CISCO-GTP-CAPABILITY

Description: Declares SNMP agent capability statements for the CISCO-GTP-MIB GPRS Tunneling Protocol management 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.

CISCO-GTP-CAPABILITY is a Cisco AGENT-CAPABILITIES module describing the SNMP agent's level of support for the companion CISCO-GTP-MIB, which manages GPRS Tunneling Protocol (GTP) state used in mobile-network (GGSN/SGSN-style) tunneling on Cisco platforms. It contains no runtime data objects, only declarations of which GTP MIB groups, objects, and notification variations are implemented on a given Cisco platform/software release. It therefore serves no direct monitoring role for hardware or software status; its function is to inform management systems what GTP tunnel/session data can be polled from the underlying CISCO-GTP-MIB. It is entirely dependent on the CISCO-GTP-MIB it describes conformance for. It is used by mobile-network operators' NMS/OSS tooling to validate GTP monitoring support across Cisco mobile-packet-core platforms. Engineers can download the CISCO-GTP-CAPABILITY file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

This is a conformance/AGENT-CAPABILITIES module containing SUPPORTS/VARIATION clauses referencing CISCO-GTP-MIB groups rather than runtime data, so no monitoring scenario applies -- a management tool would consult it to check, for example, whether GTP tunnel or path-management status objects are implemented before polling the referenced GTP MIB. No sample_objects were present in the source, consistent with a capabilities-only module.
