Description: HP IPF (Itanium Processor Family) SNMP MIB defining trap notifications for hardware and software events on HP Integrity servers.

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 HPIPFTRAP-MIB?

HPIPFTRAP-MIB is an HP proprietary SNMP module defining trap notifications for the IPF (Itanium Processor Family) line of HP Integrity servers, part of HP's server management/NSA (Network System Administration) tooling. It is primarily a notification/event MIB, defining trap types and detail-string objects rather than polled configuration tables, used to signal hardware and software events occurring on the server. This makes it directly relevant to hardware/software fault monitoring: traps under branches like hpIpfE0Events and hpIpf02Events would report specific hardware component failures, environmental faults, or software error conditions on the Integrity server, with hpIpfEvtDetailStr carrying a human-readable description of each event. It is typically used alongside HP's broader server management MIB suite (e.g., other hpnsa-branch MIBs) that provide the underlying hardware inventory and health objects these traps reference. It is typically deployed in data centers running HP Integrity/IPF servers where administrators need real-time alerting on hardware and firmware fault conditions. Engineers can download the HPIPFTRAP-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in HPIPFTRAP-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 Integrity server (Itanium Processor Family)

Monitoring Examples

The module defines event groups such as hpIpfE0Events and hpIpf02Events, each presumably containing several specific trap definitions, alongside a common hpIpfEvtDetailStr object that carries descriptive text for whichever event fired. An administrator's monitoring system would subscribe to these traps and use hpIpfEvtDetailStr to determine the specific condition, such as a failed hardware component or a firmware-detected error, without needing to poll continuously. Because this is a trap-only MIB, there are no ongoing counters to poll; the value comes entirely from real-time event delivery.
