Description: A Foundry/Brocade FastIron MIB covering client-side configuration and synchronization status for Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP).

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 FDRY-SNTP-MIB?

FDRY-SNTP-MIB is a Brocade/Foundry proprietary MIB for FastIron switches covering Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) client configuration, combining IPv4 and IPv6 SNTP server settings into a single table per its module description; no object names were captured for grounding in the source. Such SNTP MIBs typically expose configuration data (configured time server addresses, polling interval) and synchronization status. In monitoring terms it would be used to confirm the software/time-sync status of the device, i.e. whether the switch's clock is successfully synchronized to a configured time source, which matters for accurate log timestamps and certificate validation. It has an implicit dependency on the underlying SNTP/NTP protocol standard (RFC 4330 and related). It is deployed on Brocade/Foundry FastIron switches needing an accurate system clock, typically for syslog correlation and security/certificate operations, often obtained via an FDRY-SNTP-MIB download for loading into a network management system.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in FDRY-SNTP-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

Brocade/Foundry FastIron Ethernet switch

Monitoring Examples

No object or table names were available in the source for this module, so a concrete polling scenario cannot be grounded in real identifiers. Based on the module description, it would likely expose a combined IPv4/IPv6 SNTP server configuration table and a synchronization status object, but this cannot be confirmed from the available data.

fdrySntpServer	1.3.6.1.4.1.1991.1.1.7.1.1
fdrySntpServerTable	1.3.6.1.4.1.1991.1.1.7.1.1.1		not-accessible	Simple Network Time Protocol(SNTP) server table. This table is not supported in NI devices from R5.3
fdrySntpServerEntry	1.3.6.1.4.1.1991.1.1.7.1.1.1.1		not-accessible	An entry in the SNTP server table. This table uses running index as the Index to the table. Reasons to go for running index Scheme than IP addresses: 1. The table will be Virtual Routing and Forwarding(VRF) independent that multiple VRFs could share the same address type and address. 2. Index with address type and address could be potentially 17 unsigned integer, parsing and finding next index takes CPU time. The PDU gets to be huge too! 3. IP address is just another attribute, they are supposed to be list of servers.
U32 fdrySntpServerIndex	1.3.6.1.4.1.1991.1.1.7.1.1.1.1.1	Unsigned32	not-accessible	The index to the SNTP server Table. Maximum 3 Sntp servers are supported.
IPt fdrySntpServerAddrType	1.3.6.1.4.1.1991.1.1.7.1.1.1.1.2	InetAddressType	read-create	SNTP server IP address Type. Supported address types are ipv4(1) and ipv6(2)
IP fdrySntpServerAddr	1.3.6.1.4.1.1991.1.1.7.1.1.1.1.3	InetAddress	read-create	SNTP server IP address.

ROW fdrySntpServerRowStatus	1.3.6.1.4.1.1991.1.1.7.1.1.1.1.5	RowStatus	read-create	This variable is used to create, modify, or delete a row in this table. When a row in this table is in active(1) state, no objects in that row can be modified except this object.
