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-DEVICEPARAMS-MIB?

RADLAN-DEVICEPARAMS-MIB is a private MIB from RADLAN (the embedded switch-software group later acquired by Marvell) that defines general device-level operating parameters for RADLAN-based managed Ethernet switches, used as the private-MIB backbone in many OEM switch products. It exposes categories including bridge type identification, ARP aging/timeout behavior, SNMP community table configuration and access control, IP host management addressing, and internal error/alarm reporting with severity levels. Its monitoring value covers both configuration state and software/firmware status: rndBrgVersion and rndBrgFeatures reveal the running firmware version and enabled feature set, rndErrorDesc/rndErrorSeverity surface internal software error conditions, and rndBridgeAlarm reflects device-level alarm state, all useful for confirming a switch is running expected firmware and is free of internal faults. It underlies and is imported by numerous OEM switch vendors' branded MIBs built on the RADLAN/Marvell switch software stack, so it has an implicit dependency relationship across many rebranded switch product lines. It is deployed on the wide range of low/mid-range managed Ethernet switches that license RADLAN/Marvell embedded switch software. Administrators who download RADLAN-DEVICEPARAMS-MIB source files typically find it bundled directly with an OEM vendor's own switch MIB package, since so many rebranded products build their management instrumentation on top of it.

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

  • managed Ethernet switches built on RADLAN/Marvell embedded switch software (various OEM brands)

Monitoring Examples

An administrator would poll rndBrgVersion and rndBrgLicense to confirm the switch's firmware version and licensed feature tier, and check rndErrorDesc/rndErrorSeverity for any logged internal software faults. The rndCommunityTable/rndCommunityEntry objects (rndCommunityMngStationAddr, rndCommunityString, rndCommunityAccess) let an operator audit which management stations and SNMP communities have read/write access, catching an unauthorized or misconfigured community string.

What Can Be Monitored

  • firmware version and feature license
  • internal error description and severity
  • SNMP community/access configuration
  • bridge type
  • ARP timeout configuration
  • device alarm status

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using rndImageSize OID:

Select a managed Ethernet switch built on RADLAN/Marvell embedded switch software (various OEM brands) as the target host to create a monitor — the SNMP service should be up and running on it. Click New Monitor, then check SNMP Custom on the Favorites tab, click Next, and confirm the host. On the next page, click Select... to open the built-in SNMP MIB Browser and type rndImageSize into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, then select it and click OK. It reports the number of flash sectors currently allocated for firmware image storage. On the monitor's Main parameters page you can set the target's SNMP port (default 161), credentials, polling interval, and other settings — see the SNMP Monitor help for details. On the State conditions and Alerting tabs, configure when the monitor should change state and trigger an alert; since this is an INTEGER-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the value approaches the flash device's total sector capacity, so you catch a full or nearly-full image partition before a firmware upgrade fails. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
