The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Transferring MIB Work from IETF Bridge MIB WG to IEEE 802.1 WG ' <draft-harrington-8021-mib-transition-03.txt> as an Informational RFC This document has been reviewed in the IETF but is not the product of an IETF Working Group. The IESG contact person is Dan Romascanu. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-harrington-8021-mib-transition-03.txt Technical Summary This document describes the plan to transition responsibility for bridging-related MIB modules from the IETF Bridge WG to the IEEE 802.1 WG, which develops the bridging technology the MIB modules are designed to manage. Working Group Summary This is not an IETF Working Group document. However, this MIB transition plan has been discussed extensively. The transition plan was discussed in the Bridge WG at IETF61, and included a presentation "Bridge MIB Transition to IEEE 802.ppt" available in the proceedings. The intent to transition was also posted on the Bridge WG mailing list during notices of the Bridge WG closure, including the WG Action announcement of February 15, 2006. The transition was discussed with the 802.1 WG at the San Antonio, San Francisco, and Garden Grove meetings. Presentations are available in http://www.ieee802.org/1/files/public/docs2004/ new-bridge-mib-transition-1104.ppt, http://www.ieee802.org/1/files/ public/docs2005/liaison-ietf-congdon-0705.pdf, and http:// www.ieee802.org/1/files/public/docs2005/ liaison-ietf-congdon-0905.pdf. Protocol Quality A 2-week IETF Last Call has been performed for IETF-wide review. IEEE 802.1 has also been informed of that IETF Last Call. Bert Wijnen has reviewed this document for the IESG. Jorge Contreras performed the legal counsel expert review. Note to RFC Editor 1. In Section 5.2: OLD 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].
