A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. This draft is a work item of the IP Security Protocol Working Group of the IETF. Title : IPSec Monitoring MIB Author(s) : T. Jenkins Filename : draft-ietf-ipsec-mib-02.txt Pages : 58 Date : 11-Nov-98 This document defines monitoring and status MIBs for IPSec. It does not define MIBs that may be used for configuring IPSec implementations or for providing low-level diagnostic or debugging information. Further, it does not provide policy information. Those MIBs may be defined in later versions of this document or in other documents. The purpose of the MIBs is to allow system administrators to determine operating conditions and perform system operational level monitoring of the IPSec portion of their network. Statistics are provided as well. The IPSec MIB definitions use a virtual tunnel model, of which there can be configured permanent tunnels or transient tunnels. The virtual tunnel model is used to allow the use of IPSec from a virtual private networking (VPN) point of view. This allows users of IPSec based products to get similar monitoring and statistical information from an IPSec based VPN as they would from a VPN based on other technologies, such as Frame Relay. Finally, the objects defined perhaps represent a somewhat simplified view of security associations. This is done for the purposes of expediency and for simplification of presentation. Also, some information about SAs has been intentionally left out to reduce the security risk if SNMP traffic becomes compromised. Internet-Drafts are available by anonymous FTP.

A URL for the Internet-Draft is: ftp://ftp.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ipsec-mib-02.txt Internet-Drafts directories are located at: Africa: ftp.is.co.za Europe: ftp.nordu.net ftp.nic.it Pacific Rim: munnari.oz.au US East Coast: ftp.ietf.org US West Coast: ftp.isi.edu Internet-Drafts are also available by mail. Send a message to: mailserv@ietf.org. In the body type: "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ipsec-mib-02.txt". NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE" command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with "multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on how to manipulate these messages. Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the Internet-Draft.
No recognizable part in multipart/alternative
