CTRON-ALIAS-MIB file content

The SNMP protocol is used to for conveying information and commands between agents and managing entities. SNMP uses the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) as the transport protocol for passing data between managers and agents. The reasons for using UDP for SNMP are, firstly it has low overheads in comparison to TCP, which uses a 3-way hand shake for connection. Secondly, in congested networks, SNMP over TCP is a bad idea because TCP in order to maintain reliability will flood the network with retransmissions.

Management information (MIB) is represented as a collection of managed objects. These objects together form a virtual information base called MIB. An agent may implement many MIBs, but all agents must implement a particular MIB called MIB-II [16]. This standard defines variables for things such as interface statistics (interface speeds, MTU, octets sent, octets received, etc.) as well as various other things pertaining to the system itself (system location, system contact, etc.). The main goal of MIB-II is to provide general TCP/IP management information.

ctAliasTable OBJECT-TYPE
        SYNTAX  SEQUENCE OF CtAliasEntry
        MAX-ACCESS   not-accessible
        STATUS  current
        DESCRIPTION
             "The ctAliasTable contains information about the aliases
             known by the agent.  This table is indexed using a unique
             and arbitrary ID and a TimeFilter to allow a management
             station to learn all alias entries that have been modified
             since time X.  This table is NOT designed to do a single
             GET.  This Table is designed for MIB Walks only.

             This table contains objects that map upper-layer 
             network services and entities to the physical location 
             of the associated port, and the MAC address of the
             associated end-system (node).

             All entries in this table are deleted when sysUpTime
             is reset to zero.

             This table allows for a time filtered view.  It is useful 
             for determining what has been modified in the Alias Table 
             since a specified time.

             If a management station reads the ctAliasTable
             of an entity at time X, subsequent updates can be 
             realized by performing get-next requests of this
             table to determine which entries have been modified 
             since time X. Then the management station can use
             GET requests to retrieve only the records of interest
             from the Alias table. 

             There is a delay between retrieving the Alias Reference 
             values from this table, and a GET request to retrieve a 
             modified row from the Alias table. The management 
             station should be prepared for two possibilities:
             1) the GET request may fail if the Alias table entry 
             has been deleted during the delay, and 2) the 
             entry may have been modified during the delay, so the
             modification time of the retrieved entry may differ from 
             the modification time of the Delta entry.

             If the entry in the Alias Control table identified by 
             ctAliasID is marked inactive by management request, and 
             subsequently deleted to free resources, all corresponding 
             entries in this table are also deleted.

             If the agent needs to free resources, it can delete
             entries from this table. It SHOULD first remove those
             which have been marked inactive in the ctAliasControlTable, 
             then it SHOULD remove those entries with the oldest 
             modification times."

             The possibility of ifIndex value re-assignment must be
             accommodated by a management application whenever the 
             value of sysUpTime is reset to zero.

             Since ifIndex values in different 'naming scopes' are 
             not related to one another, the interface to physical 
             component associations are relative to the same
