Description: HP ServerNet (Foundry-heritage) SNMP MIB for VRRP virtual router management and failover state on HP SN routing 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-SN-IP-VRRP-MIB?

HP-SN-IP-VRRP-MIB is an HP-branded SNMP module inherited from the Foundry Networks (SN, ServerNet) product lineage, defining objects for VRRP (Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol) management and failover state on HP ServerNet-heritage routing switches. It exposes VRRP group operating mode (including an extended mode variant), per-interface VRRP limits (maximum VRIDs per interface and per system), statistic-clearing controls, and per-interface/per-virtual-router tables tracking VRRP configuration and state, with dedicated traps for interface state changes. As a monitoring MIB its core purpose is high-availability/failover status: snVrrpIfStateChangeTrap notifies when a VRRP interface transitions (e.g., from Backup to Master), and the snVrrpVirRtrTable/snVrrpVirRtr2Table let an operator confirm which router is currently the active Master for a virtual router group, directly reflecting the software-level redundancy state of the gateway. It parallels but does not directly reuse the standard VRRP MIB (RFC 2787/6527), instead defining HP/Foundry-specific object structures. It is deployed on HP ServerNet (ex-Foundry) routing switches acting as redundant default gateways in enterprise or data-center networks, where NMS platforms watch for unexpected Master/Backup role changes indicating a gateway failover. Network engineers evaluating or troubleshooting this functionality can download the HP-SN-IP-VRRP-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in HP-SN-IP-VRRP-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

Monitoring Examples

An operator would poll snVrrpIfTable/snVrrpIf2Table to see per-interface VRRP configuration such as snVrrpIfMaxNumVridPerIntf, and walk snVrrpVirRtrTable/snVrrpVirRtr2Table to determine each virtual router's current state (e.g., Master vs. Backup) and priority. Subscribing to snVrrpIfStateChangeTrap would alert the NMS the instant a router transitions roles, for example if the current Master goes down and a Backup takes over as the active default gateway. snVrrpGroupOperMode and snVrrpGroupOperModeVrrpextended reveal whether the device is running standard or extended VRRP mode, which affects how many virtual router groups are supported, and snVrrpClearVrrpStat would be used to reset statistics counters after a maintenance window.

What Can Be Monitored

  • VRRP group operating mode
  • maximum VRIDs per interface/system
  • virtual router Master/Backup state
  • VRRP interface state-change traps
  • per-virtual-router priority and configuration
