Description: Manages OSPF routing process configuration, neighbor adjacencies, and area parameters on Redstone routers.

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 REDSTONE-OSPF-MIB?

REDSTONE-OSPF-MIB is a Redstone Communications enterprise MIB extending standard OSPF management for Redstone routers. It provides configuration objects for the OSPF process, such as process ID, SPF hold interval, and max path splits, along with per-interface OSPF parameters like interface cost. Its monitoring value is largely protocol/software-state health: OSPF process settings, interface cost, and (via its trap-enable group) OSPF adjacency and routing events that reveal a flapping neighbor or misconfigured area before it causes routing instability. It is a vendor extension layered on top of the standard OSPF-MIB conventions (RFC 1850/4750), reusing IETF OSPF concepts while adding Redstone-specific tuning parameters. It is deployed on Redstone Communications routers in service-provider or enterprise networks running OSPF as their interior gateway protocol. Engineers can download the REDSTONE-OSPF-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in REDSTONE-OSPF-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.

Redstone Communications routers

Monitoring Examples

An operator can poll rsOspfProcessId and rsOspfSpfHoldInterval to confirm the OSPF process configuration, and check rsOspfIfTable/rsOspfIfEntry for rsOspfIfCost on a per-interface basis. A rsOspfIfCost value that doesn't match the intended traffic-engineering policy, or an unexpected notification from the rsOspfTrapEnables group, would reveal a misconfigured interface or an OSPF adjacency flap.

What Can Be Monitored

OSPF process configuration
SPF hold interval
per-interface OSPF cost
OSPF adjacency/trap events

OIDs

OID symbolic	OID numeric	Type	Access	Description
rsOspfMIB	1.3.6.1.4.1.2773.2.14			The OSPF Protocol MIB for the Redstone Communications Inc. enterprise.
rsOspfObjects	1.3.6.1.4.1.2773.2.14.1
rsOspfGeneralGroup	1.3.6.1.4.1.2773.2.14.1.1
I32 rsOspfProcessId	1.3.6.1.4.1.2773.2.14.1.1.1	Integer32	read-write	An identifier having special semantics when set. When this object's value is zero, OSPF is disabled and cannot be configured. Setting this object to a nonzero value enables OSPF operation and permits further OSPF configuration to be performed. When this object's value is nonzero, setting it to a value of zero disables OSPF operation and clears all existing OSPF configuration. Once set to a nonzero value, this object cannot be set to a different nonzero value without first setting it to zero. (This MIB object mimics the behavior of the OSPF 'process ID' parameter used through the command-line interface.)
I32 rsOspfMaxPathSplits	1.3.6.1.4.1.2773.2.14.1.1.2	Integer32	read-write	The maximum number of equal-cost routes that will be maintained by the OSPF protocol. A change in this value will be taken into account at the next shortest-path-first recalculation.
I32 rsOspfSpfHoldInterval	1.3.6.1.4.1.2773.2.14.1.1.3	Integer32	read-write	The minimum amount of time that must elapse between shortest-path-first recalculations. Reducing this value can cause an immediate SPF recalulation if the new value is less than the current value of rsOspfSpfHoldTimeRemaining and other SPF-inducing protocol events have occurred.
rsOspfIfTable	1.3.6.1.4.1.2773.2.14.1.2		not-accessible	The Redstone OSPF Interface Table describes the OSPF-specific characteristics of interfaces.
rsOspfIfEntry	1.3.6.1.4.1.2773.2.14.1.2.1		not-accessible	The OSPF Interface Entry describes OSPF-specific characteristics of one interface.
I32 rsOspfIfCost	1.3.6.1.4.1.2773.2.14.1.2.1.1	Integer32	read-create	The cost value for this interface.
rsOspfConformance	1.3.6.1.4.1.2773.2.14.4
rsOspfCompliances	1.3.6.1.4.1.2773.2.14.4.1
rsOspfCompliance	1.3.6.1.4.1.2773.2.14.4.1.1			The compliance statement for entities which implement the Redstone OSPF MIB.
rsOspfGroups	1.3.6.1.4.1.2773.2.14.4.2
rsOspfBasicGroup	1.3.6.1.4.1.2773.2.14.4.2.1			A collection of objects for managing general OSPF capabilities in a Redstone product.
rsOspfIfGroup	1.3.6.1.4.1.2773.2.14.4.2.2			A collection of objects for managing OSPF Interface capabilities in a Redstone product.
