Description: Enterasys Networks MIB for managing configuration file transfer and storage operations on Enterasys devices.

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 ENTERASYS-CONFIGURATION-MANAGEMENT-MIB?

ENTERASYS-CONFIGURATION-MANAGEMENT-MIB is a proprietary Enterasys Networks MIB for managing device configuration and firmware image file transfer, storage, and change operations. It exposes objects describing the current image and configuration file URLs, persistent storage status and checksum, and a table tracking pending or completed configuration-change operations. Its monitoring value centers on software/configuration state and change-management tracking: an administrator can verify which firmware image and configuration file are currently active, confirm persistent storage integrity via a checksum, and monitor whether an in-progress configuration change has completed successfully, which is effectively a software-version and change-job status check. It is a vendor-specific management MIB with no stated dependency on a standard IETF configuration MIB. It is deployed on Enterasys/Extreme Networks switches and routers where configuration/firmware updates are pushed and tracked via SNMP-based automation tools. Engineers can download the ENTERASYS-CONFIGURATION-MANAGEMENT-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in ENTERASYS-CONFIGURATION-MANAGEMENT-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

  • Enterasys/Extreme Networks switch or router

Monitoring Examples

An administrator would poll etsysConfigMgmtCurrentImageURL and etsysConfigMgmtCurrentConfigURL to confirm which firmware and config files are currently loaded, and check etsysConfigMgmtPersistentStorageStatus with etsysConfigMgmtPersistentStorageCkSum to detect storage corruption after an unexpected power event. During a scripted configuration push, etsysConfigMgmtChangeTable/etsysConfigMgmtChangeEntry would be watched via etsysConfigMgmtChangeCurrent and etsysConfigMgmtChangeCompleted to confirm the change job finished rather than stalling, similar to monitoring a job/queue status. etsysConfigMgmtChangeLimit indicates how many concurrent change operations the device supports.

What Can Be Monitored

  • current firmware image location
  • current configuration file location
  • persistent storage status/checksum
  • configuration change job completion status
  • max concurrent configuration changes

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using etsysConfigMgmtChangeCompleted OID:

Select an Enterasys Networks switch (legacy, later Extreme Networks)/router (firmware/config file management) 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 etsysConfigMgmtChangeCompleted into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, then select it and click OK. The number of configuration change requests that have completed successfully or otherwise. 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.
