Supported MIBs

RMON (RFC 1757)

The IntraSwitch 5212 supports the following MIBs (Manage- ment Information Bases):

RMON (RFC 1757)

MIB II (RFC 1213)

Bridge MIB (RFC 1493)

This section describes each supported MIB and its groups.

The IntraSwitch 5212 supports four groups of Remote Network Monitoring (RMON) MIB objects.

Statistics

History Group

Alarm Group

Event Group

ΔNote: RMON is a standard for monitoring and reporting network activity using remote network monitoring devices (referred to as “monitors” or “probes.”) RMON is designed to supplement the management information obtained and used by SNMP. For more information, refer to RFC 1757.

Statistics

The Statistics group contains statistics measured by the probe for each monitored interface on the device. These statistics take the form of free-running counters that start from zero when a valid entry is created.

The statistics group lists Ethernet statistic types (e.g., multicasts, fragments, collisions) and supplies a numerical counter of occurrences.
