OGTRAPv2-MIB

Description: Defines SNMPv2c notification objects for fault and event reporting on Opengear out-of-band management appliances.

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.

OGTRAPv2-MIB is an Opengear-proprietary MIB defining SNMPv2c notification (trap) objects for fault and event reporting on Opengear out-of-band console/management appliances. It exposes alarm-oriented data: an alarm table describing each raised alarm's identity, type, name, triggering value, associated device, and the user or event that caused it, feeding SNMP traps to a management station. Its monitoring value is centered on fault/event status: it lets an NMS learn in near real time when an alarm condition (e.g., environmental, connectivity, or configuration fault) occurs on the Opengear device, including which specific check triggered it and its severity/type. It works alongside Opengear's core management MIBs (referenced via the shared opengear/ogLegacyMgmt enterprise branch) since alarm objects reference indices and device identifiers defined elsewhere in the Opengear MIB set. It is deployed on Opengear console servers and remote-site out-of-band management gateways used by network operators to maintain access to infrastructure during outages. Engineers can download the OGTRAPv2-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

A management station receiving a trap referencing ogAlarmTable would read ogAlarmIndex, ogAlarmEventId, ogAlarmName, and ogAlarmType to classify the fault, while ogAlarmTriggerValue and ogAlarmCheck show what threshold or check condition fired. ogAlarmDevice and ogAlarmInstance identify which physical port or subsystem raised the alarm, and ogAlarmTime/ogAlarmUser show when it occurred and whether it was user-triggered (e.g., a manual test) versus automatic. Seeing a spike of alarms with the same ogAlarmEventId across many ogAlarmDevice entries would suggest a systemic issue rather than an isolated fault.

Manages Opengear console server alarms, power supply, UPS, and serial/host monitoring traps.
