Description: HP ICF SNMP MIB for XRRP (XL Router Redundancy Protocol), an HP ProCurve 5300xl series proprietary virtual router redundancy protocol.

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-XRRP?

HP-ICF-XRRP defines Hewlett-Packard's proprietary XRRP (XL Router Redundancy Protocol), a VRRP-like first-hop redundancy protocol specific to the HP ProCurve 5300xl switch series. It exposes configuration for virtual router groups and status showing each router's current redundancy role, similar in structure to standard VRRP objects. Its monitoring value is protocol/software status — tracking whether a 5300xl switch is acting as the active or standby router for a redundancy group, and catching unplanned role transitions that indicate a failure. Despite its similarity to VRRP, it is an independent HP proprietary protocol rather than a formal extension of the standard VRRP MIB. It is deployed specifically on legacy HP ProCurve 5300xl switches used for gateway redundancy before HP moved to standard VRRP support on newer platforms. Engineers can download the HP-ICF-XRRP file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in HP-ICF-XRRP. 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 5300xl series switch

Monitoring Examples

No concrete object names were present in the sampled source beyond the module description, so specifics cannot be confirmed here. In practice an administrator would poll this module's per-group role/state objects to confirm which 5300xl switch currently holds the active router role for a redundancy group, and would be alerted to an unexpected switch to the standby unit.

What Can Be Monitored

XRRP router role (active/standby)
XRRP group configuration
virtual router status

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using hpicfXrrpStatsPktsRcvd OID:

Select an HP ProCurve 5300xl series switch (proprietary XRRP redundancy) 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 hpicfXrrpStatsPktsRcvd into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, then select it and click OK. This value contains the number of XRRP packets received by the router. 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.

NTF hpicfXrrpTrapStateChange	1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.14.11.5.1.18.1.0.1			This trap indicates that a XRRP router has changed state. The trap contains the domain number, the router coordinator number and state value for the change. This trap is being controlled by the state of 'hpicfXrrpTrapCntl' object.
NTF hpicfXrrpTrapAuthFailure	1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.14.11.5.1.18.1.0.2			This trap indicates that the authentication error occurred on a XRRP VLAN. The trap contains the domain number, this router number, instance id (owner router number and VLAN ID) that detected the error and type of the authentication error. This trap is being controlled by the state of 'hpicfXrrpTrapCntl' object.
