switchTopologyChange

Module: SWITCH-BRIDGE-MIB

OID (symbolic): SWITCH-BRIDGE-MIB::switchTopologyChange

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.207.8.9.2.2.5.6.0.2

Node type: NOTIFICATION-TYPE

Description: A topologyChange trap is sent by a bridge when any of its configured ports transitions from the Learning state to the Forwarding state, or from the Forwarding state to the Blocking state. The trap is not sent if a newRoot trap is sent for the same transition. Implementation of this trap is optional.

Examples

Send this trap to an SNMP manager — replace <manager> with the IP or hostname of your monitoring server (SNMPv2c):

snmptrap -v2c -c public <manager> '' SWITCH-BRIDGE-MIB::switchTopologyChange
snmptrap -v2c -c public <manager> '' 1.3.6.1.4.1.207.8.9.2.2.5.6.0.2

Listen for incoming traps on the manager host (-f keeps it in the foreground, -Lo prints to stdout — useful for testing):

snmptrapd -f -Lo -c /dev/null authCommunity log public

Example snmptrapd log entry:

zoo11-linux.zoo [UDP: [192.168.30.111]:57527->[192.168.30.10]:162]:
  DISMAN-EVENT-MIB::sysUpTimeInstance = Timeticks: (466153143) 53 days, 22:52:11.43

Start monitoring vendor-specific managed Ethernet switch, multi-VLAN bridge instances (per-VLAN STP status) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Create custom SNMP monitor using the SWITCH-BRIDGE-MIB::switchTopologyChange OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any vendor-specific managed Ethernet switch, multi-VLAN bridge instances (per-VLAN STP status) from a single console.
