The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Fibre-Channel Routing Information MIB ' <draft-ietf-imss-fc-rtm-mib-04.txt> as a Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Internet and Management Support for Storage Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Dan Romascanu and David Kessens. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-imss-fc-rtm-mib-04.txt Technical Summary 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 routing within a Fibre Channel fabric which is independent of the usage of a particular routing protocol. Working Group Summary This document was reviewed in the IMSS WG and in Technical Committee T11 (the official Fibre Channel standards body). T11 voted to recommend a prior version of this document to the IETF. Protocol Quality The protocol has been reviewed for the imss WG by Keith McCloghrie and for the Operations and Management Area by Bert Wijnen. Note to RFC Editor Please make the following changes: 1) Append to Section 1 the following paragraph: NEW: 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 RFC 2119. 2) Add to Normative References the Following [RFC2119] Bradner, S., "Key words for use in RFCs to Indicate Requirement Levels", BCP 14, RFC 2119, March 1997. 3) In Section 12: OLD: 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.

Short Overview of Fibre Channel 3.1 Introduction 5) Section 3, create sub-section 3.2 Replace OLD: The routing of frames within the Fabric is normally based on the standard routing protocol, called the Fabric Shortest Path First ... With NEW: 3.2 Routing Protocols The routing of frames within the Fabric is normally based on the standard routing protocol, called the Fabric Shortest Path First ... 6) Section 3, create sub-section 3.3 Replace OLD: The latest standard for an interconnecting Fabric containing multiple Fabric Switch elements is [FC-SW-4] (which replaces the previous ... With NEW: 3.3 Virtual Fabrics The latest standard for an interconnecting Fabric containing multiple Fabric Switch elements is [FC-SW-4] (which replaces the previous ...
