NETGEAR-MGMT-SECURITY-MIB

Description: NETGEAR-MGMT-SECURITY-MIB module

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.

NETGEAR-MGMT-SECURITY-MIB is a private Netgear MIB, part of the FastPath switch software family, for restricting management-plane access via IP-based access control lists on the switch's management interfaces. It exposes an enable flag, an active list name selector, and a table of access-list entries each with priority, IP address/netmask, service, and permit/deny action, along with row status for provisioning. This is primarily a security configuration MIB rather than a performance-counter MIB; its monitoring value lies in confirming that management access control is enabled and that the active ACL matches the intended security policy, which is important for detecting unauthorized configuration drift that could open up device management access. It builds on FastPath's common access-list model shared across other Netgear management MIBs. It is deployed on Netgear FastPath-based managed switches in enterprise network environments. Network engineers evaluating or troubleshooting this functionality can download the NETGEAR-MGMT-SECURITY-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

An administrator would check agentLanMngInfEnable and agentLanMngInfActiveListName to confirm management ACL enforcement is turned on and pointing at the correct list, then walk agentLanMngInfListTable/agentLanMngInfListEntry to verify each agentLanMngInfListIpAddr/agentLanMngInfListIpNetMask entry with its agentLanMngInfListAction matches the approved access policy. An unexpected entry with a permit action for an unrecognized IP range would indicate an unauthorized or accidental change to management access rules. agentLanMngInfListRowStatus is used to confirm entries are active rather than left in a notReady or destroy state.
