Description: Declares agent capabilities for Cisco Express Forwarding (CEF) on Catalyst switch 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-SWITCH-CEF-CAPABILITY?

CISCO-SWITCH-CEF-CAPABILITY is an AGENT-CAPABILITIES module declaring which features of CISCO-SWITCH-CEF-MIB, covering Cisco Express Forwarding (CEF) on Catalyst switch platforms, a given switch's SNMP agent supports. It belongs to Cisco's Layer 3 switching/forwarding conformance MIB family. As a pure capability statement it contains no runtime forwarding-table statistics, CEF drop counters, or consistency-check results itself; it only enumerates supported object groups. It is dependent on CISCO-SWITCH-CEF-MIB, the functional module whose CEF feature support it profiles. Such capability declarations are used by management platforms to confirm CEF monitoring/consistency-checking support on a specific Cisco Catalyst switch model and software version. Engineers can download the CISCO-SWITCH-CEF-CAPABILITY file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in CISCO-SWITCH-CEF-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 Catalyst switches (CEF-capable)

Monitoring Examples

This is a conformance/AGENT-CAPABILITIES module with no runtime data objects (sample_objects is empty), so no monitoring scenario applies; it only documents which CISCO-SWITCH-CEF-MIB features the switch agent implements.
