2.2. The SNMP Group

2.2. The SNMP Group

-- the SNMP group
--
-- a collection of objects providing basic instrumentation and
-- control of an SNMP entity.

snmp     OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { mib-2 11 }

snmpInPkts OBJECT-TYPE
    SYNTAX     Counter32
    MAX-ACCESS read-only
    STATUS     current
    DESCRIPTION
            "The total number of messages delivered to the SNMP entity
            from the transport service."
    ::= { snmp 1 }

snmpInBadVersions OBJECT-TYPE
    SYNTAX     Counter32
    MAX-ACCESS read-only
    STATUS     current
    DESCRIPTION
            "The total number of SNMP messages which were delivered to
            the SNMP entity and were for an unsupported SNMP version."
    ::= { snmp 3 }

snmpInBadCommunityNames OBJECT-TYPE
    SYNTAX     Counter32
    MAX-ACCESS read-only
    STATUS     current
    DESCRIPTION
            "The total number of SNMP messages delivered to the SNMP
            entity which used a SNMP community name not known to said
            entity."
    ::= { snmp 4 }

snmpInBadCommunityUses OBJECT-TYPE
    SYNTAX     Counter32
    MAX-ACCESS read-only
    STATUS     current
    DESCRIPTION
            "The total number of SNMP messages delivered to the SNMP
            entity which represented an SNMP operation which was not
            allowed by the SNMP community named in the message."
    ::= { snmp 5 }

snmpInASNParseErrs OBJECT-TYPE
    SYNTAX     Counter32
    MAX-ACCESS read-only
    STATUS     current
    DESCRIPTION
            "The total number of ASN.1 or BER errors encountered by the
            SNMP entity when decoding received SNMP messages."
    ::= { snmp 6 }

snmpEnableAuthenTraps OBJECT-TYPE
    SYNTAX      INTEGER { enabled(1), disabled(2) }
    MAX-ACCESS  read-write
    STATUS      current
    DESCRIPTION
            "Indicates whether the SNMP entity is permitted to generate
            authenticationFailure traps.  The value of this object
            overrides any configuration information; as such, it
            provides a means whereby all authenticationFailure traps may
            be disabled.

            Note that it is strongly recommended that this object be
            stored in non-volatile memory so that it remains constant
            across re-initializations of the network management system."
    ::= { snmp 30 }

snmpSilentDrops OBJECT-TYPE
    SYNTAX     Counter32
    MAX-ACCESS read-only
    STATUS     current
    DESCRIPTION
            "The total number of GetRequest-PDUs, GetNextRequest-PDUs,
            GetBulkRequest-PDUs, SetRequest-PDUs, and InformRequest-PDUs
            delivered to the SNMP entity which were silently dropped
            because the size of a reply containing an alternate
            Response-PDU with an empty variable-bindings field was
            greater than either a local constraint or the maximum
            message size associated with the originator of the request."
    ::= { snmp 31 }

snmpProxyDrops OBJECT-TYPE
    SYNTAX     Counter32
    MAX-ACCESS read-only
    STATUS     current
    DESCRIPTION
            "The total number of GetRequest-PDUs, GetNextRequest-PDUs,
            GetBulkRequest-PDUs, SetRequest-PDUs, and InformRequest-PDUs
            delivered to the SNMP entity which were silently dropped
            because the transmission of the (possibly translated)
            message to a proxy target failed in a manner (other than a
            time-out) such that no Response-PDU could be returned."
    ::= { snmp 32 }
