Overview
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a set of protocols for managing complex
networks. SNMP protocols are application layer protocols. Using SNMP, devices within a network
send messages, called protocol data units (PDUs), to different parts of a network. Network
management using SNMP requires three components:

SNMP Manager
SNMP Agent
Management Information Base (MIB)

Fabric OS MIB Reference


53-1004120-02

Basic SNMP operation

SNMP Manager
The SNMP Manager can communicate to the devices within a network using the SNMP protocol.
Typically, SNMP Managers are network management systems (NMS) that manage networks by
monitoring the network parameters, and optionally, setting parameters in managed devices.
Normally, the SNMP Manager sends read requests to the devices that host the SNMP Agent, to
which the SNMP Agent responds with the requested data. In some cases, the managed devices
can initiate the communication, and send data to the SNMP Manager using asynchronous events
called traps.

SNMP Agent
The SNMP agent is a software that resides in the managed devices in the network, and collects
data from these devices. Each device hosts an SNMP Agent. The SNMP Agent stores the data, and
sends these when requested by an SNMP Manager. In addition, the Agent can asynchronously alert
the SNMP Manager about events, by using special PDUs called traps.

Management Information Base (MIB)


SNMP Agents in the managed devices store the data about these devices in a database called
Management Information Base (MIB). The MIB is a hierarchical database, which is structured on
the standard specified in the RFC 2578 (Structure of Management Information Version 2 (SMIv2)).
The MIB is a database of objects that can be used by a network management system to manage
and monitor devices on the network. The MIB can be retrieved by a network management system
that uses SNMP. The MIB structure determines the scope of management access allowed by a
device. By using SNMP, a manager application can issue read or write operations within the scope
of the MIB.

Basic SNMP operation


Every Brocade device carries an agent and management information base (MIB). The agent
accesses information about a device and makes it available to an SNMP network management
station.

Management Station

FIGURE 1

SNMP structure

When active, the management station can get information or set information when it queries an
agent. SNMP commands, such as get, set, getnext, and getresponse, are sent from the
management station, and the agent replies once the value is obtained or modified. Agents use
variables to report such data as the number of bytes and packets in and out of the device, or the
number of broadcast messages sent and received. These variables are also known as managed
objects. All managed objects are contained in the MIB.

The agent can receive queries from one or more management stations and can send traps to up to
six management stations.

Understanding MIBs
The management information base (MIB) is a database of monitored and managed information on
a device, in this case a Brocade switch. The MIB structure can be represented by a tree hierarchy.
The root splits into three main branches: International Organization for Standardization (ISO),
Consultative Committee for International Telegraph and Telephone (CCITT), and joint ISO/CCITT.
These branches have short text strings and integers (OIDs) to identify them. Text strings describe
object names, while integers allow software to create compact, encoded representations of the
names.
Each MIB variable is assigned an object identifier (OID). The OID is the sequence of numeric labels
on the nodes along a path from the root to the object. For example, as shown in Figure 4, the
Brocade SW.MIB OID is:
1.3.6.1.4.1.1588.2.1.1.1

The corresponding name is:


iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprise.bcsi.commDev.fibreChannel.fcSwitch.sw

The other branches are part of the standard MIBs, and the portions relevant to configuring SNMP
on a Brocade switch are referenced in the remainder of this reference.

Access to MIB variables


Use a MIB browser to access the MIB variables: all MIB browsers perform queries and load MIBs.
Once loaded, the MAX-ACCESS provides access levels between the agent and management station.
The access levels are as follows:

not accessible
You cannot read or write to this variable.

read create
Specifies a tabular object that can be read, modified, or created as a new row in a table.

read only - Public


You can only monitor information.

read-write - Private
You can read or modify this variable.

accessible-to-notify
You can read this information only through traps.

SNMP support

SNMP support
In addition to the standard MIBs that Brocade devices support, these devices also support
Brocade-specific MIBs. Since different vendors vary the information in their private enterprise
MIBs, it is necessary to verify their information. The Fibre Channel MIB standards dictate that
certain information be included in all MIBs: it is the vendors' responsibility to follow the standards.
The standards are as follows:

FibreAlliance (FA) MIB: Brocade supports v4.4.0 and later releases.


Fabric Element (FE) MIB: accepted by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF).
Brocade supports FE_RFC2837.mib under the MIB-II branch in Fabric v6.0.0 and later releases.
The latest version of the FE MIB references the FRAMEWORK.MIB and, based on the MIB browser,
it is necessary to load this MIB before the FE.MIB.
For more information, refer to Loading Brocade MIBs on page 7.

Traps
An unsolicited message that comes to the management station from the SNMP agent on the
device is called a trap. Brocade switches send traps out on UDP port 162 and to any configured
port. In order to receive traps, the management station IP address and severity level must be
configured on the switch. You can define a different message severity level for each recipient so
that some recipients receive all trap messages and others receive only the most critical.

NOTE

Due to design limitations, IP address validation cannot be done for trap recipients.
There are two main MIB trap choices:

FibreAlliance MIB trap: Associated with the Fibre Alliance MIB (FA-MIB), this MIB manages SAN
switches and devices from any company that complies with Fibre Alliance specifications.

Brocade-specific MIB trap: Associated with the Brocade-specific Brocade MIB (SW-MIB),
manages Brocade switches only.
There is some overlap in the functionality of these MIBs. If you enable both SW-MIB and FA-MIB
traps, you could receive duplicate messages for the switch events that trigger the trap.
You can also use these additional MIBs and their associated traps: HA-MIB; FICON-MIB; and
SWEXTTRAP. In Fabric OS 7.4.0 or later, you can use the snmpConfig command to enable or disable
all the MIBs.
An event trap (swEventTrap, connUnitEventTrap, or swFabricWatchTrap) is basically an error
message (errShow output) that is SNMP-formatted and delivered.

FA traps
Consider enabling the FA traps if you want to use SNMP to monitor multiple connectivity units,
including Brocade switches.
The switchStatusPolicySet command determines the FA-TRAP switch status-related outputs:

connUnitStatusChange: This trap is generated by Fabric watch such that only the
swUnitsStatusChange is controlled by switchStatusPolicySet command.

Fabric OS MIB Reference


53-1004120-02

Traps

connUnitSensorStatusChange: This trap is generated by any sensor event.


connUnitPortStatusChange: This trap sends the instance of connUnitPortName as part of the
trap; the instance string is NULL, if the port name is not defined for the specified port.

connUnitEventTrap: All the external traps gets converted into swEventTrap except for AN-1006,
AUTH-3001 to AUTH-3008, FW-3001, SEC-3001 to SEC-3034, and SEC-3044 to SEC-3048
RASlog messages.
Events in the Error Log of a severity at or above the configured threshold will generate SNMP traps.
The Fibre Alliance Trap (FA-TRAP) can be configured to send traps using the snmpConfig command.
For more information on this command, refer to the Fabric OS Command Reference.

HA traps
Consider enabling these traps to monitor field-replaceable unit (FRU) status and control processor
(CP) status when you have a Brocade director in your environment:

fruStatusChanged: This trap is generated by a FRU status change, such as a switch reboot or
disabling or enabling a FRU component such as fandisable, fanenable and so on.

cpStatusChanged: This trap is generated by a change in the status of a CP, including a reboot
or firmware download.

fruHistoryTrap: This trap is generated when a FRU is added or removed. It is not generated
when standby CP is removed.
The high availability trap (HA-TRAP) can be configured to send traps using the snmpConfig
command. For more information on this command, refer to the Fabric OS Command Reference.

SW traps
There are sixteen specific traps defined in Brocade SW-TRAP.

swFCPortScn: This trap is generated by a port state change.


swEventTrap: This trap is generated by any switch event reported to the system error log. The
desired severity level is introduced to filter a swEvent trap based on the severity level.

swIPv6ChangeTrap: This trap is generated when an IPv6 address status change event occurs.
It is generated only when IPv6 stateless state changes to the deprecation state and not for
address change notification.

swPmgrEventTrap: This trap is generated when any partition manager change happens.
swFabricReconfigTrap: The trap to be sent for tracking fabric reconfiguration.
swFabricSegmentTrap: The trap to be sent for tracking segmentation.
swExtTrap: The trap adds the SSN binding to the traps if it is enabled.
swStateChangeTrap: This trap is sent when the switch changes its state to online or offline.
swPortMoveTrap: This trap is sent when the virtual ports are moved from one switch to
another.

Fabric OS MIB Reference


53-1004120-02

Loading Brocade MIBs

swBrcdGenericTrap: This trap is sent for the following events. This trap is for Brocade use.
- Routing Policy change
- Diagnostics Port Configuration Change
- Polling status
- Dynamic Port Name change
- Dynamic Port Name Feature Enable/Disable Event
swDeviceStatusTrap: This trap is sent whenever a device logs in or logs out.
swZoneConfigChangeTrap: This trap is sent whenever there is change in local zone database.
The Brocade trap (SW-TRAP) can be configured to send traps using the snmpConfig command.

FICON traps

linkRNIDDeviceRegistration: A device registered with the switch.


linkRNIDDeviceDeRegistration: A device de-registered with the switch.
linkLIRRListenerAdded: A listener for link failure incident is added.
linkLIRRListenerRemoved: A listener for link failure incident is removed.
linkRLIRFailureIncident: A link failure incident has occurred.

IF traps
linkDown: A linkDown trap signifies that the SNMPv2 entity acting in an agent role has
detected that the ifOperStatus object for one of its communication links is about to transition
into the down state.

linkUp: A linkUp trap signifies that the SNMPv2 entity acting in an agent role has detected that
the ifOperStatus object for one of its communication links has transitioned out of the down
state.

MAPS traps
Consider enabling the MAPS traps if you want to use SNMP to monitor Brocade switches.

mapsTrapAM: Traps to be sent for Monitoring and Alerting Policy Suite (MAPS) threshold
events.

Firmware upgrades and enabled traps


You can turn on and off traps individually within a trap group. By default the individual traps are
turned off even if the corresponding trap group was enabled before upgrading. You must use the
snmpconfig command to turn on the individual traps within each trap group.

Support for Administrative Domains


In Fabric OS 8.0.1, support for Administration Domains (ADs) is deprecated. In Fabric OS 8.0.1, a
warning message will be displayed and a RASLog entry be generated for any AD configuration
commands or if an AD is activated though a command or zone merge.

Support for Role-Based Access Control


Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) is supported in Fabric OS 5.3.0 and later releases. RBAC applies
a fixed set of roles that address the access control needs of a majority of customers. Each role is a
set of permissions that can be applied to a user that controls the kinds of jobs and tasks the user
can perform on a fabric or fabric element.

Fabric OS MIB Reference

Support for IPv6 addressing

Support for IPv6 addressing


IPv6 addressing is supported in Fabric OS 5.3.0 and later releases.

Support for Virtual Fabric


Virtual Fabric is supported in Fabric OS v6.2.0 and later releases.

NOTE

An SNMPv3 must be used when you want to manage a Virtual Fabric.


When an SNMPv3 request arrives with a particular user name, it executes in the home Virtual
Fabric. From the SNMP manager, all SNMPv3 requests have a home Virtual Fabric that is specified
in the contextName field. When the home Virtual Fabric is specified, it is then converted to the
corresponding switch ID and the home Virtual Fabric is set. If you do not have permission for the
specified home Virtual Fabric, this request will fail with an error code of noAccess.
For non-default SNMPv3 user to have a home Virtual Fabric, a list of allowed Virtual Fabrics, an
RBAC role, and the name of the SNMPv3 user must match that of the Fabric OS user in the local
switch database. SNMPv3 users whose names do not match with any of the existing Fabric OS
local users are assigned a default RBAC role of admin with read and write permission.SNMPv3
user access control permissions. Their SNMPv3 user logs in with an access control of read-only.
Both user types will have the default switch as their home Virtual Fabrics.
The contextName field should have the format VF:xxx, where xxx is the actual VF_ID, for example
VF:1. If the contextName field is empty, then the home Virtual Fabric of the local Fabric OS user
with the same name is used. As Virtual Fabrics and Admin Domains are mutually exclusive, this
field is considered as Virtual Fabrics context when Virtual Fabrics is enabled. You cannot specify
chassis context in the contextName field.
The following example shows how the VF:xxx field is used in the snmpwalk command. This
command is executed on the host and it walks the MIB sub-tree specified.
switch# snmpwalk -v3 -a MD5 -A passpass -x AES128 -u admin1 -X passpass -n VF:4
10.20.8.17 1.3.6.1.4.1.1588.2.1.2.1.5.1 -l authPriv

NOTE
In Fabric OS 8.0.1, support for Administration Domains (ADs) is deprecated. A warning message will
be displayed and a RASLog entry will be generated for any AD configuration commands or if an AD
is activated through a command or zone merge.

Filtering ports
Each port can belong to only one Virtual Fabric at any time. An SNMP request coming to one Virtual
Fabric can only view the port information of the ports belonging to that Virtual Fabric. All port
attributes are filtered to allow SNMP to obtain the port information only from within the current
Virtual Fabrics context.

Switch and chassis context enforcement


All attributes are classified into one of two categories:

12

Fabric OS MIB Reference


53-1004120-02

Customized traps

Chassis-level attributes
Switch-level attributes
Attributes that are specific to each logical switch belong to the switch category. These attributes are
available in the Virtual Fabrics context and not available in the Chassis context.
Attributes that are common across the logical switches belong to the chassis level. These attributes
are accessible to users having the chassis-role permission. When a chassis table is queried, the
context is set to chassis context, if the user has the chassis-role permission. The context is
switched back to the original context after the operation is performed.

Customized traps
This section is only applicable for OEM customers. FOS 7.0.0 and 7.0.1 releases supported addition
of system OID in trap OID to customized trap OID on different platforms. For example, Fabric Watch
customized trap OID is 1.3.6.1.4.1.1588.2.1.1.62.0.5 on DCX and 1.3.6.1.4.1.1588.2.1.1.71.0.5
on Brocade 5100. This feature is not supported from FOS 7.1.0 release.

Retries and Timeouts


Retries are the number of times a request is sent from the application when timeout occurs. The
recommended value is 3, that is, the request is transmitted 3 times during timeout.
Timeout is a period of time that an SNMP Manager waits for a response message from an agent.
The recommended value is 5 seconds. If multiple OIDs are provided in a single request (for
example, Get-Bulk operation) or multiple request are sent across slow network connections, the
wait time must be increased to allow the SNMP agent to respond to the request.
Maximum three clients are allowed, two for Brocade Network Advisor (active/passive) Management
application and one for external SNMP application.

Administrators Guide.

RFC 1213: MIB-II


Fully supported/deprecated object groups
The following groups from RFC 1213 are either fully supported or deprecated.
Object group name

OID

Supported?

system

1.3.6.1.2.1.1

Yes
NOTE: All systems must implement the System group. If an
agent is not configured to have a value for any of the
System group variables, a string of length 0 is
returned.

at

1.3.6.1.2.1.3

No
NOTE: Implementation of the Address Translation group is
mandatory for all systems. However, that this group
is deprecated by MIB-II. From MIB-II onward, each
network protocol group contains its own address
translation tables.

icmp

1.3.6.1.2.1.5

Yes
NOTE: Implementation of the ICMP group is mandatory for
all systems.

tcp

1.3.6.1.2.1.6

Yes
NOTE: Implementation of the TCP group is mandatory for
all systems that implement the TCP. Instances of
object types that represent information about a
particular TCP connection are transient; they persist
only as long as the connection in question.

udp

1.3.6.1.2.1.7

Yes
NOTE: Implementation of the UDP group is mandatory for
all systems that implement the UDP.

egp

1.3.6.1.2.1.8

No

transmission

1.3.6.1.2.1.10

No

snmp

snmp

Yes
NOTE: Implementation of the SNMP group is mandatory for
all systems that support an SNMP protocol entity.
Some of the objects defined next are zero-valued in
those SNMP implementations that are optimized to
support only those functions specific to either a
management agent or a management station. All of
the objects that follow refer to an SNMP entity, and
there might be several SNMP entities residing on a
managed node (for example, if the node is acting as
a management station).
snmpInBadTypes and snmpOutReadOnlys are not
supported.

RFC 4133: Entity MIB


Entity MIB is the module for representing multiple logical entities supported by a single SNMP
agent.

Textual conventions for Entity MIB


PhysicalIndex
Arbitrary value that uniquely identifies the physical entity. Value should be a small positive integer;
index values for different physical entities are not necessarily contiguous.
Syntax

20

Fabric OS MIB Reference


53-1004120-02

RFC 4133: Entity MIB

Integer (1... 2147483647)

PhysicalClass
An enumerated value that provides an indication of the general hardware type of a particular
physical entity. There are no restrictions as to the number of entPhysicalEntries of each
entPhysicalClass, which must be instantiated by an agent.
Syntax
Integer
Table 6 lists the possible values for PhysicalClass.

TABLE 6

Possible values for PhysicalClass

Values

Description

other (1)

The physical entity class is known but does not match any of the supported values.

unknown (2)

The physical entity class is unknown to the agent.

chassis (3)

The physical entity class is an overall container for networking equipment. Any class of
physical entity except a stack can be contained within a chassis, and a chassis might be
contained only within a stack.

backplane (4)

The physical entity class is a device for aggregating and forwarding networking traffic, such
as a shared backplane in a modular Ethernet switch. Note that an agent might model a
backplane as a single physical entity, which is actually implemented as multiple discrete
physical components (within a chassis or stack).

container (5)

The physical entity class is capable of containing one ore more removable physical entities,
possibly of different types (such as a chassis slot or daughter-card holder). For example, each
(empty or full) slot in a chassis is modeled as a container. Note that all removable physical
entities should be modeled within a container entity, such as field-replaceable modules, fans,
or power supplies. Note that all known containers, including empty containers, should be
modeled by the agent.

powerSupply (6)

The physical entity class is a power-supplying component.

fan (7)

The physical entity class is a fan or other heat-reduction component.

sensor (8)

The physical entity class is a sensor, such as a temperature sensor within a router chassis.

module (9)

The physical entity class is a self-contained subsystem (such as a plug-in card or


daughter-card). If it is removable, then it should be modeled within a container entity;
otherwise, it should be modeled directly within another physical entity (for example, a chassis
or another module).

port (10)

The physical entity class is a networking port, capable of receiving or transmitting networking
traffic.

stack (11)

The physical entity class is a super-container (possibly virtual), intended to group together
multiple chassis entities (such as a stack of multiple chassis entities). A stack might be
realized by a virtual cable or a real interconnect cable attached to multiple chassis, or it can
comprise multiple interconnect cables. A stack should not be modeled within any other
physical entities, but a stack might be contained within another stack. Only chassis entities
should be contained within a stack.

SnmpEngineIdOrNone
A specially formatted SnmpEngineID string for use with the Entity MIB.

Fabric OS MIB Reference


53-1004120-02

21

RFC 4133: Entity MIB

If an instance of an object with syntax SnmpEngineIdOrNone has a non-zero length, then the object
encoding and semantics are defined by the SnmpEngineID textual convention. (Refer to RFC 2571
for details)
If an instance of an object with syntax SnmpEngineIdOrNone contains a zero-length string, then no
appropriate SnmpEngineID is associated with the logical entity (that is, SNMPv3 not supported).

For the Brocade 3016 or Brocade 4020 blades, the snmpEngineID takes the UUID value. For
example, if the UUID value is A9914D56-1E5A-0E59-C51E-528802B06E4F, the snmpEngineID
displays 80.00.06.34.B1.A9.91.4D.56.1E.5A.0E.59.C5.1E.52.88.02.B0.6E.4F (hex)

For other switches, the snmpEngineID takes the WWN. For example, if the WWN value is
10:00:00:05:1e:35:d5:ee, the snmpEngineID displays
80.00.06.34.B2.10.00.00.05.1E.35.D5.EE (hex)

If the WWN cannot be taken, the snmpEngineID takes the IP address + port number along with
the private enterprise number and algorithm type used. An example of this type of
snmpEngineID would be 00.00.06.34.00.00.00.A1.0A.20.93.CA (hex)
Syntax
OCTET STRING (SIZE(0..32)) Empty string or SnmpEngineID

This is the trap recipient associated with the community. If a new value
is set successfully, it takes effect immediately.
If not otherwise set, the default IP address for this trap recipient is
0.0.0.0 and the SNMP trap is not sent for the associated community
string.
With a setting of non-0.0.0.0 IP address, SNMP traps are sent to the
host with the associated community string.
Any or all of the trap recipients can be configured to send a trap for the
associated community string. The maximum number of trap recipients
that can be configured is six. If no trap recipient is configured, no traps
are sent.
The trap recipient IP address should be part of the Access Control List
for Fabric OS.(refer to the Fabric OS Command Reference and the
snmpConfig command for more information).

This is the trap severity level associated with swAgtTrapRcp.


The trap severity level, is in conjunction with the events severity level.
When an event occurs, and if its severity level is at or below the set
value, the SNMP trap is sent to configure trap recipients. The severity
level is limited to particular events. If a new value is set successfully, it
takes effect immediately.
This object obsoletes swEventTrapLevel.

FICON MIB overview


The FICON MIB module (LINK-INCIDENT-MIB) defines support for FICON in Fabric OS. This MIB
addresses link incident and link failure data for FICON hosts and devices connected to a Brocade
switch.
The object types in the FICON MIB are organized into the following groupings and the descriptions
of these MIB variables come directly from the FICON MIB:

Request Node Identification Data (RNID)


Link Incident Record Registration (LIRR)
Registered Link Incident Report (RLIR)
Traps

SNMP traps for FICON


SNMP traps for FICON are generated when:

A FICON device is added to the switch


A FICON device is removed from the switch
A new listener is added (once the LIRR handshake is complete)
A listener entry is deleted
A link incident occurs

Textual conventions
Table 35 lists the textual conventions for the FICON MIB.

Fabric OS MIB Reference


53-1004120-02

Object and OID

Access

Description

uNumber
1.3.6.1.3.94.1.1

Read only

The number of connectivity units present on this system (represented by


this agent). Might be a count of the boards in a chassis or the number of
full boxes in a rack.
The connectivity unit is mapped to a switch. uNumber is always set to
one.

systemURL
1.3.6.1.3.94.1.2

Read only

The top-level URL of the system; if it does not exist, the value is an empty
string. The URL format is implementation dependant and can have
keywords embedded that are preceded by a percent sign (for example,
%USER).The following are the defined keywords that are recognized and
replaced with data during a launch.
USER Replace with username
PASSWORD Replace with password
GLOBALID Replace with global ID
SERIALNO Replace with serial number
The expected value for system URL.0 is:
http://{a.b.c.d}
where {a.b.c.d} is the IP address of the switch if a Web Tools license is
available.
(null)
where is used when a Web Tools license is not available.

connUnitTable
1.3.6.1.3.94.1.6

Not
accessible

A list of units under a single SNMP agent. The number of entries is given
by the value of uNumber. The value is 1 for stand-alone system.

connUnitEntry
1.3.6.1.3.94.1.6.1

Not
accessible

A connectivity unit entry containing objects for a particular unit.

connUnitId
1.3.6.1.3.94.1.6.1.1

Read only

This object indicates the WWN of the switch.


The Brocade implementation maps the switch WWN to the first 8 octets
of this object and sets the remaining 8 octets to 0.

85

Connectivity unit group

TABLE 41
Object and OID

Access

Description

connUnitGlobalId
1.3.6.1.3.94.1.6.1.2

Read only

An optional global-scope identifier for this connectivity unit. It must be a


WWN for this connectivity unit or 16 octets of value 0.
The following characteristics are required.
WWN formats requiring fewer than 16 octets must be extended to
16 octets with trailing 0 octets.
If a WWN is used for connUnitId, the same WWN must be used for
connUnitGlobalId.
When a non-zero value is provided, the following characteristics are
strongly recommended.
It should be persistent across agent and unit resets.
It should be globally unique.
It should be one of these FC-PH/PH3 formats:
IEEE (NAA=1)
IEEE Extended (NAA=2)
IEEE Registered (NAA=5)
IEEE Registered extended (NAA=6)
Use of the IEEE formats allows any IEEE-registered vendor to assure
global uniqueness independently. The following are some references on
IEEE WWN formats:
http://standards.ieee.org/regauth/oui/tutorials/fi
breformat.html
http://standards.ieee.org/regauth/oui/tutorials/fi
brecomp_id.html
If one or more WWNs are associated with the connUnit through other
management methods, one of them should be used for
connUnitGlobalId.
If a WWN is not assigned specifically to the connUnit, there is some
merit to using a WWN assigned to (one of) its permanently attached
FC/LAN interfaces. This cannot risk uniqueness, though.
As a counterexample, if your agent runs in a host and the host has an
HBA, it is quite possible that agent, host, and HBA are all distinct
connUnits, so the host and agent cannot use the WWN of the HBA.
If your hub has a built-in Ethernet port, it might be reasonable for the
hub to use its LAN address (prefixed with the appropriate NAA) as its
connUnitId. But if the Ethernet is a replaceable PCCard, the hub should
have an independent ID.
The Brocade implementation maps the switch WWN to the top 8 octets
of this variable and sets the remaining lower 8 octets to 0.
For example:
If Brocades switch WWN is 10:0:0:60:69:10:02:18, then use the SNMP
GET command on
connUnitGlobalId.10.0.0.60.69.10.02.18.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0 returns:
10 00 00 60 69 10 02 18 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00

connUnitType
1.3.6.1.3.94.1.6.1.3

The World Wide Name of the port, if applicable; otherwise, an empty


string.
This is in IEEE Extended format, and the extension contains the internal
port number of each port.
NOTE: The internal port number is 1 less than the port index. For
example, if the switch has WWN 10:00:00:60:69:10:02:18, then
port numbers 0 and 6 have WWN 20:00:00:60:69:10:02:18 and
20:06:00:60:69:10:02:18, respectively. However, the embedded

switch.

connUnitPortFCId
1.3.6.1.3.94.1.10.1.11

Read only

This is the assigned Fibre Channel ID of the port. If the port does not
have a Fibre Channel address, this object return all bits set to 1.
For an F_Port, this is the Fibre Channel ID to which the connected
N_Port is assigned. For an FL_Port, this is the Fibre Channel ID of the
FL_Port. For a U or E_Port, this is similar to F_Port.
The FC ID is formatted DD AA PP (for example, 02 00 02). The
Brocade Access Gateway port FC ID differs from a Fibre Channel switch.
A Fibre Channel switch port FC ID has the same DD with a different AA
value for each link. The Brocade Access Gateway PP is the port
number for F_Ports and is always zero for N_Ports. Therefore the N_Port
FC ID always appears as DD AA 00 (for example, 02 00 00). On a
Brocade Access Gateway the FC ID of different ports can have the same
AA value but different DD values and vice versa.

Transitioning from online to offline.
A request (NON-PARTICIPATING) command to the loop port state
machine.
Removal of the port from an arbitrated loop by a hub.
unbypassConnUnitPort
If the addressed connUnit allows this operation to be performed to this
port, the addressed port performs a vendor-specific unbypass
operation. Examples of these operations are:
The Link Failure protocol.
A request (PARTICIPATING) command to the loop port state
machine.
Addition of the port to an arbitrated loop by a hub.
offlineConnUnitPort
If the addressed connUnit allows this operation to be performed to this
port, the addressed port performs a vendor-specific offline operation.
Examples of these operations are:
Disabling a port's transceiver.
The Link Failure protocol.
Request (NON-PARTICIPATING) command to the loop port state
machine removal of the port from an arbitrated loop by a hub.
onlineConnUnitPort
If the addressed connUnit allows this operation to be performed to this

This table contains the 1024 most-recent event log entries.
Only external RASlog messages are supported. Fabric OS 4.4.0 and later
releases do not have Panic or Debug level messages. All external

Read only

The connUnitId of the connectivity unit that contains this event table.
Same as connUnitId.

connUnitEventIndex
1.3.6.1.3.94.1.11.1.2

Read only

Each connectivity unit has its own event buffer. As it wraps, it might write
over previous events. This object is an index into the buffer. It is
recommended that this table is read using getNexts to retrieve the
initial table. The management application should read the event table at
periodic intervals and then determine if any new entries were added by
comparing the last known index value with the current highest index
value. The management application should then update its copy of the
event table. If the read interval is too long, it is possible that there might
be events that might not be contained in the agent's internal event
buffer.
An agent might read events 50-75.
At the next read interval, connUnitEventCurrID is 189. If the
management application tries to read event index 76 and the agent's
internal buffer is 100 entries maximum, event index 76 is no longer
available.
The index value is an incrementing integer starting from 1 every time
there is a table reset. On table reset, all contents are emptied and all
indices are set to 0. When an event is added to the table, the event is
assigned the next-higher integer value than the last item entered into
the table. If the index value reaches its maximum value, the next item
entered causes the index value to roll over and start at 1 again.
Mapped to swEventIndex.

connUnitEventId
1.3.6.1.3.94.1.11.1.3

Read only

The internal event ID. Incriminated for each event, ranging between 0
and connUnitMaxEvents. Not used as table index to simplify the agent
implementation. When this reaches the end of the range specified by
connUnitMaxEvents, the ID rolls over to start at 0. This value is set back
to 0 at reset. The relationship of this value to the index is that internal
event ID might represent a smaller number than a 32-bit integer (for
example, maximum 100 entries) and would only have a value range up
to connUnitMaxEvents.
NOTE: This object is obsoleted.

Description

connUnitLinkTable
1.3.6.1.3.94.1.12

Not
accessible

A list of links known to this agent from this connectivity unit to other
connectivity units- X is switch data and Y is other end.
The link table is intended to organize and communicate any information
the agent has that might assist a management application to discover
the connectivity units in the framework and the topology of their
interconnect- the goal is to assist the management application by
mapping the elements of the framework in addition to listing them.
With this goal, the agent should include as much as it possesses about
any links from its own connectivity units to others, including links among
its own units.
An agent should include partial information about links if it is not able to
fully define them in accord with the following structure; however, the
information must include either a nonzero connUnitNodeIdor a
nonzero connUnitPortWwnfor each end of the link.
If the agent is able to discover links that do not directly attach to
members of its agency and its discovery algorithm gives some
assurance that the links are recently valid, it might include these links.
Link information entered by administrative action might be included
even if not validated directly if the link has at least one endpoint in this
agency, but it should not be included otherwise.
A connectivity unit should fill the table in as best it can. One of the
methods to fill this in would be to use the RNID ELS command (ANSI
document 99-422v0). This command queries a port for the information
needed for the link table.
This table is accessed either directly, if the management software has
an index value, or using getNext. The values of the indexes are not
required to be contiguous. Each entry created in this table is assigned
an index. This relationship is kept persistent until the entry is removed
from the table or the system is reset. The total number of entries is
defined by the size of the table.
For an entry to be considered valid, both the X (local) and the Y (remote)
values need to have one valid value.
A Brocade Access Gateway has no ISLs (InterSwitch Links); therefore all
F_Port and N_Port connections display in ag --show for online F_Ports.
Dedicated ISL DISL
An ISL physically connected between two
virtual switches belonging to same VF ID. A
DISL is dedicated to carry frames only related
to VF ID of connected virtual switches.
Extended ISL XISL
A XISL belongs to the base fabric and by
default carries frames of the base fabric and
for other fabrics using the encapsulation and
IFR header.
Logical ISL
LISL
A virtual link between 2 virtual switches that is
used for control frames. LISL might not map
directly to a single physical ISL depending on
topology.

Statistics group
The port types are aggregated into a port type class, such as all the fabric port types.
Each individual port has only one statistics table. For all objects in the statistics table, if the object
is not supported by the conn unit, then the high order bit is set to 1, with all other bits set to 0 (for
example, the last eight bytes of the returned value might be: 80 00 00 00 00 00 00 00).
The high order bit is reserved to indicate whether the object is supported. All objects start at a
value of 0 at hardware initialization and continue incrementing until 18,446,744,073,709,551,615
bits and then wrap to 0.
This is the case for all Class 1 Frames; Brocade does not support them.

affected by latency. This parameter is sampled
at intervals of 2.5 microseconds, and the
counter is incremented if the condition is true.
Each sample represents 2.5 microseconds of
time with zero Tx BB Credit. An increment of
this counter means that the frames could not
be sent to the attached device for
2.5 microseconds, indicating degraded
performance.
