Description: Manages IPv4 interface address assignments and secondary address configuration on H3C network 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 HH3C-IP-ADDRESS-MIB?
HH3C-IP-ADDRESS-MIB is an H3C enterprise MIB that manages and tracks IPv4 interface address assignments, including primary and secondary addresses, on H3C network devices. It centers on configuration data and, notably, change notifications that fire when an interface's IP address is modified. As a monitoring tool it is used mainly for configuration-drift and fault detection: an unexpected address change on a router or switch interface can indicate misconfiguration, a scripting error, or unauthorized administrative action rather than a hardware fault. It builds on the standard IF-MIB interface index (ifIndex) to identify which interface changed. It is typically deployed across H3C routers and switches where administrators want SNMP trap-based alerting on IP address changes for change-control and security auditing. Network engineers evaluating or troubleshooting this functionality can download the HH3C-IP-ADDRESS-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in HH3C-IP-ADDRESS-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
- H3C router
- H3C switch
Monitoring Examples
An admin would subscribe to the hh3cIpAddrNotify trap, which carries hh3cIpAddrNotifyIfIndex, hh3cIpAddrOldIpAddress, and hh3cIpAddrNewIpAddress to identify exactly which interface changed address and what the old and new values were. Seeing this trap fire outside of a scheduled maintenance window would reveal an unplanned address change, prompting investigation into DHCP reassignment or unauthorized configuration edits. The hh3cIpAddrNotifyObjectsPrefix and related scalar objects supply supporting prefix/mask context for the notification.
What Can Be Monitored
- interface IP address changes
- old vs new address values
- affected interface index
- address change notifications
