Description: D-Link 3100 bridge security MIB providing objects for port security, MAC-based access control, and L2 security features.

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 DLINK-3100-BRIDGE-SECURITY?

DLINK-3100-BRIDGE-SECURITY is a D-Link private MIB for the 3100 series switches that provides Layer 2 security features: DHCP Snooping, Dynamic ARP Inspection, and IP Source Guard. It exposes configuration and status objects controlling whether these anti-spoofing features are enabled, their static binding tables, and related counters. Its monitoring value is focused on the software/security status of the switch: whether DHCP snooping is actively enforcing trusted/untrusted port rules, how many snooping-learned entries currently exist, and whether option-82 insertion is configured correctly, which are key indicators of the device's security posture rather than physical hardware health. It builds on standard DHCP and ARP concepts and is meant to be used alongside D-Link's other 3100 bridge MIBs (e.g., VLAN and STP objects) for a complete Layer 2 security picture. It is typically deployed in access-layer switches in enterprise networks where DHCP spoofing and ARP poisoning protection are required, making DLINK-3100-BRIDGE-SECURITY SNMP monitoring a key part of Layer 2 security posture verification.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in DLINK-3100-BRIDGE-SECURITY. 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 3100 series managed switch

Monitoring Examples

An administrator would poll rlIpDhcpSnoopEnable and rlIpDhcpSnoopCurrentEntiresNumber to confirm DHCP snooping is active and see how many client bindings are currently tracked, flagging an unexpectedly low count as a possible misconfiguration or an unexpectedly high count as a potential attack. rlIpDhcpSnoopStaticTable (rlIpDhcpSnoopStaticEntry, rlIpDhcpSnoopStaticVLANTag) shows manually configured static DHCP snooping bindings for devices with fixed IPs. rlIpDhcpSnoopVerifyMacAddress and rlIpDhcpOpt82InsertionEnable reveal whether MAC verification and DHCP option-82 insertion are enabled, both important anti-spoofing controls, and rlIpArpInspect/rlIpSourceGuard indicate whether the complementary ARP inspection and IP source guard features are active.

What Can Be Monitored

  • DHCP snooping enable state
  • current DHCP snooping binding count
  • static DHCP snooping bindings
  • option-82 insertion/verification settings
  • ARP inspection and IP source guard status

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using rlIpSourceGuardPermittedRuleCounterNumOfStaticRules OID:

Select a D-Link 3100 series switch (DES/DGS-3100), DHCP snooping/ARP inspection/IP source guard as the target host to create a monitor — the SNMP service should be up and running on it. Click New Monitor, then check SNMP Custom on the Favorites tab, click Next, and confirm the host. On the next page, click Select... to open the built-in SNMP MIB Browser and type rlIpSourceGuardPermittedRuleCounterNumOfStaticRules into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, selecting the specific row/instance you want to monitor since this is a table column, then select it and click OK. It reports the number of static rules added by IP Source Guard for the permitted Hosts. On the monitor's Main parameters page you can set the target's SNMP port (default 161), credentials, polling interval, and other settings — see the SNMP Monitor help for details. On the State conditions and Alerting tabs, configure when the monitor should change state and trigger an alert; since this is a Counter32-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the counter increases sharply between polls relative to its normal baseline, since an unexpected spike often reflects a real change in traffic or activity. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
