SNMP Management Features
SNMP management features provided by the Switch 212M and 224M include:
■ Security via configuration of SNMP communities
■ Event reporting via SNMP traps and RMON
■ Managing the switch with a network management tool such as HP Top-
Tools for Hubs & Switches
■ Monitoring data normally associated with the SNMP v2 agent (“Get”
operations). Supported Standard MIBs include:
• Bridge MIB (RFC 1493)
• Ethernet MAU MIB (RFC 1515)
• Interfaces Evolution MIB (RFC 1573)
• RMON MIB (RFC 1757)—etherstats, events, alarms, and history
• SNMP MIB-II (RFC 1213)
• Entity MIB (RFC 2037)
HP Proprietary MIBs include:
• Statistics for message and packet buffers, tcp, telnet, and timep
(netswtst.mib)
• Port counters, forwarding table, and CPU statistics (stat.mib)
• tftp download (downld.mib)
• Integrated Communications Facility Authentication Manager and
SNMP communities (icf.mib)
• HP ProCurve Switch 212M and 224M configuration (config.mib)
The switch SNMP agent also uses certain variables that are included in a
Hewlett-Packard proprietary MIB file you can add to the SNMP database
in your network management tool. You can copy the MIB file from the HP
TopTools for Hubs & Switches CD, shipped with your switch, or from
following World Wide Web site:

For more information, refer to the Customer Support/Warranty booklet
included with your switch.
