1. Abstract
This memo defines a Management Information Base (MIB) for use with
network management protocols in the Internet community. In
particular, it describes managed objects used for managing tunnels of
any type over IPv4 networks. Extension MIBs may be designed for
managing protocol-specific objects. Likewise, extension MIBs may be
designed for managing security-specific objects. This MIB does not
support tunnels over non-IPv4 networks (including IPv6 networks).
Management of such tunnels may be supported by other MIBs.
