Description: Aruba wired switch ArubaOS-CX IGMP/MLD snooping configuration and group membership.

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 ARUBAWIRED-MGMD-SNOOPING-MIB?

ARUBAWIRED-MGMD-SNOOPING-MIB is an HPE Aruba proprietary MIB for ArubaOS-CX wired switches, covering Multicast Group Membership Discovery (MGMD) snooping — the combined IGMP (IPv4) and MLD (IPv6) snooping feature that controls efficient Layer 2 multicast forwarding. It is expected to expose configuration objects for enabling and tuning snooping per VLAN/port and operational objects for tracking discovered multicast group memberships. Its monitoring value is centered on multicast service correctness rather than hardware health — administrators would use it to confirm snooping is enabled where required and see which ports/VLANs have active multicast group subscribers, helping troubleshoot missing or excessive multicast flooding. It builds on the standard IGMP (RFC 3376) and MLD (RFC 2710) protocols that MGMD snooping is based on. It is deployed on Aruba (HPE) ArubaOS-CX wired switches in campus or data-center networks running multicast applications such as IPTV or financial market data feeds, with configuration options documented in the ARUBAWIRED-MGMD-SNOOPING-MIB MIB.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in ARUBAWIRED-MGMD-SNOOPING-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

  • HPE Aruba ArubaOS-CX wired switches

Monitoring Examples

No sample_objects were captured for this module, so no concrete object or table names can be honestly cited; the module_desc only confirms its scope is HPE's MGMD Snooping services configuration. In practice such a MIB would typically be polled to check per-VLAN snooping enable state and current multicast group membership per port, but this cannot be grounded in specific object names from the available data.

What Can Be Monitored

  • MGMD (IGMP/MLD) snooping admin state
  • per-VLAN/port multicast group membership

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using arubaWiredMgmdSnoopingVlanEntryStatGeneralQueryRx OID:

Select an Aruba (HPE) ArubaOS-CX wired switch as the target host to create a monitor — the SNMP service should be up and running on it. Click New Monitor, then check SNMP Custom on the Favorites tab, click Next, and confirm the host. On the next page, click Select... to open the built-in SNMP MIB Browser and type arubaWiredMgmdSnoopingVlanEntryStatGeneralQueryRx into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, selecting the specific row/instance you want to monitor since this is a table column, then select it and click OK. It reports the number of General Queries received by this VLAN. On the monitor's Main parameters page you can set the target's SNMP port (default 161), credentials, polling interval, and other settings — see the SNMP Monitor help for details. On the State conditions and Alerting tabs, configure when the monitor should change state and trigger an alert; since this is a Counter32-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the counter increases sharply between polls relative to its normal baseline, since an unexpected spike often reflects a real change in traffic or activity. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
