Network management
 Network operators need tools to monitor and manage
networks remotely.
 True even if the network is relatively small.
 Examples:
 How many IP fragments did this router create?
 How long has the server been running?
 Which host is about to shutdown?
 Types of management
 Performance
 Fault
Network management architecture
Components of the network
management architecture

Managing entity is the central management station within the network:
“the administrator’s console”

Managed device is the machine we’re interested in monitoring /
controlling

Managed objects are pieces of hardware within the managed device, e.g.
network interface card, and the set of configurations for hardward and
software

Management Information Base (MIB) is the information of interest
related to managed objects, e.g. routing table

Network management agent is a program that runs on the managed
device which communicates with the managing entity.

Network management protocol is the protocol used between the agent
and the managing entity
Four parts of SNMP
1. Network management objects
 Management Information Base (MIB)
 This is the value that we’re interested in
monitoring or controlling.
 A MIB module is a collection of related MIBs.
2. Data definition language
 Structure of Management Information (SMI)
 This defines the format of MIBs such as data
type and object model.
Four parts of SNMP
3. Protocol


Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
This is the protocol used between the managing
entity and the agent.
4. Security and administration capabilities
 MIB and SMI are independent of the
protocol. The protocol is independent of
MIB and SMI.
SMI
 SMI is used to define the syntax and
semantics of management objects.
 It defines basic data types and higher level
constructs, such as OBJECT-TYPE and
MODULE-TYPE.
 SMI is a subset of ASN.1 (Abstract Syntax
Notation 1), which adopts a
{machine,OS,language}-independent
method for describing data and rules for
transmitting that data
SMI basic data types
SMI OBJECT-TYPE
ipForwDatagrams OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX Counter
ACCESS read-only
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"The number of input datagrams for which this
entity was not their final IP destination, as a
result of which an attempt was made to find a
route to forward them to that final destination.
In entities which do not act as IP Gateways, this
counter will include only those packets which were
Source-Routed via this entity, and the SourceRoute option processing was successful."

Object Identifier (OID)
MIB module
Organization of managed
objects

.
Organized in a tree-like
hierarchy
root
iso(1)

Each node is named with
an OID.

OIDs reflect the structure
of the hierarchy.
org (3)
dod (6)
internet (1)


The OID 1.3.6.1.2.1
(iso.org.dod.internet.mgm
t.mib-2) is at the top of
the hierarchy for all
managed objects of the
MIB-II.
directory (1)
experimental (3)
private (4)

Manufacturers of
networking equipment can
add product specific
objects to the hierarchy.

MIBs
 A MIB specifies the managed objects, which have
OIDs.
 The OID is specified in a MIB file.
 In Linux, MIB files are in the directory
/usr/share/snmp/mibs
 Multiple MIB files
 MIB-II (defined in RFC 1213) defines the managed
objects of TCP/IP networks
 When an SNMP manager requests an object, it sends
the OID to the SNMP agent.
UDP Example
SNMP Protocol
 SNMP manager and an SNMP agent
communicate using the SNMP protocol
 Generally: Manager sends queries and agent
responds
 Exception: Traps are initiated by agent.
Notice UDP port 161
SNMP message types
Traps
 Traps are messages that are asynchronously sent by
an agent to a manager
 Traps are triggered by an event
 Defined traps include:
 linkDown: Even that an interface went down
 coldStart - unexpected restart (i.e., system crash)
 warmStart - soft reboot
 linkUp - the opposite of linkDown
 (SNMP) AuthenticationFailure
