The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Expressing SNMP SMI Datatypes in XML Schema Definition Language ' <draft-ietf-opsawg-smi-datatypes-in-xsd-06.txt> as a Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Operations and Management Area Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Dan Romascanu and Ron Bonica. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-opsawg-smi-datatypes-in-xsd-06.txt Technical Summary This memo defines the IETF standard expression of Structure of Management Information (SMI) base datatypes in Extensible Markup Language (XML) Schema Definition (XSD) language. The primary objective of this memo is to enable the production of XML documents that are as faithful to the SMI as possible, using XSD as the validation mechanism. Working Group Summary The WG reviewed and discussed this ID & it was updated a number of times before reaching consensus for submission to the IESG. Document Quality Parts of the schema have been implemented and multiple vendors are expected to fully implement it after it is published as a RFC. Personnel Scott Bradner is the Document Shepherd for this document? Dan Romascanu is the Responsible Area Director. RFC Editor Note RFC Editor, please make the following changes: 1. In Section 1: OLD: Values in varbinds corresponding to MIB objects defined with TC syntax are always encoded as the base SMI datatype underlying the TC syntax. Thus, the XSD mappings defined in this memo provide support for values of MIB objects defined with TC syntax as well as for values of MIB objects defined with base SMI syntax. NEW: Values in varbinds corresponding to MIB objects defined with TC syntax are always encoded as the base SMI datatype underlying the TC syntax. Thus, the XSD mappings defined in this memo provide support for values of MIB objects defined with TC syntax as well as for values of MIB objects defined with base SMI syntax. Using the translation of TC into base SMI datatypes any MIB module that uses TCs can be mapped into XSD using the mappings defined in this memo. For example for IP addresses (both IPv4 and IPv6) the mapping of the InetAddress TC (as per [RFC4001]) shall be used rather than the mapping of the IpAddress base datatype. 2. Add [RFC4001] as and Informative Reference. 3. In Section 6: OLD: Security considerations for any given SMI MIB module are likely to be relevant to any XSD/XML mapping of that MIB module; NEW: Security considerations for any given SMI MIB module will be relevant to any XSD/XML mapping of that MIB module; 4. In Section 4: OLD: <xs:simpleType name="IpAddress"> <xs:restriction base="xs:string"> <xs:pattern value= "((0|(1[0-9]{0,2})| (2(([0-4][0-9]?)|(5[0-5]?)|([6-9]?)))| ([3-9][0-9]?))\.){3} (0|(1[0-9]{0,2})| (2(([0-4][0-9]?)|(5[0-5]?)|([6-9]?)))| ([3-9][0-9]?))"/> </xs:restriction> </xs:simpleType> NEW: <xs:simpleType name="IpAddress"> <xs:restriction base="xs:string"> <xs:pattern value= "(([0-9]|[1-9][0-9]|1[0-9][0-9]|2[0-4][0-9]|25[0-5])\.){3} ([0-9]|[1-9][0-9]|1[0-9][0-9]|2[0-4][0-9]|25[0-5])"/> </xs:restriction> </xs:simpleType> _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
