Description: HP ICF SNMP MIB for software activation and license management enabling features on HP ProCurve/Aruba network devices.

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 HPICF-ACTIVATE-MIB?

HPICF-ACTIVATE-MIB is a proprietary Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) SNMP module belonging to the ICF (Integrated Configuration Framework) family used on ProCurve and Aruba-branded networking switches and routers. It defines objects for configuring and tracking the "Activate" feature, HPE's cloud-based zero-touch provisioning and software license activation service. In the snapshot provided the module exposes only its IMPORTS clause with no populated object tree, so it behaves more as a configuration hook for the Activate feature than a rich runtime monitoring source. Where fully populated, such activation MIBs are typically used to confirm a device's software entitlements and licensed feature set rather than physical hardware health like temperature or fan status. It relies on standard SNMPv2-SMI/SNMPv2-CONF conventions shared across HPE's ICF private MIB tree and is deployed on HPE ProCurve/Aruba managed switches enrolled in the Activate service. Network engineers evaluating or troubleshooting this functionality can download the HPICF-ACTIVATE-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in HPICF-ACTIVATE-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 switches
  • HPE Aruba networking devices

Monitoring Examples

The sample objects available for this module consist only of its IMPORTS clause, so no concrete data table or scalar can be cited, and a specific polling scenario cannot be described with confidence from this snapshot. In a fully populated deployment, an administrator would typically check an activation-status scalar to confirm the device successfully registered with HPE Activate and has the correct license/feature set applied.

What Can Be Monitored

  • software activation status
  • licensed feature configuration
