Intel Express 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch
SNMP and MIB Support
The Express 10/100 Switch contains a built-in SNMP agent running
on the SNMP processor board. This allows each Express 10/100
Switch to be managed from a centralized management station via any
SNMP-compliant NMS.
The SNMP agent software complies with the following standards:
RFC 1155, The Structure of Management Information (SMI) for
TCP/IP Based Internets, 5/90.
RFC 1556, Management Information Base (MIB) for Network
Managers of TCP/IP Based Internets, 5/90.
RFC 1557, The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP),
5/90.
RFC 1213, The Management Information Base II (MIB II), 3/91.
RFC 1643, Definitions of Managed Objects for the Ethernet-like
Interface Types.
RFC 1573, Evolution of the Interfaces Group of MIB-II, 1/94.
RFC 1493, Definitions of Managed Objects for Bridges, 7/93.
RFC 793, Transmission Control Protocol.
RFC 854, Telnet Protocol Specification.
RFC 1055, Nonstandard for transmission of IP datagrams over
serial lines: SLIP, 1/88.
The SNMP agent uses UDP/IP (RFC 768, RFC 950, RFC 1071 and
RFC 791) as OSI layers 3 and 4 protocols, and ICMP (RFC 792) and
ARP (RFC 826) to complete the UDP/IP protocol suite.
The UDP/IP stack implementation is conformant to:
RFC 1122, Requirements for Internet hosts, communication
layers.
RFC 1123, Requirements for Internet hosts, application and
support.
You can manage the Express 10/100 Switch with any SNMP Manager
that conforms to the above standards.
The Express 10/100 Switch implements an Intel Enterprise MIB.
