FortiGate MIBs
The FortiGate SNMP agent supports FortiGate proprietary MIBs as well as standard
RFC 1213 and RFC 2665 MIBs. RFC support includes support for the parts of RFC
2665 (Ethernet-like MIB) and the parts of RFC 1213 (MIB II) that apply to FortiGate
unit configuration.
The FortiGate MIBs are listed in
Table 6
. You can obtain these MIB files from Fortinet
technical support. To be able to communicate with the SNMP agent, you must
compile all of these MIBs into your SNMP manager.
Your SNMP manager might already include standard and private MIBs in a compiled
database that is ready to use. You must add the Fortinet proprietary MIBs to this
database. If the standard MIBs used by the Fortinet SNMP agent are already
compiled into your SNMP manager you do not have to compile them again.
Table 6: FortiGate MIBs
MIB file name or RFC Description
fortinet.2.80.mib
The Fortinet MIB is a proprietary MIB that includes detailed FortiGate
system configuration information. Add this MIB to your SNMP
manager to monitor all FortiGate configuration settings. For more
information about FortiGate MIB fields, see
“FortiGate MIBs” on
page 107
