SNMP Agent

ConfD SNMP Agent is a fully featured SNMP agent providing a northbound SNMP v1, v2, and v3 interface for element management and monitoring with the ability to access configuration data in an XML format. Tail-f's ConfD allows developers to describe their networking application once and then automatically render CLI, Web, and NETCONF interfaces from that single underlying model. The SNMP Agent further extends the value of Tail-f's architecture by avoiding the tedious development effort of writing a separate set of instrumentation functions just to get configuration data to work with SNMP data. In this environment NETCONF, CLI, Web UI, and SNMP interfaces can use a single configuration database and share one set of common instrumentation functions.

The SNMP Agent has the following capabilities:

  • Extensible SNMP Agent supporting SNMPv1, SNMPv2c, and SNMPv3
  • MIB compiler for SMIv1 and SMIv2
  • Configuration data is specified in a ConfSpec (XML specification format)
  • Common instrumentation functions for controlling managed objects via all management interfaces
  • SNMP Agent uses ConfD AAA and SNMP View to manage access
  • Support for master and sub-agent
