Dell-IP

Description: Manages IPv4 routing configuration and interface addressing on Dell network switches.

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.

Dell-IP, as implemented in this source file, is not a functional monitoring MIB but a minimal compatibility stub whose sole purpose is OID registration: it defines the ipSpec, rlOspf, and rlIpRoutingProtPreference OBJECT-IDENTITY root nodes, under the Dell/Radlan rnd private-enterprise arc, that other Dell modules — Dell-IpRouter, Dell-IPv6, and Dell-Redistribute — anchor their actual IPv4/IPv6 routing and OSPF objects to. It contains no OBJECT-TYPE tables, counters, or configuration objects of its own; the IPv4 routing configuration and interface addressing implied by the module's name actually live in those dependent modules, not here. Consequently there is nothing to poll directly from Dell-IP itself — its value is purely structural, letting a MIB browser resolve OIDs under ipSpec/rlOspf cleanly before the dependent routing MIBs are loaded. It is deployed alongside the fuller Dell-IpRouter, Dell-IPv6, and Dell-Redistribute modules on Dell Networking switches running Dell/Radlan-based firmware, and administrators typically load this file together with those modules via a Dell-IP MIB Browser lookup rather than using it standalone.

An operator loading Dell-IpRouter into a MIB browser first resolves Dell-IP so that OIDs under ipSpec and rlOspf compile without unknown-parent errors; if Dell-IP is missing, dependent modules like Dell-Redistribute would fail to load entirely rather than expose any counter directly.
