Duralink64 SNMP Agents, Monitoring the NICs by SNMP

Page 121 highlights

C Duralink64 SNMP Agents Windows NT and NetWare SNMP agents are provided to support Failover and Port Aggregation capabilities. These agents handle standard port configurations, Failover pairs, and Port Aggregation. Use of the agents allow remote monitoring from any standard network management station with SNMP (version 1) support. The following information is provided: s Information group-containing card, port, and interface counts. s Interface statistics table-listing characteristics and summary statistics for individual port interfaces, Failover groups, and multiple port load balancing groups. s Port statistics table-listing all ports grouped by interface and providing characteristics and statistics for each individual port. Port 1 in any multiple group is always the port that is available to be bound to protocol stacks. s Card information table-describing each Adaptec network card on the system. s Card port information table-sorted by network card listing all ports and the interface to which they are assigned. s Trap definition-for traps that are generated when the status of any port changes. Monitoring the NICs by SNMP The duralink.mib file must be compiled on the SNMP Management station to manage the NICs. This file is located on the Duralink64 for Windows CD in the snmpmibs directory.

Duralink64 SNMP Agents
Windows NT and NetWare SNMP agents are provided to support
Failover and Port Aggregation capabilities. These agents handle
standard port configurations, Failover pairs, and Port Aggregation.
Use of the agents allow remote monitoring from any standard
network management station with SNMP (version 1) support.
The following information is provided:
Information group
—containing card, port, and interface counts.
Interface statistics table
—listing characteristics and summary
statistics for individual port interfaces, Failover groups, and
multiple port load balancing groups.
Port statistics table
—listing all ports grouped by interface and
providing characteristics and statistics for each individual port.
Port 1 in any multiple group is always the port that is available
to be bound to protocol stacks.
Card information table
—describing each Adaptec network card
on the system.
Card port information table
—sorted by network card listing all
ports and the interface to which they are assigned.
Trap definition
—for traps that are generated when the status of
any port changes.
Monitoring the NICs by SNMP
The
duralink.mib
file must be compiled on the SNMP Management
station to manage the NICs. This file is located on the Duralink64
for Windows CD in the
snmpmibs
directory.
