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
initiates NHRP requests of various
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
registrations alone, in which NHRC is a client and NHRS is a
server.
In case the use of any term is not clear from context or not
explicitly stated, they mean the same as in RFC 2332 and
RFC 2677.

This notification signifies that the SNMP entity, acting as an
agent, has detected that one of its NHRP entities, acting as an
NHRC, has successfully registered with an NHRS to which it was
not already registered.
cneNotifNextHopRegServerDown
.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.680.0.2
This notification signifies that the SNMP entity, acting as an
agent, has detected that that one of its NHRP entities, acting
as a NHRC, has detected(by repeated registration retries or
learnt from some other source(e.g. from a lower layer protocol))
that the NHRS it was registered to, or was trying to register
to, is operationally down(from the NHRC's perspective).
This notification doesn't indicate that the concerned NHRP
server is down or unreachable or not even that it is unable to
provide (other)NHRP services. It just indicates that the NHRC
couldn't register successfully with the NHRS.
This notification will be be sent only once for a down event
i.e. two consecutive cneNotifNextHopRegServerDown notifications
(for the same NHRS) must always be interspersed by a
cneNotifNextHopRegServerUp notification(for the same NHRS).
cneNotifNextHopRegClientUp
.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.680.0.3
This notification signifies that the SNMP entity, acting as an
agent, has detected that one of its NHRP entities, acting as an
NHRS perceives that an NHRP entity(an NHRC), which was not
already registered, has just now successfully registered.
cneNotifNextHopRegClientDown
.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.680.0.4
This notification signifies that the SNMP entity, acting as an
agent, has detected that one of its NHRP entities, acting as an
NHRS perceives that an NHRP entity, acting as an NHRC, is no
more registered or failed to register.
This notification will be be sent only once for a down event
i.e. two consecutive cneNotifNextHopRegClientDown notifications
(for the same NHRC) must always be interspersed by a
cneNotifNextHopRegclientUp notification(for the same NHRC).
cneNotifNextHopPeerUp
.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.680.0.5
This notification signifies that the SNMP entity, acting as an
agent, has detected that one of its NHRP entities perceives that
it has learnt the protocol-to-NBMA address binding information
for an NBMA next hop(which it didn't have). An NHRP entity might
learn the same address binding information for a next hop peer
as part of multiple address resolutions; this notification
should be sent only when it first learns this address binding
information.
cneNotifNextHopPeerDown
.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.680.0.6
This notification signifies that the SNMP entity, acting as an
agent, has detected that one of its NHRP entities perceives that
it has lost the protocol-to-NBMA address binding information for
an NBMA next hop(which it earlier had).
An NHRP entity might maintain multiple cache entries, with the
same address binding information, for the same next hop peer
(corresponding to different destinations reachable via this next
hop peer); This notification will be be sent only when the
address binding information is lost meaning only when all such
entries are deleted.
This notification will be be sent only once for a 'down' event
i.e. two consecutive cneNotifNextHopPeerDown notifications
(for the same NHP) must always be interspersed by a
cneNotifNextHopUp notification(for the same NHP).
cneNotifRateLimitExceeded
.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.680.0.7
This notification signifies that the
SNMP entity, acting in an agent role, has detected that one of
its NHRP entities(identified by the ifIndex) has been very
frequently reaching the threshold on the rate of NHRP protocol
messages exchanged in an NBMA network. It is left to each
individual implementation to determine the threshold frequency
of this event(threshold being reached on the rate of NHRP
protocol messages exchanged) which should result in a
notification.
The ifIndex object in this notification represents the use of a
generic ifIndex which reflects a specific NBMA subnetwork
related interface as determined by an implementation.
