Definitions of Textual Conventions for the Management of the Fourth
Version of Border Gateway Protocol (BGP-4)
draft-ietf-idr-bgp4-mibv2-tc-mib-05
Abstract
This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB)
which defines Textual Conventions for the management of BGP-4. The
intent is that these textual conventions will be used in BGP-related
MIB modules that would otherwise define their own representations.
Status of This Memo
This Internet-Draft is submitted in full conformance with the
provisions of BCP 78 and BCP 79.

Internet-Draft BGP-4 MIB, Version 2 January 2014
1. Introduction
This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB)
which defines Textual Conventions for the management of BGP-4. The
intent is that these textual conventions will be used in BGP-related
MIB modules that would otherwise define their own representations.
See the BGP-4 specification [RFC4271] and Multiprotocol Extensions
for BGP-4 [RFC4760] for an introduction to the concepts these textual
conventions cover.
2. The Internet-Standard Management Framework
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].

4. Security Considerations
This module does not define any management objects. Instead, it
defines a set of textual conventions which may be used by other
modules which use the BGP-4 protocol to define management objects.
Meaningful security considerations can only be written in the MIB
modules that define management objects. Therefore, this document has
no impact on the security of the Internet.
5. IANA Considerations
IANA is requested to assign this MIB module an OID under mib-2.
