Chapter

Understanding Brocade SNMP

The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is an industry-standard method of monitoring and managing network devices. This protocol promotes interoperability, because SNMP-capable systems must adhere to a common set of framework and language rules.

Understanding the components of SNMP makes it possible to use third-party tools to view, browse, and manipulate Brocade switch variables (MIBs) remotely as well as to set up an enterprise-level management process. Every Brocade switch and director supports SNMP.

Setting the SNMP Security Level

Recipients for SNMP traps are restricted according to security levels. Security levels are selected and set for a switch using the snmpconfig --set seclevel command. To select and set SNMP security levels, issue the command snmpconfig --set seclevel after having logged in to the switch as admin.

The following example sets the SNMP security level to 1 (authentication only). This setting allows all snmpv1 users to perform GET and SET operations on mibs, but creates an exception for snmpv3 users that do not have authentication and privacy privileges (noAuthnoPriv).

switch:admin> snmpconfig --set seclevel Select SNMP Security Level (0 = No security, 1 = Authentication only, 2 = Authentication and Privacy, 3 = sxNo Access): (0..3) [0] Select SNMP SET Security Level (0 = No security, 1 = Authentication only, 2 = Authentication and Privacy, 3 = No Access): (0..3) [0]

Understanding SNMP Basics

Every Brocade switch carries an agent and management information base (MIB), as shown in

Figure 1. 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, setnext, and getresponse, are sent from the management station, and the agent replies once the value is obtained or modified ( Figure 2). 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.

Not allowed. Only SNMPv3 users with authPriv

privilege are allowed.

Not allowed. Not Sent.

53-1000602-02

Understanding SNMP Basics

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

The corresponding name is:

iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprise.bsci

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.

FIGURE 4 Brocade MIB Tree Location

Use a MIB browser to access the MIB variables: all MIB browsers perform queries and load 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:

• FibreAlliance (FA) MIB: Brocade supports version 3.0.

• Fabric Element (FE) MIB: accepted by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF).

Fabric OS MIB Reference 3 53-1000602-02

Understanding SNMP Basics

Once loaded, the MAX-ACCESS provides access levels between the agent and management station. The access levels are as follows:

• not-accessible

• read-create

• read-only - Public

• read-write - Private

Brocade supports FE_RCF2837.mib under the MIB-II branch in Fabric OS v6.1.0, v6.0.0, v4.x, v3.2.0, and v3.1.x and the experimental version, FE_EXP.mib, in Fabric OS v2.6.x and 3.0.x. This 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. Refer to “Loading Brocade MIBs” on page 6 for more information.

You cannot read or write to this variable.

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

You can only monitor information.

You can read or modify this variable.

Understanding SNMP 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. Up to six trap recipients can be configured using Web Tools or the snmpConfig command. 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.

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 SW-EXTTRA. You can use the snmpConfig command to disable the FA-MIB, HA-MIB, FICON-MIB, and SW_EXTTRA; but neither the SW-MIB or the FE-MIB can be disabled.

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

• connUnitSensorStatusChange

4 Fabric OS MIB Reference

53-1000602-02

Understanding SNMP Basics

• connUnitPortStatusChange

• connUnitEventTrap

The MIB-II system description swEventTrapLevel determines the output for the connUnitEventTrap. 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. Refer to the Fabric OS Command Reference for more information on this command.

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, etc).

• 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. fruHistoryTrap is not generated when standby CP is removed.

The high availability trap (HA-TRAP) can be configured to send traps using the snmpConfig command. Refer to the Fabric OS Command Reference for more information on this command.

SW Traps

There are six specific traps defined in Brocade SW-TRAP:

1. swfault (no longer supported)

2. swSensorScn (no longer supported)

3. swFCPortScn

This trap is generated by a port state change.

4. swEventTrap

This trap is generated by any switch event reported to the system error log.

5. swFabricWatchTrap

This trap is generated when any Fabric Watch threshold is reached.

6. swTrackChangesTrap

This trap is generated by a login or a logout.

The Brocade trap (SW-TRAP) can be configured to send traps using the snmpConfig command. Refer to the Fabric OS Command Reference for more information on this command.

Fabric OS MIB Reference 5 53-1000602-02

Loading Brocade MIBs

Object Instances

MIB objects are defined by the OID, which is the type of object, and by the instance number, which is an instance of that MIB object. A Fibre Channel port is a MIB object, and port 0 is an instance of that object. The following is an OID number and an instance number:

1.3.6.1.4.1.1588.2.1.1.1.6.2.1.11.5

where:

1.3.6.1.4.1.1588.2.1.1.1.6.2.1.11 is the OID (of swFCPortTxWords) and 5 is the instance

ID for port 4.

You must add 1 to the port number to get its instance number in SNMP because SNMP numbering starts at 1; switch port numbering starts at 0.

Loading Brocade MIBs

The Brocade MIB is a set of variables that are private extensions to the Internet standard MIB-II. The Brocade agents support many other Internet-standard MIBs. These standard MIBs are defined in RFC publications. To find specific MIB information, examine the Brocade proprietary MIB structure and the standard RFC MIBs supported by Brocade.

Brocade MIB Files

The Brocade MIB files are as follows:

• BRCD_v5_0.mib

• brcdfcip.mib

• CPQ_HOST.mib

• CPQ_RACK.mib

• ENTITY_RFC2737.mib

• FA_v3_0.mib

• fcip.mib

FA-MIB Yes The connUnitSnsTable is not supported because a switch in Access

Gateway does support name server services.

FE-MIB No Disabled in Access Gateway because the conventions are specific to

fabric switches.

CPQ-Rack MIB Limited Supported on embedded switches only.

FCIP MIB Limited Implemented to support WAN interfaces in Fabric OS v5.3.0

iSCSI MIB Limited Supports displaying information about virtual targets (VTs), iSCSI

sessions, and TCP connection tables, as derived from specific MIB tables

Firmware Upgrades and Enabled Traps

Prior to Fabric OS v4.4, traps were turned on and off as a group (for example, the SW-Trap, or FA-Trap). In these versions of the Fabric OS it was not possible to set individual traps (such as, swSensorStatusChangeTrap, swTrackChangesTrap, or connUnitEventTrap).

In Fabric OS v4.4 or above you can to turn on and off traps individually within a trap group. After the trap group is enabled, the individual traps need to be enabled explicitly.

Because the pre- Fabric OS v4.4 firmware only has trap group level settings, when you upgrade to the Fabric OS v4.4 firmware or above, individual traps are turned off by default even if the corresponding trap group was enabled before upgrading. When moving from a downlevel version to Fabric OS v4.4 or above you must use the snmpconfig command to turn on explicitly the individual traps within each trap group.

Support for Administrative Domains

Administrative Domains are supported in Fabric OS Version 5.3.0 and later releases. An Administrative Domain (AD) is a domain within a fabric. Administrative domains can be used to limit administrator access within a fabric, and to provide service providers with a means to assign portions of a fabric to individual consumers. An AD may contain switches, devices, and ports. An AD may also limit access to a configured set of users.

Support for Role Based Access Control

Role Based Access Control (RBAC) is supported in Fabric OS Version 5.3.0 and later releas 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.

Support for IP V6 Addressing

IP V6 addressing is supported in Fabric OS Version 5.3.0 and later releases.
