Description: Hirschmann HiOS (HM2) Network Address Translation (NAT) MIB for configuring NAT rules and session tables.

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 HM2-NAT-MIB?

HM2-NAT-MIB is a Hirschmann HiOS (HM2) MIB for configuring Network Address Translation, covering destination NAT (DNAT), source NAT (SNAT/masquerade), double NAT, and 1:1 NAT rule sets, along with per-rule-type maximum rule counts and rule tables. It exposes rule configuration (indexed rule entries) plus operational bookkeeping objects such as rule counts, pending-action tracking, and a statistics-reset control. Monitoring with this MIB centers on verifying NAT rule provisioning and rule-count utilization — checking how many DNAT rules are configured against the maximum allowed, and whether pending rule changes have been committed — which is a software/configuration-state concern rather than physical hardware monitoring. It relies on the underlying interface/IP addressing model of the device for the addresses and interfaces referenced by NAT rules. It is deployed on Hirschmann industrial switches/routers providing NAT-based network segmentation in automation environments. Engineers can download the HM2-NAT-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in HM2-NAT-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

  • Hirschmann industrial Ethernet switches/routers (HiOS)

Monitoring Examples

An administrator can poll hm2DnatRuleCount against hm2DnatMaxRules to check how close the device is to its DNAT rule capacity, and review hm2DnatRuleTable (via hm2DnatRuleIndex) to audit individual rule definitions. hm2DnatRulePendingActions indicates whether recently configured rules are still awaiting commit via hm2DnatCommitPendingActions, and hm2NatResetStatistics provides a way to clear counters before a fresh troubleshooting cycle; hm2NatNotifications would alert on NAT-related fault conditions.

What Can Be Monitored

  • DNAT/SNAT/double-NAT rule counts vs maximum
  • individual NAT rule definitions
  • pending NAT rule changes awaiting commit
  • NAT statistics reset state
  • NAT fault notifications

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using hm2DnatStatsTotalPck OID:

Select a Hirschmann HiOS industrial switch/router (DNAT/SNAT/1:1 NAT) as the target host to create a monitor — the SNMP service should be up and running on it. Click New Monitor, then check SNMP Custom on the Favorites tab, click Next, and confirm the host. On the next page, click Select... to open the built-in SNMP MIB Browser and type hm2DnatStatsTotalPck into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, then select it and click OK. It reports the total number of packets processed by the DNAT firewall. On the monitor's Main parameters page you can set the target's SNMP port (default 161), credentials, polling interval, and other settings — see the SNMP Monitor help for details. On the State conditions and Alerting tabs, configure when the monitor should change state and trigger an alert; since this is a Counter64-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the counter increases sharply between polls relative to its normal baseline, since an unexpected spike often reflects a real change in traffic or activity. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
