Description: Manages Wellfleet HTTP service configuration, active connections, and web server performance statistics.

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 WF-HTTP-MIB?

WF-HTTP-MIB is a vendor-specific module from Wellfleet (a router/network equipment vendor later absorbed into Bay Networks/Nortel) for managing the embedded HTTP service running on their devices. It exposes configuration state for the HTTP server along with performance and connection data — active connection counts and web server request/response statistics. Its monitoring value centers on the software/service status of the device's management HTTP daemon: whether the service is enabled, how many clients are currently connected, and general request-handling performance, which helps confirm the management interface itself is healthy and not overloaded. As a router-vendor management-plane MIB it likely coexists with other Wellfleet enterprise MIBs covering interfaces and system status, though no explicit standard-MIB dependency is evident from the available description. It would typically be deployed on legacy Wellfleet/Bay Networks routers where administrators use SNMP to confirm the built-in web management service is up and responsive. Network engineers evaluating or troubleshooting this functionality can download the WF-HTTP-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in WF-HTTP-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

Wellfleet/Bay Networks router (embedded HTTP management service)

Monitoring Examples

An administrator would poll the active-connections object to see how many clients currently have the router's web management UI open, alerting if the count approaches a configured limit that could degrade the router's control-plane performance. Request/response performance counters would be tracked over time to spot a spike in HTTP errors or slow response times indicating the management service is struggling. Configuration objects would be checked to confirm the HTTP service is enabled/disabled as intended on a given router. No specific object names were available in the source data for this module, so the above is inferred from the short description's mention of configuration, active connections, and performance statistics.

INT wfHttpSrvMaxCacheCount	1.3.6.1.4.1.18.3.5.3.22.1.1.5	INTEGER	read-write	The maximum number of archives that will be cached in system RAM. Increasing this value will improve performance for multiple simultaneous request at the cost of memory utilization.

STR wfHttpSrvHostName	1.3.6.1.4.1.18.3.5.3.22.1.1.8	DisplayString	read-write	The fully qualified domain name used for the HTTP server. If the name is set it domain name service must also by provided to allow clients to resolve the name. If this parameter is not configured the IP address of one of the router's interface will be used as the host name.
STR wfHttpSrvHelpBaseUrl	1.3.6.1.4.1.18.3.5.3.22.1.1.9	DisplayString	read-write	A url that is used in all BASE tags that reside in help pages. This base url combined with a relative url points to more detailed information too large for storage on the router.
