Description: Manages login and message-of-the-day banner text displayed on Marvell switch consoles.

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 RADLAN-BANNER-MIB?

RADLAN-BANNER-MIB is a RADLAN (embedded switch OS licensed by Marvell and used by many OEM switch vendors) proprietary MIB for configuring login and message-of-the-day banner text displayed to users during authentication events on the console, Telnet, or SSH. It is purely a configuration/text-management MIB, covering banner content, dynamic placeholder substitution (e.g., hostname, domain), display formatting (bold, inverse, blink), and per-connection-type visibility rules. It does not expose hardware sensor data, performance counters, or fault traps, so its relevance to hardware/software health monitoring is minimal; at most, the presence of a customized banner can serve as a configuration-compliance check. No dependency on other MIBs is indicated. It is typically used on Marvell/RADLAN-based OEM managed switches for branding, legal notice, or security-warning banners shown at login, and administrators can download the RADLAN-BANNER-MIB file to load it directly into their MIB browser for reference.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in RADLAN-BANNER-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

Marvell/RADLAN-based managed switches (various OEM brands)

Monitoring Examples

No sample object names were provided for this MIB, so specific object identifiers cannot be honestly cited; based on its description it would expose per-connection-type (console/Telnet/SSH) banner text objects and formatting flags. An administrator would typically read the banner text objects to verify the correct security warning or MOTD is configured consistently across a fleet of switches, rather than to monitor operational health.

OIDs

OID symbolic	OID numeric	Type	Access	Description
rlBanner	1.3.6.1.4.1.89.133			The private MIB module definition for Banner displays messages in Marvell switching devices. Banner allows users to configure display messages which are displayed on various authentication events. Banner Messages can hold dynamic data such as $(hostname) or $(domain) etc, and display instructions such as: bold, inverse, or blink. Banner Messages can be displayed or hidden with respect to the connection type: via Telnet, SSH or the Console.
rlBannerMessageTable	1.3.6.1.4.1.89.133.1		not-accessible	The table listing the Banner content.
rlBannerMessageEntry	1.3.6.1.4.1.89.133.1.1		not-accessible	An entry in the rlBannerMessageTable.
BAN rlBannerMessageType	1.3.6.1.4.1.89.133.1.1.1	BannerMessageType	not-accessible	This variable identifies the Banner type. There are three types: MOTD, Login and Exec.
INT rlBannerMessageIndex	1.3.6.1.4.1.89.133.1.1.2	INTEGER	not-accessible	This variable identifies a Banner string section in the Banner content. The Banner content is limited to 2000 characters. Content is divided into 13 indexed sections. Each section contains 160 octets, except the last used section which can contain less than 160 octets. Once a section of the Banner string contains 160 octets of data, the user can write to the next index. Overwriting is not supported. To delete all Banner content, use the rlBannerMessageClear MIB.
STR rlBannerMessageText	1.3.6.1.4.1.89.133.1.1.3	SnmpAdminString	read-write	This variable identifies the MIB which holds a section of the Banner content in the table.
rlBannerManageTable	1.3.6.1.4.1.89.133.2		not-accessible	The table listing specifying for each connection type which Banner should, or should not be displayed.
rlBannerManageEntry	1.3.6.1.4.1.89.133.2.1		not-accessible	An entry in the rlBannerManageTable.
ENA rlBannerManageSSH	1.3.6.1.4.1.89.133.2.1.1	EnabledStatus	read-write	This variable specifies whether the banner type specified in the key should or should not be displayed when a user accesses the device via SSH.
ENA rlBannerManageTelnet	1.3.6.1.4.1.89.133.2.1.2	EnabledStatus	read-write	This variable specifies whether the banner type specified in the key should or should not be displayed when a user accesses the device via Telnet.
ENA rlBannerManageConsole	1.3.6.1.4.1.89.133.2.1.3	EnabledStatus	read-write	This variable specifies whether the banner type specified in the key should or should not be displayed when a user accesses the device via Console.
BAN rlBannerMessageClear	1.3.6.1.4.1.89.133.3	BannerMessageType	read-write	This value, when set, clears the selected Banner type. Clearing the Banner type means that the related entry from rlBannerMessageTable is removed.
