Category: Quality of Service

Description: Defines managed objects for managing the Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP), which provides Quality of Service (QoS) resource reservation for network data flows.

IPNetwork Monitor uses several OIDs from this MIB in network discovery and polling the applicable devices. Start monitoring RSVP-MIB with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor.

What Is RSVP-MIB?

RSVP-MIB is a vendor-neutral IETF standards-track module covering the Resource Reservation Protocol, which routers and hosts use to signal and reserve per-flow bandwidth and Quality-of-Service resources across a network path. Its full object set (beyond the conformance groups sampled here) covers RSVP session state, sender/receiver flow descriptors, and reserved-resource/style information for each active reservation. Because the sample for this module surfaced only its conformance objects (rsvpGroups, rsvpCompliances), the concrete monitoring focus at this granularity is protocol/software compliance and feature-support status rather than a specific runtime counter, though the broader MIB is used operationally to track active reservation counts and per-flow resource state for qos rsvp deployments. It is closely tied to the underlying IP-MIB/IF-MIB for interface indexing of RSVP-enabled interfaces, and often deployed alongside DiffServ/MPLS-TE MIBs in QoS-aware networks. It is typically deployed on routers participating in RSVP-based QoS reservation or RSVP-TE (traffic engineering) for MPLS in service-provider and enterprise WAN backbones.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in RSVP-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
  • QoS-capable routers supporting RSVP/RSVP-TE reservations

Monitoring Examples

The objects captured in this sample (rsvpGroups, rsvpCompliances) are conformance/compliance statement objects rather than runtime data, so this batch does not evidence a concrete monitoring scenario from real polled values. In actual use, the broader RSVP-MIB (per RFC 2206) exposes session and reservation tables that an administrator would poll to confirm active reservations and reserved bandwidth per flow on RSVP-enabled interfaces. Given the limited sample here, that runtime behavior can be described only generically rather than tied to specific object names observed in this data.
