MIBs polled and traps processed for OSPF monitoring

Network Protocol Manager for OSPF supports SNMPv1, v2c, and v3 for the OSPF MIB objects that are defined in RFC 1253 and the OSPF traps that are defined in RFC 1850. It reads the OSPF MIB objects that are identified in the VMware Smart Assurance Network Protocol Manager Discovery Guide Supplement to discover the following OSPF objects:

• OSPF areas

• OSPF area configurations

• OSPF services

• OSPF networks

• OSPF interfaces

• OSPF virtual interfaces

• OSPF neighbor endpoints

• OSPF virtual neighbor endpoints

• OSPF neighbor relationships

• OSPF virtual links

  Network Protocol Manager for OSPF then proceeds to monitor the discovered OSPF objects by:

• Polling the OSPF MIBs on the managed devices (described in “MIBs polled by OSPF” on page 147).

• Processing OSPF-related SNMP traps issued by the managed devices (optional and described in “Traps processed for OSPF” on page 152).

• Processing OSPF-related syslog messages issued by the managed devices (optional and described in “Enabling BGP Max Route (Prefix) threshold monitoring” on page 161).
