Description: Alteon TS switch network MIB for managing IP addressing, routing tables, and network settings on TS platforms.

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 ALTEON-TS-NETWORK-MIB?

ALTEON-TS-NETWORK-MIB (internally the 'tigonNetwork' module) is a large vendor-specific MIB from Alteon WebSystems that models Layer 3 network configuration on Alteon's Tigon-based switch/router platforms. It covers IP interface and gateway provisioning through parallel current/pending-configuration table pairs (ipCurCfgIntfTable/ipNewCfgIntfTable, ipCurCfgGwTable/ipNewCfgGwTable), static routing (ipCurCfgStaticRouteTable/ipNewCfgStaticRouteTable), IP forwarding per port and per local interface, and a very extensive VRRP implementation (vrrpCurCfgVirtRtrTable/vrrpNewCfgVirtRtrTable) with tracking of interfaces, VLAN ports, L4 ports, real servers and HSRP/HSRV compatibility, alongside RIP, OSPF, ARP, and DNS statistics groups under the switch's stats and information subtrees. Because entries exist in current and new (pending-apply) variants, the MIB reflects Alteon's config-then-apply provisioning model rather than immediate commit-on-set. It is deployed on Alteon (later Nortel/Radware) Layer 2/3 switching platforms where SNMP is used to provision routing and high-availability failover, and network teams look up the ALTEON-TS-NETWORK-MIB download when building monitoring templates for these switches.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in ALTEON-TS-NETWORK-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

  • Alteon WebSystems Tigon-based Layer 2/3 switches (later Nortel/Radware Alteon platforms)

Monitoring Examples

An operator compares vrrpCurCfgVirtRtrState against vrrpCurCfgVirtRtrPriority and vrrpCurCfgVirtRtrPreempt for a virtual router entry in vrrpCurCfgVirtRtrTable; a virtual router unexpectedly reporting backup state with a higher configured priority than its peer indicates a VRRP preemption or tracking failure that could leave a failover path unprotected.

What Can Be Monitored

  • IP interface and gateway configuration (current vs. pending)
  • static route table entries
  • VRRP virtual router state, priority, and preemption
  • VRRP interface/tracking objects (VLAN, L4 port, real server)
  • OSPF/RIP/ARP/DNS statistics counters
