Management Information Base for IP Version 6:
ICMPv6

Status of this

This document specifies an Internet standards track protocol for
Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions
improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the "
Official Protocol Standards" (STD 1) for the standardization
and status of this protocol. Distribution of this memo is unlimited

This document is one in the series of documents that define
MIB object groups for IPv6. Specifically, the ICMPv6 group
defined in this document

This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB
for use with network management protocols in the IPv6-
internets

This document specifies a MIB module in a manner that is
compliant to the SNMPv2 SMI, and semantically identical to the
SNMPv1 definitions

RFC 2466 IPv6 MIB: ICMPv6 Group December 1998


1. The SNMPv2 Network Management

The SNMPv2 Network Management Framework presently consists of
major components. They are

o the SMI, described in RFC 1902 [1] - the mechanisms used
describing and naming objects for the purpose of management

o the MIB-II, described in RFC 1213/STD 17 [3] - the core set
managed objects for the Internet suite of protocols

o RFC 1157/STD 15 [4] and RFC 1905 [5] which define two versions of
protocol used for network access to managed objects

The Framework permits new objects to be defined for the purpose
experimentation and evaluation

1.1. Object

Managed objects are accessed via a virtual information store,
the Management Information Base or MIB. Objects in the MIB
defined using the subset of Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1)
defined in the SMI. In particular, each object type is named by
OBJECT IDENTIFIER, an administratively assigned name. The object
together with an object instance serves to uniquely identify
specific instantiation of the object. For human convenience, we
use a textual string, termed the descriptor, to refer to the
type

2.

This document is the one in the series of documents that
various MIB object groups for IPv6. These groups are the basic unit
conformance: if the semantics of a group is applicable to
implementation, then it must implement all objects in that group.
example, an implementation must implement the TCP group if and only
it implements the TCP over IPv6 protocol. At minimum,
must implement the IPv6 General group [9] as well as the ICMPv6
defined in this document

This document defines the ICMPv6 group of the IPv6 MIB

Certain management information defined in this MIB may be

Therefore, authentication of received SNMP requests and
access to management information should be employed in

if you see any problems within the linking, don't worry be happy,
this is version 0.1 of the Relevance System and you gotta expect some crappy subroutines sometimes,
just be content we did not write this in Java, which would have made this "bigger and better" HAHAHHA.
