CHAPTER 1

INTRODUCTION

This manual is for system administrators responsible for

conﬁguring, monitoring, and maintaining the ELS10-26. Much of

the conﬁguration of the ELS10-26 needs to be done using an

SNMP-based network management station. This manual contains

the SNMP MIB variables you may need to conﬁgure, monitor, and

manage your ELS10-26. You should use this manual with the

ELS10-26 User Guide and with the documentation provided with

your NMS.

The contents of each chapter are described below.

• Chapter 1, Introduction, provides an overview of the SNMP

primitives, describes the functions the MIB variables can be used

to perform, and describes how to use TFTP to download the

ELS10-26 system software.

• Chapter 2, TCP/IP MIB-II, describes the standard TCP/IP MIB

variables.

• Chapter 3, Ethernet MIB, describes the standard Ethernet MIB

variables.

• Chapter 4, Bridge MIB, describes the Bridge MIB variables.

• Chapter 5, PPP MIB, describes the PPP link control and IP table

MIB variables.

• Chapter 6, ELS10-26 MIB, describes the Cabletron enterprise

MIB variables.

• Chapter 7, Traps, describes generic and enterprise-speciﬁc

traps.

Introduction

1.1 RELATED DOCUMENTATION

You may need to refer to the following Cabletron documentation:

• ELS10-26 User Guide – contains installation, conﬁguration, and

management instructions for the ELS10-26. It also describes how

to use the Local Console Manager (LCM), which is a

non-intelligent terminal interface to the ELS10-26.

If you need internetworking reference material, you may ﬁnd the

following books helpful:

• Interconnections, Bridges and Routers, Radia Perlman, Addison

• Internetworking with TCP/IP: Principles, Protocols, and Architecture

(2nd edition), Volumes I and II, Douglas Comer,

• The Simple Book, An Introduction to Management of TCP/IP-based

This manual describes the software interface between the NMS

and the ELS10-26. This is relevant for an ELS10-26 running Version

1.0 software. The NMS communicates with the ELS10-26 software.

The Network Management, or UART, port is the interface to the

Local Console Manager (LCM). LCM is a non-intelligent terminal

interface that can be used to conﬁgure and monitor status for the

ELS10-26.

Introduction

1.4 SNMP PRIMITIVES

The major software interface between the NMS and ELS10-26

consists of one simple mechanism – the exchange of SNMP (Simple

Network Management Protocol, RFC 1157) datagrams over any

available physical media. The following restrictions apply:

• All datagrams must obey SNMP format.

• All datagrams must be sent via UDP and IP. Thus, all datagrams

will have UDP and IP headers.

• Datagrams may be sent over any of the following physical

media:

Ethernet/802.3 LAN - the datagram must have an Ethernet

MAC header, with an Ethernet frame type of IP; or, the

datagram must be in 802.3 format with IP-encapsulation as

deﬁned by RFC 1042.

UART (out-of-band management port) - the datagram must

have a PPP header, which indicates that the datagram

contains an IP packet. (The ELS10-26 automatically detects

the presence of a PPP connection versus being connected to

a non-intelligent terminal.)

The NMS must rely on IP, rather than MAC addressing for all

datagrams sent to an ELS10-26. Therefore:

• All datagrams from the ELS10-26 are addressed to either an

NMS or the broadcast IP address.

• Within the context of this document, the terms “datagram,”

“packet,” and “PDU” are synonymous.

Introduction

1.6 USER FUNCTIONS

The SNMP primitives may be used to accomplish the following

functions:

• Obtain the ELS10-26’s current value of certain parameters - the

NMS uses the GetRequest or GetNextRequest PDU, and the

ELS10-26 responds with a GetResponse PDU. If the NMS issues

a GetRequest for an unsupported parameter, the ELS10-26 sends

a GetResponse with a noSuchName ErrorStatus . If the NMS

issues a GetNextRequest for an unsupported parameter, the

ELS10-26 skips to the next object.

• Change the ELS10-26’s value of certain parameters - the NMS

uses the SetRequest PDU, and the ELS10-26 responds with a

GetResponse PDU. The ELS10-26 will change both its current

value and its local default to be used when the ELS10-26 reboots,

unless noted otherwise.

• Obtain the current value of certain parameters and

simultaneously change the value of other parameters - the NMS

uses the SetRequest PDU, and the ELS10-26 responds with a

GetResponse PDU. For the parameters which are being obtained

rather than changed, the NMS must use the ASN.1 NULL value

with the SetRequest PDU.

• Provide notiﬁcation of signiﬁcant events - the ELS10-26 uses the

Trap PDU and/or the GetResponse PDU. The NMS uses the

SetRequest PDU to control the frequency that the ELS10-26 may

send Trap PDUs.

If implementing the parameter is required, it might seem more reasonable to

return a GetResponse with no error and the ASN.1 NULL value as the

parameter’s value; however, leading authorities such as Marshall T. Rose (author

of The Simple Book) suggest that noSuchName be returned, because many

existing SNMP management stations do not handle NULL values correctly.

Introduction

The ELS10-26 implements two non-standard features with respect

to the SNMP SetRequest:

• The variable bindings within a SetRequest are sometimes

processed sequentially rather than simultaneously. For example,

if a SetRequest contains two parameters with an incorrect value

speciﬁed for the second parameter, the ELS10-26 returns a

badValue error to the NMS; however, the ELS10-26 may have

updated its value for the ﬁrst parameter.

• The values within the variable bindings of the returned

GetResponse may reﬂect meaningful information, rather than

being an exact copy of the values from the SetRequest. For

example, if a SetRequest contains two variable bindings, the ﬁrst

specifying that memory should be examined and the second

specifying the contents of the memory, then the ELS10-26’s

GetResponse will update the value of the second variable

binding to contain the actual contents of the memory.

Introduction

1.7 NAVIGATING THROUGH THE MIBTREE STRUCTURE

The MIB structure is a hierarchical tree structure. Each MIB

variable has a numeric value that indicates its place in the

hierarchy. The structure was originally created, and is still

maintained by the International Organization for Standardization

(ISO) and the International Telecommunications Union (ITU), two

international standards organizations. You can get and set MIB

variables by navigating down the tree to a speciﬁc MIB, a group or

table within that MIB, and then to the individual variable.

Figure 1-1 shows the path down the MIB tree structure. Under the

“mib-2” and the Cabletron enterprise branch, are all the relevant

MIBs that the ELS10-26 supports.

Table 1-2 provides the branch structure that is under MIB-II. To

reach any of the MIB-II objects you would start with the preﬁx

1.3.6.1.2.1. For example, to reach an object in the system group, you

would start with 1.3.6.1.2.1.1. To ﬁnd the amount of time the

ELS10-26 had been running, you would want to get the sysUpTime

variable, which is the third object in the system group. So the get

command would look like:

get 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3.0

Introduction

The zero at the end (.0), indicates that this is a single instance, and

that only one value can be returned. Whenever you are looking for

a variable with only one value, you must include the .0 at the end.

Some variables may have multiple values, such as an IP address

and an associated port number.

Introduction

The Cabletron MIB is under the private enterprise MIB branch. To

identify a variable in the Cabletron MIB, you would start with the

private enterprise preﬁx of 1.3.6.1.4.1, and add the speciﬁc

Cabletron ID of 97. The result, 1.3.6.1.4.1.97, is the complete preﬁx

for a Cabletron MIB variable. You would then add the speciﬁc

object ID to complete the MIB variable.

For example, to ﬁnd the sysID currently deﬁned in the ELS10-26,

you would want to get the sysID variable in the Cabletron MIB

group and add it to the preﬁx 1.3.6.1.4.97. After the preﬁx, add the

Cabletron MIB, 1.1. As stated above, the zero {0} indicates that this

variable is a single instance and only one variable can be returned.

The get command would look like:

get 1.3.6.1.4.1.97.1.1

At the beginning of each chapter in this Reference Guide, the preﬁx

for each MIB group is provided. To calculate the speciﬁc MIB

variable, you add the speciﬁc object ID to the preﬁx for that MIB

group.

Introduction

1.8 TFTP

TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol, RFC 1350) is used for:

• Distribution of new software.

• Bulk retrieval of all of the parameters of a ELS10-26.

• Bulk setting of all of the parameters of a ELS10-26.

TFTP has no inherent security provision; however, all ﬁles have

special data encryption, and the ELS10-26 will reject ﬁles that have

not been encrypted. In addition, SNMP primitives may be used to

prevent the ELS10-26 from accepting unauthorized TFTP requests,

even if the ﬁles have the special data encryption. Refer to the

description of the sxswdis branch of Cabletron’s private MIB for

TFTP security details.

Software Distribution

TFTP is used for the distribution of new software. The new

software will be automatically invoked when an ELS10-26 reboots.

New software is released in two ﬁles:

• dnld_hdr

• dnld_software

To distribute the new software to an ELS10-26, the TFTP procedure

is as follows:

1. Start TFTP on the NMS, or on any other device which can

provide TFTP services. (Typically, TFTP must be started from

the same directory that contains the files to be transferred.)

TFTP must be told the IP address of the remote host (the IP

address of the ELS10-26), and the file transfer mode (which

must be “binary”).

2. Use TFTP to retrieve all of the ELS10-26’s parameters, as

described in a subsection below. This step is not required, but it

1-13

Introduction

is recommended if you need to go back to the version of

software that is currently being executed by the ELS10-26.

3. Tell TFTP to transfer (“put”) the first file, (dnld_hdr).

4. Wait one minute, or until the ELS10-26 sends the SNMP Trap

described in the swdis branch of SMC’s private MIB. (The Trap

will be sent when the ELS10-26 is ready for the second file,

which will be somewhat shorter than three minutes.)

5. Tell TFTP to transfer the second file, (dnld_software). This

transfer should take approximately one minute.

The initial one minute waiting may be omitted and this second

transfer may be initiated immediately following the first

transfer; however, that causes the second transfer to take

approximately two minutes, and creates a slightly heavier

network load during the file transfer.

Note: If the above TFTP sequence is abnormally terminated, there is no

cause for alarm, since the ELS10-26 maintains a back-up set of

software, and the ELS10-26 will not use the incomplete new

software.

Older versions of software may be distributed to an ELS10-26,

provided that the older software is at least Version 2.3. To

distribute the older software to an ELS10-26, the above TFTP

procedure should be altered, with the following step being

performed before the older software is distributed.

If the bulk retrieval of all of the parameters of the ELS10-26 had

been performed while the ELS10-26 was executing that older

software, that retrieved ﬁle should be used to do a bulk set of all

parameters (as described below). Otherwise, when the older

software is distributed and the ELS10-26 reboots, the older

Introduction

1.8.1 Retrieving All Parameters

TFTP is used for retrieval of the parameters of an ELS10-26, as

follows:

1. Start TFTP (as described earlier). TFTP must be told the IP

address of the remote host (i.e., the ELS10-26), and the file

transfer mode (which must be “binary”).

2. Tell TFTP to retrieve (i.e., “get”) the ELS10-26’s Configuration

file (i.e., file name “config”).

3. After about ten seconds, the TFTP operation will complete.

1.8.2 Setting All Parameters

TFTP is used for bulk setting of all of the parameters of an

ELS10-26, as follows:

1. Start TFTP (as described earlier). TFTP must be told the IP

address of the remote host (i.e., the IP address of the ELS10-26),

and the file transfer mode (which must be “binary”).

2. Tell TFTP to send (i.e., “put”) the ELS10-26’s Configuration file

(i.e., file name “config”).

3. After about twenty seconds, the TFTP operation will complete.

The software will re-initialize all of the ELS10-26’s parameters to the factory

speciﬁed defaults.

Introduction

1.9 ADDITIONAL INTERFACES

In addition to SNMP and TFTP, the ELS10-26 employs the

following protocols, as part of its software interface with an NMS:

• UDP - User Datagram Protocol, RFC 768.

• IP - Internet Protocol, RFC 791.

• ARP - Ethernet Address Resolution Protocol, RFC 826.

• RARP - Reverse Address Resolution Protocol, RFC 903. RARP is

only used when no IP addresses have been assigned to the

ELS10-26.

CHAPTER 2

TCP/IP MIB-II

The ELS10-26 supports the TCP/IP MIB-II, as deﬁned by

Management Information Base for Network Management of TCP/

IP-based Internets MIB-II, RFC 1213 (K. McCloghrie, editor), dated

March 1991. The MIB is divided into groups of parameters. The

individual groups are described in the subsections below. You may

want to refer to the actual TCP/IP MIB, since this document

paraphrases the standard MIB in order to provide ELS10-26-related

descriptions.

Note: The access types of some of the TCP/IP MIB parameters have been

extended from Read-Only to Read-Write. However, unless

otherwise indicated, the access type of all parameters is as indicated

in the standard MIB.

The MIB tree preﬁx for reaching the TCP/IP MIB-II is:

1.3.6.1.2.1.

sysObjectID

{system 2}

Object Identiﬁer Read-Only

The identiﬁer of the variable used to identify the type of entity.

Cabletron’s MIB sysID parameter will have a value that indicates

that it is a bridge. So sysObjectID contains the object identiﬁer of

TCP/IP MIB-II

ifDescr

{ifEntry 2}

DisplayString Read-Only

A textual description of the port. One of the following text strings:

• Ethernet/802.3 TP

• Network Management Port (this is the UART port)

• Fast Ethernet/802.3u TP (twisted pair connection)

sent or received on the port. This does not include the MAC

header, LLC header, and FCS. For CSMA/CD ports, the Ethernet

Frame Type is considered part of the MAC header, but there is no

LLC header. Specifying a value of zero in a SetRequest indicates

that the interface is to default to the largest MTU available for that

media. The effective value is always returned in the GetResponse.

ifSpeed

{ifEntry 5}

Integer Read-Only

The port’s estimated MAC-level bandwidth, in bits per second.

The bandwidth will be in the range 1,200 - 100,000,000.

Counter Read-Only

The number of packets to be transmitted out the port, but were not

transmitted due to non-error reasons. The deﬁnition of non-error

reasons is implementation dependent. The ELS10-26 deﬁnes

non-error reasons as packet congestion. Packet congestion occurs

when too many packets are to be queued for transmission, or when

packets have been awaiting transmission for too long a time

period.

{experimental 18}).

2.3 ADDRESS TRANSLATION GROUP

{mib-2 3}

The TCP/IP Address Translation Group parameters are minimally

supported (i.e., for any parameter in this group, the ELS10-26

returns a GetResponse with a noSuchName ErrorStatus). It is

anticipated that the Address Translation Group will be deleted

from TCP/IP MIB III, since there will be separate address

translation tables for every type of network protocol (indeed,

TCP/IP MIB II already deﬁnes the IP Address Translation Table).

The TCP/IP Address Translation Group parameters are described

below.

{ipAddrTable 1}

Not Accessible

A set of objects for an ipAddrTable entry. The individual

components are described below.

IP Address Read-Only

The network/subnet mask associated with the IP address. For

SetRequests, a mask of zero may be speciﬁed, in which case, the

ELS10-26 will create the correct network mask for a non-subnetted

network. For GetRequests, the ELS10-26 will always convert a

value of zero into the correct network mask.

2.4.2 IP Routing Table

The TCP/IP IP routing table contains the routing information for

each route currently known by the ELS10-26. When adding a row,

the entire row must be speciﬁed, except for the following defaults:

• ipRouteDest is obtained from the row’s instance identiﬁer.

• ipRouteMetric1 defaults to 0.

• ipRouteMetric2 defaults to lxadminStaticPreference.

• ipRouteMetric3 through ipRouteMetric5 default to -1.

• ipRouteNextHop is obtained from the row’s instance identiﬁer.

• ipRouteType defaults to “direct” if ipRouteNextHop is not

speciﬁed, or if ipRouteNextHop is speciﬁed and it, combined

with ipRouteMask, equals the same network as that deﬁned by

ipRouteDest.

• ipRouteProto defaults to “netmgmt”.

• ipRouteMask defaults to the standard network class mask based

on the row’s instance identiﬁer (except 255.255.255.255 is used if

the row’s instance identiﬁer contains a non-zero host portion).

Parameters include the following variables:

ipRouteTable

{ip 21}

Not Accessible

A list of routing entries; one per route. An entry is keyed by an IP

address (ipRouteDest, deﬁned below). If there are multiple entries

ipRouteInfo

{ipRouteEntry 13}

Object Identiﬁer Read-Write

A reference to additional MIB deﬁnitions, speciﬁc to the routing

protocol which is responsible for this route. This information is not

present in the ELS10-26, so ipRouteInfo should be set to the object

identiﬁer {0 0}.

2.4.3 IP Address Translation Table

The TCP/IP IP address translation table contains mappings of

Internet addresses to MAC addresses, except for the Internet

addresses of the ELS10-26 itself. The parameters are Read/Write,

according to TCP/IP MIB-II; however, the ELS10-26 has the

restriction that a dynamic entry should not be modiﬁed, except to

be made “invalid” (any other modiﬁcations will cause a static

entry to be created). When adding a row, the following defaults are

used:

• ipNetToMediaIfIndex is obtained from the row’s instance

identiﬁer.

• ipNetToMediaPhysAddress defaults to 0.

• ipNetToMediaNetAddress is obtained from the row’s instance

identiﬁer.

• ipNetToMediaType defaults to “static”.

Parameters include the following:

DESCRIPTION

This object is used by a device (with

a Token Ring interface) to set a

Locally Administered Address

(LAA) for its MAC hardware

address. When set, this LAA will

override the default Universally

Administered Address or burned-in

address of the interface.

For devices that do not support LAA:

a read will return all zeroes

any write attempt will return BADVALUE

For devices that suport LAA:

valid values are 4000 0000 0000 to 4000 7fff ffff, and 0000

0000 0000 (a value of all zeroes causes interface to use the

burned-in address).

a set (write) with an invalid value returns BADVALUE.

after a write, new values will only become active after

Token Ring interface has been closed and then opened

again.

the root.

dot1dStpBridgeMaxAge

Time Ticks Read-Write

{dot1dStp 12}

The value that all bridges use for MaxAge when this bridge is

acting as the root. Note that 802.1d/D9 speciﬁes that the range for

this parameter is related to the value of dot1dStpBridgeHelloTime.

The granularity of this timer is speciﬁed by 802.1d/D9 to be 1

second. An agent may return a badValue error if a set is attempted

to a value which is not a whole number of seconds.

6.1.14 Traceroute

An implementation of traceroute was added in order to add the

ability to orginate a traceroute request from the ELS10-26. The

request can be started from LCM, or from SNMP. If the request is

originated from the LCM, the results are printed out on the LCM

console.

The LCM command is as follows:

traceroute [-m max_ttl] [-q nqueries] [-w wait] host_IP

[data_size]

The traceroute MIB has a variable which indicates the amount of

time the results of a traceroute request is accessible from SNMP. It

also has a table, indexed by NMS IP address, ping destination IP

address, hop count, and probe count which is used to start the

traceroute request and fetch the results. Each entry in the table will

contain the round trip time and state of each particular probe in

each hop.

CHAPTER 7

TRAPS

The unit sends Trap PDUs to the NMS, using the pre-conﬁgured

NMS IP address (see lxadminNMSIPAddr). If no address has been

pre-conﬁgured, then the unit sends the Traps to the source IP

address of the last SNMP datagram received from an NMS. If no

address has been pre-conﬁgured, and if no datagrams have been

received since the unit was booted, then the unit uses the broadcast

IP address.

The Trap PDUs are sent from source UDP port number 161, to

destination UDP port number 162, which are the SNMP standard

numbers reserved for Trap PDUs. The unit may be conﬁgured to

send an additional copy of each Trap PDU to a user speciﬁed

destination UDP port number (see sysTrapPort).

7.1 GENERIC TRAPS

The ELS10-26 issues generic and enterprise-speciﬁc (Cabletron)

traps. SNMP deﬁnes the generic traps below.

coldStart (0) - The ELS10-26 has restarted.

warmStart (1) - Not used by the ELS10-26.

linkDown (2) - A port has failed, and ELS10-26’s response is to

automatically disable usage of the port. If the port comes back to

life, ELS10-26 will automatically re-enable usage of the port. The

“variable-bindings” portion of the trap contains the ifIndex of the

port.

linkUp (3) - A port has come back to life, and the ELS10-26’s local

management agent has re-enabled usage of the port. The

“variable-bindings” portion of the trap contains the ifIndex of the

port.

The additional traps are not sent when the ELS10-26 is using the broadcast IP

address.

Traps

authenticationFailure (4) - This trap is generated whenever the

community name in a PDU does not match the corresponding

password. All SetRequest PDUs must match the conﬁgAnyPass

(refer to the of lxadminGetPass for SetRequest exceptions),

GetRequest PDUs must match either the lxadminGetPass or the

conﬁgAnyPass. The GetRequest exception is for one of the

debugging attributes; those PDUs must always provide the

lxadminAnyPass.

egpNeighborLoss (5) - Not used by the ELS10-26.

7.2 ENTERPRISE SPECIFIC TRAPS FOR THE ELS10-26
