7C0x SmartSwitch MIB Structure
A-2 7C0x SmartSwitch MIB Structure
depending on which functionality the device has been configured to use. To see
which MIB components are currently being used in your 7C0x SmartSwitch, bring
up the Community Names application, or use any SNMP Get operation that will
allow you to view the contents of the contLogicalEntryTable.
The 7C0x SmartSwitch MIB consists of the following components:
Chassis MGR
The Chassis MGR MIB component contains most of the basic information about
the 7X00 SmartSwitch Controller module, the chassis it is controlling, and the
other modules installed in that chassis, including: chassis type, backplane type,
number of slots, which module types and names are installed in which slots, the
7C0x’s MIB component information (in the contLogicalEntryTable), device and
module names, hardware revision numbers, MAC and IP addresses, the current
time and date, and information related to connected uninterruptable power
supplies and TFTP download. The system, interfaces, at, ip, icmp, udp, and snmp
groups from MIB-II and the objects that provide Local Management functionality
are also included. The community names assigned to this MIB component
provide the gateway that all SPMA applications use to access all information in
the other components, even if those components have different community
names; the Chassis MGR community names are the same as those assigned via
Local Management.
CTATM_MIB
The ATM_MIB component contains the objects that provide the ATM NIM’s
uplink port with its network functionality.
Transparent Bridge
The Transparent Bridge MIB component — instantiated only when the 7C0x has
been configured (currently via Local Management) to operate in traditional
bridging mode — controls all of the 7C0x’s transparent bridging functions,
including bridge port description and status, bridging statistics (frames
forwarded, frames blocked, etc.), and bridge configuration information.
IP Services
Like the Host Services MIB component, the IP Services MIB component contains
some objects related to basic IP functionality.
NOTE
Since there are currently no Token Ring NIMs available for the 7C0x SmartSwitch
chassis, no source route bridging functions are supported at this time.
