1Introduction to the Simple
Network ManagementProtocol
OverviewThe Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is described in the following sections:

BSR 2000 SNMP MIB Reference Guide Release 1.1
1-2 526362-001-00 Rev B
About SNMP MIBsRequest for Comments (RFC) 1155 defines the Structure of Management Information (SMI) framework for using SNMP to control different types of information. SMI places objects as nodes in an object tree. The object tree groups logically related objects into subtrees. Each of these subtrees is called a Management Information Base (MIB).
A MIB is a database maintained by the device that stores all of its known management information. Each individual element of information in the MIB is called an Object. A MIB is much like an information warehouse with specific floors, aisles and racks stocked with inventory.
Request for Comments (RFC) MIBs and Internet Drafts are written by Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) working groups and are available for public use and are often referred to as "Standard MIBs". Other MIBs have been developed by private organizations specifically for their products and are often referred to as "Private" or "Proprietary" MIBs.
The BSR supports the following Standard and Private MIBs:
n Refer to Standard MIB Support on page 2-1 for a list of Standard MIBs supported by the BSR.
n Refer to Motorola Private MIBS on page 3-1 for a list of Private MIBs supported by the BSR.
An SNMP agent is used to communicate information between a remote management system and the information database on a device. An SNMP agent accomplishes this by retrieving information from a MIB and storing information to a MIB. SNMP management follows this model:n MIBs located on the SNMP network management station describe the
information that is relayed from the SNMP agents.n The SNMP network management station or application can send queries to each
SNMP agent.n Each SNMP agent collects information about its device and provides that
information to the SNMP network management station. The agent process acts as a server in a typical client-server model.
Release 1.1 Introduction to the Simple Network Management Protocol
526362-001-00 Rev B 1-3
SNMP CommandsTable describes the SNMP Get, GetNext, and Set commands, as defined in RFC 1157, that are supported by the SNMP agent software on the BSR:
How a MIB is OrganizedBecause networking devices are made by a variety of manufacturers they must all be able to communicate with one another. The Internet standards organization requires that each network device organize its management information according to a pre-defined tree format. This tree structure branches out from the Internet layer into several subtrees, with each subtree organized into branches (groups of related information) and leaves (the individual pieces of information, or objects). Among these subtrees is an Enterprises subtree, in which private vendors can apply to the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority for a branch in which to store management information (or objects) specific to their products.
Each layer of this tree is numerically encoded, so that each group and object is identified by a unique number known as an Object Identifier (OID). This identifier is a path to the information stored as the object’s value, and provides the means by which the SNMP agent is able to locate the object in a device’s MIB. An ASCII name is also assigned to each branch or OID, for convenience in identifying a management object. For example, the MIB II object ipForwarding is identified as follows:
Numeric OID: 1.3.6.1.2.1.4.1
ASCII string: iso/org/dod/internet/mgmt/mib-2/ip/ipForwarding
Table 1-1 SNMP Commands
Command Description
Get Retrieves the value of a specific object from one of the supported MIBs.
GetNext Traverses the MIB tree to retrieve the next object’s management information.
Set Modifies the values of MIB objects. The BSR 2000 private MIBs and several objects in the standard MIBs allow you to configure the BSR 2000 from an SNMP management station on the network.
BSR 2000 SNMP MIB Reference Guide Release 1.1
1-4 526362-001-00 Rev B
Some objects may occur multiple times for a single device. Objects of this type are called tabular objects and are organized in tables. Each occurrence of a tabular object is called an instance, and each instance also numerically encoded. For example, if you were querying a two-port bridge’s interface table, there would be two instances (values) returned for each object in the table (one for each port), and each instance would have a unique instance value appended to the object’s OID.
Defining MIB ObjectsMIB objects represent data that the device can retrieve or configuration information that can be modified. n RFC 1155 (Structure and Identification of Management Information for TCP/
IP-based Internets) describes the layout and encoding of exchanged data objects. The SMI uses the ISO standard ASN.1 (Abstract Syntax Notation One) to define a method for describing a hierarchical name space for managed information.
n RFC 1212 (Concise MIB Definitions) is an easier-to-read form used in most standard MIBs today. It defines the private enterprise MIB.
A MIB object is defined and identified by the following:
OBJECT_TYPE The object’s ASN.1 (Abstract Syntax Notation.1) defined name and type.
SYNTAX How the data represented by this object is structured: Integer, Octet String, Object Identifier, Null, Sequence, Sequence of, IpAddress, NetworkAddress, Counter, Gauge, TimeTicks, Opaque, or some other user-defined data type.
ACCESS The level of management access available for this specific object: read-only (instances of the object may be read, but not set), read-write (instances of the object may be read or set), write-only (instances of the object may be set but not read), or not-accessible (instances of the object may not be read or set). Note that this does not designate the level of access provided by the community name you used to contact the device, but the maximum level of access available for the object by definition.

: Indicates whether a managed device is required to implement this object in its MIB. A status of mandatory indicates that the device must use this object (by convention, all MIBs adhering to the Internet-standard contain only mandatory objects); a status of optional indicates that the device may implement this object (by Internet-standard MIB convention, this is used to denote objects within an experimental MIB); and a status of obsoleted indicates that the device need no longer implement this object, as it is no longer meaningful in an Internet-standard MIB.
DESCRIPTION A brief description of the management information provided by this object.
::= The variable name of the object, in the form OBJECT TYPE OBJECT IDENTIFIER fragment.

5Using a MIB Browser to
Access MIB Variables
OverviewThis chapter provides a brief overview of using a graphical interface MIB browser including:
n Basic procedures for using the browser n The SNMP Get, GetNext, and Set commandsn The rationale behind updating a MIB database.
Note: The information and procedures provided use a “generic” graphical interface MIB browser application as an example. There are many interface-based MIB browsers available and, while they support similar functionality and presentation, there are vendor-specific differences in procedure.
There are also several command line MIB browsers available which are beyond the scope of this document.
BSR 2000 SNMP MIB Reference Guide Release 1.1
5-2 526362-001-00 Rev B
About MIB BrowsersWith a MIB browser, you can examine the MIBs supported by an active device on your network and perform SNMP Get, GetNext, and Set commands on the MIB objects.
To successfully communicate with intelligent devices with SNMP, some MIB browsers rely on their own database of MIB information. The OIDs, ASCII names, and other technical information stored in this database allow you to easily search for and select the objects whose information you want to view or change. You use the MIB browser application to both query and set objects in your intelligent devices.
The following sections describe using a MIB browser to:
n Contact a device n Navigate through its supported MIBsn Query the device for MIB values n Set a new value for a MIB object at the device
Contacting the DeviceBefore you can access MIB information for a device through a MIB browser, you must establish contact with the device. You contact a device through the MIB browser interface by specifying the device’s IP address and the community name.
SNMP community names are used to control management access to a device. The level of control that a managing entity has over the device corresponds to the access level provided by the community name used in a management request: Read Only, Read-Write, or Superuser.
For SNMP communication to take place, the SNMP agent must be running on the device and the specified community name must match one of the device’s community names. SNMP runs as a daemon on Solaris and as a service on NT.
Follow these steps to determine if the SNMP agent is running on the device:
1. Telnet to the device
2. Issue the ps command and look for an entry for the snmpd process. For example, this entry may read:
407 0 S0 7e8d0 103c 7f7f4 12 12 0 18 0:00.017 ? snmpd

Browsing the MIB TreeA graphical MIB browser provides an interface that lets you query any SNMP device on your network and examine its supported MIBs. The MIB information is visually structured into a tree format, similar to a directory tree. Using the mouse, you can scroll through the tree and click on folder icons to open the tree layer of interest. Like a file directory tree, the MIB Tree is represented by a series of collapsible and expandable folders, with the individual MIB Objects contained in each folder.
Once you have successfully contacted a device, you will be able to browse its supported MIBs through a MIB tree display in the browser window, and query the device for its MIB object values. Like a file directory tree, the MIB tree is represented by a series of collapsible and expandable folders, containing the individual MIB objects.
Figure 5-1 shows the top level of the MIB tree is shown. When you click on a level of a tree, it is highlighted to show that it is selected. Each branch of the tree is indicated by a folder.

Figure 5-2 shows that the iso –> org –> dod –> internet branch has been opened. Each folder icon changes and is marked with a minus sign (-) to denote that it has been expanded. The mgmt and private folders are marked with a plus sign (+), indicating that they are expandable to reveal more information, but have not yet been opened.
A folder without a plus sign (+) or minus sign (-) indicates an empty tree branch that is not expandable.

Figure 5-3 The MIB Tree Expanded to Reveal an Object
SNMP Get/Get NextTo find the current value set at the selected device for a specific MIB object or set of objects, you must query the device for the information. A query consists of an SNMP Get (to retrieve a specific piece of management information) or SNMP GetNext (to traverse a portion of the tree and retrieve all its information) command issued by the browser to the contacted device. When you query a device, it returns a value for every instance of the specified object(s).

SNMP SetWith a MIB browser, you can change the value of a writable object in a device’s MIB. This is accomplished with an SNMP Set command. If you attempt to change the value of an object and a message similar to “Selected item is not write enabled.” appears. This may occur because:
n You do not have permission to write to the devicen The object itself has been designated read-only. n Objects which are present in the device have not been added to the current MIB
database.
Before you begin, you can determine if an object is writable by performing a query on the object and reading the data that is returned.
Compiling and Importing New SNMP MIBsThere are several reasons that you may want to import additional or updated MIBs into your database, or create custom MIB databases:
n You want to manage third-party devices not already supported, you will need to import their vendors’ private MIBs (which will not be included in your default MIB database).
n MIBs — especially private MIBs — are frequently updated, and you may need to import a new version of a MIB.
n Some of your newer networking devices may still be under heavy development, and new firmware may include functionality provided by entirely new private MIBs.
By importing new and updated MIBs to create custom MIB databases, you can ensure that your MIB databases remain up-to-date and contain all the MIB information you need to successfully monitor and manage your network devices.
Sample TasksThis section provides two sample tasks using a graphical MIB browser:
n Accessing MIB variable informationn Changing a MIB variable
Release 1.1 Using a MIB Browser to Access MIB Variables
526362-001-00 Rev B 5-7
Accessing MIB Variable InformationTo find the current value set at the selected device for a specific MIB object or set of objects, the MIB browser issues an SNMP Get command (to retrieve a specific piece of management information) or SNMP Get Next command (to traverse a portion of the tree and retrieve all its information).
Sample TaskA network administrator needs to know how long a particular device has been on-line since it was last rebooted. In our example, we will be finding the value of the sysUpTime object. The MIB hierarchy that leads to the sysUpTime object is:
1.2.6.1.2.1.13
iso -> org -> dod-> internet -> mgmt -> mib-2 -> system -> sysUpTime
To query a device for the value of the sysUpTime object, do the following:
1. Start your MIB browser.
2. Connect to the device of interest by specifying the device’s IP address and community name.
Note: Be sure that you have contacted the device and that you are using a community name which provides you with write access to the desired MIB object. The appropriate community name may depend upon which MIB component contains the object you want to set. Refer to Contacting the Device on page 5-2.

Value 28 days 20:05:41
Changing MIB VariablesTo change the value of a writable MIB object, the MIB browser issues an SNMP Set command. Before you begin, you can determine if an object is writable by performing a query on the object and reading the data that is returned. See Accessing MIB Variable Information on page 5-7.
Sample TaskA network administrator wants to clear all messages from the syslog files on a remote syslog server device. In our example, we will be changing the value of the rdnSyslogClear object. The MIB hierarchy that leads to the rdnSyslogClear object is:
1.2.6.1.4.1.4981.3.7
iso -> org -> dod -> internet -> private -> enterprises -> rdn -> syslog ->rdnSyslogClear
Note: Depending on the particular MIB browser application that you are using, the query information for the sysUpTime object may be accessed and displayed differently. Refer to your MIB browser documentation.
Note: Be sure that you have contacted the device and that you are using a community name which provides you with write access to the desired MIB object. The appropriate community name may depend upon which MIB component contains the object you want to set. Refer to Contacting the Device on page 5-2.
BSR 2000 SNMP MIB Reference Guide Release 1.1

Follow these steps to change the value of the rdnSyslogClear object on a device:
1. Start your MIB browser.
2. Connect to the device of interest by specifying the device’s IP address and community name.
3. In the MIB tree display, navigate through the MIB hierarchy until you reach the rdn folder (Figure 5-7).
