What Is DES6500-SWL2MGMT-MIB?

DES6500-SWL2MGMT-MIB is a D-Link vendor MIB providing software-based Layer 2 switching management for the D-Link DES-6500 chassis switch, a modular/chassis-based switch in D-Link's enterprise line. It exposes L2 switching feature configuration such as VLANs, port settings, and switching table state for a multi-slot chassis platform. For monitoring it is used to track the software configuration and operational status of switching features across chassis line cards/ports, and in a chassis context this is typically paired with hardware status monitoring of individual modules, power supplies, and fans. It is a proprietary enterprise MIB layered on standard MIB-II interface objects and IEEE 802.1Q/802.1D concepts, adapted for a chassis architecture with multiple slots/modules. It is deployed on D-Link DES-6500 modular chassis switches used as core or distribution switches in larger enterprise network environments. Engineers can download the DES6500-SWL2MGMT-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in DES6500-SWL2MGMT-MIB. 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

  • D-Link DES-6500 modular chassis switch

Monitoring Examples

An operator managing a DES-6500 chassis would poll per-slot/per-port L2 configuration objects to confirm VLAN and switching settings are consistent across installed line cards, and check port state objects to identify a specific module or port that has gone down. Because it's a chassis platform, this L2 MIB would typically be polled alongside chassis hardware objects (module presence, power supply, and fan status) to build a complete health picture of the switch. A mismatch between expected and actual VLAN membership on a newly inserted line card would be a typical anomaly this MIB helps surface.

What Can Be Monitored

  • VLAN configuration across chassis line cards
  • per-port L2 switching status
  • chassis module/port state
  • switching table configuration
