FOUNDRY-SN-ROOT-MIB

Description: Root MIB for Foundry Networks (now Brocade/Ruckus) LAN switch-routers, defining top-level OIDs for products, chassis, agents, and trap registrations.

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.

FOUNDRY-SN-ROOT-MIB is the enterprise root MIB for Foundry Networks LAN switch-router products, a company later acquired by Brocade and now part of Ruckus/CommScope. It defines the top-level OID registration tree (products, vendors, router, registration, snTraps) under which Foundry's switch, router, and chassis MIB modules attach their objects and trap definitions. Anyone who needs to download FOUNDRY-SN-ROOT-MIB for a legacy FastIron or NetIron deployment should also obtain the specific chassis, power-supply, or fan MIB modules that register beneath this root, since it alone defines no data objects. As a pure registration module it exposes no runtime counters or status objects itself, so it plays no direct role in monitoring hardware or software state beyond anchoring the trap OID branch (snTraps) that other modules use to define fault notifications. It has an implicit dependency relationship with the full Foundry/Brocade SN MIB suite (e.g. chassis, power supply, and fan MIBs) that register underneath it. It is typically present in any management station's MIB set when polling legacy Foundry or Brocade FastIron/NetIron switch-routers.

This module contains only registration and root nodes (products, vendors, router, registration, snTraps, snCes2000Family) and defines no scalars or tables of its own, so there is no direct monitoring scenario. Its practical role is to provide the snTraps subtree that downstream Foundry MIBs (such as chassis or power-supply MIBs) use as the parent OID for their SNMP notifications, and the snCes2000Family branch identifies a specific chassis product line by sysObjectID.
