SNMP RFC 1213 (MIB-II) and RFC 2664 (EtherLike-MIB)

oneloveamaru14 — Thu, 06 Oct 2011 20:05:11 GMT

Hardware: PA-500

Firmware: 4.0.2

Page 17 of the PAN 4.0 Admin Guide says:

"Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)—Supports RFC 1213 (MIB-II) and RFC
2665 (Ethernet interfaces) for remote monitoring, and generates SNMP traps for one or
more trap sinks (refer to “Configuring SNMP Trap Destinations” on page 54)."

But yet when I do an snmpwalk I do not see any MIB's for RFC 1213 (MIB-II) or RFC 2665 (EtherLike-MIB).

The MIB's that do show up are HOST-RESOURCES-MIB, IF-MIB and SNMPv2-SMI.

On my Cisco and HP routers I get RFC1213-MIB and EtherLike-MIB with an snmpwalk and lots of them.

Is anyone else having this problem? Can anyone see RFC 1213 or RFC 2665 MIB's when they do an snmpwalk?

@oneloveamaru:

The Palo Alto Networks implementation does not implement every feature described in the RFCs that you cite.

If you wish to see more features of these RFCs implemented I encourage you to talk to your sales team and have them file a feature request.

Thank you,

Benjamin

I wish the Admin Guide would say limited support then.

Also, if anyone searches for this, the reason those MIB names don't come up is because PAN is calling them something else. If you run the OID manually from either RFC1213 or RFC2664, it'll come back but named IF-MIB.
