SNMP

There are two SNMP agents for manageability:

ˆBASP Sub-agent

ˆBASP Extensible-agent

See the following sections.

BASP Sub-agentThe BASP sub-agent, baspmgnt.dll, is designed for the Windows 2000 and Windows Server 2003 SNMP service. It is required to install the SNMP service before installing BASP subagent.

The BASP subagent allows the SNMP manager software to actively monitor the configurations and performance of the BASP features. The subagent also provides an alarm trap to an SNMP manager to inform the manager of any changes to the conditions of the BASP component.

The BASP subagent allows monitoring of the configurations and statistics for the BASP teams, the physical NIC adapters participating in a team, and the virtual NIC adapters created as the result of teaming. The BASP configuration data includes information such as team IDs, physical/virtual/ VLAN/team adapter IDs, physical/virtual/VLAN/team/ adapter descriptions, and MAC addresses of the adapters.

Note

Non-teamed NIC adapters are not monitored at this time

The statistics include detailed information such as data packets transmitted and received for the physical/virtual/VLAN/team adapters.

The alarm trap forwards information about configuration changes to the physical adapters participating in a team, such as physical adapter link up/ down and adapter installed/removed events.

To monitor this information, an SNMP manager needs to load the

BASP MIB database files to allow monitoring of the information described above. These files are shown below:

baspconfig.mib

baspstat.mib

basptrap.mib
