This document, the Structure of Policy Provisioning Information
(SPPI), defines the adapted subset of SNMP's Structure of Management
Information (SMI) used to write Policy Information Base (PIB) modules.
 
RFC 2748 defines the COPS protocol, and RFC 2749 describes how the
COPS protocol is used to provide for the outsourcing of policy
decisions for RSVP.  Another usage of the COPS protocol, for
the provisioning of policy, is introduced in RFC 3084.  In
this provisioning model, the policy information is viewed as a
collection of Provisioning Classes (PRCs) and Provisioning Instances
(PRIs) residing in a virtual information store, termed the Policy
Information Base (PIB).  Collections of related Provisioning Classes
are defined in a PIB module.

This document is a product of the Resource Allocation Protocol Working
Group of the IETF.

This is now a Proposed Standard Protocol.

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.
