DESCRIPTION
"This MIB module specifies the management information
required to manage Fabric Policies as defined by Fibre
Channel's FC-SP specification.
FC-SP uses the term 'Policy Objects', sometimes abbreviated
to just 'Objects', to refer to containers used to hold the
data by which Fabric Policies are specified/stored. This
obviously has the potential to cause confusion between
'Policy Objects' and 'MIB objects'. The DESCRIPTIONs in
this MIB module attempt to avoid such confusion by the use
of different adjectives and capitalization, even though such
mechanisms are less effective when used in descriptors.
Some types of Policy Objects contain multiple items of
information, each of which are held in the same format
within the Policy Object. In such cases, FC-SP uses the
term 'Entry' to describe each instance of the common format.
For example, FC-SP defines an Attribute Policy Object as
containing one or more 'Attribute Entries'. Again, this MIB
module attempts to avoid confusion by the use of adjectives
and capitalization to distinguish an Entry within a Policy
Object from an entry within a MIB table.
A Fabric's database of Policy Objects consists of a set of
active Objects that are to be enforced by that Fabric, as
well as non-active Objects that are not enforced.
Operations defined (in FC-SP) for Policy Management are:
- Add/Get/Remove operations on individual non-active
Policy Objects,
- Activate/Deactivate operations on a Policy Summary
Object, and
- Get operations on the active Policy Summary Object
and/or on individual active Policy Objects.
This MIB module has five parts:
1) Active Policy Objects - read-only MIB objects
representing the set of active Policy Objects for
each Fabric,
2) Activate/Deactivate Operations
- a read-write MIB object to invoke an Activate
operation of the policies specified via a non-active
Policy Summary Object, and
- a read-write MIB object to invoke a Deactivate
operation.
3) Non-active Policy Objects
- read-create MIB objects to allow the creation of
non-active Policy Summary Objects (which reference
non-active Policy Objects), and
- read-create MIB objects representing non-active
Policy Objects.
4) Statistics
5) Control information and Notifications
Copyright (C) The IETF Trust (2008). This version
of this MIB module is part of RFC 5324; see the RFC
itself for full legal notices."
