Description: HP ICF SNMP MIB for IPv6 Protocol Independent Multicast (PIMv6) configuration and multicast routing on HP ProCurve switches.

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-PIM6?

HP-ICF-PIM6 contains Hewlett-Packard's proprietary extensions to the standard PIM MIB (RFC 5060), adding vendor-specific management objects for IPv6 Protocol Independent Multicast on HP ProCurve Layer 3 switches. It provides configuration data for multicast routing (RP mappings, interface PIM settings) and state information about multicast group/source trees rather than hardware telemetry. Its main monitoring role is software/protocol status — verifying PIMv6 neighbor relationships and multicast routing state are healthy so IPv6 multicast traffic (e.g., video distribution) is delivered correctly. It explicitly depends on and extends the standard PIM MIB (RFC 5060), reusing its object model for its HP-specific additions. It is deployed on HP Layer 3 switches/routers that carry IPv6 multicast traffic in enterprise or service-provider networks, where administrators can open the HP-ICF-PIM6 MIB Browser view to inspect these objects directly.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in HP-ICF-PIM6. 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 Layer 3 switch/router

Monitoring Examples

The sample objects available were limited to the module's IMPORTS clause, so no concrete runtime object names can be cited from this source. Combined with the base PIM MIB, such extensions would typically be polled alongside PIMv6 neighbor and rendezvous-point tables to confirm multicast routing adjacencies remain established and multicast traffic is not being silently dropped.

What Can Be Monitored

  • PIMv6 neighbor status
  • multicast RP configuration
  • PIMv6 interface configuration
