Description: Documents Ericsson SmartEdge SNMP agent capabilities for the IETF SNMP Message Processing and Dispatching MIB on SmartEdge series BRAS.

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 RBN-IETF-SNMP-MPD-CAP?

RBN-IETF-SNMP-MPD-CAP is an AGENT-CAPABILITIES conformance module (Ericsson SmartEdge platforms) documenting a SmartEdge/SEOS SNMP agent's implementation coverage of the standard SNMP Message Processing and Dispatching MIB (SNMP-MPD-MIB), which itself tracks SNMP engine-level message statistics. It carries no runtime data of its own, only PRODUCT-RELEASE metadata naming applicable SmartEdge product families (MSER, SM, SSR) and SEOS software version, along with references to supported SNMP-MPD-MIB object groups. Its relevance to software status monitoring is indirect: it tells an NMS which SNMP-MPD-MIB counters (such as malformed message or unknown security model counts, reflecting the health of the SNMP subsystem itself) are actually implemented on a given SmartEdge release, guiding what can be polled from the companion standard MIB. It has an explicit dependency on the standard IETF SNMP-MPD-MIB, whose conformance it documents. It is typically consulted during NMS onboarding or agent capability negotiation for SmartEdge platforms rather than polled at runtime, making this RBN-IETF-SNMP-MPD-CAP reference a one-time lookup rather than an ongoing monitoring source.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in RBN-IETF-SNMP-MPD-CAP. 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

  • Ericsson SmartEdge MSER router
  • SmartEdge SM platform
  • Smart Service Router (SSR)

Monitoring Examples

This is a conformance/AGENT-CAPABILITIES module with no runtime data objects, so there is no monitoring scenario to describe from polling it; it exists solely to declare which parts of the standard SNMP-MPD-MIB are implemented on a given Ericsson SmartEdge SEOS release and product family.
