   IEEE Std 802.1D-1998 for bridging between Local Area Network (LAN)=0A=

=0A=
   For a detailed overview of the documents that describe the current=0A=
   Internet-Standard Management Framework, please refer to section 7 of=0A=
   RFC 3410 [RFC3410].=0A=
=0A=
   Managed objects are accessed via a virtual information store, termed=0A=
   the Management Information Base or MIB.  MIB objects are generally=0A=
   accessed through the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).=0A=
   Objects in the MIB are defined using the mechanisms defined in the=0A=
   Structure of Management Information (SMI).  This memo specifies a MIB=0A=
   module that is compliant to the SMIv2, which is described in STD 58,=0A=
   RFC 2578 [RFC2578], STD 58, RFC 2579 [RFC2579] and STD 58, RFC 2580=0A=

   The objects in the RSTP-MIB supplement those defined in the Bridge=0A=
   MIB [RFC1493bis].=0A=
=0A=
   The Original BRIDGE-MIB [RFC1493] has been updated in an=0A=
   SMIv2-compliant version [RFC1493bis]. Conformance statements have=0A=
   been added and some description and reference clauses have been=0A=
   updated. The interpretations of some objects were changed to=0A=
   accommodate IEEE 802.1t and 802.1w amendments.=0A=
=0A=
   The object dot1dStpPortPathCost32 was added to support IEEE 802.1t,=0A=
   and the permissible values of dot1dStpPriority and=0A=
   dot1dStpPortPriority have been clarified for bridges supporting IEEE=0A=
   802.1t or IEEE 802.1w. The interpretation of=0A=
   dot1dStpTimeSinceTopologyChange has been clarified for bridges=0A=
   supporting the RSTP.=0A=

   This document was produced on behalf of the Bridge MIB Working Group=0A=
   in the Operations and Management area of the Internet Engineering=0A=
   Task Force.=0A=

   Group, especially Alex Ruzin, for their comments and suggestions=0A=

8.  Security Considerations=0A=
=0A=
   There are a number of management objects defined in this MIB that=0A=
   have a MAX-ACCESS clause of read-write and/or read-create.  Such=0A=
   objects may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network=0A=
   environments.  The support for SET operations in a non-secure=0A=
   environment without proper protection can have a negative effect on=0A=
   network operations.=0A=
=0A=
   Writable objects that could be misused to cause network delays and=0A=
   spanning tree instabilities include dot1dStpVersion,=0A=
   dot1dStpTxHoldCount, dot1dStpPortProtocolMigration,=0A=
   dot1dStpPortAdminEdgePort, and dot1dStpPortAdminPathCost.=0A=
=0A=
   dot1dStpVersion could be read by an attacker to identify environments=0A=
   containing applications or protocols which are potentially sensitive=0A=
   to RSTP mode.=0A=
=0A=
   dot1dStpPortAdminPointToPoint could be used to mislead an access=0A=
   control protocol, such as 802.1x, to believe that only one other=0A=
   system is attached to a LAN segment and to enable network access=0A=
   based on that assumption.  This situation could permit potential man-=0A=
