Warranty Policies
Warranty information is available in the Support section of the Miranda Web site
(www.miranda.com).
The purpose of this document is to provide an overview of the devices supported by iControl,
including specific details on available alarms and their parameters.
Overview
iControl is capable of monitoring and controlling a large and growing number of devices, that
fall into three categories:
The diagram below shows how each category interfaces with iControl:
Supported Devices
•routers
•SNMP devices
•special devices
Routers
Router manufacturers implement proprietary protocols to enable control of their equipment.
iControl’s Router Service uses custom Miranda drivers to communicate with various routers
using their native protocol. In addition to managing router control, the iControl Router Service
Supported Devices
SNMP Devices
is also able to publish router status and other information to the iControl GSM’s router plug-in.
This plug-in ins responsible for collecting, displaying, and updating router status in the GSM.
Some routers are also SNMP-enabled, and can send alarms to the iControl GSM. A specific
SNMP driver is available for each router type.
SNMP Devices
This broad category covers any hardware or software that is able to send SNMP traps. For each
supported device, an SNMP driver exists that enables some or all of the available SNMP
parameters to be captured and displayed in the GSM.
In some cases, iControl interfaces to a software application that itself is used to manage a
distinct set of equipment. The third party software, running on a PC or other hardware
controller, usually has an SNMP agent that can be configured to send status and/or alarm
messages. For each such agent, an SNMP driver exists that enables some or all of the available
SNMP parameters to be captured and made available via the GSM.
Special Devices
Where particularly complex devices are to be monitored by iControl, a Special Device service
exists to manage the flow of information.The status and alarm information from these devices
may use SNMP, HTTP or any of a number of other protocols. Custom drivers are available for
these multi-protocol devices, enabling custom GUI displays to be created within iControl.

HOST-RESOURCES MIB
The HOST‐RESOURCES MIB, developed by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), is for use in
managing host systems. The term host is construed to mean any computer that
communicates with other similar computers attached to the internet and that is directly used
by one or more human beings. Although this MIB does not necessarily apply to devices whose
primary function is communications services (e.g., terminal servers, routers, bridges,
monitoring equipment), such relevance is not explicitly precluded. This MIB instruments
attributes common to all internet hosts including, for example, both personal computers and
systems that run variants of Unix.
Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP)
The Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP), developed by the Internet Engineering Task
Force (IETF), is used by a gateway or destination host to communicate with a source host, for
example, to report an error in datagram processing.
MIB-II (RFC 1213)
RFC 1213, developed by the SNMP Working Group of the Internet Engineering Task Force
(IETF), defines the second version of the Management Information Base (MIB-II) for use with
network management protocols in TCP/IP-based internets. In particular, together with its
companion memos which describe the structure of management information (RFC 1155)
along with the network management protocol (RFC 1157) for TCP/IP-based internets, these
documents provide a simple, workable architecture and system for managing TCP/IP-based
internets and in particular the Internet community.

RMON (RFC 2819)
Remote Monitoring (RMON) is an Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) standard that enables
various network monitors and console systems to exchange monitoring data. It is used in
telecommunications equipment, such as routers, that implement a MIB (Management
Information Base) which supports remote monitoring. RMON uses an agent running on the
device being monitored to supply information over SNMP to a monitoring/control system (e.g.
iControl).
