Description: Broadcom FastPath MIB for DNS resolver configuration including server addresses and domain search list on FastPath 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 FASTPATH-DNS-RESOLVER-CONTROL-MIB?

FASTPATH-DNS-RESOLVER-CONTROL-MIB is a Broadcom enterprise MIB for the FastPath switch/router software platform, defining DNS client (resolver) control configuration. It covers configuration data such as DNS server addresses and the domain search list used by the device's DNS resolver, rather than hardware sensors or traffic counters. Its monitoring relevance is mainly configuration-state verification: an administrator can confirm which DNS servers and search domains are currently configured on the device, helping diagnose name-resolution failures tied to stale or incorrect DNS settings affecting management or logging functions. As a Broadcom FastPath private MIB it is one of a family of FastPath control MIBs and is typically used alongside other FastPath system and interface MIBs on the same platform. It is deployed on Broadcom FastPath-based managed switches and routers where DNS client functionality is used for hostname resolution in management operations like syslog, NTP, or RADIUS lookups. Engineers can download the FASTPATH-DNS-RESOLVER-CONTROL-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in FASTPATH-DNS-RESOLVER-CONTROL-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

Broadcom FastPath-based switch
Broadcom FastPath-based router

Monitoring Examples

No sample objects were provided for this module; typically an administrator would poll resolver configuration objects for the configured DNS server address list and default domain/search-list entries to confirm the device's resolver settings match the intended DNS servers, revealing a misconfiguration if lookups for management services are failing.
