Description: Declares SNMP agent capabilities for port storm control traffic rate limiting on Cisco switching 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-PORT-STORM-CONTROL-CAPABILITY?

This is an AGENT-CAPABILITIES conformance module for Cisco switching platforms, declaring agent support for CISCO-PORT-STORM-CONTROL-MIB, which governs broadcast/multicast/unicast storm-control rate limiting per port. It contains no runtime data objects, only statements about which storm-control groups and object variations a given Cisco IOS/IOS-XE/NX-OS image implements. It is therefore not used for live hardware or software status monitoring, but rather to inform NMS tools and MIB compilers which storm-control features are available on a specific platform and release. It depends entirely on the base CISCO-PORT-STORM-CONTROL-MIB it declares conformance to. It is typically bundled with Cisco IOS/NX-OS release documentation for SNMP feature support verification, making the CISCO-PORT-STORM-CONTROL-CAPABILITY reference the way to confirm storm-control support on a given release.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in CISCO-PORT-STORM-CONTROL-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 switch (IOS/IOS-XE/NX-OS platforms)

Monitoring Examples

This module is an AGENT-CAPABILITIES conformance declaration with no runtime data objects, so there is no monitoring scenario to describe; it only documents which CISCO-PORT-STORM-CONTROL-MIB groups a given Cisco platform/release supports.
