SNMP Agent and MIB-2 (RFC 1213)
The SNMP Agent running on the switch manager CPU is responsible for:
-
Retrieving MIB counters from various layers of software modules according to the SNMP GET/GET NEXT frame messages.
-
Setting MIB variables according to the SNMP SET frame message.
-
Generating an SNMP TRAP frame message to the Network Management Station if the threshold of a certain MIB counter is
reached or if other trap conditions (such as the following) are met:
WARM START
COLD START
LINK UP
LINK DOWN
AUTHENTICATION FAILURE
RISING ALARM
FALLING ALARM
TOPOLOGY ALARM
MIB-II defines a set of manageable objects in various layers of the TCP/IP protocol suites. MIB-II covers all
manageable objects from layer 1 to layer 4, and, as a result, is the major SNMP MIB supported by all vendors in the
networking industry. The switch supports a complete implementation of SNMP Agent and MIB-II.
