Category: Device Management, Vendor: H3C/HH3C
Description: Configures port mirroring groups on H3C/3Com switches, allowing traffic from source ports to be copied to a destination monitor port for analysis.

Import MIBs, browse SNMP OIDs, create custom SNMP monitors, configure alerts, and monitor any SNMP-enabled network device from a single console.
What Is A3COM-HUAWEI-MIRRORGROUP-MIB?
A3COM-HUAWEI-MIRRORGROUP-MIB is a vendor-specific MIB jointly attributed to 3Com and Huawei (from their former joint venture, H3C) covering configuration of port mirroring groups on managed Ethernet switches. It exposes configuration-oriented data defining mirror groups, source ports, and destination monitor ports, since its purpose is to set up traffic-capture topology for external analysis tools rather than report performance counters. While primarily a configuration MIB, it supports monitoring software/feature status indirectly: administrators can verify a mirroring session is correctly provisioned and active before relying on it for troubleshooting other faults. No sample object names were available for this module, so exact table structure cannot be confirmed beyond the module description. It depends on the switch's standard interface-indexing conventions for referencing source and destination ports, and is typically deployed in enterprise or campus networks using H3C/3Com/Huawei switches for traffic analysis, IDS, or packet-sniffer setups, with the A3COM-HUAWEI-MIRRORGROUP-MIB download commonly loaded into a MIB browser to inspect the mirror group tables.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in A3COM-HUAWEI-MIRRORGROUP-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/3Com switch
- Huawei-3Com joint-venture managed Ethernet switch
Monitoring Examples
No sample object names were provided for this module, so a concrete MIB-object-grounded example cannot be honestly constructed. In typical usage an admin would configure a mirror group entry mapping one or more source ports to a destination monitoring port, then read back the group's configuration to confirm the mirroring session is correctly active before attaching analysis equipment to the destination port.
What Can Be Monitored
- mirror group configuration state
- source port assignment
- destination monitor port assignment
