CISCO-SWITCH-MULTICAST-MIB: View SNMP OID List / Download MIB

This MIB module defines management objects for the Multicast Switching features on Cisco Layer 2/3 devices. Definition of some of the terms used in this MIB: Multicast Replication - The mechanism by which a system creates one or more copies of a multicast packet for forwarding. Ingress Multicast Replication - A type of multicast replication where the replication engine on the ingress module always performs the whole replication. Egress Multicast Replication - A type of multicast replication where the replication engines on both the ingress and egress modules perform the replication. VPN - Virtual private network. A secure IP-based network that shares resources with one or more physical networks. VRF - VPN Routing and Forwarding instance Consists of an IP routing table, a derived forwarding table, a set of interfaces that use the forwarding table, and a set of rules and routing protocols that determine what goes into the forwarding table. MVPN - Multicast VPN MVRF - Multicast VRF A VRF which has multicast routing enabled. VRF-lite - A feature that enables a service provider to support two or more VPNs, where IP addresses can be overlapped among the VPNs. LTL - Local Target Logic A hardware resource table to aid in switching. OIF - Outgoing Interface The interface through which packets are forwarded out. DF - Designated Forwarder.

A control table used to query the switching engine by specifying retrieval criteria for IP multicast L3 flows. Each row instance in the table represents a query with its parameters. The resulting per-flow data if requested for each instance of a query in this table is returned in the cswmFlowResultTable. A row in this table can be created by setting the corresponding instance of cswmFlowQueryStatus to 'createAndGo'. A row can be deleted by setting the corresponding instance of cswmFlowQueryStatus to 'destroy'. The maximum number of entries (rows) in this table cannot exceed the value of cswmFlowMaxQueries object.

A conceptual row of the cswmFlowQueryTable used to setup retrieval criteria to search for IP multicast L3 flows on a switching engine entity in the device.

An arbitrary integer in the range of 1 to cswmFlowMaxQueries to identify this control query.

This object is used to set up the query criteria for the multicast flows of interest. If any one of the defined BITs is set, then the objects(s) corresponding to the BITS in the same row instance will be used for the search. Specifically, if the 'vrf' BIT is set, then the cswmFlowQueryMvrf object will be included in the search criteria. The 'vrf' BIT can be set in combination with any other BIT for the search. If the 'group' BIT is set, then the cswmFlowQueryGroup object will be used as the search criteria. If the 'groupmask' BIT is set, then the cswmFlowQueryGroup and cswmFlowQueryGroupMask objects will be used as the search criteria. If the 'source' BIT is set, then the cswmFlowQuerySource and cswmFlowQueryGroup objects will be used as the search criteria. It is SNMP managers' responsibility to turn on certain bits on in this object instance, if necessary, and the corresponding flow parameter variables to the appropriate values in order to setup the desired query criteria. Bits: 'groupmask': 2, 'group': 1, 'vrf': 0, 'source': 3.

The human-readable name of the Multicast Virtual Private Network (MVPN) routing/forwarding instance (MVRF). When the 'mvrf' bit of cswmFlowQueryMask object in the same row is on, an appropriate value should be specified and only flows with the specified MVRF name will be contained in the result table. If the 'mvrf' bit in the associated cswmFlowQueryMask is cleared, this object is ignored during the query, and all the flows corresponding to the default MVRF will be considered.

The Internet address type for this multicast search query.

The source Internet address of the IP multicast layer 3 flows. When the 'source' BIT of cswmFlowQueryMask object in the same row is on, an appropriate value should be specified and only flows with the specified source address will be contained in the result table. If the 'source' bit in the associated cswmFlowQueryMask is off, this object is ignored during the query. The type of this address is determined by the value of the cswmFlowQueryAddrType object. The default value of this object is all zeros.

The multicast group Internet address of the queried flows. When the 'group' or 'groupmask' bit of cswmFlowQueryMask object in the same row is on, an appropriate value should be specified and only flows with the specified group address will be contained in the result table. If the 'group' and 'groupmask' bits in the associated cswmFlowQueryMask are both off, this object is ignored during the query. The type of this address is determined by the value of the cswmFlowQueryAddrType object. The default value of this object is all zeros.

The length of the Prefix associated with cswmFlowQueryGroup. When the 'groupmask' bit of cswmFlowQueryMask object in the same row is on, an appropriate value should be specified and only rows with the specied group address prefix will be returned in the result table. If the 'groupmask' bit in the associated cswmFlowQueryMask is off, this object is ignored during the query. A value of zero causes all addresses to match. This prefix length will be consistent with the type specified in cswmFlowQueryAddrType.

This object is used to set up the query type for the multicast flows of interest. If the 'perFlow' BIT is set, then, the entries matching this query will be returned in in cswmFlowResultTable. If the 'perFlow' BIT is not set, then only the total number of flows matching this query are computed and returned in cswmFlowQueryTotalFlows, and there will be no entries matching this query in cswmFlowResultTable. If the 'oifList' BIT is set, then the Outgoing Interface (OIF) list is generated for each flow and populated in cswmFlowResultTable. If the 'dfList' BIT is set, then the Designated Forwarder (DF) interfaces list is generated for each flow and populated in cswmFlowResultTable. Bits: 'dfList': 2, 'oifList': 1, 'perFlow': 0.

This object identifies the switching engine for which the query is issued. When the value of this object is 0, the query is performed on the switching engine of the active supervisor.

The number of searched flows to be skipped before storing any multicast flows in cswmFlowResultTable, when the 'perFlow' bit is set in cswmFlowQueryType. This object can be used along with cswmFlowMcastQueryMoreRows object to skip previously found flows and only query the remaining flows in the table. Note that due to the dynamical nature of the L3 flows, the queried flows may be missed or repeated by setting this object.

The number of flows matching the query criteria. The value of this object will be zero when the 'perFlow' bit is set in cswmFlowQueryType.

Indicating the status of the query by following values: -1 - Either the query has not been started or the agent is still processing this query instance. It is the default value when the row is instantiated. 0..2147483647 - The search has ended and this is the number of rows in the cswmFlowResultTable, resulting from this query.

If the value of the object is true when there are more entries available matching this query criteria, than the ones returned in cswmFlowResultTable.

The manager entity that configured this entry and is therefore using the resources assigned to it. It is used to model an administratively assigned name of the owner of a resource.
