SNMP MIB Installation and Configuration


This chapter explains how to read and understand SNMP MIB as it relates to the Cisco ONS 15216 EDFA2. This chapter is a reference of all ONS 15216 EDFA2 SNMP commands that are used in a network management system (NMS). For provisioning the ONS 15216 EDFA2, see Chapter 4, "Provisioning Using ASH and SNMP".

5.1 SNMP Overview

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is an application-layer communication protocol that allows network devices to retrieve and modify the value of management information, as well as provide event notification to a NMS.

The ONS 15216 EDFA2 SNMP implementation uses proprietary and standard Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) MIBs to convey inventory, fault, and performance management information.

SNMP allows limited management of the ONS 15216 EDFA2 by a generic, third-party SNMP manager (for example, HP OpenView Network Node manager [NNM] or Open Systems Interconnection [OSI] NetExpert).

The ONS 15216 EDFA2 supports SNMP Version 1 (SNMPv1) and SNMP Version 2c (SNMPv2c) protocols.

5.1.1 SNMP Components

An SNMP-managed network consists of three primary components:

Managed devices

Agents

Management systems

A managed device is a network node that contains an SNMP agent and resides on an SNMP-managed network. Managed devices collect and store management information and use SNMP to make this information available to management systems that use SNMP. Managed devices include routers, access servers, switches, bridges, hubs, computer hosts, and network elements such as the ONS 15216 EDFA2.

5.1.2 ONS 15216 EDFA2 SNMP Elements

The following three SNMP elements are used with the ONS 15216 EDFA2:

SNMP agent

SNMP MIB

SNMP manager

The SNMP elements are shown in Figure 5-1.

Figure 5-1 SNMP Elements

5.1.2.1 SNMP Agent

An agent is an entity that assumes an operation role to receive, process, and respond to requests, as well as generated event reports. The SNMP agent gathers data from the MIB, which is the repository for device parameter and network data. To respond to requests, the agent must have network management information access. To generate reports, an agent must be notified of internal events.

Cisco provides both an SNMP agent (installed on the ONS 15216 EDFA2) and SNMP MIB to monitor the ONS 15216 EDFA2. The SNMP agent software and MIB are pre-installed on each module.

Figure 5-2 shows the relationship between the SNMP agent and the MIB.

Figure 5-2 SNMP Agent and MIB

5.1.2.2 SNMP MIB

The SNMP MIBs (CERENT-15216-EDFA-MIB.mib and CERENT-GLOBAL-REGISTRY.mib) are files written in ASN.1 syntax. The CERENT-15216-EDFA-MIB.mib specifies what ONS 15216 EDFA2 information needs to be controlled and monitored. This MIB is pre-installed on the SNMP agent and is accessible via the CLI.

The CERENT-15216-EDFA-MIB.mib and other MIBs can also be installed on a third-party SNMP manager located at a network management center. The SNMP manager at the network management center or the SNMP manager, accessible via the CLI, (see SNMP Manager) uses the SNMP MIBs to communicate with the SNMP agent.

5.1.2.3 SNMP Manager

The ONS 15216 EDFA2 comes with a pre-installed SNMP manager accessible via the CLI. This SNMP manager can be accessed and used to communicate with the SNMP agent that is also pre-installed on each ONS 15216 EDFA2. This manual displays examples of issuing SNMP commands to the amplifier using the built-in SNMP manager.

5.1.2.3.1 Third-party, Vendor-Specific SNMP Managers

SNMP managers from third-party vendors running on a separate computer located at a network management center are often used to manage network elements. If a third-party SNMP manager is used, it must be able to communicate with the SNMP agent pre-installed on the ONS 15216 EDFA2.

If a third-party SNMP manager is used, it is assumed that the SNMP manager is pre-installed prior to the SNMP MIB installation. Each vendor-specific SNMP manager has an unique set of instructions for SNMP MIB installation. For directions on loading the SNMP MIBs, refer to SNMP manager documentation.

Cisco does not provide or recommend a standard third-party SNMP manager.

5.1.3 SNMP MIBs and Message Types

SNMP operations can be quite powerful. A manager can retrieve or modify the value of management information accessible by an agent, an agent can report an event to a manager, and the manager can inform another manager of the value of management information on an agent. Using retrieval and modification operations, a manager can cause an agent to perform an action or execute a command. The manager can also create new and delete existing instances of management information.

A MIB is a hierarchically-organized collection of information. Network management protocols, such as SNMP, gain access to these MIBs. MIBs consist of managed objects and are identified by object identifiers (OID).

The ONS 15216 EDFA2 SNMP agent communicates with an SNMP management application (a third-party application or the built-in SNMP manager) using SNMP messages. Table 5-1 describes SNMP operation types.

Table 5-1 SNMP Operation Types

Operation
Description

get-request

Retrieves a value from a specific variable.

get-next-request

Retrieves the value following the named variable; this operation is often used to retrieve variables in a table. With this operation, an SNMP agent does not need to know the exact variable name. The SNMP manager searches sequentially to find the needed variable in the MIB.

get-response

The reply to a get-request, get-next-request, get-bulk-request, or set-request sent by an NMS.

get-bulk-request

Similar to a get-next-request, but this operation fills the get-response with up to the max-repetition number of get-next interactions.

trap

An unsolicited message sent by an SNMP agent to an SNMP manager indicating that an event has occurred.

set-request

Sets a value of a specific variable.


5.1.4 Command Syntax Using the SNMP Agent

Although Cisco has its own separate SNMP manager (Cisco Transport Manager [CTM]), management of the ONS 15216 EDFA2 is also possible using the built-in SNMP manager via the command line in the ASH shell, as described in SNMP Commands, page 6-15. The example commands and command syntax described in this manual are based on using the built-in ONS 15216 EDFA2 SNMP manager through the ASH shell CLI.

Commands can be issued via Telnet over a LAN or directly through the RS-232 (EIA/TIA-232) port on the module. (See .) After setting up a connection to the module and entering a password and user name, the following prompt appears:

ash:hostname:ONS15216 EDFA2>

To communicate with the module using SNMP, the command must begin with "snmp".


Note To view a list of possible SNMP operations, enter "snmp" followed by a space and press the Tab key. (See Example 5-1.)


Example 5-1 snmp Command Followed by the Tab Key

ash:hostname:ONS15216 EDFA2> snmp

Use these commands to set up community strings ( Enabling SNMP Remote Management Community Strings) and traps ( Setting Up Traps).

5.2 Enabling SNMP Remote Management Community Strings

SNMP communities are groupings of workstations and servers (or gateways) that can manage the ONS 15216 EDFA2. NMSs use SNMP communities to enforce security. SNMP enforces security through password-like community strings. Access to the SNMP agent and the ONS 15216 EDFA2 can be limited by both IP address and community string.

The CLI SNMP manager (local SNMP manager) must be used to setup remote management (via a Telnet connection or terminal server). A third-party, vendor-specific SNMP manager cannot be used to setup remote management.

The process for setting up community entries consists of:

Creating a View

Creating a Community Entry

The ONS 15216 EDFA2 has the two default community strings listed in Table 5-2.

Table 5-2 Default Community Strings

Community String
Default Privileges

public

read operations for all MIBs

private

read and write operations for all MIBs


The privileges assigned to the default strings can be modified or new communities with custom privileges can be created.

5.2.1 Creating a View

The following command describes how to set a view entry. A view defines and restricts the MIB attributes that a particular community can access. The view entry and the community entry are set to factory defaults. Users should consult with the Cisco TAC before modifying these settings.

5.2.1.1 Set View Entry

Command

snmp row set local cerent15216EdfaViewEntry

Syntax Description

snmp row set local cerent15216EdfaViewEntry view_index_# subtree

To create a community entry, a view must first be created. A MIB view can restrict the MIBs that a particular community can access. To create a view, type the command. view_index_# is an integer (1 to 2048) assigned to this view entry and subtree is the MIB subtree to which this view applies. Multiple view entries can be used for each view index.

This command creates a new row in the ViewEntry table. The SNMP manager prompts the user for each attribute.

To display a list of possible values, press the Spacebar followed by the Tab key. (See Example 5-3.)

Example 5-3 cerent15216EdfaViewEntry Set Command

ash:hostname:ONS15216 EDFA2> snmp row set local cerent15216EdfaViewEntry 1 cerent

cerent15216EdfaViewMask '0'H
cerent15216EdfaViewType included

cerent15216EdfaViewStatus createAndGo
ash:hostname:ONS15216 EDFA2> snmp row display local cerent15216EdfaViewEntry 1 sample
CLASS cerent15216Edfa-AGENT-MIB.cerent15216EdfaViewEntry ::=
{
cerent15216EdfaViewIndex = 1;
cerent15216EdfaViewSubtree = { sample };
cerent15216EdfaViewMask = '00'H;
cerent15216EdfaViewType = included;
cerent15216EdfaViewStatus = active;

Access to the ONS 15216 EDFA2 can be restricted by IP address or community string using this command.

Table 5-3 describes the command and MIB view prompts.

5.2.2 Creating a Community Entry

SNMP communities are groupings of workstations and servers (or gateways) that can manage the ONS 15216 EDFA2. NMSs use SNMP communities to enforce security. Because access to the SNMP agent is controlled by a community entry, every SNMP agent must be configured to recognize one or more community names, and to provide the appropriate level of access to managers according to the community name. The following commands describe the commands for displaying or setting community entries. Users should consult with the Cisco TAC before modifying these settings.

5.2.2.1 Set CommunityEntry

Command

snmp row set local cerent15216EdfaCommunityEntry

Syntax Description

snmp row set local cerent15216EdfaCommunityEntry community_index_#

After creating a view, use the snmp row set local cerent15216EdfaCommunityEntry command to create a community entry for that view.

The SNMP manager prompts the user for each attribute. Press the Spacebar and then the Tab key after a prompt to view possible data inputs ( Example 5-4). Refer to Table 5-4 for information concerning data for each prompt.

Example 5-4 cerent15216EdfaCommunityEntry Set Command

cerent15216EdfaPumpCfgConstPumpCurrent

Integer (0 to 300)

Read-write

Constant pump current (mA).

The current that is used when the pump control mode is changed to constCurrent.

cerent15216EdfaPumpCfgConstPumpPower

Integer (0 to 100)

Read-write

Constant pump power (mW). The power that is used when the control mode is changed to constPumpPower.

cerent15216EdfaPumpCfgConstOutPower

Integer (0 to 650)

Read-write

Constant output power (*10 mW). The power that is used when the control mode is changed to constOutputPower.


5.4.2.1 Changing the Pump Control Mode

For Constant Gain Temperature Compensated mode, the system automatically sets the second pump to this mode when either pump is set.

Constant Output Power mode is only valid for pump 2. If pump 2 is set to Constant Output Power Mode, pump 1 is automatically set to Constant Pump Power mode with a value of 75 mW.

For Constant Pump Current or Constant Pump Power mode, the user should set both pump modes to be the same.


Warning The pump control modes Constant Pump Current, Constant Pump Power, and Constant Output Power are to be used with very high precautions. They are service affecting and can reduce the life cycle of the lasers if used in extreme conditions. The factory default setting and recommended mode of operation is Constant Gain Temperature Compensated mode. Cisco recommends that users contact the Cisco TAC before changing from this mode of operation.


To set the ONS 15216 EDFA2 to Constant Pump Current mode, use the following steps:


Step 1 Set the pump value using cerent15216EdfaPumpCfgConstPumpCurrent attribute.

a. Select pump 1.

b. Set the value.

Step 2 Repeat Step 1 for pump 2.

Step 3 Set the pump mode of operation using cerent15216EdfaPumpCfgControlMode attribute.

a. Select pump 1.

b. Set the mode.

Step 4 Repeat Step 3 for pump 2.

Example 5-6 shows how to set the ONS 15216 EDFA2 to Constant Pump Current mode and then set it back to Constant Gain Temperature Compensated mode. (Setting pump 1 or 2 to Constant Gain Temperature Compensated mode sets both pumps to that mode.)

Example 5-6 Setting Mode to Constant Pump Current and then Back to Constant Gain Temperature Compensated

ash:hostname:ONS15216 EDFA2> snmp attribute set local cerent15216EdfaPumpCfgConstPumpCurrent 1 200

ash:hostname:ONS15216 EDFA2> snmp attribute set local cerent15216EdfaPumpCfgControlMode 1 constGainTempComp


5.4.2.2 Changing the Pump Control Value

To change the control value for Constant Gain Temperature Compensated mode, the user must set a new value of cerent15216EdfaConstGainOverallGain.

Constant Output Power Mode is only valid for pump 2. To change the control value for pump 2, the user must set the new value of cerent15216EdfaPumpCfgConstOutPower for pump 2 and then set the pump to Constant Output Power mode for the setting to take effect. Pump 1 is automatically set to Constant Pump Power mode with a value of 75 mW.

To change the control value for Constant Pump Current mode, the user must set new values of cerent15216EdfaPumpCfgConstPumpCurrent for both pumps and then set the pump control mode for both pumps for the setting to take effect.

To change the control value for Constant Pump Power mode, the user must set new values of cerent15216EdfaPumpCfgConstPumpPower for both pumps and then set the pump control mode for both pumps for the setting to take effect.

For example, to change the value for Constant Pump Current mode, use the following steps:


Step 1 Set the pump value using cerent15216EdfaPumpCfgConstPumpCurrent attribute.

a. Select pump 1.

b. Set the value.

Step 2 Repeat Step 1 for pump 2.

Step 3 Set the pump mode of operation using cerent15216EdfaPumpCfgControlMode attribute.

a. Select pump 1.

b. Set the mode.

Step 4 Repeat Step 3 for pump 2.

Example 5-7 shows how to set the value for Constant Pump Current mode to be 200 mA and then set the mode to Constant Pump Current mode again for the settings to take effect.

Example 5-7 Changing Value for Constant Pump Current Mode

ash:hostname:ONS15216 EDFA2> snmp attribute set local cerent15216EdfaPumpCfgConstPumpCurrent 1 200
ash:hostname:ONS15216 EDFA2> snmp attribute set local cerent15216EdfaPumpCfgConstPumpCurrent 2 200
ash:hostname:ONS15216 EDFA2> snmp attribute set local cerent15216EdfaPumpCfgControlMode 1 constCurrent
ash:hostname:ONS15216 EDFA2> snmp attribute set local cerent15216EdfaPumpCfgControlMode 2 constCurrent

Note The values in mW and microW units are measured values. The dBm units are converted from mW or microW to dBm, so theses values could be slightly different. If you take the cerent15216EdfaInPoweruW, convert it to dBm (10log(cerent15216EdfaInPoweruW)) and compare the value to the attribute cerent15216EdfaInPowerdBm, you will see a small difference. The difference is because of rounding error. The value cerent15216EdfaInPoweruW that is displayed on the screen has been rounded, but the value used in the calculation has more significant digits.


5.4.4 OverallControl Table

The cerent15216EdfaOverallControl table allows the user to display and configure overall gain and pre-attenuation. Table 5-9 describes cerent15216EdfaOverallControl variables.

Gain (*10 dB)

1 The value of the cerent15216EdfaPumpStatusGain variable should always be around 23 dB. This variable is the internal amplifier module gain. The cerent15216EdfaPumpStatusGain variable should not be confused with the cerent15216EdfaConstGainOverallGain variable that is used to set the gain of the ONS 15216 EDFA2. The cerent15216EdfaPumpStatusGain is the value of the gain of the amplification module only, it does not take into account the VOA (variable optical attenuator) attenuation. If you try to calculate the gain using the values of the PumpStatusOutPowerdBm - PumpStatusInPowerdBm you will not get the exact PumpStatusGain value. A more complex calculation is required to get the gain value. It needs to take ASE (amplified spontaneous emission) into account. This is often called the amplifier noise. This variable will be more dominant when the input power to the amplifier is low.


5.4.6 AlarmEntry Table

The cerent15216EdfaAlarmEntry table is used to display alarm status. The associated table command provides a summary of all alarms. Table 5-11describes the cerent15216EdfaAlarmEntry table variables.

5.6.7.2 Loss of Output Power Alarm Setpoint

5.6.7.2.1 LpoutSetpoint

Command

snmp attribute get local cerent15216EdfaLpoutSetpoint

Syntax Description

snmp attribute get local cerent15216EdfaLpoutSetpoint

This attribute notifies network operations personnel notification if the output power of the ONS 15216 EDFA2 drops below a level that impacts proper operation of the optical network.

Typically, network operations personnel should set the loss of output power alarm threshold at a value that is appropriate for the intended network application so that the alarm condition is meaningful. Consult with the Cisco TAC to determine threshold value for your application. As a guideline, Cisco recommends that loss of output power alarm threshold value be set at 1 dB below the current output power level of the amplifier.

When the ONS 15216 EDFA2 is set to Constant Gain Temperature Compensated mode (factory default), the value for loss of output power alarm threshold cannot be changed. To display the loss of output power alarm threshold and other power and temperature alarm data, use the snmp table display local cerent15216EdfaCfgGroup command (shown in Example 5-14). This command returns the current alarm threshold default values.

Command

snmp attribute get local cerent15216EdfaLpoutDeviation

Syntax Description

snmp attribute get local cerent15216EdfaLpoutDeviation

This attribute is not required when operating in factory default Constant Gain Temperature Compensated mode. Setting of the loss of output power alarm deviation is only necessary when the amplifier is used in Constant Output Power mode.

This attribute is used to set the amount by which the output power must vary from the threshold set point before the alarm is activated. This attribute, in conjunction with the loss of output power alarm threshold and hysteresis, enables notification of network operations personnel if the output power of the ONS 15216 EDFA2 drops below a level that would impact proper operation of the optical network.

Typically, network operations personnel should set the loss of output power alarm deviation at a value that is appropriate for the intended network application so that the alarm condition is meaningful. Consult with the Cisco TAC to determine the deviation value for your application. As a guideline, Cisco recommends that the loss of output power alarm deviation value be set at 2 dB. The module triggers an alarm if it detects a signal level of 2 dB below the current output power alarm level threshold value set for the amplifier.

When the ONS 15216 EDFA2 is set to Constant Gain Temperature Compensated mode (factory default), the value for the loss of output power alarm threshold cannot be changed. To display the loss of output power alarm deviation and other power and temperature alarm data, use the snmp table display local cerent15216EdfaCfgGroup command as shown in Example 5-14. This command returns the current alarm threshold default values.

To set the loss of output power alarm deviation when the ONS 15216 EDFA2 is configured for operation in Constant Output Power or Constant Pump Power mode, type snmp attribute set local cerent15216EdfaLpoutDeviation at the command prompt followed by a number (as shown in Example 5-15). Valid entries are between 0 and 1000 and are in dB times 100. For example, if the loss of output power deviation required were 0.2 dB, the number input as the loss of output power alarm deviation would be 20.

The user is prompted to modify the attribute. If no changes are required, press Enter to return to command prompt.

5.6.7.3 Loss of Output Power Alarm Hysteresis

Command

snmp attribute get local cerent15216EdfaLpoutHysteresis

Syntax Description

snmp attribute get local cerent15216EdfaLpoutHysteresis

This attribute is not required when operating in factory default Constant Gain Temperature Compensated mode. Setting of the loss of output power alarm deviation is only necessary when the amplifier is used in Constant Output Power or Constant Pump Power modes of operation.

This attribute is used to set the amount by which the output power must increase from the threshold setpoint before the alarm is cleared. This attribute, in conjunction with the loss of output power alarm threshold and deviation, enables efficient processing and clearing of the alarm condition.

Typically, network operations personnel should set the loss of output power alarm hysteresis at a value that is appropriate for the intended network application so that the alarm condition is meaningful. Consult with the Cisco TAC to determine the hysteresis value for your application. As a guideline, Cisco recommends that loss of output power alarm hysteresis value be set at 0.2 dB. The module clears the alarm if it detects a signal level of 0.2 dB above the current output power alarm level threshold value set for the amplifier.

When ONS 15216 EDFA2 is set to Constant Gain Temperature Compensated mode (factory default), the value for loss of output power alarm threshold cannot be changed. To display the loss of output power alarm deviation and other power and temperature alarm data, use the snmp table display local cerent15216EdfaCfgGroup command as shown in Example 5-14. This command returns the current alarm threshold default values.

To set the loss of output power alarm hysteresis when ONS 15216 EDFA2 is configured for operation in either Constant Output Power mode or Constant Pump Power mode, type snmp attribute set local cerent15216EdfaLpoutHysteresis at the command prompt followed by a number. Valid entries are between 0 and 1000 and are in dB times 100. For example, if the loss of output power hysteresis required were 0.2 dB, the number input as loss of output power alarm hysteresis would be 200.

The user is prompted to modify the attribute. If changes are not required, press Enter to return to command prompt.

Changes must be saved before terminating the session. See the "Save Changes" section on page 4-11.

5.6.8 Database Backup and Restore

The configuration information for the ONS 15216 EDFA2 can be saved in a file for later use or to configure other ONS 15216 EDFA2 units. This file contains manufacturing information about the unit that is being backed up (such as part number and serial number), setup information for the unit (such as IP address and host name), all configuration information (such as alarm thresholds and pump mode), and the user database.

The backup file is saved with cyclic redundancy code (CRC) to ensure data integrity, and the user names, passwords, and other system settings are encrypted for security. Only the configuration information and user database are copied back to the ONS 15216 EDFA2 during a restore.

5.6.8.1 Database Backup Procedure


Step 1 Back up the system configuration to a file (in this case, dbbkup) on the FFS:

a. Set cerent15216EdfaOpDbFileName = "dbbkup".

b. Set cerent15216EdfaOpRequestId = 1.

c. Set cerent15216EdfaOpDbBackup = 2.

d. Wait until cerent15216EdfaOpStatus goes from inprogress to idle.

e. Verify that cerent15216EdfaOpResult is 0.

Step 2 Verify that the backup file is on the FFS by getting the table cerent15216EdfaFfsFileEntry.

Step 3 Copy the backup file to your TFTP server:

a. Set cerent15216EdfaFfsOpRequestId = 2.

b. Set cerent15216EdfaFfsOpSrcName = "dbbkup".

c. Set cerent15216EdfaFfsOpDstName = "dbbkup".

d. Set cerent15216EdfaFfsOpTftpSrvAddr = a.b.c.d (your TFTP server address).

e. Set cerent15216EdfaFfsOpOperation = 3 (put).

f. Set cerent15216EdfaFfsOpAction = 2 (perform).

Step 4 Wait for the TFTP put to complete and check that cerent15216EdfaFfsOpResult = 0 and that cerent15216EdfaFfsOpCopyProgress contains the number of bytes in the file "dbbkup".

Step 5 Copy file from your TFTP server to the FFS:

a. Set cerent15216EdfaFfsOpRequestId = 2.

b. Set cerent15216EdfaFfsOpSrcName = "dbbkup".

c. Set cerent15216EdfaFfsOpDstName = "dbbkup".

d. Set cerent15216EdfaFfsOpTftpSrvAddr = a.b.c.d (your TFTP server address).

e. Set cerent15216EdfaFfsOpOperation = 2 (get).

f. Set cerent15216EdfaFfsOpAction = 2 (perform).

Step 6 Verify that the file "dbbkup" is on the FFS by getting the table cerent15216EdfaFfsFileEntry.


5.6.8.2 Database Restore Procedure

The configuration information for the ONS 15216 EDFA2 can be restored form a file. During this process, all configuration information (such as alarm thresholds and pump mode) and the user database from the file are replaced in the ONS 15216 EDFA2 memory and FFS.

Before the restore begins, a cyclic redundancy code (CRC) check is performed to ensure data integrity.


Step 1 Restore from the backup database from a file (in this case, dbbkup) on the FFS:

a. Set cerent15216EdfaOpDbFileName = "dbbkup".

b. Set cerent15216EdfaOpRequestId = 1.

c. Set cerent15216EdfaOpDbRestore = 2.

d. Wait until cerent15216EdfaOpStatus goes from inprogress to idle.

e. Verify that cerent15216EdfaOpResult is 0.

Step 2 Save the changes by setting cerentEdfa15216OpSaveConfig = 2.

Step 3 Reboot the ONS 15216 EDFA2 by setting cerentEdfa15216OpReset = 2.

After the processor reboots, user names and passwords from the new user database must be used for access.
