SNMPProxyMBean

Overview

This MBean represents an SNMP agent that is proxied by a WebLogic Server SNMP agent.

Attributes

This section describes the following attributes:

CachingDisabled

Private property that disables caching in proxies.

Community

The community name to be passed on for all SNMPv1 requests to this proxied SNMP agent.

If you specify a security name for this proxied agent, the WebLogic SNMP agent ignores this community name. Instead, the agent encodes the security name in an SNMPv3 request and forwards the SNMPv3 request to this proxied agent.

MBeanInfo

Returns the MBean info for this MBean.

Deprecated.

Name

The user-specified name of this MBean instance.

This name is included as one of the key properties in the MBean's javax.management.ObjectName:
Name=user-specified-name

Notes

Optional information that you can include to describe this configuration.

WebLogic Sever saves this note in the domain's configuration file (config.xml) as XML PCDATA. All left angle brackets (<) are converted to the XML entity <. Carriage returns/line feeds are preserved.

Note:

If you create or edit a note from the Administration Console, the Administration Console does not preserve carriage returns/line feeds.

ObjectName

Returns the ObjectName under which this MBean is registered in the MBean server.

Deprecated.

OidRoot

The root of the object identifier (OID) tree that this proxied SNMP agent controls.

Parent

Return the immediate parent for this MBean

Port

The port number on which this proxied SNMP agent is listening.

Registered

Returns false if the MBean represented by this object has been unregistered.

Deprecated.

SecurityLevel

The security level that the proxied SNMP agent expects for the specified security name.

SecurityName

The user name on whose behalf the WebLogic SNMP agent forwards v3 requests. If not specified, the request is forwarded as a v1 request.

If you specify a security name, you must also specify a security level that is equal to or lower than the security level that is configured for communication between the WebLogic SNMP agent and SNMP managers. For example, if the WebLogic SNMP agent requires incoming SNMPv3 requests to use the authentication protocol but no privacy protocol, the security level for this proxy must be either Authentication Only or None. Note that if you want to use the authorization or privacy protocols, you must configure credential mapping in the WebLogic Server security realm.

The WebLogic SNMP agent cannot forward or pass through the credentials that are contained in SNMPv3 requests from SNMP managers. Instead, the agent authenticates and performs other security operations on incoming requests, and then constructs a new request to forward to a proxied agent.

For more information, see:

• getSecurityLevel()
• getCommunity()

Timeout

The number of milliseconds that the WebLogic Server SNMP agent waits for a response to requests that it forwards to this proxy agent.

If the interval elapses without a response, the WebLogic SNMP agent sends an error to the requesting manager.

Type

Returns the type of the MBean.

Operations

This section describes the following operations:

freezeCurrentValue

If the specified attribute has not been set explicitly, and if the attribute has a default value, this operation forces the MBean to persist the default value.

Unless you use this operation, the default value is not saved and is subject to change if you update to a newer release of WebLogic Server. Invoking this operation isolates this MBean from the effects of such changes.

Note:

To insure that you are freezing the default value, invoke the restoreDefaultValue operation before you invoke this.

This operation has no effect if you invoke it on an attribute that does not provide a default value or on an attribute for which some other value has been set.

Deprecated. 9.0.0.0

isSet

Returns true if the specified attribute has been set explicitly in this MBean instance.

restoreDefaultValue

If the specified attribute has a default value, this operation removes any value that has been set explicitly and causes the attribute to use the default value.

Default values are subject to change if you update to a newer release of WebLogic Server. To prevent the value from changing if you update to a newer release, invoke the freezeCurrentValue operation.

This operation has no effect if you invoke it on an attribute that does not provide a default value or on an attribute that is already using the default.

Deprecated. 9.0.0.0

unSet

Restore the given property to its default value.
