ADVA-MIB

Description: Root MIB module for ADVA Optical Networking equipment, providing base object identifiers and definitions used by the FSP150 (F3) product line of optical transport devices.

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.

ADVA-MIB is the common/root MIB module for ADVA Optical Networking's equipment, most notably the FSP150 (F3) family of optical transport and carrier-Ethernet demarcation devices, providing the base object identifiers and shared system-level objects used across ADVA's product MIBs. Unlike a pure OID-registration module, it exposes real system inventory and health data: manufacturer and version identification (neManufacturer, neMibVariant), a time-of-day object (neDateAndTime), a memory-usage pair (neMemorySizeTotal, neMemorySizeFree), a storage table (neStorageTable/neStorageEntry with neStorageDescr, neStorageCapacity, neStorageAvailable), and a general device alarm-status object (neAlarmStatus). This makes it directly useful for monitoring hardware/software status: memory utilization (free vs. total memory), disk/flash storage capacity and availability per storage partition, and overall network-element alarm/fault condition, in addition to basic software/version identification. As the "Common MIB," it underpins and is depended on by the more detailed FSP150/F3 product MIB modules for interface- and service-level detail. In an NMS's MIB tree, the ADVA-MIB module is typically loaded alongside those more detailed FSP150/F3 modules to build a complete inventory and health picture. It is deployed on ADVA optical transport/demarcation network elements managed from an NMS in metro/access optical networks.

An admin would poll neMemorySizeFree against neMemorySizeTotal to detect memory exhaustion on an FSP150 network element, and walk the neStorageTable (indexed by neStorageIndex, with neStorageDescr, neStorageCapacity, neStorageAvailable) to catch a storage partition running low on free space. Checking neAlarmStatus reveals whether the device currently has any active alarm condition, while neManufacturer and neMibVariant confirm the exact hardware/software variant being managed. A sudden drop in neStorageAvailable or a change in neAlarmStatus would typically trigger investigation of the ADVA network element.
