STN-IKE-MIB

Description: Manages Spring Tide Networks IKE key exchange policy, phase negotiation state, and SA parameters.

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.

STN-IKE-MIB is a proprietary Spring Tide Networks MIB (Spring Tide made carrier-class IP services switches, later part of Lucent/Avaya) for managing IKE (Internet Key Exchange) parameters used in IPsec VPN tunnel establishment on the device. It exposes configuration and state data related to IKE policy definitions, phase 1/phase 2 negotiation state, and security association (SA) parameters rather than general hardware telemetry. Its monitoring value lies chiefly in confirming the software/protocol status of IPsec tunnel negotiation - whether IKE phases complete successfully and SAs are established and remain valid, which is critical for VPN service availability on the switch. It depends on the IETF IKE/IPsec standards (RFC 2409 and related) that define the phase/SA concepts it models. Typical deployment is on Spring Tide IP services switches providing carrier or enterprise IPsec VPN termination. Engineers can download the STN-IKE-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

No sample object or table names were provided in the source data for this module, so specific OID-level detail cannot be given with confidence; based on the short description, a realistic use would be polling IKE phase negotiation state and SA parameter tables to confirm VPN tunnels are successfully negotiated and to catch a tunnel stuck in an incomplete phase-1 or phase-2 state.
