This chapter describes the eSNMP commands. Topics include:
When the eSNMP software receives a request from the network management station (NMS), the master agent exchanges commands with the subagent and then returns a response to the NMS. The user on the NMS or other connected entity does not see the command exchange between the master agent and the subagent. However, understanding the details of each command and its valid responses may help you determine what type of information can be obtained from eSNMP.
Table 2-1 shows the available commands in the DIGITAL TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS implementation of eSNMP.
Command | Description | From - To |
---|---|---|
Get | Returns value of variable(s) | NMS 1 to agent |
GetNext | Returns next value in a list of variables | NMS to agent |
Set | Assigns a value to a variable | NMS to agent |
Trap 2 | Transmits unsolicited information | Agent to NMS |
Responses 3 | Responses to commands | Agent to NMS |
The eSNMP Get command initiates a network management query to a remote agent which returns a response. This command attempts to retrieve the items of management information. Figure 2-1 shows the PDU format for the Get command.
Figure 2-1 eSNMP Get Request/Response
The Get command request can generate a number of errors that are sent to the NMS from the master agent. Those errors include noSuchName, tooBig, and genErr. This set of errors is expanded through the use of error index numbering. The common errors that arise from the agent are presented below:
The GetNext command attempts to retrieve object values for specified subtrees of the MIB. This GetNext command has run-off capability which exists when the master agent passes or infinitely returns routes creating a large amount of worthless data. Figure 2-2 shows the PDU format for the Get Next command.
Figure 2-2 eSNMP GetNext Request/Response
The Set command changes the value of an eSNMP variable by initiating a network management request to the remote management agent. When used on a table row that contains multiple variables, this command has multiple variables, one for each object, but only one object identifier (OID). Figure 2-3 shows the PDU format for the Set command.
Figure 2-3 eSNMP Set Request/Response
At the eSNMP protocol level, a management station issues a Set command that contains an arbitrary set of variable binding structures. If the agent detects that one or more of the variable binding structures refer to an object instance not currently available in that agent, eSNMP may either:
The Set command request can generate a number of errors that are sent to the NMS from the master agent. These errors include noSuchName, tooBig, badValue, and genErr. The set of errors is expanded through the use of error index numbering. The following are the common errors that arise from the agent:
This chapter describes the two MIBs provided with the eSNMP master agent. The two MIBs are the Host Resources MIB and MIB-II. The Host Resources MIB manages operating system objects and MIB-II manages TCP/IP stack objects. Topics include:
The Host Resources MIB defines a uniform set of objects useful for the
management of host computers. The Host Resources MIB, as defined by
Request for Comment (RFC) 1514, defines objects that are common across
many computer system architectures. The DIGITAL implementation of eSNMP
includes 24 of these 151 objects. In addition, some objects in MIB-II
also provide host management functionality.
3.2 Defining Host Resources MIB Implemented Objects
This section defines each of the 24 implemented eSNMP objects. Table 3-1 provides the data type and access level for each implemented object. Table 3-2 provides a general RFC description and an OpenVMS specific description for each implemented object.
For objects that are not implemented, the Host Resources MIB returns a Nosuchobject error status. |

This MIB also provides information on how connections are established and how packets are routed through the Internet.
