Description: Declares SNMP agent capabilities for NetFlow traffic analysis and export on Cisco routing 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.
What Is CISCO-NETFLOW-CAPABILITY?
CISCO-NETFLOW-CAPABILITY is a Cisco Systems AGENT-CAPABILITIES conformance module declaring which parts of the standard CISCO-NETFLOW-MIB a given Cisco device/software image implements (NetFlow traffic-flow accounting). Like other capability modules, it is a compatibility/conformance declaration rather than a data-bearing MIB, carrying no scalar or table objects of its own. Its role is limited to MIB-compilation and network-management-system compatibility checking rather than runtime monitoring. It is present wherever Cisco devices implement NetFlow traffic-flow accounting and register their CISCO-NETFLOW-MIB conformance. Engineers can download the CISCO-NETFLOW-CAPABILITY file directly to load it into their MIB browser.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in CISCO-NETFLOW-CAPABILITY. 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 Systems devices implementing NetFlow traffic-flow accounting
Monitoring Examples
A network management system consults this capability module during MIB compilation to determine which optional CISCO-NETFLOW-MIB object groups a given Cisco device actually implements before attempting to poll them.
