The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is used in network management systems to monitor attached hardware for changes in operation activity. SNMP provides a standardized approach to monitoring and managing network systems.

For information on configuring your TMedia product to use the SNMP protocol, see the section labeled "Related Tasks".

TelcoBridges and SNMP

TelcoBridges offers basic support for SNMP versions 1, 2, and 3. Toolpack supports SNMP V2 and V3 since release 2.5.80 (see Tctrl version history). This grants users the ability to remotely poll (or GET) system variables, known as Managed Objects, which are represented in files known as MIB modules. TelcoBridges currently offers polling on standard MIB modules (RTP, SONET, DS1, DS3, ISDN, etc...) and on the TelcoBridges privately defined module (TB-MIB).

SNMP traps

The SNMP traps module of TelcoBridges products monitor the operation status of some MIBS OIDs and generates notifications when the states change. The default monitoring polling period is set to 1 minute. This value can be modified in the SNMP configuration.

IF-MIB SNMP Trap/Notification (see RFC1573.txt)

Trap Name OID OBJECTS RELEASE
linkDown 1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5.3 { ifIndex, ifAdminStatus, ifOperStatus, ifDescr } 2.8+
linkUp 1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5.4 { ifIndex, ifAdminStatus, ifOperStatus, ifDescr } 2.8+
linkDown 1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5.3 { ifIndex, ifAdminStatus, ifOperStatus } 2.6 and 2.7

Note

The ifIndex is a random value that can change after configuring the system, or adding new elements. This should not be relied on as a reference value. Please use the ifDescr instead.

SNMP SET

The SNMP SET command is not supported by TelcoBridges products. However, a RESTful API can be used to change the configuration remotely.


Configuration

The below procedures should be used to support SNMP v1 ONLY for Toolpack systems previous to 2.5.80:
