ieee8021SpanningTreeNewRoot

Module: IEEE8021-SPANNING-TREE-MIB

OID (symbolic): IEEE8021-SPANNING-TREE-MIB::ieee8021SpanningTreeNewRoot

OID (numeric): 1.3.111.2.802.1.1.3.0.1

Node type: NOTIFICATION-TYPE

Description: The ieee8021SpanningTreeNewRoot notification indicates that the sending agent has become the new root of the Spanning Tree; the notification is sent by a Bridge soon after its election as the new root, e.g., upon expiration of the Topology Change Timer, immediately subsequent to its election.

Examples

Send this trap to an SNMP manager — replace <manager> with the IP or hostname of your monitoring server (SNMPv2c):

snmptrap -v2c -c public <manager> '' IEEE8021-SPANNING-TREE-MIB::ieee8021SpanningTreeNewRoot
snmptrap -v2c -c public <manager> '' 1.3.111.2.802.1.1.3.0.1

Listen for incoming traps on the manager host (-f keeps it in the foreground, -Lo prints to stdout — useful for testing):

snmptrapd -f -Lo -c /dev/null authCommunity log public

Example snmptrapd log entry:

zoo11-linux.zoo [UDP: [192.168.30.111]:55881->[192.168.30.10]:162]:
  DISMAN-EVENT-MIB::sysUpTimeInstance = Timeticks: (420873289) 48 days, 17:05:32.89
  SNMPv2-MIB::snmpTrapOID.0 = OID: IEEE8021-SPANNING-TREE-MIB::ieee8021SpanningTreeNewRoot
