1 Scope
The present document describes the framework in which IPCablecom1.5 MIB (Management Information Base)
modules are described. It provides information on the management requirements of IPCablecom compliant devices and
functions and how these requirements are supported in the MIB modules. It is intended to support and complement the
actual MIB module documents, which are issued separately. There are currently two sets of the MIB modules that
describe the Management Information Base for the IPCablecom Multimedia Terminal Adapters (MTAs) as per table 1:
• IPCablecom MIBs ([8], [9], [10], [11], [12])
• IETF MIBs ([16], [17], [18]).
The IPCablecom 1.5 compliant MTAs are to implement the IPCablecom MIBs. The IPCablecom 1.5 compliant MTAs
may implement the IETF MIBs.

5 Overview
IPCablecom MIB modules are designed to provide necessary functionality defined in IPCablecom 1.5 specifications.
The MIB design follows the same multi-phase schedule as the rest of IPCablecom specifications. Table 1 lists
IPCablecom functional areas that are in scope of IPCablecom 1.5. Additionally, in the present document, the term
® ®
"DOCSIS " is used to refer to DOCSIS version 1.1 or later, unless explicitly specified otherwise.
