Description: Documents Ericsson SmartEdge SNMP agent capabilities for the IETF TCP 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-TCP-CAP?
RBN-IETF-TCP-CAP is an AGENT-CAPABILITIES conformance module declaring Ericsson SmartEdge (Redback) SNMP agent support for the standard IETF TCP-MIB (RFC 4022), which exposes TCP connection table and statistics data. As a capabilities module it defines no runtime objects itself, only which TCP-MIB groups/objects the agent implements for a given SEOS release. It has no direct role in reporting live TCP connection state or counters -- that comes from TCP-MIB proper -- but it tells a management system what level of TCP visibility is available on the device. It is explicitly a conformance layer over the standards-track TCP-MIB. It is deployed as part of the SNMP agent on Ericsson SmartEdge/SSR routers wherever standards-based TCP connection monitoring is used, such as for management-plane session diagnostics. Engineers can download the RBN-IETF-TCP-CAP file directly to load it into their MIB browser.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in RBN-IETF-TCP-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 Multi-service Edge Router (MSER)
- Ericsson Smart Service Router (SSR)
Monitoring Examples
This is an AGENT-CAPABILITIES conformance module with no runtime data objects (sample_objects is empty); it declares TCP-MIB conformance rather than exposing TCP connection table entries or statistics itself. There is no monitoring scenario to invent -- actual TCP connection state and counters would be polled from the standard TCP-MIB this module declares support for.
