1. Introduction
This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB)
for use with network management protocols in the Internet community.
In particular, it describes managed objects for information related
to a Fibre Channel network's Zone Server.
This memo was previously approved by INternational Committee for
Information Technology Standards (INCITS) Task Group T11.5
(http://www.t11.org); this document is a product of the IETF's IMSS
working group.
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14, 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 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].
3. Overview of Fibre Channel
3.1. General Overview
The Fibre Channel (FC) is logically a bidirectional point-to-point
serial data channel, structured for high performance. Fibre Channel
provides a general transport vehicle for higher-level protocols such
as Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) command sets, the High-
Performance Parallel Interface (HIPPI) data framing, IP (Internet
Protocol), IEEE 802.2, and others.
Physically, Fibre Channel is an interconnection of multiple
communication points, called N_Ports, interconnected either by a
switching network, called a Fabric, or by a point-to-point link. A
Fibre Channel "node" consists of one or more N_Ports. A Fabric may
consist of multiple Interconnect Elements, some of which are
DeSanti, et al. Standards Track [Page 3]
RFC 4936 FC Zone Server MIB August 2007
switches. An N_Port connects to the Fabric via a port on a switch
called an F_Port. When multiple FC nodes are connected to a single
port on a switch via an "Arbitrated Loop" topology, the switch port
is called an FL_Port, and the nodes' ports are called NL_Ports. The
term Nx_Port is used to refer to either an N_Port or an NL_Port. The
term Fx_Port is used to refer to either an F_Port or an FL_Port. A
switch port, which is interconnected to another switch port via an
Inter-Switch Link (ISL), is called an E_Port. A B_Port connects a
bridge device with an E_Port on a switch; a B_Port provides a subset
of E_Port functionality.
Many Fibre Channel components, including the Fabric, each node, and
most ports, have globally unique names. These globally unique names
are typically formatted as World Wide Names (WWNs). More information
on WWNs can be found in [FC-FS]. WWNs are expected to be persistent
across agent and unit resets.
Fibre Channel frames contain 24-bit address identifiers that identify
the frame's source and destination ports. Each FC port has both an
address identifier and a WWN. For an Nx_Port, its WWN is called a
N_Port_Name and its address identifier is called an N_Port_ID. When
a Fabric is in use, the FC address identifiers are dynamic and are
assigned by a switch. Each octet of a 24-bit address represents a
level in an address hierarchy, with a Domain_ID being the highest
level of the hierarchy.
3.2. Zoning
Zones within a Fabric provide a mechanism to control frame delivery
between Nx_Ports ("Hard Zoning") or to expose selected views of Name
Server information ("Soft Zoning").
Communication is only possible when the communicating endpoints are
members of a common zone. This technique is similar to virtual
private networks in that the Fabric has the ability to group devices
into Zones.
Hard zoning and soft zoning are two different means of realizing
this. Hard zoning is enforced in the Fabric (i.e., switches) whereas
soft zoning is enforced at the endpoints (e.g., host bus adapters
(HBAs)) by relying on the endpoints to not send traffic to an
N_Port_ID not obtained from the Name Server with a few exceptions for
well-known N_Port_IDs used to bootstrap the Fabric (e.g., talk to the
Name Server).
Administrators create Zones to increase network security and to
prevent data loss or corruption by controlling access between devices
or user groups. Zones may be specifically used to create:
DeSanti, et al. Standards Track [Page 4]
RFC 4936 FC Zone Server MIB August 2007
a) Barriers between devices that use different operating systems.
It is often critical to separate servers and storage devices
with different operating systems because accidental transfer of
information from one to another may delete or corrupt data;
b) Logical subsets of closed user groups. Administrators may
authorize access rights to specific Zones for specific user
groups, thereby protecting confidential data from unauthorized
access;
c) Groups of devices that are separate from devices in the rest of
a Fabric. Zones allow certain processes to be performed on
devices in a group without interrupting devices in other
groups; or
d) Temporary access between devices for specific purposes.
Administrators may remove Zone restrictions temporarily, then
restore Zone restrictions to perform normal processes.
3.3. Zoning Configuration and Management
Zones are configured via a Fabric Zone Server, using requests defined
in [FC-GS-5]), or via the T11-FC-ZONE-SERVER-MIB module defined in
this memo, or via some other mechanism.
An Nx_Port may be a member of one or more Zones. Zone membership may
be specified by:
a) The N_Port_Name of the Nx_Port connected to the switch;
b) The N_Port_ID assigned during Fabric Login;
c) The Node_Name associated with the Nx_Port; note that the
Node_Name may include more than one Nx_Port;
d) The F_Port_Name of the Fx_Port to which the Nx_Port is
connected; or
e) The domain identifier (Domain_ID) and physical port number of
the Switch Port to which the Nx_Port is attached.
A Fabric's Zone Server may be used to create a Zone by specifying the
Zone Members. One or more Zones may be collected into a Zone Set,
and a Zone may be a member of more than one Zone Set. A Zone Set
creates a collection of Zones that may be activated or deactivated as
a single entity across all Switches in a Fabric (e.g., having two
Zone Sets, one for normal operation, and a second for backup during
off-hours). Only one Zone Set may be activated at one time.
Other terminology defined in [FC-GS-5] is: an Active Zone Set is the
Zone Set currently enforced by a Fabric; a Zone Set Database is a
database of the Zone Sets available to be activated within a Fabric;
DeSanti, et al. Standards Track [Page 5]
RFC 4936 FC Zone Server MIB August 2007
and a Zoning Database is a generic term used to indicate a
combination of an Active Zone Set and a Zone Set Database.
Two distinct sets of management requests, Enhanced and Basic, are
defined in [FC-GS-5] to interact with a Fabric Zone Server. Basic
Zoning provides compatibility with [FC-GS-4] and earlier versions of
Fibre Channel's Generic Services specification. If all the Switches
in a Fabric support the Enhanced request set, then it may be used to
manage zoning; otherwise, only the Basic request set may be used, in
order to support backward compatibility.
In the context of Enhanced Zoning Management, a management action
(i.e., write access to the Zoning Database) to the Zone Server can
only occur inside a server session. A server session is set up using
the FC-GS-5's Common Transport (CT) protocol defined in [FC-GS-5]. A
server session is delimited by CT protocol requests, Server Session
Begin (SSB) and Server Session End (SSE), which are directed to the
Management Service and which have the GS_Subtype specifying the Zone
Server. Query requests that result in read access to the Zoning
Database are not required to be issued inside a server session,
although the information returned is not guaranteed to be consistent
when supplied outside of a server session.
When setting up a server session for Enhanced Zoning, the Zone Server
is required to lock the Fabric. This ensures serialized management
access to the Zoning Database and guarantees a deterministic
behavior. The switch that receives the SSB request is called the
'managing' switch, and it tries to lock the Fabric using the Fabric
Management Session Protocol (see section 10.6 of [FC-SW-4]) by
sending an Acquire Change Authorization (ACA) request to all other
switches in the Fabric. If any switch(es) respond with an SW_RJT
indicating failure, then the attempt to lock the Fabric fails and the
SSB request is rejected. If all the other switches respond with an
SW_ACC indicating success, then the Fabric is locked and the server
session can be established. The subsequent SSE request causes a
Release Change Authorization (RCA) request to all other switches, and
thus, the Fabric to be unlocked.
For at least one application other than Zoning, the managing switch
uses a different type of request to lock the Fabric, i.e., it sends
an Enhanced Acquire Change Authorization (EACA) request to all other
switches in the Fabric. An EACA reserves local resources associated
with a designated application to ensure the consistency of that
application's data. The application is identified in the EACA using
an Application_ID (see Table 116 in [FC-SW-4]). A lock that was
established via an EACA is released using an Enhanced Release Change
Authorization (ERCA) request.
DeSanti, et al. Standards Track [Page 6]
RFC 4936 FC Zone Server MIB August 2007
Changes requested in a Zoning Database by Enhanced Zoning commands
persist after the end of the Zoning (server) session only if the
commands are followed, within the same server session, by a Commit
Zone Changes (CMIT) request. On receipt of a CMIT request, the Zone
Server checks that the Zoning Database as modified by the outstanding
changes will pass the applicable consistency checks, and then
distributes it to all other switches in the Fabric using a Stage
Fabric Configuration Update (SFC) request. If all other switches
accept the SFC request, then the "managing" switch sends an Update
Fabric Configuration (UFC) Request to each other switch, and the
staged Zoning Database thereby becomes the Fabric's (active) Zoning
Database.
The latest standard for an interconnecting Fabric containing multiple
Fabric Switch elements is [FC-SW-4]. [FC-SW-4] carries forward the
earlier specification for the operation of a single Fabric in a
physical infrastructure, and augments it with the definition of
Virtual Fabrics and with the specification of how multiple Virtual
Fabrics can operate within one (or more) physical infrastructures.
The use of Virtual Fabrics provides for each frame to be tagged in
its header to indicate which one of several Virtual Fabrics that
frame is being transmitted on. All frames entering a particular
"Core Switch" [FC-SW-4] (i.e., a physical switch) on the same Virtual
Fabric are processed by the same "Virtual Switch" within that Core
switch.
4. Relationship to Other MIBs
The Fibre Channel Management MIB [RFC4044] defines basic information
for Fibre Channel hosts and switches, including extensions to the
standard IF-MIB [RFC2863] for Fibre Channel interfaces.
This MIB extends beyond [RFC4044] to cover the management of Fibre
Channel Zoning Servers, both for Basic Zoning Management and for
Enhanced Zoning Management, as defined in the FC-GS-5 specification.
This MIB imports some common Textual Conventions from T11-TC-MIB,
defined in [RFC4439]. It also imports a TC from T11-FC-NAME-SERVER-
MIB, defined in [RFC4438], plus InetAddressType and InetAddress from
INET-ADDRESS-MIB [RFC4001]. It also includes a reference to
snmpCommunitySecurityName defined in [RFC3584].
DeSanti, et al. Standards Track [Page 7]
RFC 4936 FC Zone Server MIB August 2007
5. MIB Overview
This document defines two MIB modules: T11-FC-FABRIC-LOCK-MIB and
T11-FC-ZONE-SERVER-MIB.
T11-FC-FABRIC-LOCK-MIB supports FC-GS-5's generic capability of
locking the Fabric for a particular "application" such as (the
management of) Enhanced Zoning. The MIB contains one table in which
each entry represents a particular switch being the 'managing' switch
of a particular application's Fabric lock.
T11-FC-ZONE-SERVER-MIB is specific to the operation of Zone Servers,
which can operate in Basic mode or in Enhanced mode. This MIB module
imports the T11NsGs4RejectReasonCode textual convention defined in
T11-FC-NAME-SERVER-MIB [RFC4438].
5.1. Fibre Channel Management Instance
A Fibre Channel management instance is defined in [RFC4044] as a
separable managed instance of Fibre Channel functionality. Fibre
Channel functionality may be grouped into Fibre Channel management
instances in whatever way is most convenient for the
implementation(s). For example, one such grouping accommodates a
single SNMP agent having multiple AgentX [RFC2741] sub-agents, with
each sub-agent implementing a different Fibre Channel management
instance.
The object, fcmInstanceIndex, is IMPORTed from the FC-MGMT-MIB
[RFC4044] as the index value to uniquely identify each Fibre Channel
management instance, for example, within the same SNMP context
([RFC3411], section 3.3.1).
5.2. Switch Index
The FC-MGMT-MIB [RFC4044] defines the fcmSwitchTable as a table of
information about Fibre Channel switches that are managed by Fibre
Channel management instances. Each Fibre Channel management instance
can manage one or more Fibre Channel switches. The Switch Index,
fcmSwitchIndex, is IMPORTed from the FC-MGMT-MIB as the index value
to uniquely identify a Fibre Channel switch amongst those (one or
more) managed by the same Fibre Channel management instance.
5.3. Fabric Index
Whether operating on a physical Fabric (i.e., without Virtual
Fabrics) or within a Virtual Fabric, the operation of a Zone Server
within a Fabric is identical. Therefore, this MIB defines all
Fabric-related information in tables that are INDEXed by an arbitrary
DeSanti, et al. Standards Track [Page 8]
RFC 4936 FC Zone Server MIB August 2007
integer, named a "Fabric Index", having the syntax, T11FabricIndex,
which is IMPORTed from the T11-TC-MIB [RFC4439]. When a device is
connected to a single physical Fabric, without use of any Virtual
Fabrics, the value of this Fabric Index will always be 1. In an
environment of multiple virtual and/or physical Fabrics, this index
provides a means to distinguish one Fabric from another.
It is quite possible, and may even be likely, that a Fibre Channel
switch will have ports connected to multiple virtual and/or physical
Fabrics. Thus, in order to simplify a management protocol query
concerning all the Fabrics to which a single switch is connected,
fcmSwitchIndex will be listed before an object with FabricIndex as
its syntax when both appear in the same INDEX clause.
5.4. Locking the Fabric
The T11-FC-FABRIC-LOCK-MIB module provides for the management of
locks on a Fibre Channel Fabric. A Fibre Channel Fabric lock is used
to ensure serialized access to some types of management data related
to a Fabric, e.g., the Fabric's Zoning Database.
Some (managing) applications obtain a lock by initiating server
sessions and the Fabric is locked so as to reserve local resources in
each Switch. For this usage, the managing switch sends an Acquire
Change Authorization (ACA) request to other switches in order to lock
the Fabric.
For some other applications, a managing switch locks the Fabric using
an Enhanced Acquire Change Authorization (EACA) request, which
identifies the application on whose behalf the Fabric is being locked
with an Application_ID. In this case, only local resources
associated with the designated application are reserved.
Locks established via ACAs and via EACAs are both represented in the
t11FLockTable in the T11-FC-FABRIC-LOCK-MIB. The Application_ID
provided by the EACA serves to distinguish between multiple
concurrent locks established by EACAs. In order to use this same
mechanism to distinguish a lock established via an ACA from each of
those established via EACAs, an additional (special) value of
Application_ID has been assigned [APPL-ID] for use by this MIB
module. Specifically, this newly assigned value will never be used
to indicate an Application locked by an EACA, and therefore this MIB
module uses it to uniquely distinguish a lock established via an ACA.
In other words, with this additional assignment, an Application_ID
value can be used to uniquely identify any active lock amongst all
those established (on the same Fabric) either by an EACA or an ACA.
DeSanti, et al. Standards Track [Page 9]
RFC 4936 FC Zone Server MIB August 2007
5.5. Basic and Enhanced Modes
The t11ZsServerOperationMode object indicates whether a Fabric's Zone
Server is operating in Basic mode or Enhanced mode. These two modes
have a sufficient amount of commonality to make it worthwhile to have
one set of MIB objects that are used for the subset of functionality
that is common to both modes. To accommodate the differences,
additional MIB objects are defined.
For Enhanced mode, the additional objects are defined in a group,
t11ZsEnhancedModeGroup, which is only required to be implemented in a
Zone Server capable of supporting Enhanced mode. The objects
specific to Basic mode are always (even in Enhanced mode) expected to
be implemented, but when in Enhanced mode, their values are either
restricted or do not affect current operations, e.g.,
- an example of "restricted" is: the distribution of updates to the
Zone Server database throughout the Fabric has to be requested
explicitly in Basic mode; this functionality is provided in the
MIB by the t11ZsServerDistribute object. In contrast, in Enhanced
mode, the distribution is an implicit part of the commit function
which is initiated using the t11ZsServerCommit object. Thus, when
operating in Enhanced mode, t11ZsServerDistribute has a fixed
value, and when operating in Basic mode, t11ZsServerCommit has a
fixed value.
- an example of "do not affect current operations" is:
t11ZsServerHardZoning, which specifies whether a switch enforces
hard Zoning on a Fabric when in Basic mode. This object is
instantiated and could even be modified while in Enhanced mode,
but its value only takes effect when in Basic mode. (Note that in
Enhanced mode, t11ZsActiveZoneHardZoning specifies whether hard
Zoning is enabled on a particular Zone.)
5.6. Persistent Storage
A Zone Server Database for a given Fabric consists of the combination
of many of the tables defined in this MIB module. In order to ensure
that such a Database is consistent, this MIB module defines just one
object (t11ZsServerDatabaseStorageType) with a syntax of StorageType,
whose value for a given Fabric is defined to be applicable to all of
that Fabric's Zone Server Database as defined in all the tables in
this MIB module.
DeSanti, et al. Standards Track [Page 10]
RFC 4936 FC Zone Server MIB August 2007
5.7. The Active Zone Set and the Zone Set Database
As described in FC-GS-5 [FC-GS-5], one of the Zone Sets in the Zone
Set Database can be activated to become the Active Zone Set, i.e.,
the one which is enforced on the Fabric. Get/Add/Remove-type
requests are defined in FC-GS-5 to allow access to the Zone Set
Database. When the Zone Set Database is modified, such modifications
don't affect the Active Zone Set unless and until a subsequent
activation. Interaction directly with the Active Zone Set is also
possible via the FC-GS-5 requests: 'Activate Direct' and 'Get Active
Zone Set'. This is illustrated in the following rendition of Figure
15 of [FC-GS-5]:
Zone Set Database
+------------------+
| +--------------+ |
Get | | Zone Set A | |
<=========| |(zones, zone | |
| | members,etc.)| |
| +--------------+ |
Add/ | | Zone Set B | | Activate +------------+
Remove | +------------+ | Zone Set | |
=========>| |Zone Set C| |================>| |
| +----------+ | | Active |

| Set |
Get Active Zone Set | (enforced) |
<==============================================| |
| |
Activate Direct | |
==============================================>| |
| |
Deactivate | |
==============================================>| |
+------------+
The T11-FC-ZONE-SERVER-MIB module, defined in section 7, models the
above structure by having one set of MIB tables for the Zone Set
Database and a separate set for the Active Zone Set, specifically:
- seven tables for the Zone Set Database: t11ZsSetTable,
t11ZsZoneTable, t11ZsSetZoneTable, t11ZsAliasTable,
t11ZsZoneMemberTable, t11ZsAttribBlockTable and t11ZsAttribTable.
- four tables for the Active Zone Set: t11ZsActiveTable,
t11ZsActiveZoneTable, t11ZsActiveZoneMemberTable and
t11ZsActiveAttribTable.
DeSanti, et al. Standards Track [Page 11]
RFC 4936 FC Zone Server MIB August 2007
5.8. Conformance Groups
5.8.1. The t11ZsBasicGroup
This group contains objects to retrieve and to modify the Zoning
configuration of a Zone Server capable of operating in Basic mode.
5.8.2. The t11ZsEnhancedModeGroup
This group contains objects to retrieve and to modify the Zoning
configuration of a Zone Server capable of operating in Enhanced mode.
5.8.3. The t11ZsActivateGroup
This group contains objects that allow a Zone Set to be activated via
SNMP SetRequests and provide the status and result of such an
activation.
5.8.4. The t11ZsStatisticsGroup
This group contains objects for collecting Zone Server statistics.
5.8.5. The t11ZsNotificationGroup
This group contains notifications for monitoring: Zone merge
successes and failures, Zone Server request rejections, changes in
the Default Zoning behavior, and the success or failure of an attempt
to activate or deactivate a Zone Set.
5.8.5.1. Flow-Control for Notifications
When defining SNMP notifications for events that occur in the data-
plane, the maximum frequency of their generation needs to be
considered. Unless there is some limiting factor, such notifications
need to be flow-controlled in some way, e.g., defined such that after
some maximum number have occurred within a specified time interval,
further notifications are suppressed for some subsequent time
interval. However, as and when such a suppression occurs, the
Network Management System (NMS) that didn't receive the notifications
(because they were suppressed) needs an indication of how many were
suppressed. Therefore, an additional Counter32 object needs to be
defined, and/or a new type of notification needs to be defined for
use at the end of the interval. While this is extra complexity, it
is necessary for notifications that need to be flow-controlled.
In contrast, for notifications such as all those defined in this MIB
module, which are generated due to control-plane events (and are not
able to start a chain reaction):
DeSanti, et al. Standards Track [Page 12]
RFC 4936 FC Zone Server MIB August 2007
- estimating the maximum number that could be generated per unit time
for each type of notification is too simplistic. For example, it's
unreasonable to ask how many of the t11ZsDefZoneChangeNotify
notifications can be generated in a time interval because it
depends on several factors: how many operators can be re-
configuring the network at the same time? and how frequently can
each of them change the Default Zone Setting?
- the extra complexity of flow-controlling these types of
notifications is not warranted.
5.8.6. The t11ZsNotificationControlGroup
This group contains objects that allow each type of notification (in
the t11ZsNotificationGroup group) to be independently enabled or
disabled. It also contains objects that are used to include useful
information in those notifications; these objects are defined as
read-only to allow the values contained in the most recent
notification to be queried.

DESCRIPTION
"The MIB module for the management of locks on a Fibre
Channel Fabric. A Fibre Channel Fabric lock is used to
ensure serialized access to some types of management data
related to a Fabric, e.g., the Fabric's Zoning Database.
Some (managing) applications generate Fabric locks by
initiating server sessions. Server sessions are
defined generically in FC-GS-5 to represent a collection of
one or more requests to the session's server, e.g., to the
Zone Server. Such a session is started by a Server Session
Begin (SSB) request, and terminated by a Server Session End
(SSE) request. The switch receiving the SSB is called the
'managing' switch. Some applications require the
'managing' switch to lock the Fabric for the particular
application, e.g., for Enhanced Zoning, before it can
respond successfully to the SSB. On receipt of the
subsequent SSE, the lock is released. For this usage, the
managing switch sends an Acquire Change Authorization (ACA)
request to other switches to lock the Fabric.
For some other applications, a managing switch locks the
Fabric using an Enhanced Acquire Change Authorization (EACA)
request, which identifies the application on whose behalf
the Fabric is being locked with an Application_ID.
Fabric locks can also be requested more directly, e.g.,
through the use of this MIB. In these situations, the term
'managing' switch is used to indicate the switch that
receives such a request and executes it by issuing either
ACA or EACA requests to other switches in the Fabric.
This MIB module defines information about the 'managing'
switch for currently-active Fabric locks.

2) an in-progress attempt, requested via SNMP, to set up
a lock, or
3) a failed attempt, requested via SNMP, to set up a lock.
If an entry is created via t11FLockRowStatus, but the
attempt to obtain the lock fails, then the entry continues
to exist until it is deleted via t11FLockRowStatus, or
it is overwritten by the lock being established via
a means other than SNMP. However, rows created via
t11FLockRowStatus are not retained over restarts."

DESCRIPTION
"Each entry contains information specific to a current
Fabric lock set up by a particular 'managing' switch on a
particular Fabric. The 'managing switch' is identified by
values of fcmInstanceIndex and fcmSwitchIndex.
Server sessions for several different types of servers
are defined in FC-GS-5. The behavior of a server with
DeSanti, et al. Standards Track [Page 15]
RFC 4936 FC Zone Server MIB August 2007
respect to commands received within a server session is
specified for each type of server. For some types,
parameter changes can only be made within the context of a
session, and the setting up of a session requires that the
Fabric be locked. A Fabric is locked by one switch, called
the 'managing' switch, sending Acquire Change Authorization
(ACA) requests to all other switches in the Fabric.
For other applications, a Fabric lock is established by the
'managing' switch sending Enhanced Acquire Change
Authorization (EACA) requests to other switches in the
Fabric. Each EACA request includes an Application_ID
value to identify the application requesting the lock.
For the benefit of this MIB module, a distinct value of
Application_ID has also been assigned/reserved (see
ANSI INCITS T11/06-679v0, titled 'FC-SW-5 Letter to
T11.5') as a means of distinguishing locks established via
Acquire Change Authorization (ACA) requests. This
additional assignment allows an Application_ID to be used to
uniquely identify any active lock amongst all those
established by either an EACA or an ACA.
Whenever a Fabric is locked, by the sending of either an ACA
or an EACA, a row gets created in the representation of this
table for the 'managing' switch.
In order to process SNMP SetRequests that make parameter
changes for the relevant types of servers (e.g., to the
Zoning Database), the SNMP agent must get serialized access
to the Fabric (for the relevant type of management data),
i.e., the Fabric must be locked by creating an entry in
this table via an SNMP SetRequest. Creating an entry in
this table via an SNMP SetRequest causes an ACA or an EACA
to be sent to all other switches in the Fabric. The value
of t11FLockApplicationID for such an entry determines
whether an ACA or an EACA is sent.
If an entry in this table is created by an SNMP SetRequest,
the value of the t11FLockInitiatorType object in that entry
will normally be 'snmp'. A row for which the value of
t11FLockInitiatorType is not 'snmp' cannot be modified
via SNMP. In particular, it cannot be deleted via
t11FLockRowStatus. Note that it's possible for a row to be
created by an SNMP SetRequest, but for the setup of the lock
to fail, and immediately thereafter be replaced by a lock
successfully set up by some other means; in such a case, the
value of t11FLockInitiatorType would change as and when the
DeSanti, et al. Standards Track [Page 16]
RFC 4936 FC Zone Server MIB August 2007
lock was set up by the other means, and so the row could
not thereafter be deleted via t11FLockRowStatus.
FC-GS-5 mentions various error situations in which a
Fabric lock is released so as to avoid a deadlock. In
such situations, the agent removes the corresponding row
in this table as and when the lock is released. This can
happen for all values of t11FLockInitiatorType."

DESCRIPTION
"The MIB module for the management of Fibre Channel Zoning
Servers, both for Basic Zoning Management and for Enhanced
DeSanti, et al. Standards Track [Page 24]
RFC 4936 FC Zone Server MIB August 2007
Zoning Management, as defined in the FC-GS-5 specification.
FC-GS-5 defines (in-band) management operations for
manipulating the Zone Set Database, some for use in Basic
mode (e.g., 'Add Zone Set (AZS)', etc.), and some for use in
Enhanced mode (e.g., Create Zone Set (CZS)', etc.). When
Enhanced Zoning Management is in use, FC-GS-5 requires that
these in-band management operations be rejected unless they
are issued within the context of a GS-5 server session. The
use of a server session ensures serialized access to the
Zoning Database since the Fabric lock for the Zone Server
must be obtained as a part of establishing the server
session to the Zone Server.
Thus, if and when this MIB is used for Enhanced Zoning
Management, SNMP SetRequests that request the modification
of zoning definitions must be serialized with respect to
the GS-5 requests to modify the Zoning Database. This is
achieved by requiring that an SNMP management application
must first obtain the Fabric lock for the Zone Server
before attempting to modify any zoning definitions. The
companion T11-FC-FABRIC-LOCK-MIB module is defined as a means
of obtaining the Fabric lock for the Zone Server (or any
other server).
In Enhanced Zoning Management, a Zone Server keeps track of
changes requested in the zoning definitions, but does not
update its Zone Set Database unless there is (and until
there is) a 'commit' operation. To model this behavior,
this MIB module assumes that a Zone Server (in Enhanced
mode) takes a snapshot of its Zone Set Database as and when
the Fabric lock (for the Zone Server application) is
obtained; this snapshot is used to create what is herein
called the 'copy' database. It is this 'copy' database
that is then updated by SNMP SetRequests (while the Fabric
is locked). If and when a 'commit' operation is requested
(while the Fabric is still locked), the 'copy' database is
then used to overwrite the previously committed contents of
the Zone Set Database, and the new Zone Set Database is
distributed to all other switches in the Fabric. When the
lock is released, any changes made that were not
'committed' are discarded.
When this MIB is used for Basic Zoning Management, the same
set of MIB objects as used for Enhanced mode are used to
make changes to the Database of a Zone Server on a
particular switch, but the changes take immediate effect at
that switch without an explicit commit. The distribution of
DeSanti, et al. Standards Track [Page 25]
RFC 4936 FC Zone Server MIB August 2007
those changes to Zone Servers on other switches in the
Fabric is subsequently requested through the use of a
separate set of MIB objects.
The management information specified in this MIB module
includes the Zoning Database for each of one or more Fibre
Channel Fabrics. A Zoning Database is a combination of the
Fabric's Zone Set Database and its Active Zone Set. The
Active Zone Set is the Zone Set currently enforced by the
Fabric; a Zone Set Database is a database of the Zone Sets
available to be activated within a Fabric. All the MIB
objects representing a Zone Set Database are modifiable at
any time (irrespective of the value of any RowStatus
object), whereas all objects representing the Active Zone
Set are always read-only (except to deactivate it and/or
activate a different one).

8. IANA Considerations
IANA has assigned two MIB OIDs: one for the T11-FC-FABRIC-LOCK-MIB
module (159) and one for the T11-FC-ZONE-SERVER-MIB module (160),
under the mib-2 subtree.
9. Security Considerations
There are many management objects defined in these MIB modules 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 can have a negative effect on network operations.
Specifically, unauthorized write access to *any* of the writable
objects in these MIB modules could cause unauthorized manipulation of
the Zoning information on a Zone Server, and/or the activation of an
unauthorized Active Zone Set in a Fabric. This could result in
allowing unauthorized connectivity, and/or denying authorized
connectivity, between hosts connected to the Fibre Channel network.
It could also cause the suppression of notifications (e.g., of
unauthorized operations), or the disruption of network operations due
to the generation of unwanted notifications.
Some of the readable objects in this MIB module (i.e., objects with a
MAX-ACCESS other than not-accessible) may be considered sensitive or
vulnerable in some network environments. It is thus important to
control even GET and/or NOTIFY access to these objects and possibly
to even encrypt the values of these objects when sending them over
the network via SNMP.
Unauthorized read access to any of the readable objects in the
t11ZsServerTable, t11ZsActiveZoneTable, t11ZsActiveZoneMemberTable,
or t11ZsActiveAttribTable tables would reveal information about the
DeSanti, et al. Standards Track [Page 79]
RFC 4936 FC Zone Server MIB August 2007
currently authorized connectivity between hosts connected to the
Fibre Channel network.
Unauthorized read access to any of the readable objects in the
t11ZsSetTable, t11ZsZoneTable, t11ZsSetZoneTable, t11ZsAliasTable,
t11ZsZoneMemberTable, t11ZsAttribBlockTable, or t11ZsAttribTable
tables would reveal information about potential/alternative
connectivity that could be authorized between hosts connected to the
Fibre Channel network.
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 implementors 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.
