1 Goals and objectives Project(s): Service OAM MIB Purpose of the contribution: Status update of the Service OAM MIB project Abstract: The SOAM MIB project continued work on the FM/TC and PM MIBs. Reviewed and incorporated SB comment for the FM/TC MIBs. Motion: Yes, four motions: two approved drafts, one to initiate a straw ballot and one to initiate a letter ballot
2 SOAM MIB Status Beijing, China, October 2010 Steve Mood Omnitron Sytems
3 History Ad Hoc was created during the Q meeting Project committee was created during the 2010 Q1 meeting FM/TC MIBs were submitted to Straw Ballot during the 2010 Q2 meeting FM/TC MIBs were submitted to a second Straw Ballot during the 2010 Q3 meeting FM/TC MIB to letter ballot meeting and PM MIB to straw ballot during the 2010 Q4 meeting
4 Original Scope of the Project A project in the Management Area Guiding principle –Keep the scope of the project small Concentrate on SOAM PM and extensions needed for SOAM FM –Ensure the project provides needed functionality and is small enough to be completed in a reasonable amount of time Documents –A document containing an SNMP MIB for configuring and monitoring SOAM PM capabilities in a Carrier Ethernet environment. –A document containing an SNMP MIB that includes the extensions needed to the IEEE CFM MIBs for the new functionality described in the SOAM FM document. –As a stretch goal, produce a document that includes a YANG model for NETCONF using the same source material used to create the SNMP MIBs for both PM and the FM extensions.
5 Rationale Creating an SNMP MIB would be beneficial –Help interoperability between vendor implementations Allow network operators the freedom to move away from NE-EMS single vendor solutions One NMS or EMS vendor can interoperate with multiple vendor NEs –Provide a baseline of functionality that supports FM & PM Implementation Agreements (IA)
6 Quarterly Status 14 Conference Calls were held during the last quarter Participation was good. Thanks for those who helped this work along:
7 Quarterly Status, cont. Large part of quarterly meetings covered the Performance Monitoring (PM) MIB –MIB was written –MIB was reviewed and updated Reviewed Straw Ballot Comments for Fault Management (FM) MIB (SB #2) –All the SB comments were reviewed and resolved –Received feedback from the MIB Doctors and their changes have been incorporated into MIB Started work on YANG model for NETCONF
8 SOAM MIB Project Timeline/Schedule 1Q 2010: Project Launch 2Q 2010: FM/TC MIB went to SB #1 3Q 2010: FM/TC MIB went to SB #2 4Q 2010: Move FM/TC MIB for LB, PM MIB for SB #1 1Q 2011: Move PM MIB for SB #2 (LB?), YANG FM model for SB #1 2Q 2011: Move PM MIB to LB, YANG FM model for SB #2, YANG PM model for SB #1 3Q 2011: Move YANG FM model for LB 4Q 2011: Move YANG PM model for LB
9 FM MIB SB #2 Results SB #2 Results –16 Yes votes, 5 Yes with comments, 1 No with comments, 5 Abstains –36 comments were received from 5 companies SB #1 Results (last quarter) –11 Yes, 5 Yes w/comments, 2 No w/comments, 5 abstains –104 comments were received from 8 companies SB comments incorporated into FM MIB –Consolidated commentsConsolidated comments –Updated FM/TC MIB postedUpdated FM/TC MIB posted
10 PM MIB Status The PM MIB was reviewed and completed during the quarterPM MIB –Global configuration area –DM (Delay Measurement) configuration, current statistic table, and historic statistic table –LM (Loss Measurement) configuration, current statistic table, and historic statistic table –Notification section: containing state alarms and threshold crossing notifications –Conformance & compliance section –Compiled successfully with MG-Soft and LIBSMI To be submitted to MIB Doctors next quarter
11 PM MIB Open Item – History table index Method 1: Most of the standard IETF MIBs have a fixed indexing structure where index 1 is the most recently completed measurement interval. –With 15 minutes intervals in 24 hours would result in index values Method 2: Index starts at 1 but increases overtime, so that the youngest completed measurement interval is the largest index number –Creates a sliding window of valid indexes. –With 15 minute intervals in 24 hours would result in index values (x)..(x+95) in a 24 hour period Comments?
12 History table index - Pros and Cons Method 1 (fixed index) –Pros Supported by standard IETF MIBs: DS1 (RFC2495/3895), DS3 (RFC2496/3896), SONET (RFC 3592), ADSL (RFC2662), HDLS2 (RFC4319) MIBs and RFC 2493/3593/3705 (HC-PerfHist-TC-MIB) Common method implemented with history tables –Cons Implementation of OSS very complicated, as a given index refers to different data at different points in time. It is very hard to ensure there are no race conditions when accessing multiple objects. Many OSS/NMS do not get this right
13 History table index - Pros and Cons Method 2 (sliding index) –Pros Simplifies OSS design Reduces data integrity problem of when is the data valid in a particular row Supported by some proprietary MIBs, such as Cisco IP-SLA (RTTMON) MIB, which is widely used –Cons Not generally supported by IETF MIBs
