What Is Dell-rndMng?

Dell-rndMng is the core private management MIB for Dell's RND (formerly Radlan) network device platform, providing general system management, control-action, and performance objects shared across the Dell RND MIB family. It exposes configuration data (system ID, firmware/config file actions, SNMP version support) alongside genuine performance metrics such as CPU utilization. It is explicitly useful for monitoring hardware/software status: rlCpuUtilDuringLastSecond, rlCpuUtilDuringLastMinute, and rlCpuUtilDuringLast5Minutes give real-time and trending CPU load, while rlRebootDelay and rndAction expose reboot/maintenance controls relevant to device uptime and management operations. It underpins other Dell RND-family MIBs (such as Dell-UDP and Dell-TRACEROUTE-MIB) as the common management base and follows standard SNMPv2 SMI conventions. It is typically deployed on Dell PowerConnect/Networking switches as the foundational management module polled alongside more specific feature MIBs. Engineers can download the Dell-rndMng file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in Dell-rndMng. 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.

What Can Be Monitored

  • CPU utilization (1 sec/1 min/5 min)
  • reboot/management actions
  • reboot delay
  • SNMP version support
  • group management polling
  • firmware/config file actions

Supported Devices

  • Dell Networking / PowerConnect switches
  • Dell RND (Radlan)-based network devices

Monitoring Examples

An admin would poll rlCpuUtilDuringLastSecond, rlCpuUtilDuringLastMinute, and rlCpuUtilDuringLast5Minutes to track CPU load trends and detect a sustained spike indicating overload or a runaway process. rndSysId and rndFileName support identifying the device and managing firmware/configuration file operations via rndAction. rlGroupMngQuery and rlGroupMngQueryPeriod configure periodic group-management polling, useful for stack/cluster health checks across multiple RND-based switches.

OIDs
OID symbolicOID numericTypeAccessDescription
rndMng1.3.6.1.4.1.89.1The private MIB module definition for RND general management MIB.
INT rndSysId1.3.6.1.4.1.89.1.1INTEGERread-onlyIdentification of an RND device. The device type for each integer clarifies the sysObjectID in MIB - II.
INT rndAction1.3.6.1.4.1.89.1.2INTEGERread-writeThis variable enables the operator to perform one of the specified actions on the tables maintained by the network device. Send actions require support of proprietery File exchange protocol.
OCT rndFileName1.3.6.1.4.1.89.1.3OCTET STRINGread-writeThe name of the file used internally by RND for transferring tables maintained by network devices, using a prorietary File exchange protocol.
OCT rlSnmpVersionSupported1.3.6.1.4.1.89.1.4OCTET STRINGread-onlyIndicates the snmp versions that are supported by this device.
INT rlSnmpMibVersion1.3.6.1.4.1.89.1.5INTEGERread-onlyIndicates the snmp support version that is supported by this device.
T/F rlCpuUtilEnable1.3.6.1.4.1.89.1.6TruthValueread-writeEnables measurement of the device CPU utilization. In order to get real values for rlCpuUtilDuringLastSecond, rlCpuUtilDuringLastMinute and rlCpuUtilDuringLast5Minutes, the value of this object must be true.
INT rlCpuUtilDuringLastSecond1.3.6.1.4.1.89.1.7INTEGERread-onlyPercentage of the device CPU utilization during last second. The value 101 is a dummy value, indicating that the CPU utilization was not measured (since measurement is disabled or was disabled during last second).
INT rlCpuUtilDuringLastMinute1.3.6.1.4.1.89.1.8INTEGERread-onlyPercentage of the device CPU utilization during last minute. The value 101 is a dummy value, indicating that the CPU utilization was not measured (since measurement is disabled or was disabled during last minute).
INT rlCpuUtilDuringLast5Minutes1.3.6.1.4.1.89.1.9INTEGERread-onlyPercentage of the device CPU utilization during the last 5 minutes. The value 101 is a dummy value, indicating that the CPU utilization was not measured (since measurement is disabled or was disabled during last 5 minutes).
TIK rlRebootDelay1.3.6.1.4.1.89.1.10TimeTicksread-writeSetting the variable will cause the device to reboot rlRebootDelay timeticks from the moment this variable was set. If not set, the variable will return a value of 4294967295. If set to 4294967295, reboot action is cancelled. The maximum delay is set by the host parameter: reboot_delay_max
rlGroupManagement1.3.6.1.4.1.89.1.11
INT rlGroupMngQuery1.3.6.1.4.1.89.1.11.1INTEGERread-writeSetting value query will cause the device to query for UPNP devices on the network. The device will always return value idle for GET.
INT rlGroupMngQueryPeriod1.3.6.1.4.1.89.1.11.2INTEGERread-writeSets desired interval between queries for UPNP devices on the network. Setting 0 will result in no such query. Note that the actual query interval might be less than the set value if another application running in the device requested a shorter interval. Likewise setting 0 will not necessarily stop periodic queries if another application is still interested in periodic polling.
TIK rlGroupMngLastUpdate1.3.6.1.4.1.89.1.11.3TimeTicksread-onlyThe last time rlGroupMng MIB was updated.
rlGroupMngDevicesTable1.3.6.1.4.1.89.1.11.4not-accessibleThe table showing the discovered devices.

STR rlScheduledReloadPendingDate1.3.6.1.4.1.89.1.16DisplayStringread-onlyDisplays the most recently requested scheduled-reload due date in 'inhhhmmathhmmssddMMYYYYw' format. where 'w' stands for weekDay (1-7). if there is no pending/scheduled reload request, string will be empty
