OpenROUTE MIB Support

This appendix describes the Management Information Bases (MIBs) contained in the OpenROUTE-Router-SNMP-Agent. A MIB is a virtual information store that provides access to managed devices. It consists of defined (declared) variables. You can access the values of these variables using network management tools.

Note: All OpenROUTE MIBs are READ-ONLY.

Accessing OpenROUTE MIBs

 The OpenROUTE MIBs are available on the OpenROUTE FTP server. You can access this server using a Web browser or using anonymous FTP.

To access the OpenROUTE FTP server using your Web browser, enter the following location:

 ftp://ftp.openroute.com/pub/bbs/net_mgrs/
To access the OpenROUTE FTP server using FTP software, enter this command:

 ftp ftp.openroute.com
At the "name" prompt, enter anonymous. You will be prompted for a password. Enter your internet mail address.

Next, change to the MIBs directory by entering:

%cd /pub/bbs/net_mgrs

PPP Link Config Table (Run-time SNMP Attributes) X

1Each Serial Line that supports PPP has two entries in the Interface table. One entry is associated with the physical hardware link over which PPP is running. The other entry represents the PPP layer running over that link.

For example, if a router has four interfaces, two of which run PPP over RS-232 ports, the number of interfaces reported in the Interface Table is six. Six interface numbers are defined, four for the network interfaces and an additional two designating the PPP-layer links.

OpenROUTE System MIB

The OpenROUTE system MIB, listed on the OpenROUTE FTP server as openroute.mib, defines the systemwide network management functionality available on OpenROUTE platforms. Table 15 lists the OpenROUTE proprietary System MIB groups.

Table 15 OpenROUTE System MIB Groups

Group Name Definition
proStatus Group of MIB objects that provide general device information (i.e. reload time, number of restarts, etc.)
proResource Group of MIB objects that provide buffer/memory utilization information on a device. The following groups are defined:
- proResMemHeap - Heap memory statistics
- proResMemBuf - Buffer memory statistics
- proResBufGlobal - Global buffer statistics
- proResBufTable - Per-port buffer statistics
proELS Group of MIB objects that provide information on ELS. The following groups are defined:
- proElsGeneric - Generic ELS attributes
- proElsSubSysTable - Information on each subsystem
- proElsSubSysEventTable -Information on each event in each subsystem
- proElsTrap - Event trap definition
proPriv The proActionReset object allows OpenROUTE routers to be reset using an SNMP set command. The object's value represents the time that elapses (in seconds) before a reset takes effect.
