SNMP-COMMUNITY-MIB: View SNMP OID List / Download MIB

This MIB module defines objects to help support coexistence between SNMPv1, SNMPv2c, and SNMPv3. Copyright (C) The Internet Society (2003) This version of this MIB module is part of RFC 3584; see the RFC itself for full legal notices.

The table of community strings configured in the SNMP engine's Local Configuration Datastore (LCD).

Information about a particular community string.

The unique index value of a row in this table.

The community string for which a row in this table represents a configuration. There is no SIZE constraint specified for this object because RFC 1157 does not impose any explicit limitation on the length of community strings (their size is constrained indirectly by the SNMP message size).

A human readable string representing the corresponding value of snmpCommunityName in a Security Model independent format.

The contextEngineID indicating the location of the context in which management information is accessed when using the community string specified by the corresponding instance of snmpCommunityName. The default value is the snmpEngineID of the entity in which this object is instantiated.

The context in which management information is accessed when using the community string specified by the corresponding instance of snmpCommunityName.

This object specifies a set of transport endpoints which are used in two ways: - to specify the transport endpoints from which an SNMP entity will accept management requests, and - to specify the transport endpoints to which a notification may be sent using the community string matching the corresponding instance of snmpCommunityName. In either case, if the value of this object has zero-length, transport endpoints are not checked when either authenticating messages containing this community string, nor when generating notifications. The transports identified by this object are specified in the snmpTargetAddrTable. Entries in that table whose snmpTargetAddrTagList contains this tag value are identified. If a management request containing a community string that matches the corresponding instance of snmpCommunityName is received on a transport endpoint other than the transport endpoints identified by this object the request is deemed unauthentic. When a notification is to be sent using an entry in this table, if the destination transport endpoint of the notification does not match one of the transport endpoints selected by this object, the notification is not sent.

The storage type for this conceptual row in the snmpCommunityTable. Conceptual rows having the value 'permanent' need not allow write-access to any columnar object in the row.

The status of this conceptual row in the snmpCommunityTable. An entry in this table is not qualified for activation until instances of all corresponding columns have been initialized, either through default values, or through Set operations. The snmpCommunityName and snmpCommunitySecurityName objects must be explicitly set. There is no restriction on setting columns in this table when the value of snmpCommunityStatus is active(1).

The table of mask and maximum message size (mms) values associated with the snmpTargetAddrTable. The snmpTargetAddrExtTable augments the snmpTargetAddrTable with a transport address mask value and a maximum message size value. The transport address mask allows entries in the snmpTargetAddrTable to define a set of addresses instead of just a single address. The maximum message size value allows the maximum message size of another SNMP entity to be configured for use in SNMPv1 (and SNMPv2c) transactions, where the message format does not specify a maximum message size.

Information about a particular mask and mms value.

The mask value associated with an entry in the snmpTargetAddrTable. The value of this object must have the same length as the corresponding instance of snmpTargetAddrTAddress, or must have length 0. An attempt to set it to any other value will result in an inconsistentValue error. The value of this object allows an entry in the snmpTargetAddrTable to specify multiple addresses. The mask value is used to select which bits of a transport address must match bits of the corresponding instance of snmpTargetAddrTAddress, in order for the transport address to match a particular entry in the snmpTargetAddrTable. Bits which are 1 in the mask value indicate bits in the transport address which must match bits in the snmpTargetAddrTAddress value. Bits which are 0 in the mask indicate bits in the transport address which need not match. If the length of the mask is 0, the mask should be treated as if all its bits were 1 and its length were equal to the length of the corresponding value of snmpTargetAddrTable. This object may not be modified while the value of the corresponding instance of snmpTargetAddrRowStatus is active(1). An attempt to set this object in this case will result in an inconsistentValue error.

The maximum message size value associated with an entry in the snmpTargetAddrTable. Note that a value of 0 means that the maximum message size is unknown.

The value of the agent-addr field of a Trap PDU which is forwarded by a proxy forwarder application using an SNMP version other than SNMPv1. The value of this object SHOULD contain the value of the agent-addr field from the original Trap PDU as generated by an SNMPv1 agent.

The value of the community string field of an SNMPv1 message containing a Trap PDU which is forwarded by a a proxy forwarder application using an SNMP version other than SNMPv1. The value of this object SHOULD contain the value of the community string field from the original SNMPv1 message containing a Trap PDU as generated by an SNMPv1 agent. There is no SIZE constraint specified for this object because RFC 1157 does not impose any explicit limitation on the length of community strings (their size is constrained indirectly by the SNMP message size).

The compliance statement for SNMP engines which implement the SNMP-COMMUNITY-MIB.

The compliance statement for SNMP engines which contain a proxy forwarding application which is capable of forwarding SNMPv1 traps using SNMPv2c or SNMPv3.

The compliance statement for SNMP engines which implement the SNMP-COMMUNITY-MIB with full read-create access.

A collection of objects providing for configuration of community strings for SNMPv1 (and SNMPv2c) usage.

Objects which are used by proxy forwarding applications when translating traps between SNMP versions. These are used to preserve SNMPv1-specific information when translating to SNMPv2c or SNMPv3.
