Description: IBM/Brocade MIB providing custom extensions for Brocade-branded IBM SAN switch monitoring and management.

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 IBM-BCCUSTOM-MIB?

IBM-BCCUSTOM-MIB is a joint IBM/Brocade MIB providing custom management extensions for Brocade-based Fibre Channel/SAN switches sold under IBM branding, covering the Brocade Pharos embedded switch platform. It exposes SNMPv3 user-management objects (authentication/privacy protocols, passwords, trap destinations) alongside firmware and system-file command objects, meaning its focus is largely administrative/security configuration and firmware control rather than raw performance counters. It supports monitoring of software configuration state, confirming an SNMPv3 user's operational state and access type, or verifying firmware command status, which is important for confirming secure management access and firmware currency on the switch. It is layered on top of Brocade's core Fabric OS SAN switch MIBs and standard SNMPv3 USM concepts. It is deployed on IBM-branded Brocade SAN switches in Fibre Channel storage area networks. Network engineers evaluating or troubleshooting this functionality can download the IBM-BCCUSTOM-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in IBM-BCCUSTOM-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

IBM-branded Brocade SAN/Fibre Channel switch

Monitoring Examples

An admin would check iomSnmpv3UserName/iomSnmpv3UserState entries to confirm SNMPv3 management users are correctly configured and active, and use firmwareCmd/systemFileCmd status objects to verify a firmware upgrade completed successfully; a user stuck in an unexpected iomSnmpv3UserState would reveal a misconfigured management account.

bcCustomMibVersion	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.1			The OID subtree for version information
files	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.4			The OID subtree for various file operations
firmware	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.3			The OID subtree for Firmware operations
INT firmwareAction	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.3.1.2.3	INTEGER	read-write	The action the I/O Module must take for the firmware update operation.Upon receiving this command IOM must immediately execute the operation with all the necessary information which was preset prior to receiving this request
firmwareCmd	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.3.1.2
INT firmwareImageCnt	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.3.1.2.1	INTEGER	read-only	The I/O Module must indicate the number of firmware images that can be updated. For example a value of 0 should be used if no images can be updated, a value of 1 should be used if 1 firmware image can be updated.
INT firmwareImageNum	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.3.1.2.2	INTEGER	read-write	This value indicates the image number that will be updated. For example, if the value is 2, that means firmware image 2 must be updated on the I/O Module. This value is write only by MM to the I/O Module.
firmwareOps	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.3.1
OCT firmwareServer	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.3.1.2.5	OCTET STRING	read-only	This is a string of information about the final result of firmware update operation. It will further qualify in detail the information provided by the firmware update operation status and provide a text string indicating if the operation was successful or not successful. When the operation has completed successfully then the text string Success should be used. When the operation is not successful then a text string such as Failed to contact server or Image was not valid, would be appropriate to explain the reason for the failure.
INT fwImageFileLocation	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.3.1.1.1.3	INTEGER	read-only	This object indicates whether the IOM implementation of firmware updates has requirements on the server that would prevent the MM acting as the server for the image file(s). If there are no unique requirements then mmIsServer will not be set and one of the other enumerations will need to be set. - If the IOM firmware update requires the update file to be un-compressed on the server before transfer to the IOM then externalServerRequired must be set by IOM. - If the IOM firmware update is larger than 100MB the externalServerRequired must be set by IOM. Additional reasons for restrictions may be added 1198 in the future.
INT fwImageIndex	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.3.1.1.1.1	INTEGER	read-only	Firmware Image index.
OCT fwImageInformation	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.3.1.1.1.2	OCTET STRING	read-only	Information about the image - This string must follow the format below: Version: %s\n, Rel-Date: %s\n, Status: %s\n, Type: %s\n, Size: %s\n, Other-Info: %s\n\ Version: The version of the image and should match firmware VPD information. Rel-Date: The release date of the image which should match firmware VPD information of form MM/DD/YYYY. Status: To show if the image is currently Active or Not-Active (backup image ) or Reboot-Active (requires reboot to become active image) and should match firmware VPD information. Type: Boot Rom, Application, Bundled, Diagnostic, Generic Firmware which should match firmware VPD information. A Boot Rom or Application or Diagnostic or Generic image should be used to designate that the image is a single file when updates are performed for the targeted type of firmware. A Bundled image type would be used to designate that the file contains multiple firmware update packages. This should be used if all images in the bundled image have the same version, Release date, . If a bundled image then the image types included in the bundle must be listed in the Other Info. Size: Size of image in KB (Kilobyte) rounded to next 1KB increment. (Note: the MM will read the size of the current image in the IOM and if the size exceeds the allowable space on the MMs internal file system then the MM will not allow the file to be uploaded. In addition if the current image file size is within the limits of the MMs file system but the MM determines the new update image on an external server would exceed the MMs internal file systems allocation then the MM will fail the update. In this case the user on the MM will have to directly transfer the image to the IOM and not use the MMs file system as a source for the update. Other-Info: Any additional information that the IOM wishes to provide. String example 1: (Bundled image that is expanded on IOM) Version: 20.2.2.9, Rel Date: 09/26/2011, Type: Bundled, Status: Active, Size:27500KB, Other Info: Contains Boot ROM and Application images. String example 2: (Application image that is the backup image) Version: 20.1.0.20, Rel Date: 02/27/2012, Type: Application, Status: Not- Active, Size:1200KB, Other Info: None String example 3: (Application image that will become the active image on next reboot) Version: 20.1.0.25, Rel Date: 05/20/2012, Type: Application, Status: Reboot- Active, Size:1200KB, Other Info: None The format of the Firmware Image Information is very important and must be strictly followed. It is intended for other applications to parse and make use of the information. The string is made up of many parts of text information. Each part has the format of the form Token: information_string\n,. Each part consists of a token followed by token information. The end of each part is marked by a new line character, and a comma or a null character. The total length of the string cannot exceed 256 octets.
INT fwImageIsUpdateable	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.3.1.1.1.5	INTEGER	read-only	This object indicates whether the firmware image index can be updated separately using one of the indicated file transfer mechanisms from 'fwImageProtocol'. If this specific image cannot be updated then IOM must return 'notupdateable' otherwise IOM must return updateable'.
OCT fwImageProtocols	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.3.1.1.1.4	OCTET STRING	read-only	The CMM will use this command to read the current supported and enabled IOM file transfer protocols. The bit mask is treated as 32 bits in network byte order. 1310 That is the bit 0 will be the left most bit and bit 31 will be the right most bit. The bit pattern definition is defined as below. Supported Bit Mask (Bits 31:16): Bit(31): This bit is set to 1 if TFTP is supported. Bit(30): This bit is set to 1 if FTP is supported Bit(29): This bit is set to 1 if SFTP (via SSH) is supported Bit(28): This bit is set to 1 if HTTP is supported. Bit(27): This bit is set to 1 if HTTPs is supported Bit(26:16): Reserved: must be set to zeroes. Enabled Bit Mask (Bits 15:0): Bit(15): This bit is set to 1 if TFTP is enabled. Bit(14): This bit is set to 1 if FTP is enabled Bit(13): This bit is set to 1 if SFTP (via SSH) is enabled. Bit(12): This bit is set to 1 if HTTP is enabled. Bit(11): This bit is set to 1 if HTTPs is enabled Bit(10:0): Reserved: must be set to zeroes. .
fwInformationEntry	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.3.1.1.1		not-accessible	I/O Module Firmware Image entry
fwInformationTable	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.3.1.1		not-accessible	Table of Firmware Image information.
INT fwUpdateImageActivation	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.3.1.2.6	INTEGER	read-write	This value indicates which image index that the I/O Module must immediately activate.
OCT fwUpdateImageSftpRsaKey	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.3.1.2.8	OCTET STRING	read-write	Contains the public 1024 bit RSA key used for a secure file transfer utilizing sFTP over a SSH connection.The CMM will issue a set (write) of this object with the CMMs current public key when a SFTP transfer is required for a firmware transfer will occur to the CMMs SFTP server. This will enable the IOMs SSH client to perform SSH public key authentication with the CMMs SSH server.
OCT fwUpdateImageUri	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.3.1.2.7	OCTET STRING	read-write	This is a URI string specifies the protocol and various location parameters to be used by the switch to perform a get operation using any of the supported protocols TFTP, FTP, sFTP. SFTP and FTP are mandatory and TFTP is recommended to support various user update tools. The IOM must report the protocols supported for the level of executing firmware in the IOM capabilities field of the VPD EEPROM. In this context the CMM (or remote host) acts as the server and the IOM acts as the client. The format of this string is as follows: ://:@// An example of a URI for the firmware packet file would be: ftp://USERID:PASSW0RD@192.168.0.2:30045/tmp/1308 application.img1 or ftp://USERID:PASSW0RD@[fe80::290:27ff:fe29:6019]:30045/tmp/application.img or sftp://USERID:PASSW0RD@192.168.0.2:30045/tmp/application.img or sftp://USERID:PASSW0RD@[fe80::290:27ff:fe29:6019]:30045/tmp/application.img where the FTP or sFTP protocol will be used for transferring the packet file, username is USERID, password is PASSW0RD, host IP address is either fe80::290:27ff:fe29:6019 or 192.168.0.2, port number is 30045, and /tmp is the full pathname to the packet file application.img. Note: The URI may or may not have a port number. If the port number is not included the default port number for that protocol will be used. Some protocols do not need the username, password, and the port number, so the minimum requirement for a fully qualified address would be: :/// An example of a fully qualified address for the firmware packet file can be: tftp://192.168.0.2:2022/tmp/application.img. ote: (1) the MM will set the URI to the IOM. This URI may point to a server that is internal to the chassis with an IP address/hostname or if the server is external to the chassis then a public IP address/ hostname. Therefore the IP address of the server may or may not be the MMs IP address. In addition when a public IP address/hostname is used the filename in the URI may point to the top level directory that contains many files that make up the firmware image and the IOM is responsible to accept or reject this operation and indicate this by utilizing the status OID. Notes on sftp file transfers: (3) Summary: CMM will provide to the IOM the fingerprint of the CMM sftp server's public key as part of the other parameters in the URI for the file transfer. (4) CMM 'sets' to the IOM the URI which will contain the fingerprint (128bit MD5 fingerprint). For example assume the 128bit MD5 fingerprint of the 1024-bit RSA key is '00:6d:75:9e:f3:38:2b:6b:2e:e7:a8:87:9f:ea:26:03'. CMM issues a 'set' of the URI to the IOM of form: ://:;@://
INT fwUpdateOperationStatus	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.3.1.2.4	INTEGER	read-only	The status of the firmware update operation 0: No operation pending. 1-100: the percentage of completion of the update operation. 101: success. 201: failed
ibm	1.3.6.1.4.1.2
ibmProd	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6
INT iomCapability	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.1.2.1	INTEGER	read-only	The AMM will use this object read the IOM capabilities. The IOM must set its capabilities prior to its POST transition. The unsigned INTEGER value will be treated as the 32 bits in network byte order. That is the bit 0 will be the left most bit and bit 31 will be the right most bit. The bit pattern definition is defined as below. Bit(31): IOM Mode Changeable: Set to 1, IOM supports to change its operation mode. Bit(30): Reserved for Port Based VLAN: Set to 1, IOM supports port based VLAN. Bit(29): Reserved for Port Statistics: Set to 1, IOM supports port statistics. Bit(28): Firmware group: Set to 1, IOM supports firmware group MIB objects. Bit(27): Files group: : Set to 1, IOM supports files group MIB objects.

A set of this object will only generate a test trap from the IOM If a valid SNMPv3 user account has been configured and is enabled. The trap information should specifically indicate that it contains an informational test event.
INT iomSnmpv3tResetUser	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.6.1.12	INTEGER	read-write	This object provides a method to reset all the other objects that make up the SNMPv3 user account back to default values. This may be used for security reasons by the MM in order to provide a method to ensure the SNMPv3 user account is in a disabled state and all associated account information is back to default values (essentially at manufacturing reset values for the IOM). The following is a description of the expected account default values: - iomSnmpv3UserName - set to zero - iomSnmpv3UserAuthProtocol - set to '1' (sha) - iomSnmpv3UserAuthPassword - set to zero - iomSnmpv3UserPrivacyProtocol - set to '1' (aes) - iomSnmpv3UserPrivacyPassword - set to zero - iomSnmpv3UserAccessType - set to '0' (no-access) - iomSnmpv3UserIPv6TrapAddress - set to zero - iomSnmpv3UserIPv4TrapAddress - set to zero - iomSnmpv3UserState - set to '0' (disabled) - iomSnmpv3UserStateStatusString - set to zero

OCT iomSnmpv3UserAuthPassword	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.6.1.3	OCTET STRING	read-write	SNMPv3 User - Authentication password string. Notes: (1) The MM does not validate the contents of the password against any password security rules, the IOM is responsible for validation and may fail the set of this object, (2) value returned for a get request is null for security reasons.
INT iomSnmpv3UserAuthProtocol	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.6.1.2	INTEGER	read-write	SNMPv3 - Authentication Protocol supported by the user. The only allowed protocol is SHA.
IP iomSnmpv3UserIPv4TrapAddress	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.6.1.8	IpAddress	read-write	Trap destination IP4 address. Note: This address represents the address that will be used by an external application for receiving SNMPv3 traps directly from the IOMs SNMPv3 agent user account that has been configured in SNMPv3 user account OID(s) (iomSnmpv3User). This address is in addition to the MMs IP address and does not override or replace that trap address. This value is normally set to zero and will only be set when the external application request the MM to set to a valid IP address. Both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses can be set and if they are then the IOM must send traps to both the IPv4 and IPv6 address. A value of all zeroes indicates no address is configured. For example for a valid IPv4 address 9.72.217.85, this would be represented as 0948d955.
OCT iomSnmpv3UserIPv6TrapAddress	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.6.1.7	OCTET STRING	read-write	Trap destination IPv6 address. Note: This address represents the address that will be used by an external application for receiving SNMPv3 traps directly from the IOMs SNMPv3 agent user account that has been configured in the user account OID(s) (iomSnmpv3User..). This address is in addition to the MMs IP address and does not override or replace that trap address. This value is normally set to zero and will only be set when the external application request the MM to set to a valid IP address. A value of all zeroes indicates no address is configured. Both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses can be set and if they are then the IOM must send traps to both the IPv4 and IPv6 address. The format will be a string with a generic format of the IPv6 address as follows: abcd:abcd:abcd:abcd:abcd:abcd:abcd:abcd, also may be the compressed IPv6 address format, for example fe80::211:25ff:fec3:d364 .
OCT iomSnmpv3UserName	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.6.1.1	OCTET STRING	read-write	String that contains the SNMPv3 userid. Note: this IOMs SNMPv3 user account configuration must not be allowed to be altered from any of the IOM UIs.
OCT iomSnmpv3UserPrivacyPassword	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.6.1.5	OCTET STRING	read-write	SNMPv3 User - Privacy password string. Notes: (1) The MM does not validate the contents of the password against any password security rules, the IOM is responsible for validation and may fail the set of this object, (2) value returned for a get request is null for security reasons..
INT iomSnmpv3UserPrivacyProtocol	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.6.1.4	INTEGER	read-write	SNMPv3 - Privacy Protocol supported by the user. The only allowed protocol is AES.
INT iomSnmpv3UserState	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.6.1.9	INTEGER	read-write	Indicates the state of the user: Enabled or Disabled. The sequence of creating and enabling a user account or changing various OIDs of the SNMPv3 user account will be as follows: (1) Set the iomSnmpv3UserState to disabled. (2) Configure all the appropriate v3 user account information and trap address objects. (3) Set the snmpv3UserState to enabled. When the IOM receives a set to enable, the IOM is responsible to validate that all the SNMPv3 user objects are valid to create a functioning v3 user account. If they are not then the response to this set should fail as described in (4). (4) If all objects have been set correctly the response to this object will be success otherwise the response will indicate failure. Note: enforcing disabling then enabling the user account will ensure no partial account will be configured in the IOM SNMP agent.
OCT iomSnmpv3UserStateStatusString	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.6.1.10	OCTET STRING	read-only	This object will be a bit string that contains detailed information about the SNMPv3 user account status. The intent is that the information string will be passed to the external application in the event that the MM set an enable state using the object iomSnmpv3UserState and the response to the write of that object was a failure due to an invalid account parameter. The bit string in this object is only to be used by the MM for the case above, otherwise the data is not guaranteed to be accurate. The bit mask is treated as 32 bits in network byte order. That is the bit 0 will be the left most bit and bit 31 will be the right most bit. The bit pattern definition is defined as below: Bit(8:31): reserved must be set to zeroes. Bit(8): Set to 1 to indicate the IPv6 trap address is invalid. Bit(7): Set to 1 to indicate the IPv4 trap address is invalid Bit(6): Set to 1 to indicate the access type is invalid or not set. Bit(5): Set to 1 to indicate the privacy 2486 password is invalid or not set Bit(4): Set to 1 to indicate the privacy protocol is invalid or not set. Bit(3): Set to 1 to indicate 1 the authentication password is invalid or not set. Bit(2): Set to 1 to indicate the authentication protocol is invalid or not set. Bit(1): Set to 1 to indicate the user-name is invalid or not set. Bit(0): If this bit is set to 0 then this will indicate all account parameters are correct. The MM will then ignore all other bits within this object. If this bit is set to 1 then then at least one other bit must be set to indicate what specific account parameter(s) are invalid and caused the failed response to the iomSnmpv3UserState enable.

INT portModuleTotal	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.2.1.1.1.8	INTEGER	read-only	This value must return the the total number of ports supported on the IOM. This value must be customized Note: When an IOM supports the ability to activate additional ports supported by the IOM hardware by installing a license key then this OID can be set in two different ways, such that the CMM firmware will handle displaying the port information correctly. (1) The IOM firmware will account for both activated and un-activated ports due to the current installed license key and set the 'Total port available' equal to the activated ports only. (2) The IOM firmware does not differentiate and account for both activated and un-activated ports due to the current installed license key and set the 'Total port available' equal to the maximum supported ports by the IOM hardware. In addition the OID 'portModuleLabel' for a non-activated port must be set to 'Unused' and the 'portModuleLicensedState' must be set to 'notLicensed'. Although the CMM will handle either (1) or (2) above the IOM should implement (1) to assist the CMM user interface response time when displaying port information for the IOM. When an IOM implements (2) this will increase the CMM response time since this will require the CMM to issue more SNMP get operations for the various port information OID's and then discard the information for the user interface.
INT portModuleType	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.2.1.1.1.2	INTEGER	read-only	Indicates the given port type of the I/O Module. The definitions of port types are: unUsed: the value of zero indicates the request is for a real port index of the IOM in the OID. In the port type GET operation, the return value of zero means the port is not used for anything. externalPort: This port is connected to an external device and is for data traffic. externalManagementPort: This port is solely for an external management connection. This port is not used for data traffic from an external device externalDualPort: This port is used for both data traffic as well as for management traffic. bladePort : This port is connected to a blade. mmManagementPort: This port is connected to the Management Module. uplinkPort: This port is configured for up link functionality. interModulePort(: This port is connected to another I/O Module for data. interModuleManagementPort: This port is connected to another I/O Module for management purpose. interModuleDualPort: The port is connected to another I/O Module and can be used for both data and management purpose. interModuleExternalBridgePort: This port is an external bridge port that connects to another bridge. interModuleInternalBridgePort: This port is an internal bridge port that connects to chassis bridge module. To get the port type of a given port, the port type in OID must be zero and the port command in the OID is 2. For an example: To get a port type of the real port index 7, the OID would be: 1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.2.1.1.1.2.7.0 and the result should be 4 (bladePort).

The string format of this command is defined: 1366 File-Name: %s\n, Category: %s\n\0 File-Name: The file name of the file i.e service.log, new_config.cfg Category: The system file must be one of the categories defined in the MIB Object systemFileInformation. The format of this string is very important and must be strictly followed. The string is made up of many parts of text information. Each part has the format of the form Token: information_string\n,. Each part consists of a token followed by token information. The end of each part is marked by a new line character, and a comma or a null character.1433 The total length of the string cannot exceed 256 octets.
INT systemFileCmdMaxSize	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.4.2.3	INTEGER	read-write	The AMM will set the maximum file size allowable for the IOM system file when IOM upload its system file to a remote server. IOM must not exceed this file size limit. The file size will be in KB unit. The value of zero is to denote no limitation. If the actual file size of the system file on IOM is greater than the file size limitation, AMM will set other filter such as Severity, or timestamp to help reduce the file size before IOM upload the file to remote server. If the file size still exceeds the limitation, IOM must truncate the file to only include the most recent activity.
OCT systemFileCmdSftpRsaKey	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.4.2.5	OCTET STRING	read-write	Contains the public 1024 bit RSA key used for a secure a file transfer utilizing sFTP over a SSH connection. The CMM will issue a set (write) of this object with the CMMs current public key when a SFTP transfer is required for a firmware transfer will occur to the CMMs SFTP server. This will enable the IOMs SSH client to perform SSH public key authentication with the CMMs SSH server.
OCT systemFileCmdUri	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.215.4.2.4	OCTET STRING	read-write	This is a URI string that specifies the location and various parameters to be used by the switch to perform a get or put operation using any of the supported protocols TFTP, FTP, sFTP, SFTP and FTP are mandatory and TFTP is recommended to support various user update tools. The IOM must report the protocols supported for the level of executing firmware in the IOM capabilities field of the VPD EEPROM. In this context the CMM (or remote host) acts as the server and the IOM acts as the client. The format of this string is as follows: ://:@:// An example of a fully qualified address for the firmware packet file would be: ftp://USERID:PASSW0RD@192.168.0.2:30045/tmp/service.log or ftp://USERID:PASSW0RD@[fe80::290:27ff:fe29:6019]:30045/tmp/service.log or sftp://USERID:PASSW0RD@192.168.0.2:30045/tmp/service.log or sftp://USERID:PASSW0RD@[fe80::290:27ff:fe29:6019]:30045/tmp/service.log where the FTP or sFTP protocol will be used for transferring the packet file, username is USERID, password is PASSW0RD, host IP address is fe80::290:27ff:fe29:6019 or 192.168.0.2, port number is 30045, and /tmp is the full pathname to the packet file service.log. Note: The URI may or may not have a port number. If the port number is not included the default port number for that protocol will be used. Some protocols do not need the username, password, and the port number, so the minimum requirement for a fully qualified address would be: :/// An example of a fully qualified address for the firmware packet file can be: tftp://192.168.0.2:2022/1527 tmp/service.log Note: CMM sets the systemFileCmdUri to provide the URI that includes the IP address, protocol, filename.filetype and any authentication parameters. a. If the IOM currently has a file contained in the IOM's file-system then the URI will contain the appropriate filename.filetype b. If the IOM does not generate the file until the file transfer, the CMM will create the URI with a prefix filename.filetype such as IOM3_service_.txt. The IOM is then responsible to parse the file name for a the category of file being requested by the CMM (_'service_' or '_config_' or '_syslog_'). Then concatenate to the MM's created prefix the IOM's VPD part-number and a timestamp. For example the IOM would use the prefix created by CMM 'IOM3_service_.txt' to 'IOM3_service_02R1014_20110916-004651.tgz'. (generic format is; _service__- Note: file-type used is completely up to the IOM. Notes on sftp file transfers: (1) Summary: CMM will provide to the IOM the fingerprint of the CMM sftp server's public key as part of the other parameters in the URI for the file transfer. (2) CMM 'sets' to the IOM the URI which will contain the fingerprint (128bit MD5 fingerprint). For example assume the 128bit MD5 fingerprint of the 1024-bit RSA key is '00:6d:75:9e:f3:38:2b:6b:2e:e7:a8:87:9f:ea:26:03'. CMM issues a 'set' of the URI to the IOM of form: ://:;@://
