Description: Declares Ericsson router agent capabilities for the IETF Bridge MIB (RFC 4188).

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 ERICSSON-ROUTER-IETF-BRIDGE-CAP?

This AGENT-CAPABILITIES module declares which objects of the standard IETF BRIDGE-MIB (RFC 4188) are implemented on Ericsson SEOS-based router/switch platforms, rather than defining new bridging objects itself. It is conformance metadata only, scoping support for standard transparent bridging/STP objects (e.g., forwarding database, port state) per Ericsson product family and software release. Indirectly it relates to Layer 2 bridging/spanning-tree status monitoring by defining which BRIDGE-MIB objects are actually exposed on a given platform, though it provides no runtime data of its own. It explicitly depends on the IETF BRIDGE-MIB (RFC 4188) for the objects it scopes conformance against. It is used by NMS/MIB tooling to determine bridging/STP feature support on Ericsson SmartEdge (SE), SM, and SSR router families, referencing the ERICSSON-ROUTER-IETF-BRIDGE-CAP MIB to confirm exactly which BRIDGE-MIB objects are supported.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in ERICSSON-ROUTER-IETF-BRIDGE-CAP. 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

  • Ericsson SmartEdge (SE) routers
  • Ericsson SM Metro Ethernet platforms
  • Ericsson Smart Service Router (SSR) family

Monitoring Examples

As an AGENT-CAPABILITIES module, it has no runtime pollable objects; it documents which objects of the standard BRIDGE-MIB (e.g., bridge port state, spanning tree status) are implemented on a given Ericsson SEOS release rather than exposing live bridging data itself.

RFC description

Defines bridge capabilities for Ericsson router platforms. Provides managed objects describing bridge forwarding capabilities, VLAN support, and bridging feature availability on Ericsson routing equipment.
