Category: IETF Standards

Description: Defines IP forwarding table management objects for route entries and next-hop data per RFC 1354.

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 RFC1354-MIB?

RFC1354-MIB defines an IP forwarding table that extends the base MIB-II ipRouteTable to support multiple routes to the same destination via policy or next-hop-specific indexing. It's a vendor-neutral, IETF standards-based module exposing routing configuration and status: destination network, mask, next-hop address, route type, protocol source, and metrics. It is a software/configuration-status MIB rather than a hardware one — administrators use it to verify expected static or dynamic routes are present and pointing at live next hops, and to detect routing-table corruption or missing routes after a topology change. It directly extends the base IP group defined in RFC1213-MIB/MIB-II. It's deployed on any IP router or Layer-3 switch where SNMP-based route-table visibility is needed. Engineers implementing or auditing this functionality typically reference the RFC1354-MIB RFC/standard documentation for the authoritative specification.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in RFC1354-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 IP routers and Layer-3 switches

Monitoring Examples

No sample objects were provided for this MIB, so specific object names cannot be grounded here; in practice an operator would poll the IP forwarding table's per-route destination, next-hop, and route-type fields to confirm a critical static route to a remote site is still present and pointing at the correct gateway.

RFC description

IP routing table MIB that defines the routing table for forwarding IP packets with support for multiple next hops and policy routing.
