Monitoring Network Interfaces

Network Monitor Reference

		Network Monitor Reference
		The network monitor provides status on the LAN interfaces in a given node. It
		monitors all interfaces visible when you run the lanscan command on a system.

				/lan


				/status


				/LANname

		The MIB variable ifOperStatus, which is part of MIB-2, provides the LAN
		interface status to the monitor. The MIB value of TESTING is reported by the
		monitor as DOWN.
		To verify the operational status of the LAN interface, use the lanscan (1M) or
		lanadmin(1M) commands.

	Resource Name			/net/interfaces/lan/status/LANname

	Condition	Value				Interpretation

	UP	1	The LAN interface is sending and receiving packets.

	DOWN	2	The LAN interface is not passing operational packets.

EMS HA Monitors depend on TCP/IP (or UDP) to send events to targets such as HP OpenView IT/Operations or MC/ServiceGuard; see “Which Protocols Can I Use to Send Events” in Chapter 1. If all LAN interfaces on a subnet fail, notiﬁcations may not be received by a remote target.
