@Distributable(value=DAEMON)
public class CiscoPingMibMonitor
extends SnmpMonitorStrategy

This class is designed to be used by the service poller framework to test the availability of the ICMP service on remote interfaces, using the CISCO-PING-MIB as a proxy of sorts. The class implements the ServiceMonitor interface that allows it to be used along with other plug-ins by the service poller framework. Derived from the SnmpMonitor class. See that class' docs for authorship history.

public CiscoPingMibMonitor()

Method Detail

serviceName

public String serviceName()

Returns the name of the service that the plug-in monitors ("CiscoPing").

Returns:

The service that the plug-in monitors.

initialize

public void initialize(Map<String,Object> parameters)

This method is called after the framework creates an instance of the plug-in. The framework passes the object a proxy object that can be used to retrieve configuration information specific to the plug-in. Additionally, any parameters for the plug-in from the package definition are passed using the parameters element.

If there is a critical error, like missing service libraries, the the Monitor may throw a ServiceMonitorException. If the plug-in throws an exception then the plug-in will be disabled in the framework.

Initialize the service monitor.

Specified by:

initialize in interface ServiceMonitor

Overrides:

initialize in class IPv4Monitor

Parameters:

parameters - Not currently used

Throws:

RuntimeException - Thrown if an unrecoverable error occurs that prevents the plug-in from functioning.

initialize

public void initialize(MonitoredService svc)

Called by the poller framework when an interface is being added to the scheduler. Here we perform any necessary initialization to prepare the NetworkInterface object for polling.

Specified by:

initialize in interface ServiceMonitor

Overrides:

initialize in class IPv4Monitor

Parameters:

svc - a MonitoredService object.

Throws:

RuntimeException - Thrown if an unrecoverable error occurs that prevents the interface from being monitored.

poll

public PollStatus poll(MonitoredService svc,
                       Map<String,Object> parameters)

This method is the heart of the plug-in monitor. Each time an interface requires a check to be performed as defined by the scheduler the poll method is invoked. The poll is passed the interface to check

By default when the status transition from up to down or vice versa the framework will generate an event. Additionally, if the polling interval changes due to an extended unavailability, the framework will generate an additional down event. The plug-in can suppress the generation of the default events by setting the suppress event bit in the returned integer.

The poll() method is responsible for setting up and following up the IOS ping entry that proxies monitoring of the specified address for ICMP service availability.

Specified by:

poll in interface ServiceMonitor

Specified by:

poll in class SnmpMonitorStrategy

Parameters:

svc - TODO

parameters - The package parameters (timeout, retry, etc...) to be used for this poll.

Returns:

The availability of the interface and if a transition event should be suppressed.

Throws:

RuntimeException - Thrown for any unrecoverable errors.
