1. 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].

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:

RFC 4837 Managed Objects of EPON July 2007
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:
OLT ONU
| |
| Discovery Gate message \|
|--------------------------------------------|
| /|
| |
|/ Register Request message |
|--------------------------------------------|
|\ |
| |
| Register message |
| (assigning LLID) \|
|--------------------------------------------|
| /|
| |
| Gate message \|
|--------------------------------------------|
| /|
| |
|/ Register ACK message |
|--------------------------------------------|
|\ |
| |
| |
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
Khermosh Standards Track [Page 12]
RFC 4837 Managed Objects of EPON July 2007
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.

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:
--------
ONU interface | ONU | 10 megabit interface
--------------| modem |--------------------
---------
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:
---------
1st OLT interface | Head | gigE interface
------------------| end |--------------------
| |
------------------| |
2nd OLT interface | |
---------
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:

OLT_MAC_Address is the MAC address of the OLT EPON interface.
The following values will be set in the ifStack and ifInvStack tables
related to this example:
ifStackTable:
ifStackHigherLayer=265535, ifStackLowerLayer=2 - map between the OLT
physical interface and its broadcast virtual interface
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.

Setting this object to running(1) will cause the

object to reset(2) will cause the interface to go into
reset mode. When getting running(1), the interface is in
running mode. When getting reset(2), the interface is in

The write operation is not restricted in this document
and can be done at any time. 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.
This object is applicable for an OLT and an ONU. At the
OLT, it has a distinct value for each virtual interface.
A reset for a specific virtual interface resets only
this virtual interface and not the physical interface.
Thus, a virtual link that is malfunctioning can be
reset without affecting the operation of other virtual
interfaces.
The reset can cause Discontinuities in the values of the
counters of the interface, similar to re-initialization
of the management system. Discontinuity should be
indicated by the ifCounterDiscontinuityTime object of
the Interface MIB module."

Khermosh Standards Track [Page 71]
RFC 4837 Managed Objects of EPON July 2007
and it can report in a single MPCP REPORT message
of a few sets of queues.
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

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

The dot3ExtPkgQueueSetsTable table has a variable queue

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:

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.
