Description: Brocade/Foundry proprietary MIB for SNMP trap receiver configuration supporting both IPv4 and IPv6 trap managers.

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-TRAP-MIB?

FDRY-TRAP-MIB is a Brocade/Foundry proprietary MIB for configuring where and how a switch or router sends its SNMP trap notifications, unifying what were previously separate IPv4 and IPv6 trap-receiver configuration tables into a single combined table. It exposes objects for defining trap receiver/manager entries — the destination addresses (IPv4 or IPv6) and related parameters that control which management stations receive the device's traps. Its relevance to hardware/software status monitoring is indirect but important: it is the configuration layer that determines whether fault and event notifications (from other Brocade/Foundry MIBs covering hardware, environment, and protocol events) actually reach a monitoring station, so a misconfigured or missing entry here means real device problems could go unreported. It depends on and complements the device's other Brocade/Foundry fault and status MIBs, which generate the actual trap content this module's receivers are configured to receive. It is deployed on Brocade/Foundry switches and routers wherever centralized trap-based fault monitoring is used, typically after an FDRY-TRAP-MIB download to compile the module into the network management station receiving those traps.

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

Monitoring Examples

An operator would poll the fdryTrapReceiver table to verify that the expected management station addresses (IPv4 and/or IPv6) are correctly configured as trap destinations, which is essential to confirm before relying on trap-based alerting for hardware or protocol faults elsewhere on the device. A missing or incorrect entry in fdryTrapReceiver would explain why expected fault notifications from the device are not reaching the network management system, even though the underlying fault condition is real.

fdryTrapReceiver	1.3.6.1.4.1.1991.1.1.10.1.1
fdryTrapReceiverTable	1.3.6.1.4.1.1991.1.1.10.1.1.1		not-accessible	Trap Receiver table.
fdryTrapReceiverEntry	1.3.6.1.4.1.1991.1.1.10.1.1.1.1		not-accessible	An entry in the Trap Receiver 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 fdryTrapReceiverIndex	1.3.6.1.4.1.1991.1.1.10.1.1.1.1.1	Unsigned32	not-accessible	The index to the Trap Receiver Table.
IPt fdryTrapReceiverAddrType	1.3.6.1.4.1.1991.1.1.10.1.1.1.1.2	InetAddressType	read-create	Trap Receiver IP address Type. Supported address types are ipv4(1) and ipv6(2)
IP fdryTrapReceiverAddr	1.3.6.1.4.1.1991.1.1.10.1.1.1.1.3	InetAddress	read-create	Trap Receiver IP address.
OCT fdryTrapReceiverCommunityOrSecurityName	1.3.6.1.4.1.1991.1.1.10.1.1.1.1.4	OCTET STRING	read-create	Community string to use. In case of USM (SNMPv3) security model, this object is used to provide the security name.
I32 fdryTrapReceiverUDPPort	1.3.6.1.4.1.1991.1.1.10.1.1.1.1.5	Integer32	read-create	UDP port number of the trap receiver.
SEC fdryTrapReceiverSecurityModel	1.3.6.1.4.1.1991.1.1.10.1.1.1.1.6	SecurityModel	read-create	Version of trap format to be used.
SEC fdryTrapReceiverSecurityLevel	1.3.6.1.4.1.1991.1.1.10.1.1.1.1.7	SecurityLevel	read-create	Used for USM (SNMPv3) security model to specify the level of security. The security name is provided by fdryTrapReceiverCommunityOrSecurityName.
ROW fdryTrapReceiverRowStatus	1.3.6.1.4.1.1991.1.1.10.1.1.1.1.8	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.
