The IP MIB Group
A great deal of network managment relates to the IP subsystem. Some
IP scalar objects are as follows:
ipForwarding- this node is acting as an IP gateway (router). Otherwise it is
a host.
ipDefaultTTL- default TTL for datagrams
ipInReceives- total datagrams received from the underlying MAC layer.
ipForwDatagrams- number forwarded
ipInDiscards- number of datagrams discarded due to resource limitations
- ...plus many more
There are also several tables associated with the
IP subsystem:
ipAddrTable- maintains information about each of the IP addresses on a node:
netmask, broadcast, etc
ipRoutingTable- keeps track of routes associated with the node. Each route is
an
ipRouteEntry type.
- IP Address translation table
- (in MIB-II) contains entries for MAC-to-IP mapping address
mapping for each interface.
