Description: Alcatel OmniSwitch port management MIB for configuring speed, duplex, flow control, and physical port parameters.

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 ALCATEL-IND1-PORT-MIB?

ALCATEL-IND1-PORT-MIB is an Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch proprietary MIB for Ethernet and Fibre Channel switching module port configuration, covering speed, duplex, flow control, and other physical-port parameters. Beyond basic configuration it includes Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM) objects that read transceiver temperature and configurable warning thresholds, dying-gasp objects reporting chassis ID and power supply type at the moment of a power loss, and driver-level trap-drop counters. This gives it strong hardware-health relevance: ddmTemperature and ddmTempLowWarning let operators detect an SFP/transceiver overheating or running outside its safe operating range, while dying-gasp objects provide last-gasp notification of power supply failure. It layers vendor-specific transceiver and power-event monitoring on top of the standard IF-MIB rather than replacing physical/optical interface management wholesale. It is deployed on OmniSwitch chassis with pluggable optics, where transceiver health and power-loss detection are operationally important. Engineers can download the ALCATEL-IND1-PORT-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in ALCATEL-IND1-PORT-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

  • Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch switches with pluggable optics

Monitoring Examples

An operator would poll ddmInfoTable/ddmInfoEntry for ddmTemperature on each transceiver and compare it against ddmTempLowWarning to catch an optic running outside its rated temperature range before it fails outright. Watching esmDrvTrapDrops would reveal whether the switch's SNMP trap subsystem is dropping notifications due to overload, meaning other alerts could be silently lost. A dying-gasp trap carrying alaDyingGaspChassisId and alaDyingGaspPowerSupplyType would immediately flag which chassis and power supply lost power, useful for correlating a site-wide outage.

What Can Be Monitored

  • transceiver (DDM) temperature
  • DDM warning thresholds
  • dying-gasp chassis/power-supply identification
  • trap-drop counters
  • port speed/duplex/flow-control configuration

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using alcetherStatsCRCAlignErrors OID:

Select an Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise OmniSwitch switch as the target host to create a monitor — the SNMP service should be up and running on it. Click New Monitor, then check SNMP Custom on the Favorites tab, click Next, and confirm the host. On the next page, click Select... to open the built-in SNMP MIB Browser and type alcetherStatsCRCAlignErrors into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, selecting the specific row/instance you want to monitor since this is a table column, then select it and click OK. The total number of packets received with a length between 64 and 1518 octets that had either a bad FCS with an integral number of octets (FCS Error) or a non-integral number of octets (Alignment Error). On the monitor's Main parameters page you can set the target's SNMP port (default 161), credentials, polling interval, and other settings — see the SNMP Monitor help for details. On the State conditions and Alerting tabs, configure when the monitor should change state and trigger an alert; since this is a Counter64-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the counter increases between polls, since a rising count of errors, failures, or discards often points to a real underlying problem. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
