Description: Manages the H3C Application Controlled Forwarding Protocol (ACFP), enabling dynamic policy-based traffic redirection.

Start monitoring vendor-neutral, standards-based MIB, any SNMPv3-capable network device (SNMP engine identity/boot/clock status) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Import MIBs, browse SNMP OIDs, create custom SNMP monitors, configure alerts, and monitor any SNMP-enabled network device from a single console.

What Is A3COM-HUAWEI-ACFP-MIB?

A3COM-HUAWEI-ACFP-MIB manages H3C's Application Controlled Forwarding Protocol (ACFP), a proprietary mechanism for dynamically redirecting traffic to policy-controlled forwarding contexts or service appliances, on H3C/3Com switches and routers. It exposes server-side session configuration (maximum lifetime, persistent rules, current context type) and a per-client registration/information table for devices participating in ACFP. Notably for hardware/software status monitoring, h3cAcfpClientHwVersion, h3cAcfpClientOSVersion, and h3cAcfpClientAppVersion expose the firmware, OS, and application software version of each registered ACFP client, letting operators track software compliance across redirect-target devices. Dependency: this is a proprietary H3C protocol extension with no direct dependency on a specific IETF standard MIB. Typical deployment is on H3C switches/routers using ACFP to steer traffic dynamically to security, optimization, or other service appliances. Engineers can download the A3COM-HUAWEI-ACFP-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in A3COM-HUAWEI-ACFP-MIB. Use the built-in SNMP Monitoring Browser to explore available variables, view their current values and descriptions, and select the objects you want to monitor. You can then create SNMP monitors, configure thresholds, and receive alerts when monitored values change.

Supported Devices

  • H3C switches and routers running ACFP

Monitoring Examples

Walking h3cAcfpClientInfoTable (keyed by h3cAcfpClientID) surfaces each registered client's h3cAcfpClientHwVersion, h3cAcfpClientOSVersion, and h3cAcfpClientAppVersion, letting an admin confirm all redirect-target appliances are running expected firmware before a policy push. Monitoring h3cAcfpServerMaxLifetime and h3cAcfpServerCurContextType helps detect misconfigured server sessions or unexpected persistent-rule states that could cause traffic to be redirected incorrectly.

What Can Be Monitored

  • ACFP client hardware version
  • ACFP client OS/software version
  • ACFP client application version
  • ACFP client IP and description
  • server session lifetime/context state
