CISCO-CDP-MIB
CDP is a device discovery protocol that runs on all Cisco manufactured equipment (that is routers,
bridges, communication servers, WBU switches). Each device sends periodic messages to a multicast
address. Each device listens to the periodic messages sent by others in order to learn about neighboring
devices and determine when their interfaces to the media go up or down.
The CISCO-CDP-MIB provides information about the device identifications, CDP running status, CDP
transmitting frequency, and the time for the receiving device to hold CDP messages (time to live). This
MIB stores information in a table called cdpGlobalInfo.
CISCO-CFS-MIB
This MIB facilitates the global level control over the CFS capable features in the system. This MIB
applies to one or more sets of devices that have connectivity through the SAN fabric. Many features in
the Cisco MDS 9000 Family need to exchange information between peer devices across the SAN fabric.
CFS provides this general mechanism for data and configuration distribution within the fabric.
A feature supported in a device may or may not be CFS capable. In case a feature is CFS capable, the
control of the CFS operations are instrumented through this MIB. As part of the CFS configuration, you
must enable the feature for data distribution on all peer devices. The CFS, in addition to providing the
basic distribution infrastructure to the CFS capable features in a stable fabric, also provides the
infrastructure to handle data distribution when two stable fabrics merge.
CISCO-COMMON-MGMT-MIB
This MIB integrates different elements of managing a device. For example, different device access
methods (such as CLI, SNMP, XML, and others) have different sets of users who are accustomed to
communicating with the device. The ccmCommonUserTable provides the framework in which to create
one set of users that is common across all the device access methods.
This framework integrates the management of different access methods.
CISCO-COMMON-MGMT-CAPABILITY
The CISCO-COMMON-MGMT-CAPABILITY provides the implementation details for the
CISCO-COMMON-MGMT-MIB, as implemented in the Cisco MDS NX-OS or SAN-OS.
