  1. Cyber Solutions Inc., Japan SysLog-MIB Glenn Mansfield Keeni Syslog-WG, IETF-59 March, 2004

  2. The draft draft-ietf-syslog-device-mib-05.txt

  3. Purpose • Monitoring Syslog operation : • Stats on messages, received, processed, relayed • System wide Parameters, • (Process-wise) run-time parameters • Configuring/Control Syslog processes(?)

  4. Syslog: ISSUE#1 Security Considerations should address Threats due to READONLY access Other threats Action: Already done Status: Waiting on community input

  5. Syslog: ISSUE#2 Subject: Make the MIB generic (now BSD-centric) Action: Handle Configuration section as a black-box (Details are opaque to syslog) Status: Done

  6. Syslog: ISSUE#3 Subject: Do not overlap with HR-MIB Action: Provide mapping to hrSWRunTable Remove syslogParamsProcessStatus (make it readOnly ?) Add syslogProcReference Status: Done

  7. Syslog: ISSUE#3 syslogProcReference OBJECT-TYPE SYNTAX Integer32 MAX-ACCESS read-only STATUS current DESCRIPTION "If the Host resource MIB is serviced on the host then this will entry will have the value of the hrSWRunIndex of the corresponding entry in the hrSWRunTable. Otherwise this object will be inaccessible. " ::= { syslogProcEntry 13 }

  8. Syslog: ISSUE#4 Subject: Add SNMP Notifications Action: Status: Done

  9. SNMP notification • Syslog over SNMP ? • Separate draft ? • Syslog status over SNMP ?

  10. Syslog: ISSUE#5 Subject: Add a "No-DNS lookup" Action: Done Status: Done

  11. Add a "No-DNS lookup" syslogParamsDNSLookup OBJECT-TYPE SYNTAX INTEGER { doNotUseDNSLookUp (1) useLocalCache (2), doNotUseLocalCache (3) } MAX-ACCESS read-write STATUS current DESCRIPTION "" DEFVAL { useLocalCache } ::= { syslogParamsEntry 9 }

  12. Syslog: ISSUE#6 Subject: Configuration stuff- keep or remove ? Action: Do it using ScriptMIB ? Status: Done

  13. Configuration stuff Requirements: generic model Implementation dependence Solution: generic model => blackbox configuration => “syslog.conf” use scriptMIB to set “syslog.conf”

  14. Plan: next draft mid-April •  DESCRIPTION clauses •  REFERENCE clauses •  Editorial nits
