What Is A3COM-HUAWEI-COMMON-MIB?

A3COM-HUAWEI-COMMON-MIB is an H3C (A3COM-Huawei) enterprise MIB defining common base objects and textual conventions shared across the broader family of H3C-specific MIB modules. Its sparse module description ("Write config to router") suggests it functions largely as a foundational, configuration-oriented registration/definitions module rather than a data-rich runtime MIB. As a common/shared module it likely exposes limited runtime monitorable data itself, instead providing textual conventions and OID roots that other H3C MIBs (such as the 802.1X PAE extension) build upon. It is inherently a dependency for other A3COM-Huawei enterprise MIB modules, which import its shared conventions to maintain consistency across the vendor's MIB suite. It is deployed on H3C (3Com/Huawei) routers and switches as an underlying support module rather than a directly polled monitoring target. Engineers can download the A3COM-HUAWEI-COMMON-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in A3COM-HUAWEI-COMMON-MIB. Use the built-in SNMP Monitoring Browser to explore available variables, view their current values and descriptions, and select the objects you want to monitor. You can then create SNMP monitors, configure thresholds, and receive alerts when monitored values change.

Monitoring Examples

No sample objects were provided for this MIB, so specific runtime monitoring behavior cannot be honestly described; based on its role as a "common" module, it most likely defines shared textual conventions and OID registration points used by other H3C MIBs rather than exposing its own pollable counters or tables.

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using hwSysBootType OID:

Select an H3C router or switch as the target host to create a monitor — the SNMP service should be up and running on it. Click New Monitor, then check SNMP Custom on the Favorites tab, click Next, and confirm the host. On the next page, click Select... to open the built-in SNMP MIB Browser and type hwSysBootType into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, then select it and click OK. The boot type of the system whether the last device reboot was by CLI (warm start) or power off (cold start). On the monitor's Main parameters page you can set the target's SNMP port (default 161), credentials, polling interval, and other settings — see the SNMP Monitor help for details. On the State conditions and Alerting tabs, configure when the monitor should change state and trigger an alert; since this is an INTEGER-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the value is anything other than 'warmStart', since that indicates the condition this object reports has changed to one worth investigating. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
