FortiController/FortiSwitch MIBs
The FortiController SNMP agent supports Fortinet proprietary MIBs as well as RFCs1213 and 2665. The support for these RFCs includes parts of RFC 2665 (Ethernet-like MIB) and those elements of RFC 1213 (MIB II) that apply to the FortiController configuration.
There are two MIB files for FortiController boards:
-
The Fortinet CORE MIB (FORTINET-CORE-MIB.mib) contains traps, fields and information that are common to all Fortinet products.
-
The Fortinet FortiSwitch MIB (FORTINET-FORTISWITCH-MIB.mib) contains traps, fields and information that are specific to FortiController.
You can download these two MIB files from the Fortinet Support site (https://support.fortinet.com).
To find the MIBs, after logging into the Support site, select Download > Firmware Images Then select the FortiSwitchATCA product. Select the Download tab and find the FORTINET-CORE-MIB.mib and FORTINET-FORTISWITCH-MIB.mib for your FortiController firmware version.
The functionality described in this document is support by the following products:
The information is also compatible with most recent versions of the firmware running on these products. While these hardware products are named FortiController, the FORTINET-FORTISWITCH-MIB.mib file refers to the products as FortiSwitch. The FORTINET-FORTISWITCH-MIB.mib file includes FortiSwitch/FortiController traps as well as MIB fields that provide information about FortiSwitch/FortiController operating status as well the operating status of the worker blades in a FortiController SLBC cluster. |
Your SNMP manager may already include standard and private MIBs in a compiled database. If this is not the case, you need to download and compile the standard MIB2 files. Then you will need to add the Fortinet Core and FortiController MIBs to this data base to view Fortinet specific information.
SNMPv3 with authentication and security level defined will assure encryption of the SNMP queries and replies.
