1. Introduction
A networked application is a realization of some well defined service
on one or more host computers that is accessible via some network,
uses some network for its internal operations, or both.
There are a wide range of networked applications for which it is
appropriate to provide SNMP monitoring of their network usage. This
includes applications using both TCP/IP and OSI networking. This
document defines a MIB which contains the elements common to the
monitoring of any network service application. This information
includes a table of all monitorable network service applications, a
count of the associations (connections) to each application, and
basic information about the parameters and status of each
application-related association.
This MIB may be used on its own for any application, and for most
simple applications this will suffice. This MIB is also designed to
serve as a building block which can be used in conjunction with
application-specific monitoring and management. Two examples of this
are MIBs defining additional variables for monitoring a Message
Transfer Agent (MTA) service or a Directory Service Agent (DSA)
service. It is expected that further MIBs of this nature will be
specified.
Freed & Kille Standards Track [Page 1]
RFC 2248 Network Services MIB January 1998
This MIB does not attempt to provide facilities for management of the
host or hosts the network service application runs on, nor does it
provide facilities for monitoring applications that provide something
other than a network service. Host resource and general application
monitoring is handled by the Host Resources MIB at present;
development of an additional application MIB is currently underway in
the IETF.

3. The SNMPv2 Network Management Framework
The SNMPv2 Network Management Framework consists of seven major
components. They are:
o RFC 1902 [1] which defines the SMI, the mechanisms used for
describing and naming objects for the purpose of management.
o RFC 1903 [2] defines textual conventions for SNMPv2.
o RFC 1904 [3] defines conformance statements for SNMPv2.
o RFC 1905 [4] defines transport mappings for SNMPv2.
o RFC 1906 [5] defines the protocol operations used for network
access to managed objects.
o RFC 1907 [6] defines the Management Information Base for SNMPv2.
o RFC 1908 [7] specifies coexistance between SNMP and SNMPv2.
Freed & Kille Standards Track [Page 2]
RFC 2248 Network Services MIB January 1998
The Framework permits new objects to be defined for the purpose of
experimentation and evaluation.
3.1. Object Definitions
Managed objects are accessed via a virtual information store, termed
the Management Information Base or MIB. Objects in the MIB are
defined using the subset of Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1)
defined in the SMI. In particular, each object type is named by an
OBJECT IDENTIFIER, an administratively assigned name. The object type
together with an object instance serves to uniquely identify a
specific instantiation of the object. For human convenience, we
often use a textual string, termed the descriptor, to refer to the
object type.
4. Rationale for having a Network Services Monitoring MIB
Much effort has been expended in developing tools to manage lower
layer network facilities. However, relatively little work has been
done on managing application layer entities. It is neither efficient
nor reasonable to manage all aspects of application layer entities
using only lower layer information. Moreover, the difficulty of
managing application entities in this way increases dramatically as
application entities become more complex.
This leads to a substantial need to monitor applications which
provide network services, particularly distributed components such as
MTAs and DSAs, by monitoring specific aspects of the application
itself. Reasons to monitor such components include but are not
limited to measuring load, detecting broken connectivity, isolating
system failures, and locating congestion.
In order to manage network service applications effectively two
requirements must be met:
(1) It must be possible to monitor a large number of components
(typical for a large organization).
(2) Application monitoring must be integrated into general network
management.
This specification defines simple read-only access; this is
sufficient to determine up/down status and provide an indication of a
broad class of operational problems.
Freed & Kille Standards Track [Page 3]
RFC 2248 Network Services MIB January 1998
4.1. General Relationship to Other MIBs
This MIB is intended to only provide facilities common to the
monitoring of any network service application. It does not provide
all the facilities necessary to monitor any specific application.
Each specific type of network service application is expected to have
a MIB of its own that makes use of these common facilities.
4.2. Restriction of Scope
The framework provided here is very minimal; there is a lot more that
could be done. For example:
(1) General network service application configuration monitoring
and control.
(2) Detailed examination and modification of individual entries in
service-specific request queues.
(3) Probing to determine the status of a specific request (e.g.
the location of a mail message with a specific message-id).
(4) Requesting that certain actions be performed (e.g. forcing an
immediate connection and transfer of pending messages to some
specific system).
All these capabilities are both impressive and useful. However,
these capabilities would require provisions for strict security
checking. These capabilities would also mandate a much more complex
design, with many characteristics likely to be fairly
implementation-specific. As a result such facilities are likely to
be both contentious and difficult to implement.
This document religiously keeps things simple and focuses on the
basic monitoring aspect of managing applications providing network
services. The goal here is to provide a framework which is simple,
useful, and widely implementable.
4.3. Configuration Information
This MIB attempts to provide information about the operational
aspects of an application. Further information about the actual
configuration of a given application may be kept in other places; the
applDirectoryName or applURL may be used to point to places where
such information is kept.
Freed & Kille Standards Track [Page 4]
RFC 2248 Network Services MIB January 1998
5. Application Objects
This MIB defines a set of general purpose attributes which would be
appropriate for a range of applications that provide network
services. Both OSI and non-OSI services can be accomodated.
Additional tables defined in extensions to this MIB provide
attributes specific to specific network services.
A table is defined which will have one row for each operational
network service application on the system. The only static
information held on the application is its name. All other static
information should be obtained from various directory services. The
applDirectoryName is an external key, which allows an SNMP MIB entry
to be cleanly related to the X.500 Directory. In SNMP terms, the
applications are grouped in a table called applTable, which is
indexed by an integer key applIndex.
The type of the application will be determined by one or both of:
(1) Additional MIB variables specific to the applications.
(2) An association to the application of a specific protocol.

7. Changes made since RFC 1565
The only changes made to this document since it was issued as RFC
1565 [11] are the following:
(1) applDescription and applURL fields have been added. These
fields are intended to identify and describe the application.
(2) A number of DESCRIPTION fields have been reworded, hopefully
making them clearer.
(3) The new "quiescing" state has been added to applOperStatus.
(4) The prose about "dynamic single threaded processes" has been
removed -- it was simply too confusing.
(5) Various RFC references have been updated to refer to more
recent versions.
(6) The MIB has been renamed from APPLICATION-MIB to NETWORK-
SERVICES-MIB. This was done because an application MIB is now
under development within the IETF that provides very different
functionality from this MIB.
8. Acknowledgements
This document is a product of the Mail and Directory Management
(MADMAN) Working Group. It is based on an earlier MIB designed by S.
Kille, T. Lenggenhager, D. Partain, and W. Yeong. The Electronic

10. Security Considerations
This MIB does not offer write access, and as such cannot be used to
actively attack a system. However, this MIB does provide passive
information about the existance, type, and configuration of
applications on a given host that could potentially indicate some
sort of vulnerability. Finally, the information MIB provides about
network usage could be used to analyze network traffic patterns.
