Description: Manages SNMP agent configuration, trap destinations, and community strings on CommWorks/3Com equipment.

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.

What Is USR-SNMP-MIB?

USR-SNMP-MIB is a legacy U.S. Robotics/CommWorks (later 3Com) enterprise MIB governing configuration of the device's own SNMP agent process. It exposes configuration data for the SNMP subsystem itself -- trap destination addresses, community strings, and related agent-process settings -- rather than broader device hardware or traffic data. Its monitoring value is narrow but specific to software status: confirming the SNMP agent is configured with correct trap receivers and community strings effectively verifies the management plane itself is healthy and correctly provisioned, rather than reporting on physical hardware sensors. It is a self-contained legacy enterprise MIB under the commWorks/USR OID branch, predating and partly overlapping in function with the standard SNMP-COMMUNITY-MIB and SNMP-TARGET-MIB. It is deployed on legacy U.S. Robotics/CommWorks/3Com dial-access or networking equipment for remotely managing the device's own SNMP configuration. Engineers can download the USR-SNMP-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in USR-SNMP-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

U.S. Robotics/CommWorks/3Com networking or dial-access equipment

Monitoring Examples

No specific object or table names were supplied for this module in the source, so a concrete polling example cannot be grounded in real identifiers. Based on its stated purpose, an operator would typically read or set community-string and trap-destination objects to confirm which management stations receive traps from the device, revealing a misconfigured or missing trap receiver if alerts aren't reaching the NMS.

What Can Be Monitored

SNMP community string configuration

OIDs

OID symbolic	OID numeric	Type	Access	Description
usrSnmp	1.3.6.1.4.1.429.4.5			The commWorks enterprise defined MIB objects for the SNMP process.
STR usrSnmpConfigFileName	1.3.6.1.4.1.429.4.5.1	UsrDisplayString	read-only	The name of a ConfigFile to read/write permanent database records. If the value of this object is an empty string, then the SNMP process uses the default name `@file://SnmpProcess.cfg'.
USR usrSnmpCFMStatusFlag	1.3.6.1.4.1.429.4.5.2	UsrConfigStatus	read-write	Setting the value of this object to `save' causes the values of the SNMP Group to be written out to the current config file, which is stored in the usrSnmpConfigFileName object. While the new ConfigFile is being written, the SNMP process will set the value of this flag to `saving''. Any attempts to set the value while it is not `normal' (i.e. the file is currently being written to the ConfigFile) while result in a badValue error being returned. Setting the value to `normal' will result in no action.
usrSnmpCommTable	1.3.6.1.4.1.429.4.5.3		not-accessible	The SNMP Community Table
usrSnmpCommEntry	1.3.6.1.4.1.429.4.5.3.1		not-accessible
STR usrSnmpCommName	1.3.6.1.4.1.429.4.5.3.1.1	DisplayString	not-accessible	The name of the SNMP Community.
IP usrSnmpCommIpAddr	1.3.6.1.4.1.429.4.5.3.1.2	IpAddress	read-write	The IP Address of the remote community
INT usrSnmpCommAccess	1.3.6.1.4.1.429.4.5.3.1.3	INTEGER	read-write	The allowed access for this community. A value of readOnly(1) allows read-only access to user-level objects. A value of readWrite(2) allows read access to user-level objects and write access to writable user-level objects. A value of administrator(3) allows read access to all objects and write access to all writable objects.
INT usrSnmpCommStatus	1.3.6.1.4.1.429.4.5.3.1.4	INTEGER	read-write	The status of the entry for this community
STR usrSnmpCommLastError	1.3.6.1.4.1.429.4.5.3.1.5	UsrLongString	read-only	If there is an error on a request, this variable may contain a message indicating the error.
I32 usrSnmpCommLastErrorTicks	1.3.6.1.4.1.429.4.5.3.1.6	Integer32	read-only	If the LastError variable is set, this is set to the tick count of that error.
STR usrSnmpCommPoolName	1.3.6.1.4.1.429.4.5.3.1.7	UsrDisplayString	read-write	The name of the SNMP community address pool to use for this community.
INT usrSnmpCommPoolValid	1.3.6.1.4.1.429.4.5.3.1.8	INTEGER	read-only	A value of valid(1) means that the community pool assigned to this community exists. A value of invalid(2) means that the community pool assigned to this community does not exist.
INT usrSnmpCommValidateAddress	1.3.6.1.4.1.429.4.5.3.1.9	INTEGER	read-write	If this object is set to use_address(1), the value of usrSnmpCommIpAddr will be used to validate that the management station is allowed access. If this object is set to use_pool(2), the IP address of the management station will be validate using the list of IP addresses configured for the usrSnmpCommPoolName.
