| NTF a3ComPollResponseReceived | 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.0.61 | | | This trap is generated when the PollTable in the managed agent receives replies to a poll after a sequence of unsuccessful polls. The number of packets in such sequence is determined from the a3ComPollAttempts object. The variables are: a3ComPollAddress - the address of the device polled. a3ComPollAddressType - the type of the address above. a3ComPollAttempts - number of replies received in sequence before this trap was triggered. a3ComPollRate - rate at which device is being polled. 0 = burst. a3ComPollFramesSent - total number of frames sent. a3ComPollFramesReceived - total number of frames received. This event is generated at most once per monitored device per operation of a sequence of ping response when the event is first observed. |
| NTF a3ComPollResponseNotReceived | 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.0.62 | | | This trap is generated when the PollTable in the managed agent receives no replies to a poll after a sequence of successful polls. The number of packets in such sequence is determined from the a3ComPollAttempts object. The variables are: a3ComPollAddress - the address of the device polled. a3ComPollAddressType - the type of the address above. a3ComPollAttempts - number of replies missed in sequence before this trap was triggered. a3ComPollRate - rate at which device is being polled. 0 = burst. a3ComPollFramesSent - total number of frames sent. a3ComPollFramesReceived - total number of frames received. This event is generated at most once per monitored device per operation of a sequence of ping fails when the event is first observed. |

| a3ComPollTable | 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.22.1 | | not-accessible | This table is used to provide remote device monitoring facilities.
The implementation allows a list of network devices to be set up
and polled regularly (or only once) by a variety of protocols.
The table can be configured to inform the management station(s)
of devices that are not responding to polls or that have started
to respond after a period of silence.
The minimum effort required to do a single poll is
1. In one packet, write the address and set a3ComPollAction to
activate(2).
2. In the next packet, read the a3ComPollReport.
The minimum effort required to monitor a device is
1. In one packet, write the address, set a3ComPollAttempts to 1,
set a3ComPollCount to 0 and set a3ComPollAction to activate(2).
2. Wait for traps to come in.
A row in this table is created by setting any read-write member,
indexed by the next available index (a3ComPollNextFreeIndex). This
method of creation makes the table very user friendly, although
a bit harder to detect racing conditions. The suggested method for
racing condition detection is by checking the a3ComPollAddress and
a3ComPollOwner objects while the a3ComPollReport object is set to
active. An example of the indexing of this table is a3ComPollRate.2 |
| a3ComPollEntry | 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.22.1.1 | | not-accessible | A table used to define device monitoring. A row in this table is
created by setting any read-write member, indexed by the next
available index (a3ComPollNextFreeIndex). An entry in this table is
deleted by setting a3ComPollAction to destroy(5). An example of the
indexing of this table is a3ComPollRate.2 This method of creation
makes the table very user friendly, although a bit harder to detect
racing conditions. The suggested method for racing condition
detection is by checking the a3ComPollAddress and a3ComPollOwner
objects while the a3ComPollReport object is set to active. |
| INT a3ComPollIndex | 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.22.1.1.1 | INTEGER | read-only | Unique identifier of a row in the Poll Table. The actual number
of rows that can be created on any particular device depends on
the memory and processing resources available at the time. |
| STR a3ComPollAddress | 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.22.1.1.2 | DisplayString | read-write | This DisplayString is the network address of the device to
monitor. Typically this is an IP, dotted IP format, IP's
hostname, IPX or AppleTalk. The following formats can be used:
IP cccc - ipAddress MIB
IP nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn - dotted format
IP hostname
IPX AABBCCDD:AABBCCDDEEFF - network : node
AppleTalk n[...].n[...] - dotted notation
The object a3ComPollAddressType is used to indicate how this
object will be interpreted.
This object may not be modified if the associated a3ComPollReport
is equal to busy(2). When this object is successfully set,
a3ComPollReport will be set to idle(1). |
| INT a3ComPollAddressType | 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.22.1.1.3 | INTEGER | read-write | This defines the method used to interpret the a3ComPollAddress,
which implies on the protocol to be used.
Writing an address to the a3ComPollAddress object causes a default
a3ComPollAddressType value to be setup. The default value is
derived from the format of the address - four octets means ip(2),
four sets of numeric values separated by dot means ipdotted(3), eight
and twelve octets separated by colon means ipx(5), and two sets of
numeric values separated by a dot means appletalk(6). If the address
type cannot be figured out, and this object is not currently set to
ipname(4), it will then be set to unknown(1). In other words, this
object will remain unchanged if its current value is ipname(4) and
a more specific type cannot be given to it. Thus, for the mot part,
when setting this object manually, that needs to be done after
setting a3ComPollAddress.
For ip hostname(4), this field must be set manually. Furthermore,
DNS client must be locally enabled to allow for conversion from name
to ip address.
If the requested protocol is not supported or is not compatible
with the a3ComPollAddress, an error is returned when an attempt is
made to set a3ComPollAction to activate(2), and a3ComPollReport will
be set to noResource(4).
This object may not be modified if the associated a3ComPollReport
is equal to busy(2). When this object is successfully set,
a3ComPollReport will be set to idle(1). |
| INT a3ComPollCount | 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.22.1.1.4 | INTEGER | read-write | This integer is the number of ping packets to be sent out until
completion of a polling command. If count is set to continuous(0),
the remote device will be kept monitored and the a3ComPollReport
will be normally set to busy(2) upon poll activation.
This object may not be modified if the associated a3ComPollReport
is equal to busy(2). When this object is successfully set,
a3ComPollReport will be set to idle(1). |
| INT a3ComPollAttempts | 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.22.1.1.5 | INTEGER | read-write | The number of unsuccessful or successful requests necessary before
deciding that the device is definitely not responding or responding.
In order to use traps, a value greater than one must be used.
Conversely, a value of zero, which is the default, would imply that
traps are disabled.
This object may not be modified if the associated a3ComPollReport
object is equal to busy(2). When this object is successfully set,
a3ComPollReport will be set to idle(1). |
| INT a3ComPollRate | 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.22.1.1.6 | INTEGER | read-write | This defines how often, in seconds, a poll packet is sent to
the device being polled.
If burst mode(0) is chosen, then number of packets selected will
be sent out as fast as possible when the a3ComPollAction is set to
activate(2).
Common values the a3ComPollRate can be set to:
every 3 seconds (3) default every minute (60)
every 5 minutes (300) every 15 minutes (900)
every 30 minutes (1800) every hour (3600)
This object may not be modified if the associated a3ComPollReport
is equal to busy(2). When this object is successfully set,
a3ComPollReport will be set to idle(1). |
| INT a3ComPollResponseTimeOut | 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.22.1.1.7 | INTEGER | read-write | Maximum wait time, in msecs, for a response packet before deciding
that no response arrived. This object differs from a3ComPollRate
as the device have the sending and receiving queues independent,
making it possible to send ping requests at rates faster than
receiving.
The value of 0 (default) will be interpreted as a request for
time-out by the time a new packet is sent, and 65535 as a request for
maximum wait. Assuming that burst is used and this object is set to
one, most likely all packets sent will be interpreted as timed out.
This object may not be modified if the associated a3ComPollReport
is equal to busy(2). When this object is successfully set,
a3ComPollReport will be set to idle(1). |
| INT a3ComPollPacketSize | 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.22.1.1.8 | INTEGER | read-write | Size, in bytes, of ping packet to be sent out. If set to 0, the
default size for ping packet under the protocol chosen will be used.
If value given is to too large or too small, the biggest or smallest
possible packets will be used, respectively, and no errors will be
issued.
This object may not be modified if the associated a3ComPollReport
is equal to busy(2). When this object is successfully set,
a3ComPollReport will be set to idle(1). |
| STR a3ComPollSourceAddress | 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.22.1.1.9 | DisplayString | read-write | This DisplayString is the network address of the local interface
to receive ping query. Typically this is an IP, IPX or AppleTalk.
The following formats can be used.
IP cccc - ipAddress MIB
IP nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn - dotted format
IPX AABBCCDD:AABBCCDDEEFF - network : node
AppleTalk n[...].n[...] - dotted notation
If a3ComPollSourceAddress is set to empty, which is the default
value, the sending device will pick the best interface to receive
the response for its queries.
The object a3ComPollAddressType is used to indicate how this
object will be interpreted, as well as a3ComPollAddress. An
exception exists when a3ComPollAddressType is set to ipname(4):
this object will be parsed as if a3ComPollAddressType was set to
ip(2) or as ipdotted(3), depending on the length of the object
value. Therefore, ip name is not supported for a3ComPollSourceAddress.
This object may not be modified if the associated a3ComPollReport
is equal to busy(2). When this object is successfully set,
a3ComPollReport will be set to idle(1). |
| INT a3ComPollMinRoundTripTime | 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.22.1.1.10 | INTEGER | read-only | The minimum amount of time taken, in msecs, for the round trip of a
ping packet. |
| INT a3ComPollAvgRoundTripTime | 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.22.1.1.11 | INTEGER | read-only | The average amount of time taken, in msecs, for the round trip of a
ping packet. |
| INT a3ComPollMaxRoundTripTime | 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.22.1.1.12 | INTEGER | read-only | The maximum amount of time taken, in msecs, for the round trip of a
ping packet. |
| INT a3ComPollFramesSent | 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.22.1.1.13 | INTEGER | read-only | The number of ping packets sent to remote device so far. |
| INT a3ComPollFramesReceived | 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.22.1.1.14 | INTEGER | read-only | The number of ping packets responded by remote device so far.
If a3ComPollResponseTimeOut is a non-zero value, and the poll
response arrives after the specified timeout, this object will
not increment. |
| STR a3ComPollInformation | 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.22.1.1.15 | DisplayString | read-only | Depending on the protocol being used, this object contains extra
information obtained through the device poll. For IP, the value is
the number of packets that arrived out of sequence. If Apple Talk is
used, this value represents the number of hops. An empty string,
which is the default, stands for no extra information available.
This object will reset every time a change is observed on
a3ComPollAddressType. |
| STR a3ComPollOwner | 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.22.1.1.16 | DisplayString | read-write | The RMON OwnerString conventions are used here to
help control the multi-manager situations. |
| INT a3ComPollReport | 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.22.1.1.17 | INTEGER | read-only | This integer contains the current status of the poll entry. When
the state changes from busy to any other, the entry is no longer
active. In situations where the a3ComPollCount field is set to
continuous(0), this object will normally be set to busy(2) upon
successful activation. |
| INT a3ComPollAction | 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.22.1.1.18 | INTEGER | read-write | This object is the trigger for initiating, stopping, resetting and
destroying a poll entry. In order to read the current status of an
entry, a3ComPollReport is the object to be queried. If reset(4)
action is requested, the poll entry will unconditionally be moved
to the idle(1) state and all objects, except for the pollAddress
and pollAddressType will be set to initial values. Another object
that is not affected by reset(4) is the owner object. Activating
an entry that is in the busy(2) state has no effect. |
| INT a3ComPollNextFreeIndex | 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.22.2 | INTEGER | read-only | The index for the next available remote polling entry in the table. |
| STR a3ComPollTableInformation | 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.22.3 | DisplayString | read-only | This object provides a summary on the entire poll table. Internal
thresholds, such as the maximum number of entries, as well the
number of entries that can be active simultaneously are commonly
provided here. Another information that can be given is the list of
protocols the agent can handle.
An empty string for a3ComPollTableInformation stands for no table
information available. |
| INT a3ComPollTableActionAll | 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.29.4.22.4 | INTEGER | read-write | This object works exactly as a3ComPollAction, except that it
affects every entry in the table, in one snmp transaction.
If a3ComPollTableActionAll is called with destroy(5), the table
is purged. |
