Description: HP ICF SNMP MIB for RIPng (IPv6 Routing Information Protocol) configuration on HP ProCurve Layer 3 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-RIPNG-MIB?

HP-ICF-RIPNG-MIB is an HP proprietary MIB providing management objects for the RIPng (RIP for IPv6) routing protocol on HP ProCurve Layer 3 switches. It exposes configuration and operational data related to RIPng-enabled interfaces, such as which interfaces run the protocol and associated timers/metrics. Its monitoring value centers on routing protocol/software status: confirming RIPng is enabled and functioning correctly on the expected interfaces, which is a software service-status check rather than a hardware health check. It is closely dependent on the IETF RIPng protocol standard (RFC 2080) and likely on the base IF-MIB for interface indexing. It is typically deployed in smaller IPv6 enterprise or campus networks using HP ProCurve Layer 3 switches where RIPng is chosen as a simple interior routing protocol. Engineers can download the HP-ICF-RIPNG-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

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

HP ProCurve Layer 3 switch/router

Monitoring Examples

No sample_objects were given for this MIB, so specific object names cannot be confirmed, but a plausible implementation includes a per-interface RIPng enable/status table. An administrator would poll such a table to confirm RIPng is active on the intended routed interfaces and check for unexpected route counts or interface state changes indicating a routing adjacency problem.

What Can Be Monitored

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using hpicfRipngGlobalRouteChanges OID:

Select an HP ProCurve Layer 3 switch/router (RIPng/IPv6) 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 hpicfRipngGlobalRouteChanges into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, then select it and click OK. The number of changes to the RIPng routing table, excluding the age refresh. 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 Counter32-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.
