Description: HP ICF SNMP MIB for per-slot traffic statistics and performance counters on modular HP ProCurve chassis 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-SLOT-STATS-MIB?
HP-ICF-SLOT-STATS-MIB is an HP proprietary SNMP module providing per-slot traffic statistics and performance counters for modular HP ProCurve chassis switches, part of the HP Integrated Communication Facility product line. It exposes performance/counter data broken out by physical chassis slot, such as packet and byte counts for line cards installed in a modular switch chassis. This is directly relevant to hardware status monitoring, since per-slot statistics let an administrator identify a failing or overloaded module by comparing traffic counters and error rates across slots in the same chassis. It is a self-contained HP extension that complements the standard IF-MIB's interface counters by adding a chassis-slot dimension of aggregation. It is typically deployed on modular, multi-slot ProCurve chassis switches used as core or distribution switches in enterprise networks. Engineers can download the HP-ICF-SLOT-STATS-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in HP-ICF-SLOT-STATS-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 modular chassis switch
Monitoring Examples
No specific sample objects were provided in the source excerpt, but by the MIB's stated purpose it would include a slot statistics table indexed by chassis slot number, holding counters for received/transmitted packets, bytes, and errors aggregated across all interfaces on that module. An administrator would poll this table across all populated slots to spot one slot generating a disproportionate error count, which could indicate a failing line card. Because it is a statistics-only module, it does not include configuration or trap objects.
What Can Be Monitored
- per-slot packet/byte counters
- per-slot error counters
- module traffic load comparison
