- SNMP & RMON Management
- Overview
- - The RMON probe is an intelligent device or software agent that continually collects statistics about a LAN segment or VLAN. The RMON probe transfers the collected data to a management workstation on request or when a pre-defined threshold is reached.
- - The management workstation collects the statistics that the RMON probe gathers. The workstation can reside on the same network as the probe, or it can have an in-band or out-of-band connection to the probe.
- SNMP Agent and MIB-2 (RFC 1213)
- - 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
- RMON MIB (RFC 2819) and Bridge MIB (RFC 1493)
- RMON Groups Supported
- - RMON Statistics Group – maintains utilization and error statistics for the switch port being monitored.
- - RMON History Group – gathers and stores periodic statistical samples from the previous Statistics Group.
- - RMON Alarm Group – allows a network administrator to define alarm thresholds for any MIB variable. An alarm can be associated with Low Threshold, High Threshold, or both. A trigger can trigger an alarm when the value of a specific MIB variable exceeds a !
- - RMON Event Group – allows a network administrator to define actions based on alarms. SNMP Traps are generated when RMON Alarms are triggered. The action taken in the Network Management Station depends on the specific network management application.
- Bridge Groups Supported
- - The dot1dBase Group – a mandatory group that contains the objects applicable to all types of bridges.
- - The dot1dStp Group – contains objects that denote the bridge’s state with respect to the Spanning Tree Protocol. If a node does not implement the Spanning Tree Protocol, this group will not be implemented. This group is applicable to any transparent only!
- - The dot1dTp Group – contains objects that describe the entity’s transparent bridging status. This group is applicable to transparent operation only and SRT bridges.
- - The dot1dStatic Group – contains objects that describe the entity’s destination-address filtering status. This group is applicable to any type of bridge which performs destination-address filtering.
