DESCRIPTION
"An enumerated value that provides an indication of the
general hardware type of a particular physical entity.
There are no restrictions as to the number of
entPhysicalEntries of each entPhysicalClass, which must
be instantiated by an agent.
The enumeration 'other' is applicable if the physical
entity class is known but does not match any of the
supported values.
The enumeration 'unknown' is applicable if the physical
entity class is unknown to the agent.
The enumeration 'chassis' is applicable if the physical
entity class is an overall container for networking
equipment. Any class of physical entity, except a stack,
may be contained within a chassis; a chassis may only
be contained within a stack.
The enumeration 'backplane' is applicable if the physical
entity class is some sort of device for aggregating and
forwarding networking traffic, such as a shared
backplane in a modular ethernet switch. Note that an
agent may model a backplane as a single physical entity,
which is actually implemented as multiple discrete
physical components (within a chassis or stack).
The enumeration 'container' is applicable if the
physical entity class is capable of containing one or
more removable physical entities, possibly of different
types. For example, each (empty or full) slot in a
chassis will be modeled as a container. Note that all
removable physical entities should be modeled within
a container entity, such as field-replaceable modules,
fans, or power supplies. Note that all known containers
should be modeled by the agent, including empty
containers.
The enumeration 'powerSupply' is applicable if the
physical entity class is a power-supplying component.
The enumeration 'fan' is applicable if the physical
entity class is a fan or other heat-reduction component.
The enumeration 'sensor' is applicable if the physical
entity class is some sort of sensor, such as a
temperature sensor within a router chassis.
The enumeration 'module' is applicable if the physical
entity class is some sort of self-contained sub-system.
If the enumeration 'module' is removable, then it should
be modeled within a container entity; otherwise, it
should be modeled directly within another physical
entity (e.g., a chassis or another module).
The enumeration 'port' is applicable if the physical
entity class is some sort of networking port, capable
of receiving and/or transmitting networking traffic.
The enumeration 'stack' is applicable if the physical
entity class is some sort of super-container (possibly
virtual) intended to group together multiple chassis
entities. A stack may be realized by a 'virtual' cable,
a real interconnect cable attached to multiple chassis,
or multiple interconnect cables. A stack should not be
modeled within any other physical entities, but a stack
may be contained within another stack. Only chassis
entities should be contained within a stack.
The enumeration 'cpu' is applicable if the physical
entity class is some sort of central processing unit.
The enumeration 'energyObject' is applicable if the
physical entity is some sort of energy object, i.e.,
a piece of equipment that is part of or attached to
a communications network that is monitored, controlled,
or aids in the management of another device for Energy
Management.
The enumeration 'battery' is applicable if the physical
entity class is some sort of battery."

4. Usage Examples
The following sections iterate the instance values for two example
networking devices. These examples are kept simple to make them
more understandable. Auxiliary components such as fans, sensors,
empty slots, and sub-modules are not shown but might be modeled in
real implementations.
4.1. Router/Bridge
The first example is a router containing two slots. Each slot
contains a 3-port router/bridge module. Each port is represented
in the ifTable. There are two logical instances of OSPF running and
two logical bridges:

1st bridge group: uses module 1, all ports
Note that these mappings are included in the table because
another logical entity (1st OSPF) utilizes one of the
ports. If this were not the case, then a single mapping
to the module (e.g., entLPPhysicalIndex.3.4) would be
present instead.

entAliasMappingIdentifier.9.0 == ifIndex.4
entAliasMappingIdentifier.10.0 == ifIndex.5
entAliasMappingIdentifier.11.0 == ifIndex.6
Example 2: ifIndex values are not shared by all logical entities;

4.2. Repeaters
The second example is a 3-slot hub with 2 backplane ethernet
segments. Slot three is empty, and the remaining slots contain
ethernet repeater modules.
Note that this example assumes an older Repeater MIB implementation
[RFC1516] rather than the new Repeater MIB [RFC2108]. The new
version contains an object called 'rptrPortRptrId', which should be
used to identify repeater port groupings, rather than using community
strings or contexts.

Logical to Physical Mappings -- entLPMappingTable:
repeater1 uses backplane 1, slot 1-ports 1 & 2, slot 2-port 1
Note that a mapping to the module is not included,
because this example represents a port-switchable hub.
Even though all ports on the module could belong to the
same repeater as a matter of configuration, the LP port
mappings should not be replaced dynamically with a single
mapping for the module (e.g., entLPPhysicalIndex.1.7).
If all ports on the module shared a single backplane connection,
then a single mapping for the module would be more appropriate.
entLPPhysicalIndex.1.2 == 2
entLPPhysicalIndex.1.8 == 8
entLPPhysicalIndex.1.9 == 9
entLPPhysicalIndex.1.13 == 13

As an example, to illustrate the use of the MIB objects introduced
with Energy Management (EMAN) applications, consider a router that
has 16 slots with line cards. An example of the entPhysicalTable is

card in that slot. The chassis contains the slot, and the slot
contains the line card.

5. Security Considerations
There are a number of management objects defined in these MIB modules
with a MAX-ACCESS clause of read-write and/or read-create. Such
objects may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network
environments. The support for SET operations in a non-secure
environment without proper protection can have a negative effect on
network operations. These are the tables and objects and their
sensitivity/vulnerability:
entPhysicalSerialNum
entPhysicalAlias
entPhysicalAssetID
entPhysicalUris
These objects contain information about the physical entities within
a managed system, which may be used to identify the serial number,
identification of assets and managed components, and handling of the
managed objects. Their mis-configuration or disclosure may reveal
sensitive information on assets, perturb the management of entities,
or cause privacy issues if they allow tracking of values that are
personally identifying.
Some of the readable objects in these MIB modules (i.e., objects with
a MAX-ACCESS other than not-accessible) may be considered sensitive
or vulnerable in some network environments. It is thus important to
control even GET and/or NOTIFY access to these objects and possibly
to even encrypt the values of these objects when sending them over
the network via SNMP. These are the tables and objects and their
sensitivity/vulnerability:
entPhysicalDescr
entPhysicalVendorType
entPhysicalHardwareRev
entPhysicalFirmwareRev
entPhysicalSoftwareRev
entPhysicalMfgName
entPhysicalModelName
entPhysicalUUID
These objects expose information about the physical entities within a
managed system, which may be used to identify the vendor, model,
version, and specific device-identification information of each
system component.
entLogicalDescr
entLogicalType
These objects expose the type of logical entities present in the
managed system.
entLogicalCommunity
This object exposes community names associated with particular
logical entities within the system.
entLogicalTAddress
entLogicalTDomain
These objects expose network addresses that can be used to
communicate with an SNMP agent on behalf of particular logical
entities within the system.
entLogicalContextEngineID
entLogicalContextName
These objects identify the authoritative SNMP engine that contains
information on behalf of particular logical entities within the
system.
SNMP versions prior to SNMPv3 did not include adequate security. Even if the network itself is secure (for example by using IPsec), there is no control as to who on the secure network is allowed to access and GET/SET (read/change/create/delete) the objects in these MIB modules. Implementations SHOULD provide the security features described by the SNMPv3 framework (see [RFC3410]), and implementations claiming compliance to the SNMPv3 standard MUST include full support for authentication and privacy via the User-based Security Model (USM) [RFC3414] with the AES cipher algorithm [RFC3826]. Implementations MAY also provide support for the Transport Security Model (TSM) [RFC5591] in combination with a secure transport such as SSH [RFC5592] or TLS/DTLS [RFC6353]. Further, deployment of SNMP versions prior to SNMPv3 is NOT RECOMMENDED. Instead, it is RECOMMENDED to deploy SNMPv3 and to enable cryptographic security. It is then a customer/operator responsibility to ensure that the SNMP entity giving access to an instance of these MIB modules is properly configured to give access to the objects only to those principals (users) that have legitimate rights to indeed GET or SET (change/create/delete) them.6. IANA Considerations
This document defines the first version of the IANA-maintained IANA-ENTITY-MIB module, which allows new physical classes to be added to the enumeration in IANAPhysicalClass. An Expert Review, as defined in RFC 5226 [RFC5226], is REQUIRED for each modification. The MIB module in this document uses the following IANA-assigned OBJECT IDENTIFIER values recorded in the SMI Numbers registry: Descriptor OBJECT IDENTIFIER value ---------- ----------------------- entityMIB { mib-2 47 } IANA has allocated two OBJECT IDENTIFIERS under mib-2 for: Descriptor OBJECT IDENTIFIER value ---------- ----------------------- ianaEntityMIB { mib-2 216 } uuidTCMIB { mib-2 217 }
