STANDARD-MIB(7)
✨ NAME ✨
STANDARD-MIB — the Erlang/OTP MIB module for SNMP standard datatypes, and honestly bestie this one is lowkey the blueprint for all the SNMP standard types 👑. It’s STANDARD-MIB(7) energy, no cap.
🫶 DESCRIPTION 🫶
okay so the whole definition block is below, and we are keeping it exactly as-is because MIB syntax does not play about spelling, punctuation, or vibes 💅. Every datatype, every OBJECT-TYPE, every counter, every comment — all of it stays verbatim. Think of this as the main character ASN.1 moment, fr fr 🦋.
STANDARD-MIB DEFINITIONS ::= BEGIN
IMPORTS
Counter, TimeTicks
FROM RFC1155-SMI
OBJECT-TYPE
FROM RFC-1212
DisplayString, mib-2
FROM RFC1213-MIB
;
-- Standard Datatypes
-- From SNMPv2 (rfc1903)
TruthValue ::=
-- Represents a boolean value
INTEGER { true(1), false(2) }
-- From SNMPv2 (rfc1903)
DateAndTime ::=
-- DESCRIPTION
-- "A date-time specification.
--
-- field octets contents range
-- 1 1-2 year 0..65536

sysDescr OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX DisplayString (SIZE (0..255))
ACCESS read-only
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"A textual description of the entity. This value
should include the full name and version
identification of the system's hardware type,
software operating-system, and networking
software. It is mandatory that this only contain
printable ASCII characters."
::= { system 1 }
sysObjectID OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX OBJECT IDENTIFIER
ACCESS read-only
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"The vendor's authoritative identification of the
network management subsystem contained in the
entity. This value is allocated within the SMI
enterprises subtree (1.3.6.1.4.1) and provides an
easy and unambiguous means for determining `what
kind of box' is being managed. For example, if
vendor `Flintstones, Inc.' was assigned the
subtree 1.3.6.1.4.1.4242, it could assign the
identifier 1.3.6.1.4.1.4242.1.1 to its `Fred
Router'."
::= { system 2 }
sysUpTime OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX TimeTicks
ACCESS read-only
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"The time (in hundredths of a second) since the
network management portion of the system was last
re-initialized."
::= { system 3 }
sysContact OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX DisplayString (SIZE (0..255))
ACCESS read-write
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"The textual identification of the contact person
for this managed node, together with information
on how to contact this person."
::= { system 4 }
sysName OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX DisplayString (SIZE (0..255))
ACCESS read-write
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"An administratively-assigned name for this
managed node. By convention, this is the node's
fully-qualified domain name."
::= { system 5 }
sysLocation OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX DisplayString (SIZE (0..255))
ACCESS read-write
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"The physical location of this node (e.g.,
`telephone closet, 3rd floor')."
::= { system 6 }
sysServices OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX INTEGER (0..127)
ACCESS read-only
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"A value which indicates the set of services that
this entity primarily offers.
The value is a sum. This sum initially takes the
value zero, Then, for each layer, L, in the range
1 through 7, that this node performs transactions
for, 2 raised to (L - 1) is added to the sum. For
example, a node which performs primarily routing
functions would have a value of 4 (2^(3-1)). In
contrast, a node which is a host offering
application services would have a value of 72
(2^(4-1) + 2^(7-1)). Note that in the context of
the Internet suite of protocols, values should be
calculated accordingly:
layer functionality
1 physical (e.g., repeaters)
2 datalink/subnetwork (e.g., bridges)
3 internet (e.g., IP gateways)
4 end-to-end (e.g., IP hosts)
7 applications (e.g., mail relays)
For systems including OSI protocols, layers 5 and
6 may also be counted."
::= { system 7 }
-- the SNMP group
-- Implementation of the SNMP group is mandatory for all
-- systems which support an SNMP protocol entity. Some of
-- the objects defined below will be zero-valued in those
-- SNMP implementations that are optimized to support only
-- those functions specific to either a management agent or
-- a management station. In particular, it should be
-- observed that the objects below refer to an SNMP entity,
-- and there may be several SNMP entities residing on a
-- managed node (e.g., if the node is hosting acting as
-- a management station).

::= { snmp 11 }okay so we're still in the object list, and every single one below keeps its exact SYNTAX, ACCESS, STATUS, and OID. no cap bestie 💖
snmpInGenErrs—OBJECT-TYPE;SYNTAX Counter;ACCESS read-only;STATUS mandatory;::= { snmp 12 }. This one counts the total number of SNMP PDUs delivered to the SNMP protocol entity where the error-status field isgenErr. literally the genErr receipts 💀snmpInTotalReqVars—OBJECT-TYPE;SYNTAX Counter;ACCESS read-only;STATUS mandatory;::= { snmp 13 }. Counts the total number of MIB objects retrieved successfully by the SNMP protocol entity as a result of receiving valid SNMP Get-Request and Get-Next PDUs. success receipts, we love to see it ✨snmpInTotalSetVars—OBJECT-TYPE;SYNTAX Counter;ACCESS read-only;STATUS mandatory;::= { snmp 14 }. Counts the total number of MIB objects altered successfully by the SNMP protocol entity as a result of receiving valid SNMP Set-Request PDUs. set it and forget it 💅snmpInGetRequests—OBJECT-TYPE;SYNTAX Counter;ACCESS read-only;STATUS mandatory;::= { snmp 15 }.

The total number of SNMP Get-Next PDUs accepted and processed by the SNMP protocol entity. next bestie, not ex bestie 🦋snmpInSetRequests—OBJECT-TYPE;SYNTAX Counter;ACCESS read-only;STATUS mandatory;::= { snmp 17 }. The total number of SNMP Set-Request PDUs accepted and processed by the SNMP protocol entity. setting the vibe, periodt 🌸snmpInGetResponses—OBJECT-TYPE;SYNTAX Counter;ACCESS read-only;STATUS mandatory;::= { snmp 18 }. The total number of SNMP Get-Response PDUs accepted and processed by the SNMP protocol entity. response era 💌snmpInTraps—OBJECT-TYPE;SYNTAX Counter;ACCESS read-only;STATUS mandatory;::= { snmp 19 }. The total number of SNMP Trap PDUs accepted and processed by the SNMP protocol entity. traps incoming, stay calm 😭snmpOutTooBigs—OBJECT-TYPE;SYNTAX Counter;ACCESS read-only;STATUS mandatory;::= { snmp 20 }. The total number of SNMP PDUs generated by the SNMP protocol entity where the error-status field istooBig. too big to function honestly 💀snmpOutNoSuchNames—OBJECT-TYPE;SYNTAX Counter;ACCESS read-only;STATUS mandatory;::= { snmp 21 }. The total number of SNMP PDUs generated by the SNMP protocol entity where the error-status isnoSuchName. not found, not the vibe 🙈snmpOutBadValues—OBJECT-TYPE;SYNTAX Counter;ACCESS read-only;STATUS mandatory;::= { snmp 22 }. The total number of SNMP PDUs generated by the SNMP protocol entity where the error-status field isbadValue. bad value said absolutely not 😤
💀 -- { snmp 23 } is not used — yes bestie, slot 23 is literally empty. not me checking it twice 🙈
snmpOutGenErrs—OBJECT-TYPE;SYNTAX Counter;ACCESS read-only;STATUS mandatory;::= { snmp 24 }. The total number of SNMP PDUs generated by the SNMP protocol entity where the error-status field isgenErr. general error energy, unfortunately 🌧️snmpOutGetRequests—OBJECT-TYPE;SYNTAX Counter;ACCESS read-only;STATUS mandatory;::= { snmp 25 }. The total number of SNMP Get-Request PDUs generated by the SNMP protocol entity. outgoing asks, we're nosy 💅snmpOutGetNexts—OBJECT-TYPE;SYNTAX Counter;ACCESS read-only;STATUS mandatory;::= { snmp 26 }. The total number of SNMP Get-Next PDUs generated by the SNMP protocol entity. next next next 🎀snmpOutSetRequests—OBJECT-TYPE;SYNTAX Counter;ACCESS read-only;STATUS mandatory;::= { snmp 27 }.

The total number of SNMP Trap PDUs generated by the SNMP protocol entity. outgoing traps, stay safe 😭snmpEnableAuthenTraps—OBJECT-TYPE;SYNTAX INTEGER { enabled(1), disabled(2) };ACCESS read-write;STATUS mandatory;::= { snmp 30 }. Tells you whether the SNMP agent process is permitted to generate authentication-failure traps. The value of this object overrides any configuration information, so it's the switch that can disable all authentication-failure traps. Note: it is strongly recommended that this object be stored in non-volatile memory so it remains constant between re-initializations of the network management system. non-volatile memory is the vibe, no cap 💖coldStart—TRAP-TYPE;ENTERPRISE snmp;::= 0. AcoldStarttrap means the sending protocol entity is reinitializing itself such that the agent's configuration or the protocol entity implementation may be altered. cold open energy 🧊warmStart—TRAP-TYPE;ENTERPRISE snmp;::= 1. AwarmStarttrap means the sending protocol entity is reinitializing itself such that neither the agent configuration nor the protocol entity implementation is altered. cozy reboot, nothing changed 🌸authenticationFailure—TRAP-TYPE;ENTERPRISE snmp;::= 4. AnauthenticationFailuretrap means the sending protocol entity is the addressee of a protocol message that is not properly authenticated. While implementations of SNMP must be capable of generating this trap, they must also be capable of suppressing the emission of such traps via an implementation-specific mechanism. auth said no 😭
ENDmwah 💖 that's the whole page — source/version: Erlang/OTP / SNMP; page: STANDARD-MIB(7). the footer line is Erlang/OTP SNMP STANDARD-MIB(7) and no date is shown in this snippet, so I'm not inventing one bestie 🙈
