What Is TIARA-NETWORKS-CONFIG-MGMT-MIB?

TIARA-NETWORKS-CONFIG-MGMT-MIB (tiaranet-config.mib) is a vendor-specific MIB from Tiara Networks, Inc. that models configuration-management operations for its network devices, tracking configuration state across three locations: the running system (current), local NVRAM/flash, and a remote network server. It defines cfgNetOperTable and cfgFlashOperTable for initiating configure-from-network/flash and save-to-network/flash operations (each keyed by a random cfgNetOperRandomNumber or cfgFlashOperRandomNumber and reporting status via cfgNetOperStatus/cfgFlashOperStatus), plus cfgMgmtEvents scalars like cfgCurrentLastChanged, cfgCurrentLastSaved, and cfgMaxEvents that track when the configuration was last modified or persisted. This lets a management station remotely trigger config backup/restore actions and audit whether recent changes were saved, which is useful for configuration-drift and change-control monitoring. It relies on the TIARA-NETWORKS-SMI module for its enterprise OID root (tiaraMgmt) and is deployed alongside other Tiara Networks device MIBs, and administrators can download the TIARA-NETWORKS-CONFIG-MGMT-MIB file to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in TIARA-NETWORKS-CONFIG-MGMT-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

Tiara Networks network devices (config-management subsystem)

Monitoring Examples

An operator polls cfgCurrentLastChanged and cfgCurrentLastSaved to check whether a device's running configuration has been saved; if cfgCurrentLastChanged is more recent than cfgCurrentLastSaved, that indicates unsaved configuration changes that would be lost on reboot.

What Can Be Monitored

configure-from-network/flash operation status (cfgNetOperStatus, cfgFlashOperStatus)
configuration change/save timestamps (cfgCurrentLastChanged, cfgCurrentLastSaved)
configuration event history count (cfgMaxEvents)
operation source/destination medium (CfgMedium textual convention)
configuration file transfer parameters (cfgNetOperFileName, cfgNetOperAddress)

OIDs

OID symbolic	OID numeric	Type	Access	Description
tiaraConfigMgmtMib	1.3.6.1.4.1.3174.2.4			Configuration management MIB. This MIB represents a model of configuration data that exists in various locations: current In use by the running system. local Saved locally in NVRAM or flash. remote Saved to some server on the network. The purpose of this MIB is to track changes and saves of the current configuration.
cfgOperations	1.3.6.1.4.1.3174.2.4.1
cfgNetOperTable	1.3.6.1.4.1.3174.2.4.1.1		not-accessible	A table of configuration from network operation entries. Each entry represents a separate operation to configure the system from a file located on a server on the network. The management station should create an entry with a random number as an index to perform the operation. The management station should then retrieve the entry with the same random number as an index and examine the value of the cfgNetOperStatus variable to get the status of the operation.
cfgNetOperEntry	1.3.6.1.4.1.3174.2.4.1.1.1		not-accessible	Entry to initiate an operation. Each entry consists of a command and required parameters. Once the operation completes, the management station should retrieve the value of the status object and delete the entry from the table.
I32 cfgNetOperRandomNumber	1.3.6.1.4.1.3174.2.4.1.1.1.1	Integer32	not-accessible	Object specifying a unique entry in the table. A management station wishing to initiate a configuration operation should use a pseudo-random value for this object when creating a cfgNetOperEntry.
INT cfgNetOperCommand	1.3.6.1.4.1.3174.2.4.1.1.1.2	INTEGER	read-write	The commands to be executed configure from the network or save the configuration to the network. Command Remarks. config Configure from network. save Save configuration to network.
IP cfgNetOperAddress	1.3.6.1.4.1.3174.2.4.1.1.1.3	IpAddress	read-write	The Internet address of the server.
STR cfgNetOperFileName	1.3.6.1.4.1.3174.2.4.1.1.1.4	DisplayString	read-write	The destination or source file name on the network server.
INT cfgNetOperStatus	1.3.6.1.4.1.3174.2.4.1.1.1.5	INTEGER	read-only	Represents the status of the operation. If the operation has not started or an operation is not being performed, then the value of this object would be idle(0).
cfgFlashOperTable	1.3.6.1.4.1.3174.2.4.1.2		not-accessible	A table of config/save from/to flash operation entries. Each entry represents a separate operation to configure the system from a file located on a local flash-file system. The management station should create an entry with a random number as an index to perform the operation. The management station should then retrive the entry with the same random number as an index and examine the value of the cfgFlashOperStatus variable to get the status of the operation.
cfgFlashOperEntry	1.3.6.1.4.1.3174.2.4.1.2.1		not-accessible	Entry to initiate an operation. Each entry consists of a command and required parameters. Once the operation completes, the management station should retrieve the value of the status object and delete the entry from the table.
I32 cfgFlashOperRandomNumber	1.3.6.1.4.1.3174.2.4.1.2.1.1	Integer32	not-accessible	Object specifying a unique entry in the table. A management station wishing to initiate a configuration operation should use a pseudo-random value for this object when creating a cfgFlashOperEntry.
INT cfgFlashOperCommand	1.3.6.1.4.1.3174.2.4.1.2.1.2	INTEGER	read-write	The commands to be executed configure from the network or save the configuration to the network. Command Remarks. config Config from network. save Save the configuration to the network.
STR cfgFlashOperFileName	1.3.6.1.4.1.3174.2.4.1.2.1.3	DisplayString	read-write	The destination or source file name on the network server.
INT cfgFlashOperStatus	1.3.6.1.4.1.3174.2.4.1.2.1.4	INTEGER	read-only	The status of the operation. If the operation has not started or an operation is not being performed, then the value of this object would be idle(0).
cfgMgmtEvents	1.3.6.1.4.1.3174.2.4.2
TIK cfgCurrentLastChanged	1.3.6.1.4.1.3174.2.4.2.1	TimeTicks	read-only	The last time the current configuration was changed.
TIK cfgCurrentLastSaved	1.3.6.1.4.1.3174.2.4.2.2	TimeTicks	read-only	The last time the current configuration was saved.
INT cfgMaxEvents	1.3.6.1.4.1.3174.2.4.2.3	INTEGER	read-only	The maximum number of entries that can be held in the cfgEventTable. The system stores the 20 most recent history events in a circular style. These events are also saved to flash. Up to the last 10 entries can be saved if space is available in flash.
cfgEventTable	1.3.6.1.4.1.3174.2.4.2.4		not-accessible	A table of configuration history events.
cfgEventEntry	1.3.6.1.4.1.3174.2.4.2.4.1		not-accessible	Entry holding information about a configuration event.
INT cfgEventIndex	1.3.6.1.4.1.3174.2.4.2.4.1.1	INTEGER	not-accessible	Index in the history event table.
