RFC 7460 Power/Energy Monitoring and Control MIB March 2015
1. Introduction
This document defines a subset of the Management Information Base
(MIB) for use in energy management of devices within or connected to
communication networks. The MIB modules in this document are
designed to provide a model for energy management, which includes
monitoring for Power State and energy consumption of networked
elements. This MIB takes into account the "Energy Management
Framework" [RFC7326], which, in turn, is based on the "Requirements
for Energy Management" [RFC6988].
Energy management can be applied to devices in communication
networks. Target devices for this specification include (but are not
limited to) routers, switches, Power over Ethernet (PoE) endpoints,
protocol gateways for building management systems, intelligent
meters, home energy gateways, hosts and servers, sensor proxies, etc.
Target devices and the use cases for Energy Management are discussed
in Energy Management Applicability Statement [EMAN-AS].
Where applicable, device monitoring extends to the individual
components of the device and to any attached dependent devices. For
example, a device can contain components that are independent from a
Power State point of view, such as line cards, processor cards, hard
drives. A device can also have dependent attached devices, such as a
switch with PoE endpoints or a power distribution unit with attached
endpoints.
1.1. Conventions Used in This Document
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 RFC
2119 [RFC2119].
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 MIB
modules that are compliant to SMIv2, which is described in STD 58,
RFC 2578 [RFC2578], STD 58, RFC 2579 [RFC2579] and STD 58, RFC 2580
[RFC2580].
Chandramouli, et al. Standards Track [Page 3]
RFC 7460 Power/Energy Monitoring and Control MIB March 2015
3. Use Cases
Requirements for power and energy monitoring for networking devices
are specified in [RFC6988]. The requirements in [RFC6988] cover
devices typically found in communications networks, such as switches,
routers, and various connected endpoints. For a power monitoring
architecture to be useful, it should also apply to facility meters,
power distribution units, gateway proxies for commercial building
control, home automation devices, and devices that interface with the
utility and/or smart grid. Accordingly, the scope of the MIB modules
in this document are broader than that specified in [RFC6988].
Several use cases for Energy Management have been identified in the
"Energy Management (EMAN) Applicability Statement" [EMAN-AS].

5. Architecture Concepts Applied to the MIB Modules
This section describes the concepts specified in the Energy
Management Framework [RFC7326] that pertain to power usage, with
specific information related to the MIB module specified in this
document. This subsection maps concepts developed in the Energy
Management Framework [RFC7326].
The Energy Monitoring MIB has two independent MIB modules: ENERGY-
OBJECT-MIB and POWER-ATTRIBUTES-MIB. The first, ENERGY-OBJECT-MIB,
is focused on measurement of power and energy. The second, POWER-
ATTRIBUTES-MIB, is focused on power quality measurements for Energy
Objects.
Devices and their sub-components can be modeled using the containment
tree of the ENTITY-MIB [RFC6933].
5.1. Energy Object Tables
5.1.1. ENERGY-OBJECT-MIB
The ENERGY-OBJECT-MIB module consists of five tables.
The first table is the eoMeterCapabilitiesTable. It indicates the
instrumentation available for each Energy Object. Entries in this
table indicate which other tables from the ENERGY-OBJECT-MIB and
POWER-ATTRIBUTES-MIB are available for each Energy Object. The
eoMeterCapabilitiesTable is indexed by entPhysicalIndex [RFC6933].
The second table is the eoPowerTable. It reports the power
consumption of each Energy Object as well as the units, sign,
measurement accuracy, and related objects. The eoPowerTable is
indexed by entPhysicalIndex.
The third table is the eoPowerStateTable. For each Energy Object, it
reports information and statistics about the supported Power States.
The eoPowerStateTable is indexed by entPhysicalIndex and
eoPowerStateIndex.
The fourth table is the eoEnergyParametersTable. The entries in this
table configure the parameters of energy and demand measurement
collection. This table is indexed by eoEnergyParametersIndex.
The fifth table is the eoEnergyTable. The entries in this table
provide a log of the energy and demand information. This table is
indexed by eoEnergyParametersIndex.

5.1.2. POWER-ATTRIBUTES-MIB
The POWER-ATTRIBUTES-MIB module consists of three tables.
The first table is the eoACPwrAttributesTable. It indicates the
power quality available for each Energy Object. The
eoACPwrAttributesTable is indexed by entPhysicalIndex [RFC6933].
The second table is the eoACPwrAttributesDelPhaseTable. The entries
in this table configure the parameters of energy and demand
measurement collection. This table is indexed by
eoEnergyParametersIndex.
The third table is the eoACPwrAttributesWyePhaseTable. For each
Energy Object, it reports information and statistics about the
supported Power States. The eoPowerStateTable is indexed by
entPhysicalIndex and eoPowerStateIndex.

(*) Compliance with the ENERGY-OBJECT-CONTEXT-MIB
Chandramouli, et al. Standards Track [Page 11]
RFC 7460 Power/Energy Monitoring and Control MIB March 2015
5.2. Energy Object Identity
The Energy Object identity information is specified in the ENERGY-
OBJECT-CONTEXT-MIB module [RFC7461] primary table, i.e., the eoTable.
In this table, Energy Object context such as domain, role
description, and importance are specified. In addition, the ENERGY-
OBJECT-CONTEXT-MIB module specifies the relationship between Energy
Objects. There are several possible relationships between Energy
Objects, such as meteredBy, metering, poweredBy, powering,
aggregatedBy, and aggregating as defined in the IANA-ENERGY-RELATION-
MIB module [RFC7461].
5.3. Power State
An Energy Object may have energy-conservation modes called "Power
States". There may be several intermediate energy-saving modes
between the ON and OFF states of a device.
Power States, which represent universal states of power management of
an Energy Object, are specified by the eoPowerState MIB object. The
actual Power State is specified by the eoPowerOperState MIB object,
while the eoPowerAdminState MIB object specifies the Power State
requested for the Energy Object. The difference between the values
of eoPowerOperState and eoPowerAdminState indicates that the Energy
Object is busy transitioning from eoPowerAdminState into the
eoPowerOperState, at which point it will update the content of
eoPowerOperState. In addition, the possible reason for a change in
Power State is reported in eoPowerStateEnterReason. Regarding
eoPowerStateEnterReason, management stations and Energy Objects
should support any format of the owner string dictated by the local
policy of the organization. It is suggested that this name contain
at least the reason for the transition change, and one or more of the
following: IP address, management station name, network manager's
name, location, or phone number.
The MIB objects eoPowerOperState, eoPowerAdminState, and
eoPowerStateEnterReason are contained in the eoPowerTable.
eoPowerStateTable enumerates the maximum power usage in watts for
every single supported Power State of each Power State Set supported
by the Energy Object. In addition, eoPowerStateTable provides
additional statistics such as eoPowerStateEnterCount, i.e., the
number of times an entity has visited a particular Power State, and
eoPowerStateTotalTime, i.e., the total time spent in a particular
Power State of an Energy Object.
Chandramouli, et al. Standards Track [Page 12]
RFC 7460 Power/Energy Monitoring and Control MIB March 2015
5.3.1. Power State Set
There are several standards and implementations of Power State Sets.
An Energy Object can support one or multiple Power State Set
implementations concurrently.
There are currently three Power State Sets defined:
IEEE1621(256) - [IEEE1621]
DMTF(512) - [DMTF]
EMAN(768) - [RFC7326]
The Power State Sets are listed in [RFC7326] along with each Power
State within the Power Set. The Power State Sets are specified by
the PowerStateSet Textual Convention (TC) as an IANA-maintained MIB
module. The initial version of this MIB module is specified in this
document.
5.4. Energy Object Usage Information
For an Energy Object, power usage is reported using eoPower. The
magnitude of measurement is based on the eoPowerUnitMultiplier MIB
variable, based on the UnitMultiplier TC. Power measurement
magnitude should conform to the IEC 62053-21 [IEC.62053-21] and IEC
62053-22 [IEC.62053-22] definition of unit multiplier for the SI
units of measure (where SI is the International System of Units).
Measured values are represented in SI units obtained by BaseValue *
10 raised to the power of the unit multiplier.
For example, if current power usage of an Energy Object is 3, it
could be 3 W, 3 mW, 3 kW, or 3 MW, depending on the value of
eoPowerUnitMultiplier. Note that other measurements throughout the
two MIB modules in this document use the same mechanism, including
eoPowerStatePowerUnitMultiplier, eoEnergyUnitMultiplier, and
oACPwrAttributesPowerUnitMultiplier.
In addition to knowing the usage and magnitude, it is useful to know
how an eoPower measurement was obtained. A Network Management System
(NMS) can use this to account for the accuracy and nature of the
reading between different implementations. eoPowerMeasurementLocal
describes whether the measurements were made at the device itself or
from a remote source. The eoPowerMeasurementCaliber describes the
method that was used to measure the power and can distinguish actual
or estimated values. There may be devices in the network that may
not be able to measure or report power consumption. For those
devices, the object eoPowerMeasurementCaliber shall report that the
measurement mechanism is "unavailable" and the eoPower measurement
shall be "0".
Chandramouli, et al. Standards Track [Page 13]
RFC 7460 Power/Energy Monitoring and Control MIB March 2015
The nameplate power rating of an Energy Object is specified in
eoPowerNameplate MIB object.
5.5. Optional Power Usage Attributes
The optional POWER-ATTRIBUTES-MIB module can be implemented to
further describe power attributes usage measurement. The POWER-
ATTRIBUTES-MIB module is aligned with the IEC 61850 7-2 standard to
describe alternating current (AC) measurements.
The POWER-ATTRIBUTES-MIB module contains a primary table,
eoACPwrAttributesTable, that defines power attributes measurements
for supported entPhysicalIndex entities, as a sparse extension of the
eoPowerTable (with entPhysicalIndex as primary index). This
eoACPwrAttributesTable table contains such information as the
configuration (single phase, DEL 3 phases, WYE 3 phases), frequency,
power accuracy, total active/reactive power/apparent power, amperage,
and voltage.
In case of three-phase power, an additional table is populated with
power attributes measurements per phase (hence, double indexed by the
entPhysicalIndex and a phase index). This table, describes
attributes specific to either WYE or DEL configurations.
In a DEL configuration, the eoACPwrAttributesDelPhaseTable describes
the phase-to-phase power attributes measurements, i.e., voltage. In
a DEL configuration, the current is equal in all three phases.
In a WYE configuration, the eoACPwrAttributesWyePhaseTable describes
the phase-to-neutral power attributes measurements, i.e., voltage,
current, active/reactive/apparent power, and power factor.
5.6. Optional Energy Measurement
It is only relevant to measure energy and demand when there are
actual power measurements obtained from measurement hardware. If the
eoPowerMeasurementCaliber MIB object has values of unavailable,
unknown, estimated, or presumed, then the energy and demand values
are not useful.
Two tables are introduced to characterize energy measurement of an
Energy Object: eoEnergyTable and eoEnergyParametersTable. Both
energy and demand information can be represented via the
eoEnergyTable. Demand information can be represented. The
eoEnergyParametersTable consists of the parameters defining
eoEnergyParametersIndex -- an index for the Energy Object,
eoEnergyObjectIndex -- linked to the entPhysicalIndex of the Energy
Object, the duration of measurement intervals in seconds,
Chandramouli, et al. Standards Track [Page 14]
RFC 7460 Power/Energy Monitoring and Control MIB March 2015
(eoEnergyParametersIntervalLength), the number of successive
intervals to be stored in the eoEnergyTable,
(eoEnergyParametersIntervalNumber), the type of measurement technique
(eoEnergyParametersIntervalMode), and a sample rate used to calculate
the average (eoEnergyParametersSampleRate). Judicious choice of the
sampling rate will ensure accurate measurement of energy while not
imposing an excessive polling burden.
There are three eoEnergyParametersIntervalMode types used for energy
measurement collection: period, sliding, and total. The choices of
the three different modes of collection are based on IEC standard
61850-7-4 [IEC.61850-7-4]. Note that multiple
eoEnergyParametersIntervalMode types MAY be configured
simultaneously. It is important to note that for a given Energy
Object, multiple modes (periodic, total, sliding window) of energy
measurement collection can be configured with the use of
eoEnergyParametersIndex. However, simultaneous measurement in
multiple modes for a given Energy Object depends on the Energy Object
capability.
These three eoEnergyParametersIntervalMode types are illustrated by
the following three figures, for which:
- The horizontal axis represents the current time, with the symbol
<--- L ---> expressing the eoEnergyParametersIntervalLength and
the eoEnergyCollectionStartTime is represented by S1, S2, S3,
S4, eoEnergyParametersIntervalNumber.
- The vertical axis represents the time interval of sampling and
the value of eoEnergyConsumed can be obtained at the end of the
sampling period. The symbol =========== denotes the duration of
the sampling period.

Chandramouli, et al. Standards Track [Page 15]
RFC 7460 Power/Energy Monitoring and Control MIB March 2015
A eoEnergyParametersIntervalMode type of 'period' specifies non-
overlapping periodic measurements. Therefore, the next
eoEnergyCollectionStartTime is equal to the previous
eoEnergyCollectionStartTime plus eoEnergyParametersIntervalLength.

Figure 5: Total eoEnergyParametersIntervalMode
Chandramouli, et al. Standards Track [Page 16]
RFC 7460 Power/Energy Monitoring and Control MIB March 2015
An eoEnergyParametersIntervalMode type of 'total' specifies a
continuous measurement since the last reset. The value of
eoEnergyParametersIntervalNumber should be (1) one and
eoEnergyParametersIntervalLength is ignored.
The eoEnergyParametersStatus is used to start and stop energy usage
logging. The status of this variable is "active" when all the
objects in eoEnergyParametersTable are appropriate, which, in turn,
indicates whether or not eoEnergyTable entries exist. Finally, the
eoEnergyParametersStorageType variable indicates the storage type for
this row, i.e., whether the persistence is maintained across a device
reload.
The eoEnergyTable consists of energy measurements of
eoEnergyConsumed, eoEnergyProvided and eoEnergyStored, unit scale of
measured energy with eoEnergyUnitMultiplier, percentage accuracy with
eoEnergyAccuracy, and the maximum observed energy within a window in
eoEnergyMaxConsumed, eoEnergyMaxProduced, and
eoEnergyDiscontinuityTime.
Measurements of the total energy consumed by an Energy Object may
suffer from interruptions in the continuous measurement of energy
consumption. In order to indicate such interruptions, the object
eoEnergyDiscontinuityTime is provided for indicating the time of the
last interruption of total energy measurement.
eoEnergyDiscontinuityTime shall indicate the sysUpTime [RFC3418] when
the device was reset.
The following example illustrates the eoEnergyTable and
eoEnergyParametersTable:
First, in order to estimate energy, a time interval to sample energy
should be specified, i.e., eoEnergyParametersIntervalLength can be
set to "900 seconds" or 15 minutes and the number of consecutive
intervals over which the maximum energy is calculated
(eoEnergyParametersIntervalNumber) as "10". The sampling rate
internal to the Energy Object for measurement of power usage
(eoEnergyParametersSampleRate) can be "1000 milliseconds", as set by
the Energy Object as a reasonable value. Then, the
eoEnergyParametersStatus is set to active to indicate that the Energy
Object should start monitoring the usage per the eoEnergyTable.
The indices for the eoEnergyTable are eoEnergyParametersIndex, which
identifies the index for the setting of energy measurement collection
Energy Object, and eoEnergyCollectionStartTime, which denotes the
start time of the energy measurement interval based on sysUpTime
[RFC3418]. The value of eoEnergyComsumed is the measured energy
consumption over the time interval specified
Chandramouli, et al. Standards Track [Page 17]
RFC 7460 Power/Energy Monitoring and Control MIB March 2015
(eoEnergyParametersIntervalLength) based on the Energy Object
internal sampling rate (eoEnergyParametersSampleRate). While
choosing the values for the eoEnergyParametersIntervalLength and
eoEnergyParametersSampleRate, it is recommended to take into
consideration both the network element resources adequate to process
and store the sample values and the mechanism used to calculate the
eoEnergyConsumed. The units are derived from eoEnergyUnitMultiplier.
For example, eoEnergyConsumed can be "100" with
eoEnergyUnitMultiplier equal to 0, the measured energy consumption of
the Energy Object is 100 watt-hours. The eoEnergyMaxConsumed is the
maximum energy observed and that can be "150 watt-hours".
The eoEnergyTable has a buffer to retain a certain number of
intervals, as defined by eoEnergyParametersIntervalNumber. If the
default value of "10" is kept, then the eoEnergyTable contains 10
energy measurements, including the maximum.
Here is a brief explanation of how the maximum energy can be
calculated. The first observed energy measurement value is taken to
be the initial maximum. With each subsequent measurement, based on
numerical comparison, maximum energy may be updated. The maximum
value is retained as long as the measurements are taking place.
Based on periodic polling of this table, an NMS could compute the
maximum over a longer period, e.g., a month, 3 months, or a year.
5.7. Fault Management
[RFC6988] specifies requirements about Power States such as "the
current Power State", "the time of the last state change", "the total
time spent in each state", "the number of transitions to each state",
etc. Some of these requirements are fulfilled explicitly by MIB
objects such as eoPowerOperState, eoPowerStateTotalTime, and
eoPowerStateEnterCount. Some of the other requirements are met via
the SNMP NOTIFICATION mechanism. eoPowerStateChange SNMP
notification which is generated when the value of oPowerStateIndex,
eoPowerOperState, or eoPowerAdminState have changed.
6. Discovery
It is probable that most Energy Objects will require the
implementation of the ENERGY-OBJECT-CONTEXT-MIB [RFC7461] as a
prerequisite for this MIB module. In such a case, the eoPowerTable
of the EMAN-ENERGY-OBJECT-MIB is cross-referenced with the eoTable of
ENERGY-OBJECT-CONTEXT-MIB via entPhysicalIndex. Every Energy Object
MUST implement entPhysicalIndex, entPhysicalClass, entPhysicalName,
and entPhysicalUUID from the ENTITY-MIB [RFC6933]. As the primary
Chandramouli, et al. Standards Track [Page 18]
RFC 7460 Power/Energy Monitoring and Control MIB March 2015
index for the Energy Object, entPhysicalIndex is used: it
characterizes the Energy Object in the ENERGY-OBJECT-MIB and the
POWER-ATTRIBUTES-MIB MIB modules (this document).
The NMS must first poll the ENERGY-OBJECT-CONTEXT-MIB MIB module
[RFC7461], if available, in order to discover all the Energy Objects
and the relationships between those Energy Objects. In the ENERGY-
OBJECT-CONTEXT-MIB module tables, the Energy Objects are indexed by
the entPhysicalIndex.
From there, the NMS must poll the eoPowerStateTable (specified in the
ENERGY-OBJECT-MIB module in this document), which enumerates, amongst
other things, the maximum power usage. As the entries in
eoPowerStateTable table are indexed by the Energy Object
(entPhysicalIndex) and by the Power State Set (eoPowerStateIndex),
the maximum power usage is discovered per Energy Object, and the
power usage per Power State of the Power State Set. In other words,
reading the eoPowerStateTable allows the discovery of each Power
State within every Power State Set supported by the Energy Object.
The MIB module may be populated with the Energy Object relationship
information, which have its own Energy Object index value
(entPhysicalIndex). However, the Energy Object relationship must be
discovered via the ENERGY-OBJECT-CONTEXT-MIB module.
Finally, the NMS can monitor the power attributes with the POWER-
ATTRIBUTES-MIB MIB module, which reuses the entPhysicalIndex to index
the Energy Object.
7. Link with the Other IETF MIBs
7.1. Link with the ENTITY-MIB and the ENTITY-SENSOR MIB
[RFC6933] defines the ENTITY-MIB module that lists the physical
entities of a networking device (router, switch, etc.) and those
physical entities indexed by entPhysicalIndex. From an energy-
management standpoint, the physical entities that consume or produce
energy are of interest.
[RFC3433] defines the ENTITY-SENSOR MIB module that provides a
standardized way of obtaining information (current value of the
sensor, operational status of the sensor, and the data-unit
precision) from sensors embedded in networking devices. Sensors are
associated with each index of the entPhysicalIndex of the ENTITY-MIB
[RFC6933]. While the focus of the Monitoring and Control MIB for
Power and Energy is on measurement of power usage of networking
equipment indexed by the ENTITY-MIB, this MIB supports a customized
Chandramouli, et al. Standards Track [Page 19]
RFC 7460 Power/Energy Monitoring and Control MIB March 2015
power scale for power measurement and different Power States of
networking equipment and the functionality to configure the Power
States.
The Energy Objects are modeled by the entPhysicalIndex through the
entPhysicalEntity MIB object specified in the eoTable in the ENERGY-
OBJECT-CONTEXT-MIB MIB module [RFC7461].
The ENTITY-SENSOR MIB [RFC3433] does not have the ANSI C12.x accuracy
classes required for electricity (e.g., 1%, 2%, and 0.5% accuracy
classes). Indeed, entPhySensorPrecision [RFC3433] represents "The
number of decimal places of precision in fixed-point sensor values
returned by the associated entPhySensorValue object". The ANSI and
IEC standards are used for power measurement and these standards
require that we use an accuracy class, not the scientific-number
precision model specified in RFC3433. The eoPowerAccuracy MIB object
models this accuracy. Note that eoPowerUnitMultipler represents the
scale factor per IEC 62053-21 [IEC.62053-21] and IEC 62053-22
[IEC.62053-22], which is a more logical representation for power
measurements (compared to entPhySensorScale), with the mantissa and
the exponent values X * 10 ^ Y.
Power measurements specifying the qualifier 'UNITS' for each measured
value in watts are used in the LLDP-EXT-MED-MIB, Power Ethernet
[RFC3621], and UPS [RFC1628] MIBs. The same 'UNITS' qualifier is
used for the power measurement values.
One cannot assume that the ENTITY-MIB and ENTITY-SENSOR MIBs are
implemented for all Energy Objects that need to be monitored. A
typical example is a converged building gateway, which can monitor
other devices in a building and provides a proxy between SNMP and a
protocol like BACnet. Another example is the home energy controller.
In such cases, the eoPhysicalEntity value contains the zero value,
using the PhysicalIndexOrZero Textual Convention.
The eoPower is similar to entPhySensorValue [RFC3433] and the
eoPowerUnitMultipler is similar to entPhySensorScale.
7.2. Link with the ENTITY-STATE MIB
For each entity in the ENTITY-MIB [RFC6933], the ENTITY-STATE MIB
[RFC4268] specifies the operational states (entStateOper: unknown,
enabled, disabled, testing), the alarm (entStateAlarm: unknown,
underRepair, critical, major, minor, warning, indeterminate), and the
possible values of standby states (entStateStandby: unknown,
hotStandby, coldStandby, providingService).
Chandramouli, et al. Standards Track [Page 20]
RFC 7460 Power/Energy Monitoring and Control MIB March 2015
From a power-monitoring point of view, in contrast to the entity
operational states of entities, Power States are required, as
proposed in the Monitoring and Control MIB for Power and Energy.
Those Power States can be mapped to the different operational states
in the ENTITY-STATE MIB, if a formal mapping is required. For
example, the entStateStandby "unknown", "hotStandby", and
"coldStandby" states could map to the Power State "unknown", "ready",
"standby", respectively, while the entStateStandby "providingService"
could map to any "low" to "high" Power State.
7.3. Link with the POWER-OVER-ETHERNET MIB
The Power-over-Ethernet MIB [RFC3621] provides an energy monitoring
and configuration framework for power over Ethernet devices. RFC
3621 defines a port group entity on a switch for power monitoring and
management policy and does not use the entPhysicalIndex index.
Indeed, pethMainPseConsumptionPower is indexed by the
pethMainPseGroupIndex, which has no mapping with the
entPhysicalIndex.
If the Power-over-Ethernet MIB [RFC3621] is supported, the Energy
Object eoethPortIndex and eoethPortGrpIndex contain the
pethPsePortIndex and pethPsePortGroupIndex, respectively. However,
one cannot assume that the Power-over-Ethernet MIB is implemented for
most or all Energy Objects. In such cases, the eoethPortIndex and
eoethPortGrpIndex values contain the zero value, via the new
PethPsePortIndexOrZero and PethPsePortGroupIndexOrZero TCs.
In either case, the entPhysicalIndex MIB object is used as the unique
Energy Object index.
Note that, even though the Power-over-Ethernet MIB [RFC3621] was
created after the ENTITY-SENSOR MIB [RFC3433], it does not reuse the
precision notion from the ENTITY-SENSOR MIB, i.e., the
entPhySensorPrecision MIB object.
7.4. Link with the UPS MIB
To protect against unexpected power disruption, data centers and
buildings make use of Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS). To
protect critical assets, a UPS can be restricted to a particular
subset or domain of the network. UPS usage typically lasts only for
a finite period of time, until normal power supply is restored.
Planning is required to decide on the capacity of the UPS based on
output power and duration of probable power outage. To properly
provision UPS power in a data center or building, it is important to
Chandramouli, et al. Standards Track [Page 21]
RFC 7460 Power/Energy Monitoring and Control MIB March 2015
first understand the total demand required to support all the
entities in the site. This demand can be assessed and monitored via
the Monitoring and Control MIB for Power and Energy.
The UPS MIB [RFC1628] provides information on the state of the UPS
network. Implementation of the UPS MIB is useful at the aggregate
level of a data center or a building. The MIB module contains
several groups of variables:
- upsIdent: Identifies the UPS entity (name, model, etc.).
- upsBattery group: Indicates the battery state (upsbatteryStatus,
upsEstimatedMinutesRemaining, etc.)
- upsInput group: Characterizes the input load to the UPS (number
of input lines, voltage, current, etc.).
- upsOutput: Characterizes the output from the UPS (number of
output lines, voltage, current, etc.)
- upsAlarms: Indicates the various alarm events.
The measurement of power in the UPS MIB is in volts, amperes, and
watts. The units of power measurement are root mean square (RMS)
volts and RMS amperes. They are not based on the
EntitySensorDataScale and EntitySensorDataPrecision of ENTITY-SENSOR-
MIB.
Both the Monitoring and Control MIB for Power and Energy and the UPS
MIB may be implemented on the same UPS SNMP agent, without conflict.
In this case, the UPS device itself is the Energy Object and any of
the UPS meters or submeters are the Energy Objects with a possible
relationship as defined in [RFC7326].
7.5. Link with the LLDP and LLDP-MED MIBs
The Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) is a Data Link Layer
protocol used by network devices to advertise their identities,
capabilities, and interconnections on a LAN network.
The Media Endpoint Discovery is an enhancement of LLDP, known as
LLDP-MED. The LLDP-MED enhancements specifically address voice
applications. LLDP-MED covers six basic areas: capability discovery,
LAN speed and duplex discovery, network policy discovery, location
identification discovery, inventory discovery, and power discovery.
Chandramouli, et al. Standards Track [Page 22]
RFC 7460 Power/Energy Monitoring and Control MIB March 2015
Of particular interest to the current MIB module is the power
discovery, which allows the endpoint device (such as a PoE phone) to
convey power requirements to the switch. In power discovery,
LLDP-MED has four Type-Length-Values (TLVs): power type, power
source, power priority, and power value. Respectively, those TLVs
provide information related to the type of power (power sourcing
entity versus powered device), how the device is powered (from the
line, from a backup source, from external power source, etc.), the
power priority (how important is it that this device has power?), and
how much power the device needs.
The power priority specified in the LLDP-MED MIB [LLDP-MED-MIB]
actually comes from the Power-over-Ethernet MIB [RFC3621]. If the
Power-over-Ethernet MIB [RFC3621] is supported, the exact value from
the pethPsePortPowerPriority [RFC3621] is copied over into the
lldpXMedRemXPoEPDPowerPriority [LLDP-MED-MIB]; otherwise, the value
in lldpXMedRemXPoEPDPowerPriority is "unknown". From the Monitoring
and Control MIB for Power and Energy, it is possible to identify the
pethPsePortPowerPriority [RFC3621], via the eoethPortIndex and
eoethPortGrpIndex.
The lldpXMedLocXPoEPDPowerSource [LLDP-MED-MIB] is similar to
eoPowerMeasurementLocal in indicating if the power for an attached
device is local or from a remote device. If the LLDP-MED MIB is
supported, the following mapping can be applied to the
eoPowerMeasurementLocal: lldpXMedLocXPoEPDPowerSource fromPSE(2) and
local(3) can be mapped to false and true, respectively.
8. Structure of the MIB
The primary MIB object in the energyObjectMib MIB module is the
energyObjectMibObjects root. The eoPowerTable table of
energyObjectMibObjects describes the power measurement attributes of
an Energy Object entity. The identity of a device in terms of
uniquely identification of the Energy Object and its relationship to
other entities in the network are addressed in [RFC7461].
Logically, this MIB module is a sparse extension of the ENERGY-
OBJECT-CONTEXT-MIB module [RFC7461]. Thus, the following
requirements that are applied to [RFC7461] are also applicable. As a
requirement for this MIB module, [RFC7461] SHOULD be implemented and
as Module Compliance of ENTITY-MIB V4 [RFC6933] with respect to
entity4CRCompliance MUST be supported, which requires four MIB
objects: entPhysicalIndex, entPhysicalClass, entPhysicalName, and
entPhysicalUUID MUST be implemented.
Chandramouli, et al. Standards Track [Page 23]
RFC 7460 Power/Energy Monitoring and Control MIB March 2015
The eoMeterCapabilitiesTable is useful to enable applications to
determine the capabilities supported by the local management agent.
This table indicates the energy-monitoring MIB groups that are
supported by the local management system. By reading the value of
this object, it is possible for applications to know which tables
contain the information and are usable without walking through the
table and querying every element that involves a trial-and-error
process.
The power measurement of an Energy Object contains information
describing its power usage (eoPower) and its current Power State
(eoPowerOperState). In addition to power usage, additional
information describing the units of measurement (eoPowerAccuracy,
eoPowerUnitMultiplier), how power usage measurement was obtained
(eoPowerMeasurementCaliber), the source of power measurement
(eoPowerMeasurementLocal), and the type of power (eoPowerCurrentType)
are described.
An Energy Object may contain an optional eoEnergyTable to describe
energy measurement information over time.
An Energy Object may contain an optional eoACPwrAttributesTable table
(specified in the POWER-ATTRIBUTES-MIB module) that describes the
electrical characteristics associated with the current Power State
and usage.
An Energy Object may also contain optional battery information
associated with this entity.

DESCRIPTION
"This object indicates the power measured for the Energy
Object. For alternating current, this value is obtained
as an average over fixed number of AC cycles. This value
is specified in SI units of watts with the magnitude of
watts (milliwatts, kilowatts, etc.) indicated separately
in eoPowerUnitMultiplier. The accuracy of the measurement
is specified in eoPowerAccuracy. The direction of power
flow is indicated by the sign on eoPower. If the Energy
Object is consuming power, the eoPower value will be
positive. If the Energy Object is producing power, the
eoPower value will be negative.
The eoPower MUST be less than or equal to the maximum
power that can be consumed at the Power State specified
by eoPowerState.
The eoPowerMeasurementCaliber object specifies how the
usage value reported by eoPower was obtained. The eoPower
value must report 0 if the eoPowerMeasurementCaliber is

- unknown(2): Indicates that the way the usage was
determined is unknown. In some cases, entities report
aggregate power on behalf of another device. In such
cases it is not known whether the usage reported is
actual, estimated, or static.
- actual(3): Indicates that the reported usage was
measured by the entity through some hardware or direct
physical means. The usage data reported is not estimated
or static but is the measured consumption rate.
- estimated(4): Indicates that the usage was not
determined by physical measurement. The value is a
derivation based upon the device type, state, and/or
current utilization using some algorithm or heuristic. It
is presumed that the entity's state and current
configuration were used to compute the value.
- static(5): Indicates that the usage was not determined
by physical measurement, algorithm, or derivation. The

This MIB is used to report AC power attributes in devices.
The table is a sparse augmentation of the eoPowerTable table
from the energyObjectMib module. Both three-phase and
single-phase power configurations are supported.
As a requirement for this MIB module, RFC 7461 SHOULD be
implemented.
Module Compliance of ENTITY-MIB v4 with respect to
entity4CRCompliance MUST be supported which requires
implementation of four MIB objects: entPhysicalIndex,
entPhysicalClass, entPhysicalName, and entPhysicalUUID."

10. Security Considerations
There are a number of management objects defined in this MIB module
with a MAX-ACCESS clause of read-write and/or read-create. Such
objects may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network
environments. The support for SET operations in a non-secure
environment without proper protection opens devices to attack. These
are the tables and objects and their sensitivity/vulnerability:
- Unauthorized changes to the eoPowerOperState (via the
eoPowerAdminState ) MAY disrupt the power settings of the
differentEnergy Objects and, therefore, the state of
functionality of the respective Energy Objects.
Chandramouli, et al. Standards Track [Page 63]
RFC 7460 Power/Energy Monitoring and Control MIB March 2015
- Unauthorized changes to the eoEnergyParametersTable MAY disrupt
energy measurement in the eoEnergyTable table.
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/SET (read/change/create/delete) the objects in this
MIB module.
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.
In certain situations, energy and power monitoring can reveal
sensitive information about individuals' activities and habits.
Implementors of this specification should use appropriate privacy
protections as discussed in Section 9 of RFC 6988 and monitoring of
individuals and homes should only occur with proper authorization.
11. IANA Considerations
The MIB modules in this document use the following IANA-assigned
OBJECT IDENTIFIER values recorded in the SMI Numbers registry:
Descriptor OBJECT IDENTIFIER value
---------- -----------------------
IANAPowerStateSet-MIB { mib-2 228 }
energyObjectMIB { mib-2 229 }
powerAttributesMIB { mib-2 230 }
Chandramouli, et al. Standards Track [Page 64]
RFC 7460 Power/Energy Monitoring and Control MIB March 2015
11.1. IANAPowerStateSet-MIB Module
The initial set of Power State Sets are specified in [RFC7326]. IANA
maintains a Textual Convention PowerStateSet in the
IANAPowerStateSet-MIB module (see Section 9.1), with the initial set
of Power State Sets and the Power States within those Power State
Sets as proposed in the [RFC7326]. The current version of
PowerStateSet Textual Convention can be accessed
<http://www.iana.org/assignments/power-state-sets>.
New assignments (and potential deprecation) to Power State Sets shall
be administered by IANA and the guidelines and procedures are
specified in [RFC7326], and will, as a consequence, update the
PowerStateSet Textual Convention.
