Definitions of Managed Objects for Middlebox Communication
RFC 5190, “Definitions of Managed Objects for Middlebox Communication”, is a Proposed Standard document published in March 2008 by J. Quittek, M. Stiemerling, P. Srisuresh. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB) for use with network management protocols in the Internet community. In particular, it describes a set of managed objects that allow configuring middleboxes, such as firewalls and network address translators, in order to enable communication across these devices. The definitions of managed objects in this documents follow closely the MIDCOM semantics defined in RFC 5189. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
What “Proposed Standard” means
An entry-level standards-track specification: stable, peer-reviewed and a solid basis for implementation, though it may still evolve before becoming an Internet Standard.
