This MIB module is an extension of the NHRP MIB module as
defined in RFC 2677. It defines notifications associated with
critical events in the Next Hop Resolution Protocol, NHRP, as
defined in RFC 2332. This module also contains information about
Cisco proprietary enhancements to the protocol.
Glossary of terms used in this MIB:
NBMA Non-Broadcast Multi-Access
NHRP Next Hop Resolution Protocol
Internetwork layer The media-independent layer(IP in case
of TCP/IP networks)
Subnetwork layer The media-dependent layer underlying
the internetwork layer, including the
NBMA technology
NHC Next Hop Client - An entity which

types to obtain access to NHRP service.
NHS Next Hop Server - An entity providing
the NHRP service within the NBMA cloud.
NHRC Next Hop Registration Client - An
entity which initiates NHRP
registration requests.
NHRS Next Hop Registration Server - An
entity for which an NHRP registration
request is destined.
NHP Next Hop Peer - Any two NHRP entities in
an NBMA network which are not related by
an NHRS-NHRC relationship(either of them
has not registered with the other) are
NHPs to each other.
Client Unless explicitly stated or obvious
from context, a client refers to an NHC
Server Unless explicitly stated or obvious
from context, a server refers to an NHS
Station A station refers to a host or router
which contains an NHRP entity(NHC/NHS)
NHRC and NHRS are relevant to a client server model based on

explicitly stated, they mean the same as in RFC 2332 and
RFC 2677.
