Definitions of Managed Objects for the DS1 and E1 Interface Types

Status of this Memo

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

Abstract

This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB) for use with network management protocols in TCP/IP-based internets. In particular, it defines objects for managing DS1 Interfaces -- including both T1 and E1 (a.k.a., CEPT 2 Mbit/s) links.

This document entirely replaces RFC 1232, which contains a fundamental error: many objects are encoded as Counters that must be encoded as INTEGERs or Gauges. The magnitude of the change required is sufficient that virtually every object changed. Therefore, the MIB documented in RFC 1232 should not be implemented.

1. The Network Management Framework

The Internet-standard Network Management Framework consists of three components. They are:

STD 16/RFC 1155 [1] which defines the SMI, the mechanisms used for describing and naming objects for the purpose of management. STD 16/RFC 1212 [2] defines a more concise description mechanism, which is wholly consistent with the SMI.

RFC 1156 [3] which defines MIB-I, the core set of managed objects for the Internet suite of protocols. STD 17/RFC 1213 [4] defines MIB-II, an evolution of MIB-I based on implementation experience and new operational requirements.

STD 15/RFC 1157 [5] which defines the SNMP, the protocol used for network access to managed objects.

The Framework permits new objects to be defined for the purpose of experimentation and evaluation.

2. Objects

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) [6] defined in the SMI. In particular, each object has a name, a syntax, and an encoding. The name is an object identifier, an administratively assigned name, which specifies an object type. 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 OBJECT DESCRIPTOR, to also refer to the object type.

The syntax of an object type defines the abstract data structure corresponding to that object type. The ASN.1 language is used for this purpose. However, the SMI [1] purposely restricts the ASN.1 constructs which may be used. These restrictions are explicitly made for simplicity.

The encoding of an object type is simply how that object type is represented using the object type's syntax. Implicitly tied to the notion of an object type's syntax and encoding is how the object type is represented when being transmitted on the network.

The SMI specifies the use of the basic encoding rules of ASN.1 [7], subject to the additional requirements imposed by the SNMP.

2.1. Format of Definitions

Section 4 contains contains the specification of all object types contained in this MIB module. The object types are defined using the conventions defined in the SMI, as amended by the extensions specified in STD 16, RFC 1212 [2].

2.2. Changes from RFC 1232

The changes from RFC 1232 are the following:

(1) This MIB module contains three groups: DS1 Near End Group

which is mandatory, DS1 Far End Group which is optional, and the Fractional Table, which is optional.

(2) The Far End Group is a new group and contains statistics

that are collected from the far end DS1 interface. The Far End Group may only be implemented by DS1 systems that use the facilities data link to exchange this information - both T1.403 and PUB 54016 define ways to exchange this information over data links; vendors may use other proprietary means to do this on various link types.

(3) ds1CSUIndex has been renamed dsx1LineIndex. This object

is the identifier of a DS1 Interface on a device. On a

CSU, a single DS1 data stream will cross two DS1

interfaces, which have separate dsx1LineIndex values.

(4) ds1Index has been renamed dsx1IfIndex. This value for

this object is equal to the value of ifIndex from the

Interfaces table of MIB II (STD 17, RFC 1213).

(5) an object has been added (dsx1TransmitClockSource) to

indicate the source of transmit clock.

(6) The ACCESS for objects in the dsx1ConfigTable has been

set to read-write for items that are configurable.

(7) Description of test configurations has changed. A new

object has been added called dsx1LoopbackConfig, which

better describes the loopback capabilities of a DS1

interface on a device.

(8) The description of line alarm status has changed. A new

object has been added called dsx1LineStatus. This object better describes the status (e.g., failure state and loopback state) of a DS1 interface.

(9) All Counters have been changed to Gauges.

(10) Information about how applications might use the zero

code suppression have been removed; only the actual line

coding algorithm is described. For clarity the object

was thus renamed to dsx1LineCoding.

(11) A Line Errored Seconds object has been added to all near

end tables and the count of Bipolar Violations (BPVs) was changed to a count of Line Code Violations (LCVs).

     (12) Bursty Errored Seconds (a.k.a., Errored Seconds Type B)
          and Degraded Minutes objects have been added to all near
          end tables.

(13) The Coding Violation error event is now referred to as a

Path Coding Violation (PCV) Error Event.

3. Overview

These objects are used when the particular media being used to realize an interface is a DS1 physical interface. At present, this applies to these values of the ifType variable in the Internet- standard MIB:

            ds1 (18)
            e1  (19)

The definitions contained herein are based on the AT&T T-1 Superframe (a.k.a., D4) and Extended Superframe (ESF) formats [8, 9], the latter of which conforms to ANSI specifications [10], and the CCITT Recommendations [11, 12], referred to as E1 for the rest of this memo.

The various T1 and E1 line disciplines are similar enough that separate MIBs are unwarranted, although there are some differences. For example, Loss of Frame is defined more rigorously in the ESF specification than in the D4 specification, but it is defined in both.

Where it is necessary to distinguish between the flavors of E1 with and without CRC, E1-CRC to denotes the "with CRC" form (G.704 Table 4b) and E1-noCRC denotes the "without CRC" form (G.704 Table 4a).

3.1. Binding between ifIndex and DS1 Interfaces

Different physical configurations for the support of SNMP with DS1 equipment exist. To accommodate these scenarios, two different indices for DS1 interfaces are introduced in this MIB. These indices are dsx1IfIndex and dsx1LineIndex.

External interface scenario: the SNMP Agent represents all managed DS1 lines as external interfaces (for example, an Agent residing on the device supporting DS1 interfaces directly):

For this scenario, all interfaces are assigned an integer value equal to ifIndex, and the following applies:

ifIndex=dsx1IfIndex=dsx1LineIndex for all interfaces.

The dsx1IfIndex column of the DS1 Configuration table relates each DS1 interface to its corresponding interface (ifIndex) in the Internet-standard MIB (MIB-II STD 17, RFC 1213).

External & Internal interface scenario: the SNMP Agents resides on an host external from the device supporting DS1 interfaces (e.g., a router). The Agent represents both the host and the DS1 device. The index dsx1LineIndex is used to not only represent the DS1 interfaces external from the host/DS1-device combination, but also the DS1 interfaces connecting the host and the DS1 device. The index dsx1IfIndex is always equal to ifIndex.

Example:

A shelf full of CSUs connected to a Router. An SNMP Agent residing on the router proxies for itself and the CSU. The router has also an Ethernet interface:

           +-----+
     |     |     |
     |     |     |               +---------------------+
     |E    |     |  1.544  MBPS  |              Line#A | DS1 Link
     |t    |  R  |---------------+ - - - - -  - - -  - +------>
     |h    |     |               |                     |
     |e    |  O  |  1.544  MBPS  |              Line#B | DS1 Link
     |r    |     |---------------+ - - - - - - - - - - +------>
     |n    |  U  |               |  CSU Shelf          |
     |e    |     |  1.544  MBPS  |              Line#C | DS1 Link
     |t    |  T  |---------------+ - - - -- -- - - - - +------>
     |     |     |               |                     |
     |-----|  E  |  1.544  MBPS  |              Line#D | DS1 Link
     |     |     |---------------+ -  - - - -- - - - - +------>
     |     |  R  |               |_____________________|
     |     |     |
     |     +-----+

The assignment of the index values could for example be:

     ifIndex (= dsx1IfIndex)             dsx1LineIndex
     1                   NA                  NA (Ethernet)
     2      Line#A   Router Side             6
     2      Line#A   Network Side            7
     3      Line#B   Router Side             8
     3      Line#B   Network Side            9
     4      Line#C   Router Side            10
     4      Line#C   Network Side           11
     5      Line#D   Router Side            12
     5      Line#D   Network Side           13

For this example, ifNumber is equal to 5. Note the following description of dsx1LineIndex: the dsx1LineIndex identifies a DS1 Interface on a managed device. If there is an ifEntry that is directly associated with this and only this DS1 interface, it should have the same value as ifIndex. Otherwise, number the dsx1LineIndices with an unique identifier following the rules of choosing a number greater than ifNumber and numbering inside interfaces (e.g., equipment side) with even numbers and outside interfaces (e.g., network side) with odd numbers.

If the CSU shelf is managed by itself by a local SNMP Agent, the situation would be:

          ifIndex (= dsx1IfIndex)               dsx1LineIndex
          2      Line#A     Router Side             2
          1      Line#A     Network Side            1
          4      Line#B     Router Side             4
          3      Line#B     Network Side            3
          6      Line#C     Router Side             6
          5      Line#C     Network Side            5
          8      Line#D     Router Side             8
          7      Line#D     Network Side            7

3.2. Objectives of this MIB Module

There are numerous things that could be included in a MIB for DS1 signals: the management of multiplexors, CSUs, DSUs, and the like. The intent of this document is to facilitate the common management of all devices with DS1 interfaces. As such, a design decision was made up front to very closely align the MIB with the set of objects that can generally be read from DS1 devices that are currently deployed.

3.3. DS1 Terminology

The terminology used in this document to describe error conditions on a DS1 interface as monitored by a DS1 device are based on the definitions from the ANSI T1M1.3/92-005R1 draft standard [13]. If the definition in this document does not match the definition in the ANSI T1M1.3/92-005R1 draft document, the implementer should follow the definition described in this document.

3.3.1. Error Events

Bipolar Violation (BPV) Error Event

A BPV error event for an AMI-coded signal is the occurrence of a pulse of the same polarity as the previous pulse. A BPV error event for a B8ZS- or HDB3- coded signal is the occurrence of a pulse of the same polarity as the previous pulse without being a part of the zero substitution code.

Excessive Zeroes (EXZ) Error Event

An Excessive Zeroes error event for an AMI-coded signal is the occurrence of more than fifteen contiguous zeroes. For a B8ZS coded signal, the defect occurs when more than seven contiguous zeroes are detected.

Line Coding Violation (LCV) Error Event

A Line Coding Violation (LCV) is the occurrence of either a Bipolar Violation (BPV) or Excessive Zeroes (EXZ) Error Event.

Path Coding Violation (PCV) Error Event

A Path Coding Violation error event is a frame synchronization bit error in the D4 and E1-noCRC formats, or a CRC error in the ESF and E1-CRC formats.

Controlled Slip (CS) Error Event

          A Controlled Slip is the replication or deletion of the
          payload bits of a DS1 frame.  A Controlled Slip  may be
          performed when there is a difference between the timing
          of a synchronous receiving terminal and the received
          signal.  A Controlled Slip does not cause an Out of Frame
          defect.

3.3.2. Performance Defects

Out Of Frame (OOF) Defect

An OOF defect is the occurrence of a particular density of Framing Error events.

For T1 links, an Out of Frame defect is declared when the receiver detects two or more framing errors within a 3 msec period for ESF signals and 0.75 msec for D4 signals, or two or more errors out of five or fewer consecutive framing-bits.

For E1 links, an Out Of Frame defect is declared when

three consecutive frame alignment signals have been

received with an error (see G.706 Section 4.1 [17]).

Once an Out Of Frame Defect is declared, the framer

starts searching for a correct framing pattern. The Out

of Frame defect ends when the signal is in frame.

In-frame occurs when there are fewer than two frame bit errors within 3 msec period for ESF signals and 0.75 msec for D4 signals.

For E1 links, in-frame occurs when a) in frame N the frame alignment signal is correct and b) in frame N+1 the frame alignment signal is absent (i.e., bit 2 in TS0 is a one) and c) in frame N+2 the frame alignment signal is present and correct.

Alarm Indication Signal (AIS) Defect

For D4 and ESF links, the 'all ones' condition is detected at a DS1 line interface upon observing an unframed signal with a one's density of at least 99.9% present for a time equal to or greater than T, where 3 ms

<= T <= 75 ms. The AIS is terminated upon observing a signal not meeting the one's density or the unframed signal criteria for a period equal to or greater than than T.

For E1 links, the 'all-ones' condition is detected at the

line interface as a string of 512 bits containing fewer

than three zero bits (see O.162 [14] Section 3.3.2).

3.3.3. Performance Parameters

All performance parameters are accumulated in fifteen minute intervals and up to 96 intervals (24 hours worth) are kept by an agent. Fewer than 96 intervals of data will be available if the agent has been restarted within the last 24 hours. In addition, there is a rolling 24-hour total of each performance parameter.

There is no requirement for an agent to ensure fixed relationship between the start of a fifteen minute interval and any wall clock; however some agents may align the fifteen minute intervals with quarter hours.

Line Errored Seconds (LES)

A Line Errored Second, according to T1M1.3, is a second

in which one or more Line Code Violation error events

were detected.

While many implementations are currently unable to detect the zero strings, it is expected that interface manufacturers will add this capability in deference to ANSI; therefore, it will become available in time.

In the T1M1.3 specification, near end Line Code Violations and far end Line Errored Seconds are counted. For consistency, we count Line Errored Seconds at both ends.

Controlled Slip Seconds (CSS)

A Controlled Slip Second is a one-second interval containing one or more controlled slips.

Errored Seconds (ES)

For ESF and E1-CRC links an Errored Second is a second with one or more Path Code Violations OR one or more Out of Frame defects OR one or more Controlled Slip events OR a detected AIS defect.

For D4 and E1-noCRC links, the presence of Bipolar

Violations also triggers an Errored Second.

This is not incremented during an Unavailable Second.

Bursty Errored Seconds (BES)

A Bursty Errored Second (also known as Errored Second type B) is a second with fewer than 320 and more than 1 Path Coding Violation error events, no Severely Errored Frame defects and no detected incoming AIS defects. Controlled slips are not included in this parameter.

This is not incremented during an Unavailable Second.

Severely Errored Seconds (SES)

A Severely Errored Second for ESF signals is a second

with 320 or more Path Code Violation Error Events OR one

or more Out of Frame defects OR a detected AIS defect.

For E1-CRC signals, a Severely Errored Second is a second with 832 or more Path Code Violation error events OR one or more Out of Frame defects.

For E1-noCRC signals, a Severely Errored Second is a 2048 LCVs or more.

For D4 signals, a Severely Errored Second is a count of one-second intervals with Framing Error events, or an OOF defect, or 1544 LCVs or more.

Controlled slips are not included in this parameter.

This is not incremented during an Unavailable Second.

Severely Errored Framing Second (SEFS)

An Severely Errored Framing Second is a second with one

or more Out of Frame defects OR a detected AIS defect.

Degraded Minutes

A Degraded Minute is one in which the estimated error

rate exceeds 1E-6 but does not exceed 1E-3 (see G.821

[15]).

Degraded Minutes are determined by collecting all of the Available Seconds, removing any Severely Errored Seconds grouping the result in 60-second long groups and counting a 60-second long group (a.k.a., minute) as degraded if the cumulative errors during the seconds present in the group exceed 1E-6. Available seconds are merely those seconds which are not Unavailable as described below.

Unavailable Seconds (UAS)

Unavailable Seconds (UAS) are calculated by counting the number of seconds that the interface is unavailable. The DS1 interface is said to be unavailable from the onset of 10 contiguous SESs, or the onset of the condition leading to a failure (see Failure States). If the condition leading to the failure was immediately preceded by one or more contiguous SESs, then the DS1 interface unavailability starts from the onset of these SESs. Once unavailable, and if no failure is present, the DS1 interface becomes available at the onset of 10 contiguous seconds with no SESs. Once unavailable, and if a failure is present, the DS1 interface becomes available at the onset of 10 contiguous seconds with no SESs, if the failure clearing time is less than or equal to 10 seconds. If the failure clearing time is more than 10 seconds, the DS1 interface becomes available at the onset of 10 contiguous seconds with no SESs, or the onset period leading to the successful clearing condition, whichever occurs later. With respect to the DS1 error counts, all counters are incremented while the DS1 interface is deemed available. While the interface is deemed unavailable, the only count that is incremented is UASs.

A special case exists when the 10 or more second period crosses the 900 second statistics window boundary, as the foregoing description implies that the Severely Errored Second and Unavailable Second counters must be adjusted when the Unavailable Signal State is entered. Clearly, successive GETs of the affected dsx1IntervalSESs and dsx1IntervalUASs objects will return differing values if the first GET occurs during the first few seconds of the window. This is viewed as an unavoidable side-effect of selecting the presently defined managed objects as a basis for this memo.

3.3.4. Failure States

The following failure states are received, or detected failures, that are reported in the dsx1LineStatus object. When a DS1 interface would, if ever, produce the conditions leading to the failure state is described in the appropriate specification.

Far End Alarm Failure

The Far End Alarm failure is also known as "Yellow Alarm" in the T1 case and "Distant Alarm" in the E1 case.

For D4 links, the Far End Alarm failure is declared when bit 6 of all channels has been zero for at least 335 ms and is cleared when bit 6 of at least one channel is non-zero for a period T, where T is usually less than one second and always less than 5 seconds. The Far End Alarm failure is not declared for D4 links when a Loss of Signal is detected.

For ESF links, the Far End Alarm failure is declared if the Yellow Alarm signal pattern occurs in at least seven out of ten contiguous 16-bit pattern intervals and is cleared if the Yellow Alarm signal pattern does not occur in ten contiguous 16-bit signal pattern intervals.

For E1 links, the Far End Alarm failure is declared when bit 3 of time-slot zero is received set to one on two consecutive occasions. The Far End Alarm failure is cleared when bit 3 of time-slot zero is received set to zero.

Alarm Indication Signal (AIS) Failure

          The Alarm Indication Signal failure is declared when an
          AIS defect is detected at the input and the  AIS defect
          still exists after the Loss Of Frame failure (which is
          caused by the unframed nature of the 'all-ones' signal)
          is declared. The AIS failure is cleared when the Loss Of
          Frame failure is cleared.

Loss Of Frame Failure

          For T1 links, the Loss Of Frame failure is declared when
          an OOF or LOS  defect has persisted for T seconds, where
          2 <= T <= 10.  The Loss Of Frame failure is cleared when
          there have been no OOF or LOS defects during a period T
          where 0 <= T <= 20.  Many systems will perform "hit
          integration" within the period T before declaring or
          clearing the failure e.g., see TR 62411 [16].

For E1 links, the Loss Of Frame Failure is declared when an OOF defect is detected.

Loss Of Signal Failure

For T1, the Loss Of Signal failure is declared upon

observing 175 +/- 75 contiguous pulse positions with no

pulses of either positive or negative polarity. The LOS

failure is cleared upon observing an average pulse density of at least 12.5% over a period of 175 +/- 75 contiguous pulse positions starting with the receipt of a pulse.

For E1 links, the Loss Of Signal failure is declared when greater than 10 consecutive zeroes are detected (see O.162 Section 3.4.4).

Loopback Pseudo-Failure

The Loopback Pseudo-Failure is declared when the near end equipment has placed a loopback (of any kind) on the DS1. This allows a management entity to determine from one object whether the DS1 can be considered to be in service or not (from the point of view of the near end equipment).

TS16 Alarm Indication Signal Failure

For E1 links, the TS16 Alarm Indication Signal failure is declared when time-slot 16 is received as all ones for all frames of two consecutive multiframes (see G.732 Section 4.2.6). This condition is never declared for T1.

Loss Of MultiFrame Failure

The Loss Of MultiFrame failure is declared when two consecutive multiframe alignment signals (bits 4 through 7 of TS16 of frame 0) have been received with an error. The Loss Of Multiframe failure is cleared when the first correct multiframe alignment signal is received. The Loss Of Multiframe failure can only be declared for E1 links operating with G.732 [18] framing (sometimes called "Channel Associated Signalling" mode).

Far End Loss Of Multiframe Failure

The Far End Loss Of Multiframe failure is declared when bit 2 of TS16 of frame 0 is received set to one on two consecutive occasions. The Far End Loss Of Multiframe failure is cleared when bit 2 of TS16 of frame 0 is received set to zero. The Far End Loss Of Multiframe failure can only be declared for E1 links operating in "Channel Associated Signalling" mode.

     -- the DS1 Fractional Group

-- Implementation of this group is mandatory for those -- systems dividing a DS1 into channels containing different -- data streams that are of local interest. Systems which -- are indifferent to data content, such as CSUs, need not -- implement it.

-- The DS1 fractional table identifies which DS1 channels -- associated with a CSU are being used to support a -- logical interface, i.e., an entry in the interfaces table -- from the Internet-standard MIB.

-- For example, consider an application managing a North -- American ISDN Primary Rate link whose division is a 384 kbit/s -- H1 "B" Channel for Video, a second H1 for data to a primary -- routing peer, and 12 64 kbit/s H0 "B" Channels. Consider that -- some subset of the H0 channels are used for voice and the -- remainder are available for dynamic data calls.

-- we count a total of 14 interfaces multiplexed onto the DS1 -- interface. Six DS1 channels (for the sake of the example, -- channels 1..6) are used for Video, six more (7..11 and 13) -- are used for data, and the remaining 12 are are in channels -- 12 and 14..24.

-- Let us further imagine that ifIndex 2 is of type DS1 and -- refers to the DS1 interface, and that the interfaces layered -- onto it are numbered 3..16.

-- We might describe the allocation of channels, in the -- dsx1FracTable, as follows:

     -- dsx1FracIfIndex.2. 1 = 3    dsx1FracIfIndex.2.13 = 4
     -- dsx1FracIfIndex.2. 2 = 3    dsx1FracIfIndex.2.14 = 6
     -- dsx1FracIfIndex.2. 3 = 3    dsx1FracIfIndex.2.15 = 7
     -- dsx1FracIfIndex.2. 4 = 3    dsx1FracIfIndex.2.16 = 8
     -- dsx1FracIfIndex.2. 5 = 3    dsx1FracIfIndex.2.17 = 9
     -- dsx1FracIfIndex.2. 6 = 3    dsx1FracIfIndex.2.18 = 10
     -- dsx1FracIfIndex.2. 7 = 4    dsx1FracIfIndex.2.19 = 11
     -- dsx1FracIfIndex.2. 8 = 4    dsx1FracIfIndex.2.20 = 12
     -- dsx1FracIfIndex.2. 9 = 4    dsx1FracIfIndex.2.21 = 13
     -- dsx1FracIfIndex.2.10 = 4    dsx1FracIfIndex.2.22 = 14
     -- dsx1FracIfIndex.2.11 = 4    dsx1FracIfIndex.2.23 = 15
     -- dsx1FracIfIndex.2.12 = 5    dsx1FracIfIndex.2.24 = 16
     
     --      For North American (DS1) interfaces, there are 24 legal
     --      channels, numbered 1 through 24.
     
     --      For G.704 interfaces, there are 31 legal channels,
     --      numbered 1 through 31.  The channels (1..31) correspond
     --      directly to the equivalently numbered time-slots.
