Import MIBs, browse SNMP OIDs, create custom SNMP monitors, configure alerts, and monitor any SNMP-enabled network device from a single console.
What Is CISCO-CEF-MIB?
CISCO-CEF-MIB manages Cisco Express Forwarding (CEF), the high-speed Layer-3 packet-switching mechanism Cisco routers use to forward IP packets from an inbound to an outbound interface using precomputed Forwarding Information Base (FIB) and adjacency data structures instead of route-cache lookups. Although no sample objects were provided for this batch, the module is understood, per its description, to instrument the FIB (forwarding decisions, conceptually similar to a routing table) and the adjacency table (next-hop relationships between nodes) with associated statistics and status. Its monitoring value is in tracking software forwarding-plane health and performance—operators use CEF instrumentation to verify FIB consistency, detect adjacency/next-hop resolution failures, and watch packet-switching load-balancing behavior, since CEF failures or inconsistencies directly cause traffic black-holing or suboptimal routing. It builds conceptually on the standard IP forwarding/routing framework, extending it with Cisco's CEF-specific forwarding-plane details. It is deployed on Cisco routers and Layer-3 switches across enterprise and service-provider networks wherever CEF is the active IP switching mode, which is the Cisco default on most platforms. Network engineers searching for cisco cef reference this MIB to confirm Cisco Express Forwarding table consistency and drop statistics via SNMP.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in CISCO-CEF-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
- Cisco routers
- Cisco Layer-3 switches
Monitoring Examples
With no sample_objects provided for this module, only the conceptual data structures described in the MODULE-IDENTITY text can be cited: the Forwarding Information Base (FIB), which mirrors routing/route-cache decisions, and the Adjacency table, which tracks next-hop relationships between network nodes. A realistic scenario would involve polling FIB-related entries for prefix count and consistency and adjacency-table entries for next-hop resolution failures, but without actual object names available here, specific OID-level polling detail cannot be responsibly stated.
What Can Be Monitored
- FIB (forwarding information base) status
- adjacency table entries
- CEF packet-switching statistics

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor
Example using cefPrefixPkts OID:
Select a Cisco routers/Layer-3 switch (Cisco Express Forwarding) 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 cefPrefixPkts 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 if CEF accounting is set to enable per prefix accounting (value of cefCfgAccountingMap object in the cefCfgEntry is set to enable 'perPrefix' accounting), then this object represents the number of packets switched to this prefix. 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 (in packets), 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.

| cefLMPrefixEntry | 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.492.1.1.4.1 | not-accessible | If CEF is enabled on the managed device, then each entry represents a longest Match Prefix request. A management station wishing to get the longest Match prefix for a given destination address should create the associate instance of the row status. The row status should be set to active(1) to initiate the request. Note that this entire procedure may be initiated via a single set request which specifies a row status of createAndGo(4). Once the request completes, the management station should retrieve the values of the objects of interest, and should then delete the entry. In order to prevent old entries from clogging the table, entries will be aged out, but an entry will never be deleted within 5 minutes of completion. Entries are lost after an agent restart. I.e. to find out the longest prefix match for destination address of A.B.C.D on entity whose entityPhysicalIndex is 1, the Management station will create an entry in cefLMPrefixTable with cefLMPrefixRowStatus.1(entPhysicalIndex).1(ipv4).A.B.C.D set to createAndGo(4). Management Station may query the value of objects cefLMPrefix and cefLMPrefixLen to find out the corresponding prefix entry from the cefPrefixTable once the value of cefLMPrefixState is set to matchFound(2). entPhysicalIndex is also an index for this table which represents entities of 'module' entPhysicalClass which are capable of running CEF. | |

When creating a new longest prefix match entry, the value of cefLMPrefixSpinLock should be retrieved. The destination address should be determined to be unique by the SNMP Command Generator application by consulting the cefLMPrefixTable. Finally, the longest prefix entry may be created (Set), including the advisory lock. If another SNMP Command Generator application has altered the longest prefix entry in the meantime, then the spin lock's value will have changed, and so this creation will fail because it will specify the wrong value for the spin lock. Since this is an advisory lock, the use of this lock is not enforced, but not using this lock may lead to conflict with the another SNMP command responder application which may also be acting on the cefLMPrefixTable. |

| I32 cefNotifThrottlingInterval | 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.492.1.9.4 | Integer32 | read-write | This object controls the generation of the cefInconsistencyDetection notification. If this object has a value of zero, then the throttle control is disabled. If this object has a non-zero value, then the agent must not generate more than one cefInconsistencyDetection 'notification-event' in the indicated period, where a 'notification-event' is the transmission of a single trap or inform PDU to a list of notification destinations. If additional inconsistency is detected within the throttling period, then notification-events for these inconsistencies should be suppressed by the agent until the current throttling period expires. At the end of a throttling period, one notification-event should be generated if any inconsistency was detected since the start of the throttling period. In such a case, another throttling period is started right away. An NMS should periodically poll cefInconsistencyRecordTable to detect any missed cefInconsistencyDetection notification-events, e.g., due to throttling or transmission loss. If cefNotifThrottlingInterval notification generation is enabled, the suggested default throttling period is 60 seconds, but generation of the cefInconsistencyDetection notification should be disabled by default. If the agent is capable of storing non-volatile configuration, then the value of this object must be restored after a re-initialization of the management system. The actual transmission of notifications is controlled via the MIB modules in RFC 3413. |

| ciscoCefMIB | 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.492 | Cisco Express Forwarding (CEF) describes a high speed switching mechanism that a router uses to forward packets from the inbound to the outbound interface. CEF uses two sets of data structures or tables, which it stores in router memory: Forwarding information base (FIB) - Describes a database of information used to make forwarding decisions. It is conceptually similar to a routing table or route-cache, although its implementation is different. Adjacency - Two nodes in the network are said to be adjacent if they can reach each other via a single hop across a link layer. CEF path is a valid route to reach to a destination IP prefix. Multiple paths may exist out of a router to the same destination prefix. CEF Load balancing capability share the traffic to the destination IP prefix over all the active paths. After obtaining the prefix in the CEF table with the longest match, output forwarding follows the chain of forwarding elements. Forwarding element (FE) may process the packet, forward the packet, drop or punt the packet or it may also pass the packet to the next forwarding element in the chain for further processing. Forwarding Elements are of various types but this MIB only represents the forwarding elements of adjacency and label types. Hence a forwarding element chain will be represented as a list of labels and adjacency. The adjacency may point to a forwarding element list again, if it is not the last forwarding element in this chain. For the simplest IP forwarding case, the prefix entry will point at an adjacency forwarding element. The IP adjacency processing function will apply the output features, add the encapsulation (performing any required fixups), and may send the packet out. If loadbalancing is configured, the prefix entry will point to lists of forwarding elements. One of these lists will be selected to forward the packet. Each forwarding element list dictates which of a set of possible packet transformations to apply on the way to the same neighbour. The following diagram represents relationship between three of the core tables in this MIB module. cefPrefixTable cefFESelectionTable +---------------+ points +--------------+ | | | | a set +----> | | | | | |---------------| of FE | |--------------| | | | | Selection | | | | | | |---------------| Entries | |--------------| | | | |------------+ | || | | | to a set | |---------------| of FE | | | | | Selection | |---------------| Entries | | | | |----------------+ |---------------| | | +---------------+ Some of the Cisco series routers (e.g. 7500 & 12000) support distributed CEF (dCEF), in which the line cards (LCs) make the packet forwarding decisions using locally stored copies of the same Forwarding information base (FIB) and adjacency tables as the Routing Processor (RP). Inter-Process Communication (IPC) is the protocol used by routers that support distributed packet forwarding. CEF updates are encoded as external Data Representation (XDR) information elements inside IPC messages. This MIB reflects the distributed nature of CEF, e.g. CEF has different instances running on the RP and the line cards. There may be instances of inconsistency between the CEF forwarding databases(i.e between CEF forwarding database on line cards and the CEF forwarding database on the RP). CEF consistency checkers (CC) detects this inconsistency. When two databases are compared by a consistency checker, a set of records from the first (master) database is looked up in the second (slave). There are two types of consistency checkers, active and passive. Active consistency checkers are invoked in response to some stimulus, i.e. when a packet cannot be forwarded because the prefix is not in the forwarding table or in response to a Management Station request. Passive consistency checkers operate in the background, scanning portions of the databases on a periodic basis. The full-scan checkers are active consistency checkers which are invoked in response to a Management Station Request. If 64-bit counter objects in this MIB are supported, then their associated 32-bit counter objects must also be supported. The 32-bit counters will report the low 32-bits of the associated 64-bit counter count (e.g., cefPrefixPkts will report the least significant 32 bits of cefPrefixHCPkts). The same rule should be applied for the 64-bit gauge objects and their assocaited 32-bit gauge objects. If 64-bit counters in this MIB are not supported, then an agent MUST NOT instantiate the corresponding objects with an incorrect value; rather, it MUST respond with the appropriate error/exception condition (e.g., noSuchInstance or noSuchName). Counters related to CEF accounting (e.g., cefPrefixPkts) MUST NOT be instantiated if the corresponding accounting method has been disabled. This MIB allows configuration and monitoring of CEF related objects. | ||
