Description: Defines SNMP management objects for HIPPI high-performance parallel interface monitoring.

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 RFC-HIPPI-MIB?

RFC-HIPPI-MIB is a vendor-neutral IETF standards MIB defining SNMP management objects for HIPPI (High-Performance Parallel Interface), a high-speed parallel networking technology historically used to interconnect supercomputers, mainframes, and high-end storage systems. It would typically expose interface-level configuration and status objects analogous to other interface MIBs, covering link operational state and performance counters for HIPPI connections, though no specific object names were provided in the source data. Its monitoring role would be centered on interface/link status and throughput on HIPPI links connecting high-performance computing equipment, though this cannot be confirmed from the available sample data. As an IETF standards MIB it is designed to be used alongside or as an extension of the standard IF-MIB interface framework. It would typically have been deployed in legacy high-performance computing environments using HIPPI interconnects, such as supercomputer centers. Engineers can download the RFC-HIPPI-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in RFC-HIPPI-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

  • vendor-neutral, standards-based MIB, not tied to a specific manufacturer; applies to HIPPI-interconnected high-performance computing equipment

Monitoring Examples

No sample_objects were provided for this MIB in the source data, so no concrete object names or monitoring scenario can be honestly constructed; this MIB would be expected to expose HIPPI interface configuration and status objects, but that cannot be confirmed without the actual MIB source.
