CISCO-ERM-CAPABILITY

Description: Declares SNMP agent capability statements for the CISCO-ERM-MIB Embedded Resource Manager implementation on Cisco platforms.

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.

This is a Cisco AGENT-CAPABILITIES module declaring which objects and groups of CISCO-ERM-MIB (the Embedded Resource Manager MIB, used for monitoring shared hardware resources like TCAM/ACL resources on Cisco platforms) are implemented by a given SNMP agent. It defines no runtime data objects of its own, functioning purely as a conformance statement for management system capability negotiation. Because it exposes no operational objects, it plays no direct role in monitoring hardware/software status itself, that responsibility belongs to CISCO-ERM-MIB, whose supported feature set this module documents per platform/software release. It is explicitly dependent on CISCO-ERM-MIB, the resource-manager MIB it describes agent conformance for. It is used internally during SNMP capability discovery on Cisco platforms implementing Embedded Resource Manager resource tracking. Engineers can download the CISCO-ERM-CAPABILITY file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

This is a conformance/AGENT-CAPABILITIES module with no runtime data objects; the sample_objects list is empty since it contains only capability declarations, not pollable resource-utilization data. Actual embedded resource monitoring (e.g., TCAM/ACL utilization) is performed via CISCO-ERM-MIB, which this module declares agent support for.
