Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)

The Netopia Firmware Version 8.4 includes a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) agent, allowing monitoring and configuration by a standard SNMP manager. Netopia Routers now support SNMP-V1 and SNMP-V2c.

SNMP Heartbeat Trap

Netopia Firmware Version 8.4 implements a new enterprise-specific SNMP trap, called the heartbeat trap. This has been added to the SNMP MIB file npaV2trap.mib. This trap supports the Netopia NetOctopus network monitoring tool.

When enabled, this trap is periodically sent to a management station to confirm that the connection between the device and the management station is still active.

Note that the serialNumber (defined in the netopia/sysParams table) and sysObjectID (defined in the mib-2/system table) values have been included in this trap. The SNMP agent IP address is present in every trap. This information will allow the NetOctopus tool to uniquely identify the device sending the trap.

A single configuration item is required for heartbeat traps – the time interval between traps. Permitted values are 0 – 65535 minutes. A value of zero, the default, means the trap is disabled. Whenever the interval value is set to a non-zero number, a trap is sent immediately and the new (or same) interval value takes effect.

This MIB is available by anonymous ftp from the Netopia ftp server.

MIBs are available in a variety of formats. Load this MIB into your SNMP management software. Follow the instructions included with your SNMP manager on how to load MIBs.

The Netopia Firmware Version 8.4 supports the following management information base (MIB) documents:

•MIB II (RFC 1213)

•Interface MIB (RFC 1229)

•Ethernet MIB (RFC 1643)

•Netopia MIB

•SNMP-v2 Traps: SNMP v2 MIB (RFC1907) v2 traps only; NPAV2TRAP.MIB (Netopia-specific)

•ATM: ATM TC (RFC2514); ATM MIB (RFC2515)

•ADSL: ADSL MIB (RFC2662)

You can obtain the latest SNMP MIBs from the Netopia anonymous FTP server.
