AGENTX-MIB

AI MIB Summary

The AGENTX-MIB enables master SNMP agents to dynamically register, unregister, and manage sub-agents via the AgentX protocol, facilitating the monitoring of distributed management entities and their associated session states without requiring a full agent restart.

This is the MIB module for the SNMP Agent Extensibility Protocol (AgentX). This MIB module will be implemented by the master agent.

Object Name
agentxMIBThis is the MIB module for the SNMP Agent Extensibility Protocol (AgentX). This MIB module will be implemented by the master agent.

OBJECT IDENTIFIER
.1.3.6.1.2.1.74.1
agentxGeneral
OBJECT IDENTIFIER
.1.3.6.1.2.1.74.1.1
agentxDefaultTimeoutThe default length of time, in seconds, that the master agent should allow to elapse after dispatching a message to a session before it regards the subagent as not responding. This is a system-wide value that may override the timeout value associated with a particular session (agentxSessionTimeout) or a particular registered MIB region (agentxRegTimeout). If the associated value of agentxSessionTimeout and agentxRegTimeout are zero, or impractical in accordance with implementation-specific procedure of the master agent, the value represented by this object will be the effective timeout value for the master agent to await a response to a dispatch from a given subagent.ro
INTEGER
.1.3.6.1.2.1.74.1.1.1
agentxMasterAgentXVerThe AgentX protocol version supported by this master agent. The current protocol version is 1. Note that the master agent must also allow interaction with earlier version subagents.ro
INTEGER
.1.3.6.1.2.1.74.1.1.2
agentxConnection
OBJECT IDENTIFIER
.1.3.6.1.2.1.74.1.2
agentxConnTableLastChangeThe value of sysUpTime when the last row creation or deletion occurred in the agentxConnectionTable.ro
TimeStamp (SNMPv2-TC)
.1.3.6.1.2.1.74.1.2.1
agentxConnectionTableThe agentxConnectionTable tracks all current AgentX transport connections. There may be zero, one, or more AgentX sessions carried on a given AgentX connection.
SEQUENCE OF AgentxConnectionEntry
.1.3.6.1.2.1.74.1.2.2
agentxConnectionEntryAn agentxConnectionEntry contains information describing a single AgentX transport connection. A connection may be used to support zero or more AgentX sessions. An entry is created when a new transport connection is established, and is destroyed when the transport connection is terminated.
AgentxConnectionEntry
.1.3.6.1.2.1.74.1.2.2.1
agentxConnIndexagentxConnIndex contains the value that uniquely identifies an open transport connection used by this master agent to provide AgentX service. Values of this index should not be re-used. The value assigned to a given transport connection is constant for the lifetime of that connection.
Unsigned32
.1.3.6.1.2.1.74.1.2.2.1.1
agentxConnOpenTimeThe value of sysUpTime when this connection was established and, therefore, its value when this entry was added to the table.ro
TimeStamp (SNMPv2-TC)
.1.3.6.1.2.1.74.1.2.2.1.2
agentxConnTransportDomainThe transport protocol in use for this connection to the subagent.ro
TDomain (SNMPv2-TC)
.1.3.6.1.2.1.74.1.2.2.1.3
agentxConnTransportAddressThe transport address of the remote (subagent) end of this connection to the master agent. This object may be zero-length for unix-domain sockets (and possibly other types of transport addresses) since the subagent need not bind a filename to its local socket.ro

agentxSessionTableA table of AgentX subagent sessions currently in effect.
SEQUENCE OF AgentxSessionEntry
.1.3.6.1.2.1.74.1.3.2
agentxSessionEntryInformation about a single open session between the AgentX master agent and a subagent is contained in this entry. An entry is created when a new session is successfully established and is destroyed either when the subagent transport connection has terminated or when the subagent session is closed.
AgentxSessionEntry
.1.3.6.1.2.1.74.1.3.2.1
agentxSessionIndexA unique index for the subagent session. It is the same as h.sessionID defined in the agentx header. Note that if a subagent's session with the master agent is closed for any reason its index should not be re-used. A value of zero(0) is specifically allowed in order to be compatible with the definition of h.sessionId.
Unsigned32
.1.3.6.1.2.1.74.1.3.2.1.1
agentxSessionObjectIDThis is taken from the o.id field of the agentx-Open-PDU. This attribute will report a value of '0.0' for subagents not supporting the notion of an AgentX session object identifier.ro
OBJECT IDENTIFIER
.1.3.6.1.2.1.74.1.3.2.1.2
agentxSessionDescrA textual description of the session. This is analogous to sysDescr defined in the SNMPv2-MIB in RFC 1907 [19] and is taken from the o.descr field of the agentx-Open-PDU. This attribute will report a zero-length string value for subagents not supporting the notion of a session description.ro
SnmpAdminString (SNMP-FRAMEWORK-MIB)
.1.3.6.1.2.1.74.1.3.2.1.3
agentxSessionAdminStatusThe administrative (desired) status of the session. Setting the value to 'down(2)' closes the subagent session (with c.reason set to 'reasonByManager').rw
Enumeration
.1.3.6.1.2.1.74.1.3.2.1.4
agentxSessionOpenTimeThe value of sysUpTime when this session was opened and, therefore, its value when this entry was added to the table.ro
TimeStamp (SNMPv2-TC)
.1.3.6.1.2.1.74.1.3.2.1.5
agentxSessionAgentXVerThe version of the AgentX protocol supported by the session. This must be less than or equal to the value of agentxMasterAgentXVer.ro
INTEGER
.1.3.6.1.2.1.74.1.3.2.1.6
agentxSessionTimeoutThe length of time, in seconds, that a master agent should allow to elapse after dispatching a message to this session before it regards the subagent as not responding. This value is taken from the o.timeout field of the agentx-Open-PDU. This is a session-specific value that may be overridden by values associated with the specific registered MIB regions (see agentxRegTimeout). A value of zero(0) indicates that the master agent's default timeout value should be used (see agentxDefaultTimeout).ro
INTEGER
.1.3.6.1.2.1.74.1.3.2.1.7
agentxRegistration
OBJECT IDENTIFIER
.1.3.6.1.2.1.74.1.4

TimeStamp (SNMPv2-TC)
.1.3.6.1.2.1.74.1.4.1
agentxRegistrationTableA table of registered regions.
SEQUENCE OF AgentxRegistrationEntry
.1.3.6.1.2.1.74.1.4.2
agentxRegistrationEntryContains information for a single registered region. An entry is created when a session successfully registers a region and is destroyed for any of three reasons: this region is unregistered by the session, the session is closed, or the subagent connection is closed.
AgentxRegistrationEntry
.1.3.6.1.2.1.74.1.4.2.1
agentxRegIndexagentxRegIndex uniquely identifies a registration entry. This value is constant for the lifetime of an entry.
Unsigned32
.1.3.6.1.2.1.74.1.4.2.1.1
agentxRegContextThe context in which the session supports the objects in this region. A zero-length context indicates the default context.ro
OCTET STRING
.1.3.6.1.2.1.74.1.4.2.1.2
agentxRegStartThe starting OBJECT IDENTIFIER of this registration entry. The session identified by agentxSessionIndex implements objects starting at this value (inclusive). Note that this value could identify an object type, an object instance, or a partial object instance.ro
OBJECT IDENTIFIER
.1.3.6.1.2.1.74.1.4.2.1.3
agentxRegRangeSubIdagentxRegRangeSubId is used to specify the range. This is taken from r.region_subid in the registration PDU. If the value of this object is zero, no range is specified. If it is non-zero, it identifies the `nth' sub-identifier in r.region for which this entry's agentxRegUpperBound value is substituted in the OID for purposes of defining the region's upper bound.ro
Unsigned32
.1.3.6.1.2.1.74.1.4.2.1.4
agentxRegUpperBoundagentxRegUpperBound represents the upper-bound sub-identifier in a registration. This is taken from the r.upper_bound in the registration PDU. If agentxRegRangeSubid (r.region_subid) is zero, this value is also zero and is not used to define an upper bound for this registration.ro
Unsigned32
.1.3.6.1.2.1.74.1.4.2.1.5
agentxRegPriorityThe registration priority. Lower values have higher priority. This value is taken from r.priority in the register PDU. Sessions should use the value of 127 for r.priority if a default value is desired.ro
Unsigned32
.1.3.6.1.2.1.74.1.4.2.1.6
agentxRegTimeoutThe timeout value, in seconds, for responses to requests associated with this registered MIB region. A value of zero(0) indicates the default value (indicated by by agentxSessionTimeout or agentxDefaultTimeout) is to be used. This value is taken from the r.timeout field of the agentx-Register-PDU.ro
INTEGER
.1.3.6.1.2.1.74.1.4.2.1.7
agentxRegInstanceThe value of agentxRegInstance is `true' for registrations for which the INSTANCE_REGISTRATION was set, and is `false' for all other registrations.ro
