an additional entry for
             broadcast LLID (with a value of 0xffff).
             The number of queues is between 0 and 7 and limited by
             dot3ExtPkgObjectReportMaximumNumQueues."

             As can be seen from the message format, the ONU
             interface reports of the status of up to 8 queues

             and it can report in a single MPCP REPORT message

             The number of queue_sets defines the number of the
             reported sets, and it can reach a value of up to 8.
             It means that an ONU can hold a variable number of
             sets between 0 and 7.
             The dot3ExtPkgQueueSetsTable table has a variable
             queue_set size that is limited by the
             dot3ExtPkgObjectReportMaximumNumThreshold object as an
             ONU can have fewer queue_sets to report.
             The 'Queue report' field reports the occupancy of each
             uplink transmission queue.  The queue_sets can be used to
             report the occupancy of the queues in a few levels as to
             allow granting, in an accurate manner, of only part of
             the data available in the queues.  A Threshold is
             defined for each queue_set to define the level of the
             queue that is counted for the report of the occupancy.
             The threshold is reflected in the queue_set table by the
             dot3ExtPkgObjectReportThreshold object.
             For each queue set, the report bitmap defines which
             queues are present in the report, meaning that
             although the MPCP REPORT message can report of up to 8
             queues in a REPORT message, the actual number is
             flexible.
             The dot3ExtPkgQueueSetsTable table has a variable queue
             size that is limited by the
             dot3ExtPkgObjectReportMaximumNumQueues object as an ONU
             can have fewer queues to report.
             Each object has a row for every virtual link, for each
             queue in the report and for each queue_set in the queue.
             The LLID field, as defined in the [802.3ah], is a 2-byte
             register (15-bit field and a broadcast bit) limiting the
             number of virtual links to 32768.  Typically the number
             of expected virtual links in a PON is like the number of
             ONUs, which is 32-64, plus an additional entry for
             broadcast LLID (with a value of 0xffff).
             The number of queues is between 0 and 7 and limited by
             dot3ExtPkgObjectReportMaximumNumQueues.
             The number of queues_sets is between 0 and 7 and limited

             The reason for having a separate row for each virtual

7. IANA Considerations

 IANA has allocated a single object identifier for the MODULE-IDENTITY
 of the DOT3-EPON-MIB module under the MIB-2 tree.
 The MIB module in this document uses the following IANA-assigned
 OBJECT IDENTIFIER values recorded in the SMI Numbers registry:
       Descriptor        OBJECT IDENTIFIER value
       ----------        -----------------------
       dot3EponMIB        { mib-2 155 }

9. Security Considerations

 There are number of managed objects defined in this MIB module that
 have a MAX-ACCESS clause of read-write or read-create.  Writing to
 these objects can have potentially disruptive effects on network
 operation, including:
 Changing dot3MpcpAdminState state can lead to disabling the
 Multi-Point Control Protocol on the respective interface, leading to
 the interruption of service for the users connected to the respective
 EPON interface.
 Changing dot3EponFecMode state can lead to disabling the Forward
 Error Correction on the respective interface, which can lead to a
 degradation of the optical link, and therefore may lead to an
 interruption of service for the users connected to the respective
 EPON interface.
 Changing dot3ExtPkgObjectReset state can lead to a reset of the
 respective interface leading to an interruption of service for the
 users connected to the respective EPON interface.
 Changing dot3ExtPkgObjectPowerDown state can lead to a power down of
 the respective interface, leading to an interruption of service for
 the users connected to the respective EPON interface.
 Changing dot3ExtPkgObjectFecEnabled state can lead to disabling the
 Forward Error Correction on the respective interface, which can lead
 to a degradation of the optical link, and therefore may lead to an
 interruption of service for the users connected to the respective
 EPON interface.

Khermosh Standards Track [Page 86] RFC 4837 Managed Objects of EPON July 2007

 Changing dot3ExtPkgObjectRegisterAction state can lead to a change in
 the registration state of the respective interface, leading to a
 deregistration and an interruption of service for the users connected
 to the respective EPON interface.
 Changing dot3ExtPkgObjectReportNumThreshold can lead to a change in
 the reporting of the ONU interface and therefore to a change in the
 bandwidth allocation of the respective interface.  This change may
 lead a degradation or an interruption of service for the users
 connected to the respective EPON interface.
 Changing dot3ExtPkgObjectReportThreshold can lead to a change in the
 reporting of the ONU interface and therefore to a change in the
 bandwidth allocation of the respective interface.  This change may
 lead a degradation or an interruption of service for the users
 connected to the respective EPON interface.
 Changing dot3ExtPkgOptIfLowerInputPowerThreshold can lead to a
 Threshold Crossing Alert (TCA) being sent for the respective
 interface.  This alert may be leading to an interruption of service
 for the users connected to the respective EPON interface, depending
 on the system action on such an alert.
 Changing dot3ExtPkgOptIfUpperInputPowerThreshold can lead to a
 Threshold Crossing Alert (TCA) being sent for the respective
 interface.  This alert may be leading to an interruption of service
 for the users connected to the respective EPON interface, depending
 on the system action on such an alert.
 Changing dot3ExtPkgOptIfLowerOutputPowerThreshold can lead to a
 Threshold Crossing Alert (TCA) being sent for the respective
 interface.  This alert may be leading to an interruption of service
 for the users connected to the respective EPON interface, depending
 on the system action on such an alert.
 Changing dot3ExtPkgOptIfUpperOutputPowerThreshold can lead to a
 Threshold Crossing Alert (TCA) being sent for the respective
 interface.  This alert may be leading to an interruption of service
 for the users connected to the respective EPON interface, depending
 on the system action on such an alert.
 Changing dot3ExtPkgOptIfTransmitEnable state can lead to a halt in
 the optical transmission of the respective interface, leading to an
 interruption of service for the users connected to the respective
 EPON interface.

Khermosh Standards Track [Page 87] RFC 4837 Managed Objects of EPON July 2007

 The user of this MIB module must therefore be aware that support for
 SET operations in a non-secure environment without proper protection
 can have a negative effect on network operations.
 The readable objects in this MIB module (i.e., those with MAX-ACCESS
 other than not-accessible) may be considered sensitive in some
 environments since, collectively, they provide information about the
 performance of network interfaces and can reveal some aspects of
 their configuration.  In such environments it is important to control
 even GET and NOTIFY access to these objects and possibly even to
 encrypt their values when sending them over the network via SNMP.
 SNMP versions prior to SNMPv3 did not include adequate security.
 Even if the network itself is secure (for example by using IPsec),
 even then, 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.
 It is RECOMMENDED that implementers consider the security features as
 provided by the SNMPv3 framework (see [RFC3410], section 8),
 including full support for the SNMPv3 cryptographic mechanisms (for
 authentication and privacy).
 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.
