ieee8021SpanningTreeTopologyChange

Module: IEEE8021-SPANNING-TREE-MIB

OID (symbolic): IEEE8021-SPANNING-TREE-MIB::ieee8021SpanningTreeTopologyChange

OID (numeric): 1.3.111.2.802.1.1.3.0.2

Node type: NOTIFICATION-TYPE

Description: A ieee8021SpanningTreeTopologyChange notification is sent by a Bridge when any of its configured ports transitions from the Learning state to the Forwarding state, or from the Forwarding state to the Blocking state. The notification is not sent if a ieee8021SpanningTreeNewRoot notification is sent for the same transition.

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::ieee8021SpanningTreeTopologyChange
snmptrap -v2c -c public <manager> '' 1.3.111.2.802.1.1.3.0.2

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]:52211->[192.168.30.10]:162]:
  DISMAN-EVENT-MIB::sysUpTimeInstance = Timeticks: (464027123) 53 days, 16:57:51.23
  SNMPv2-MIB::snmpTrapOID.0 = OID: IEEE8021-SPANNING-TREE-MIB::ieee8021SpanningTreeTopologyChange

Start monitoring Vendor-neutral IEEE 802.1D/Q standard (Ethernet bridge or switch running STP) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Create custom SNMP monitor using the IEEE8021-SPANNING-TREE-MIB::ieee8021SpanningTreeTopologyChange OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any Vendor-neutral IEEE 802.1D/Q standard (Ethernet bridge or switch running STP) from a single console.
