Embodiment Construction

[0016] The MIB-MIB table is only a rough representation of its structure, and its specific content depends on its specific MIB type.

[0017] Before the SNMP network management station accesses a member device and wants to obtain its MIB information, it queries the MIB-MIB table of the member device agent according to the MIB name to obtain the corresponding version number of the MIB; The version number of the corresponding management operation.

[0018] If a new member device is added to the system and its MIB is upgraded, the agent of the member device will make corresponding modifications to the MIB-MIB table, and then put the corresponding version object of the MIB in the MIB-MIB version table Change to the new version number. And, upgrade the management station accordingly. In this way, the management station can distinguish the version of the MIB supported by the agent according to the MIB version object. The new device is now managed.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method of harmonizing the MIB versions between the SNMP management station and agent, including the steps: establishing a MIB as to MIB, namely MIB-MIB, establishing a corresponding MIB-MIB list in the agent to record each MIB name supported by the agent and corresponding version number; before SNMP network management station accesses some member device to get its MIB information, according to the MIB name, searching the MIB-MIB list of its device agent to get corresponding MIB version number; the SNMP network management station makes corresponding management operation according to the MIB version number of the member above mentioned. It effectively promotes the development and application of SNMP network management technique. If the system need set new member devices, even if their MIB version numbers are different from those of the other devices, it has no effect on the access of the management station to them. It does not depend on other auxiliary means but SNMP.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for coordinating MIB versions between SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) management stations and agents. Background technique [0002] Simple Network Management Protocol SNMP is a set of network management protocols defined by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). The protocol has become the de facto industry standard in network management and has been widely accepted and applied. [0003] SNMP adopts a special form of Client / Server model: agent / management station model. The management and maintenance of the network is completed through the interaction between the SNMP network management station and the SNMP agent. Each agent is responsible for answering various queries or operations of the management station on MIB (Management Information Base) defined information. SNMP network management station is a software system used by administrators. It is mainly responsible for sending network management comman...
