Description: HP ICF SNMP MIB for firmware and software image download management via TFTP or other protocols on HP ProCurve 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 HP-ICF-DOWNLOAD?

HP-ICF-DOWNLOAD is HP's Integrated Communication Facility (ICF) MIB for managing firmware/software image downloads via TFTP or other protocols on HP ProCurve network devices, within the software-lifecycle-management area. It exposes configuration and operational data for initiating and tracking a download operation, such as the source server, file identification, transfer protocol, and the resulting status of the download attempt. This MIB is directly useful for software status monitoring: it lets an administrator confirm a firmware upgrade job has been triggered correctly and track whether the download completed successfully or failed, which is essential for verifying a device is running the intended software version after a maintenance operation. It is part of the broader HP ICF MIB family (alongside modules like HP-ICF-CHASSIS and HP-ICF-BOARD) and builds on standard SNMP/TFTP conventions for the actual transfer mechanism. Typical deployment is HP ProCurve switches undergoing remote firmware upgrades initiated and tracked by an NMS or upgrade script. Network engineers evaluating or troubleshooting this functionality can download the HP-ICF-DOWNLOAD file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in HP-ICF-DOWNLOAD. 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

  • HP ProCurve switches
  • HP ICF-based network devices

Monitoring Examples

No specific object or table names were included in the available source excerpt, so exact objects cannot be confirmed; based on the module description, this MIB models the download server address/filename, the transfer protocol selection, a trigger to start the download, and a resulting status object indicating in-progress, success, or failure. An administrator pushing a firmware update to a fleet of ProCurve switches would poll the download status object after triggering the transfer to confirm each unit completed the download successfully before proceeding to reboot into the new image.

What Can Be Monitored

  • firmware/software download status (in-progress/success/failure)
  • download server address and file identification
  • transfer protocol configuration
  • download operation trigger state
