Category: Hardware and Environment, Vendor: H3C/HH3C

Description: Monitors LAN switch performance counters on H3C/3Com switches, including per-port throughput, buffer utilization, and switching fabric statistics.

Start monitoring vendor-neutral, standards-based MIB, any SNMPv3-capable network device (SNMP engine identity/boot/clock status) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. 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-HUWAEI-LswPERFORMANCE-MIB?

This is a proprietary MIB jointly used by H3C (formerly 3Com/Huawei-3Com) LAN switches to expose performance-related statistics beyond what standard MIB-2 or IF-MIB counters provide. It focuses on switching-fabric and per-port performance data, including throughput levels, buffer/queue utilization, and internal switching statistics. Administrators rely on it to monitor the operational health of a switch's data plane, watching for buffer exhaustion, port congestion, or fabric bottlenecks that signal degraded hardware performance or overload conditions. It is typically layered on top of, and complements, standard interface MIBs (IF-MIB) rather than replacing them. The A3COM-HUWAEI-LswPERFORMANCE-MIB MIB is deployed in enterprise and campus network environments running H3C/3Com Ethernet switches where fine-grained performance visibility is needed for capacity planning and troubleshooting.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in A3COM-HUWAEI-LswPERFORMANCE-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 LAN switch

Monitoring Examples

An administrator would poll per-port throughput and buffer utilization objects to detect a port approaching saturation, or check switching fabric statistics to identify uneven load distribution across line cards. A sustained rise in buffer utilization alongside dropped frames would point to an oversubscribed uplink needing QoS adjustment or a hardware upgrade. No sample object names were provided for this module, so exact object identifiers cannot be confirmed here.

What Can Be Monitored

  • per-port throughput
  • buffer utilization
  • switching fabric statistics
  • port congestion indicators
