What Is A3COM-HUAWEI-FTM-MIB?

A3COM-HUAWEI-FTM-MIB is a Huawei-3Com (H3C) private MIB for Fabric Topology Management (FTM), which underlies H3C's XRN-Fabric stacking/IRF technology for combining multiple chassis into a single logical switching fabric. Its core h3cFtmUnitTable, indexed by h3cFtmIndex, tracks each stack member's h3cFtmUnitID, h3cFtmUnitName, h3cFtmUnitRole (master(0) or slave(1)), and h3cFtmNumberMode (automatic(0) or manual(1) unit-ID assignment), while separate scalars cover fabric-wide authentication (h3cFtmAuthMode: none/simple/md5, h3cFtmAuthValue), the h3cFtmFabricVlanID used for inter-chassis fabric traffic, and h3cFtmFabricType describing the physical topology (outofStack, line, ring, mesh). Two notifications, h3cFtmUnitIDChange and h3cFtmUnitNameChange, alert management systems when a stack member's identity changes, which is significant because unexpected ID/name churn often signals a fabric renegotiation after a link or unit failure. It depends on A3COM-HUAWEI-OID-MIB for its registration point, and is deployed on H3C switches/routers participating in an XRN-Fabric/IRF stack, and administrators can download the A3COM-HUAWEI-FTM-MIB file to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in A3COM-HUAWEI-FTM-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.

Supported Devices

H3C (Huawei-3Com) switches/routers using XRN-Fabric/IRF stacking

Monitoring Examples

An operator polls h3cFtmUnitTable to confirm exactly one unit reports h3cFtmUnitRole master(0) and checks h3cFtmFabricType against the expected ring or mesh topology; an unexpected h3cFtmUnitIDChange notification for a unit that was not intentionally re-provisioned would indicate an inter-chassis link failure forced a fabric renumbering, potentially splitting the stack.

What Can Be Monitored

stack unit ID and role (master/slave)
unit ID numbering mode (automatic/manual)
fabric topology type (line/ring/mesh)
fabric authentication mode
fabric VLAN ID
unit ID/name change notifications

h3cFtmManMIB	1.3.6.1.4.1.43.45.1.10.2.1.1			this mib will maintain Fabric topology management. The mib includes unit-id, unit-name and fabric authentication information.
h3cFtmManMIBObjects	1.3.6.1.4.1.43.45.1.10.2.1.1.1
h3cFtmUnitTable	1.3.6.1.4.1.43.45.1.10.2.1.1.1.1		not-accessible	A table of informations of XRN-Fabric Unit.
h3cFtmUnitEntry	1.3.6.1.4.1.43.45.1.10.2.1.1.1.1.1		not-accessible	An entry for configuring unit informations of XRN-Fabric.
I32 h3cFtmIndex	1.3.6.1.4.1.43.45.1.10.2.1.1.1.1.1.1	Integer32	accessible-for-notify	The unique index of a unit.
INT h3cFtmUnitID	1.3.6.1.4.1.43.45.1.10.2.1.1.1.1.1.2	INTEGER	read-write	Identifer of unit in fabric. Its value should be between 1 and the maximum which defines in product specification. An exception is described in description of h3cFtmNumberMode. In that case, the value of this object remains its original value after set to zero.
OCT h3cFtmUnitName	1.3.6.1.4.1.43.45.1.10.2.1.1.1.1.1.3	OCTET STRING	read-write	Name of unit in XRN-Fabric. It consists of no more than 64 characters.
INT h3cFtmUnitRole	1.3.6.1.4.1.43.45.1.10.2.1.1.1.1.1.4	INTEGER	read-only	Role of unit in XRN-Fabric. One unit in a XRN-Fabric acts as master role and others act as slave roles
INT h3cFtmNumberMode	1.3.6.1.4.1.43.45.1.10.2.1.1.1.1.1.5	INTEGER	read-only	Numbering Mode of unit in XRN-Fabric. If the unit ID is assigned by the auto numbering algorithm, the numbering mode will be automatic numbering; if the unit ID (h3cFtmUnitID) is assigned by the user, the numbering mode will be manual numbering; if h3cFtmUnitID is set to be zero, the numbering mode will become automatic numbering.
