Network Management (SNMP) : Raj Jain The Ohio State University Columbus, OH 43210 Jain@cse - Ohio-State - Edu

Uploaded by

The document discusses network management and the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). SNMP uses agents, managers, and a Management Information Base (MIB) to monitor network devices and components. It defines standard MIBs for network objects and uses Abstract Syntax Notation 1 (ASN.1) for encoding data. The document also covers SNMP commands, the structure of MIBs, SNMP message formats, and remote network monitoring with RMON.

SNMP
Based on Simple Gateway Management Protocol (SGMP) SNMP = Simply Not My Problem [Rose] Simple Network Management Protocol Only Five commands Command Meaning get-request Fetch a value get-next-request Fetch the next value (in a tree) get-response Reply to a fetch operation set-request Store a value trap An event

Management Information Base


MIBs follow a fixed naming and structuring convention Structure of Management Information (SMI) All names are unique All nodes of the name tree are assigned numeric values by standards authorities iso.org.dod.internet.mgmt.mib.ip.ipInReceives 1.3.6.1.2.1.4.3 Tables rows are referenced by appending the index

The Ohio State University

Raj Jain

MIB (Cont)
All names are specified using a subset of Abstract Syntax Notation (ASN.1) ASN.1 specifies notation (that humans can read) and encoding (representation and ranges) Only INTEGER, OCTET STRING, OBJECT IDENTIFIER, NULL types Only SEQUENCE, SEQUENCE OF, CHOICE constructors

MIB Definition: Example


ipAddrTable ::= SEQUENCE of ipAddrEntry ipAddrEntry ::= SEQUENCE { ipAdEntAddr ipAddress, ipAdEntIfIndex INTEGER, ipAdEntNetMask ipAddress, ipAdEntBcastAddr ipAddress, ipAdEntReasmMaxSize INTEGER (0..65535) } ipAddrEntry { ipAddrTable 1} ipAdEntNetMask {ipAddrTable 3}

SNMP Message Format


In ASN.1 Notation: SNMP-Message ::= SEQUENCE { version INTEGER {version-1 (0)}, community OCTET STRING, data ANY }

SNMP Message Types


SNMP-PDUs ::= CHOICE{ get-request GetRequest-PDU, get-next-request GetNextRequest-PDU, get-response GetResponse-PDU, set-request SetRequest-PDU, trap Trap-PDU }

Message Types (Cont)


GetRequestPDU ::= [0] IMPLICIT SEQUENCE{ request-id RequestID, error-status ErrorStatus, error-index ErrorIndex, variable-bindings VarBindList }

SNMPv2
Improved security: authentication and integrity using Data Encryption Standard (DES) inform request Multiple manager coordination Locking mechanisms prevent multiple managers from writing at the same time get bulk Better table handling Confirmation option for Traps Agents can ensure that trap was received correctly. New Error codes: noSuchName, badValue, readOnly Reference: RFC 1441

OSI Net Management Standards


Common Management Information Protocol (CMIP) Common Management Information Service (CMIS) CMIP is the management (application layer) protocol CMIS is the service interface to CMIP M-GET (read attribute), M-SET (write attribute), MEVENT-REPORT (report an event), M-ACTION (perform an action), M-CREATE (create an instance), M-DELETE (delete an instance)

Remote Network Monitoring


RMON Allows network managers to monitor the traffic on the network Network monitors/analyzers promiscuously monitor the LAN traffic RMON allows a central network management station to communicate with monitors throughout the network. RMON = Monitor MIB Allows remote control of monitors Allows multiple managers
