This Recommendation specifies the physical layer management for fast access to subscriber terminals (G.fast) transmission systems.

It specifies managed objects for configuration, fault, status, inventory and performance management. The list of managed objects applies at the distribution point unit-Northbound (DPU-NB) interface, relating to the "DPU-MIB" nomenclature used in [ITU-T G.9701]. The managed objects are defined to provide, at least, all the information necessary for translation into a YANG data model [b-IETF RFC 6020], although this does not exclude translation to other formats such as an abstract syntax notation one (ASN.1) (ITU-T X.680 series) management information base (MIB) description used in connection with the simple network management protocol (SNMP) [b-IETF RFC 1157]. The definition of the YANG data model for G.fast-managed objects is outside the scope of this Recommendation.
