Description: Declares Ericsson router agent capabilities for the IETF Interfaces MIB (RFC 2863).

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-IF-CAP?

ERICSSON-ROUTER-IETF-IF-CAP is an AGENT-CAPABILITIES module declaring how Ericsson's router platforms (the SmartEdge/SE, SM, and SSR product families running Ericsson SEOS) implement the standard IETF Interfaces MIB (RFC 2863) and the IF-INVERTED-STACK-MIB (RFC 2864). It does not define new managed objects; instead it documents which parts of the standard interface MIBs are supported, with what variations, on a given Ericsson SEOS release. As a pure conformance/capabilities module it has no runtime monitoring objects of its own and plays no direct role in reporting uptime, temperature, or load; its purpose is purely descriptive of standards compliance. It is entirely dependent on, and only meaningful in relation to, the IETF IF-MIB and IF-INVERTED-STACK-MIB it describes conformance against. It is relevant when managing Ericsson SmartEdge (SE), SM, or SSR router platforms to understand exactly which standard interface MIB features are implemented in a given SEOS release. Engineers can download the ERICSSON-ROUTER-IETF-IF-CAP file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in ERICSSON-ROUTER-IETF-IF-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) router
  • Ericsson SM Metro Ethernet platform
  • Ericsson Smart Service Router (SSR)

Monitoring Examples

This is an AGENT-CAPABILITIES conformance module with no runtime data objects (sample_objects is empty), so there is no monitoring scenario to describe; it is used by NMS tooling to determine which IF-MIB and IF-INVERTED-STACK-MIB features are actually supported before attempting to poll or configure them on a given Ericsson SEOS release.
