1. Introduction
This document defines a Management Information Base (MIB) module for
use with network management protocols in the Internet community.
Traffic Flow Security (IP-TFS) extensions as defined in
[I-D.ietf-ipsecme-iptfs] are enhancements to an IPsec tunnel Security
Association to provide improved traffic confidentiality.
For a detailed overview of the documents that describe the current
Internet-Standard Management Framework, please refer to section 7 of
[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,
[RFC2578], STD 58, [RFC2579] and STD 58, [RFC2580].
The objects defined here are the same as
[I-D.ietf-ipsecme-yang-iptfs] with the exception that only
operational or state data is supported. By making operational data
accessible via SNMP existing network management systems can monitor
IP-TFS. This data is listed in the MIB tree in Section 4.1. This
module uses the YANG model as a reference point for managed objects.
Note an IETF MIB model for IPsec was never standardized however the
structures here could be adapted to existing proprietary MIB
implementations where SNMP is used to manage networks.

2. Terminology & Concepts
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and
"OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in
[RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all capitals,
as shown here.
3. Overview
This document defines the MIB for access to operational parameters of
IP traffic flow security (IP-TFS). IP-TFS, defined in
[I-D.ietf-ipsecme-iptfs], configures a security association for
tunnel mode IPsec with characteristics that improve traffic
confidentiality and reduce bandwidth efficiency loss.
This document is based on the concepts and management model defined
in [I-D.ietf-ipsecme-yang-iptfs]. This document assumes familiarity
with IP security concepts described in [RFC4301], IP-TFS as described
in [I-D.ietf-ipsecme-iptfs] and the IP-TFS management model described
in [I-D.ietf-ipsecme-yang-iptfs].
This document specifies an extensible operational model for IP-TFS.
It reuses the management model defined in
[I-D.ietf-ipsecme-yang-iptfs]. It allows SNMP systems to read
operational objects (which includes configured objects) from IP-TFS.

DESCRIPTION
"When set to true, the default, this enables the
congestion control on-the-wire exchange of data that is
required by congestion control algorithms as defined by
RFC 5348. When set to false, IP-TFS sends fixed-sized
packets over an IP-TFS tunnel at a constant rate."

DESCRIPTION
"Packet size is either auto-discovered or manually
configured. If usePathMtuDiscovery is true the system
utilizes path-mtu to determine maximum IP-TFS packet
size. If the packet size is explicitly configured
then it will only be adjusted downward if use-path-mtu
is set."

On transmission, target bandwidth/bit rate in bps for

DESCRIPTION
"IP-TFS bit rate may be specified as a layer 3 packet rate.

rate may be adjusted down."

dontFragment OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX TruthValue
MAX-ACCESS read-only

DESCRIPTION
"On transmission, disable packet fragmentation across
consecutive IP-TFS tunnel packets; inner packets larger
than what can be transmitted in outer packets will be
dropped."
::= { iptfsConfigTableEntry 7 }
maxAggregationTime OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX NanoSeconds
MAX-ACCESS read-only
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"On transmission, maximum aggregation time is the
maximum length of time a received inner packet can be
held prior to transmission in the IP-TFS tunnel. Inner
packets that would be held longer than this time, based
on the current tunnel configuration will be dropped
rather than be queued for transmission."
::= { iptfsConfigTableEntry 8 }

"On reception, the maximum number of out-of-order

packets that will be reordered by an IP-TFS receiver
while performing the reordering operation. The value 0
disables any reordering."
::= { iptfsConfigTableEntry 9 }
sendImmediately OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX TruthValue
MAX-ACCESS read-only
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"On reception, send inner packets as soon as possible, do
not wait for lost or misordered outer packets.
Selecting this option reduces the inner (user) packet
delay but can amplify out-of-order delivery of the inner
packet stream in the presence of packet aggregation and
any reordering."
::= { iptfsConfigTableEntry 10 }
lostPacketTimerInterval OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX NanoSeconds
MAX-ACCESS read-only
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"On reception, this interval defines the length of time
an IP-TFS receiver will wait for a missing packet before
considering it lost. If not using send-immediately,
then each lost packet will delay inner (user) packets
until this timer expires. Setting this value too low can
impact reordering and reassembly."

5. IANA Considerations
The MIB module in this document uses the following IANA-assigned
OBJECT IDENTIFIER value, recorded in the SMI Network Management MGMT
Codes Internet-standard MIB - registry:
Name Description OBJECT IDENTIFIER value
------- --------------------------------- ----------------------
iptfsMIB IP-TRAFFIC-FLOW-SECURITY-MIB { mib-2 TBA-IANA }
6. Security Considerations
The MIB specified in this document can read the operational behavior
of IP traffic flow security. For the implications regarding write
configuration consult the [I-D.ietf-ipsecme-iptfs] which defines the
functionality.
There are no management objects defined in this MIB module that have
a MAX-ACCESS clause of read-write and/or read-create. So, if this
MIB module is implemented correctly, then there is no risk that an
intruder can alter or create any management objects of this MIB
module via direct SNMP SET operations.
Some of the objects in this MIB module may be considered sensitive or
vulnerable in some network environments. This includes INDEX objects
with a MAX-ACCESS of not-accessible, and any indices from other

Internet-Draft draft-ietf-ipsecme-mib-iptfs-11 October 2022
modules exposed via AUGMENTS. It is thus important to control even
GET and/or NOTIFY access to these objects and possibly to even
encrypt the values of these objects when sending them over the
network via SNMP. These are the tables and objects and their
sensitivity/vulnerability:
* iptfsInnerStatsTable and iptfsOuterStatsTable- Access to IP inner
and outer traffic flow security statistics can provide information
that IP traffic flow security obscures such as the true activity
of the flows using IP traffic flow security.
SNMP versions prior to SNMPv3 did not include adequate security.
Even if the network itself is secure (for example by using IPsec),
there is no control as to who on the secure network is allowed to
access and GET (read) the objects in this MIB module.
To prevent unauthorized access to SNMP including access to IP-TFS
sensitive objects:
* Implementations SHOULD provide the security features described by
the SNMPv3 framework (see [RFC3410]), and implementations claiming
compliance to the SNMPv3 standard MUST include full support for
authentication and privacy via the User-based Security Model (USM)
[RFC3414] with the AES cipher algorithm [RFC3826].
Implementations MAY also provide support for the Transport
Security Model (TSM) [RFC5591] in combination with a secure
transport such as SSH [RFC5592] or TLS/DTLS [RFC6353].
* 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.
