What Is TUBS-TNM-MIB?

TUBS-TNM-MIB is an experimental MIB module from the Tcl Network Management (TNM) toolkit developed at Technical University of Braunschweig, used by Tcl/Tk-based SNMP agents and management scripts (scotty/TNM) for scriptable network management. It exposes agent/toolkit self-describing information — version identifiers for the TNM toolkit and embedded Tcl interpreter, a command counter, agent date/time, trap-destination and trap-message configuration, HTTP proxy/source/error status, and a peer table describing other TNM-based peers the agent knows about. Its monitoring value is primarily around software/agent status rather than hardware: it lets a manager confirm which TNM/Tcl version an agent is running, track how many Tcl commands it has executed (a rough software-activity/load indicator), verify its trap-forwarding and HTTP-proxy configuration, and enumerate known peer agents and their reachability/status. It is a self-contained, standards-adjacent (SNMPv2-SMI based) experimental MIB not formally dependent on other vendor MIBs, though it is specific to the TNM/scotty toolkit ecosystem. It is typically found in academic/research or legacy Unix network-management environments running Tcl-scripted SNMP agents rather than in commercial production hardware. Engineers can download the TUBS-TNM-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in TUBS-TNM-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.

What Can Be Monitored

TNM toolkit and Tcl interpreter version
Tcl command execution count
agent date/time
trap destination and message configuration
HTTP proxy configuration and errors
known peer agents and their addresses

Supported Devices

Unix host running a Tcl/Tk (scotty/TNM) based SNMP agent

Monitoring Examples

An administrator would poll tnmVersion and tnmTclVersion to confirm which TNM toolkit/Tcl interpreter build an agent is running, check tnmTclCmdCount as a rough measure of scripting activity/load, and query the tnmPeerTable (tnmPeerEntry, tnmPeerTAddress) to see which other TNM agents this one is aware of and their transport addresses; tnmTrapDst/tnmTrapMsg reveal where and what the agent sends as trap notifications, while tnmHttpProxy/tnmHttpSource/tnmHttpError expose its HTTP-proxy configuration and any proxy fetch errors.

tnmEvalEntry	1.3.6.1.4.1.1575.1.1.5.2.1		not-accessible	An entry (conceptual row) in the evaluation table.
I32 tnmEvalIndex	1.3.6.1.4.1.1575.1.1.5.2.1.1	Integer32	read-only	The auxiliary variable used for identifying instances of the columnar objects in the evaluation table.
I32 tnmEvalSlot	1.3.6.1.4.1.1575.1.1.5.1	Integer32	read-only	The index number of the first unassigned entry in the evaluation table. A management station should create new entries in the evaluation table using this algorithm: first, issue a management protocol retrieval operation to determine the value of evalSlot; and, second, issue a management protocol set operation to create an instance of the evalStatus object setting its value to underCreation(1). If this latter operation succeeds, then the management station may continue modifying the instances corresponding to the newly created conceptual row, without fear of collision with other management stations.
