Components of a Network Management System Manager centralized collects, controls, and reports Managed entities

Simple Network Management Protocol Most popular version is SNMPv 1 SNMPv 2 exists, but no one uses it SNMPv 3 enhances admin and security SNMPv 1 defined in RFC 1157 Two popular books The Simple Book - M. Rose SNMP, SNMPv 2, SNMPv 3 and RMON 1 and 2 - W. Stallings 4

Structure of Management Information (SMI) Based on ASN. 1 Defines information in managed entity

Structure of Management Information (SMI) Based on ASN. 1 Defines information in managed entity Integer 32, Unsigned 32 IPaddress Counter 32, Counter 64 High level constructs 5

SMI Example ip. In. Delivers Object. Type SYNTAX Counter 32 MAX-ACCESS read-only STATUS current

SMI Example ip. In. Delivers Object. Type SYNTAX Counter 32 MAX-ACCESS read-only STATUS current DESCRIPTION "The total number of input datagrams successfully delivered to IP user-protocols (including ICMP). � : : = ( ip 9 ) 6

Management Information Base (MIB) Stores information of managed entity Values can be queried and

Management Information Base (MIB) Stores information of managed entity Values can be queried and often set using the network management protocol (SNMP) Many standard MIBs and many more private MIBs Objects arranged in MIB according to its Object ID (OID) 7

MIB Naming Format Uses ISO format Example Cisco� s MIB: 1. 3. 6. 1.

Remote Network Monitoring (RMON) RMON is a MIB for remote management of a network

Remote Network Monitoring (RMON) RMON is a MIB for remote management of a network as opposed to a single managed entity Probes collect and process information Standard RMON groups statistics, history, alarm, host. Top. N, matrix, filter, packet capture, event 11
