Category: Device Management, Vendor: 3Com

Description: Device-specific MIB for the 3Com SuperStack II Switch 9000SX, providing chassis management, slot configuration, and hardware status for this modular chassis.

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 A3COM51-SS9000SX?

A3COM51-SS9000SX is a 3Com proprietary MIB for the SuperStack II 9000SX family of switches, exposing per-port traffic counters (received/transmitted packets and bytes) alongside chassis environmental notifications. Its most notable objects are an overheat trap, signaling that the onboard temperature sensor detected an overheat condition causing the unit to shut down until sufficiently cooled, and a cold-start trap issued once the unit resumes operation. As a hardware/performance MIB it lets an administrator both track port-level throughput and catch a thermal shutdown event before assuming a simple power loss. It is deployed on legacy 3Com SuperStack 9000SX switches. Engineers can download the A3COM51-SS9000SX file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in A3COM51-SS9000SX. 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

3Com SuperStack II 9000SX switches

Monitoring Examples

Receiving the overheat trap immediately explains an otherwise-unexpected switch outage as a thermal shutdown rather than a power or hardware failure, prompting a check of the unit's ventilation before it is returned to service.

What Can Be Monitored

INT ss9000UnitPaceMode	1.3.6.1.4.1.43.27.1	INTEGER	read-write	This object specifies the type of backoff algorithm. Any port can use the standard ethernet algorithm or, for PACE applications, it can be set into low latency mode. In this mode, the backoff algorithm is optimized to minimize the possibility of collisions. PACE mode can be set for the whole unit only.
ss9000PortTable	1.3.6.1.4.1.43.27.2		not-accessible	The port management table.
ss9000PortTableEntry	1.3.6.1.4.1.43.27.2.1		not-accessible	This table contains pairs of 32-bit counters which map to RMON 2 64-bit counters
INT ss9000PortIndex	1.3.6.1.4.1.43.27.2.1.1	INTEGER	read-only	The index of this table entry.
CTR ss9000PortRxPktCtLow	1.3.6.1.4.1.43.27.2.1.2	Counter	read-only	The lower 32 bits of the 64 bit receive packet counter for this port
CTR ss9000PortRxPktCtHigh	1.3.6.1.4.1.43.27.2.1.3	Counter	read-only	The upper 32 bits of the 64 bit receive packet counter for this port
CTR ss9000PortRxByteCtLow	1.3.6.1.4.1.43.27.2.1.4	Counter	read-only	The lower 32 bits of the 64 bit receive byte counter for this port
CTR ss9000PortRxByteCtHigh	1.3.6.1.4.1.43.27.2.1.5	Counter	read-only	The upper 32 bits of the 64 bit receive byte counter for this port
CTR ss9000PortTxPktCtLow	1.3.6.1.4.1.43.27.2.1.6	Counter	read-only	The lower 32 bits of the 64 bit transmit packet counter for this port
CTR ss9000PortTxPktCtHigh	1.3.6.1.4.1.43.27.2.1.7	Counter	read-only	The upper 32 bits of the 64 bit transmit packet counter for this port
CTR ss9000PortTxByteCtLow	1.3.6.1.4.1.43.27.2.1.8	Counter	read-only	The lower 32 bits of the 64 bit transmit byte counter for this port
CTR ss9000PortTxByteCtHigh	1.3.6.1.4.1.43.27.2.1.9	Counter	read-only	The upper 32 bits of the 64 bit transmit byte counter for this port
INT ss9000SaveConfiguration	1.3.6.1.4.1.43.27.3	INTEGER	write-only	When this object is set, the device will copy the contents of the configuration database to a buffer and save it to the persistant store specified by the value of the object. The save is performed asynchronously, and the snmp agent will continue to respond to both gets and sets while the save is taking place. A network management application may use the ss9000SaveStatus object to determine when the asynchronous save operation has completed.
INT ss9000SaveStatus	1.3.6.1.4.1.43.27.4	INTEGER	read-only	This object will return the status of a save operation invoked by setting the ss9000SaveConfiguration object. A network management application can read this object to determine that a save operation has completed.
ss9000MauType	1.3.6.1.4.1.43.27.5
ss9000MauType1000BaseSX	1.3.6.1.4.1.43.27.5.1
extreme	1.3.6.1.4.1.1916
NTF overheat	1.3.6.1.4.1.1916.0.1			A overheat trap indicates that the on board tempature sensor has reported a overheat condition. System will shutdown until unit has suficiently cooled such that operation may begin again. A cold start trap will be issued when the unit has come back on line.
NTF fanfailed	1.3.6.1.4.1.1916.0.2			A fan failed trap indicates one or more of the cooling fans inside the device has failed. A fanOK trap will be sent once the fan has attained normal operation.
NTF fanOK	1.3.6.1.4.1.1916.0.3			A fan has tansitioned out of a failure state and is now operating correctly.
NTF invalidLoginAttempt	1.3.6.1.4.1.1916.0.4			A user attempted to login to console or by telnet but was refused access due to incorrect username or password
