Description: Alvarion wireless device system MIB for managing device hostname, location, contact, and system-level operational state.

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 ALVARION-SYSTEM-MIB?

ALVARION-SYSTEM-MIB is a proprietary Alvarion wireless-device MIB providing core system identification and operational status information, acting as a vendor-specific extension of the standard system group. It exposes device identity and configuration data such as product name/flavor, serial number, MAC address, and WAN IP address, alongside operational status like uptime and firmware/boot/hardware revisions. This is a direct hardware/software status MIB: systemUpTime tracks device availability and reveals unexpected reboots, systemFirmwareRevision, systemBootRevision, and systemHardwareRevision let an admin confirm software and hardware versions for inventory and compliance, and systemConfigurationVersion flags whether the running configuration matches an expected baseline. It complements the standard MIB-II system group (sysUpTime, sysName, etc.) with Alvarion-specific product and hardware detail, and is foundational to other Alvarion product MIBs. The ALVARION-SYSTEM-MIB MIB is deployed on Alvarion wireless broadband base stations and subscriber units, providing the baseline device-identity and uptime data used across NMS dashboards.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in ALVARION-SYSTEM-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

Alvarion wireless broadband base station/subscriber unit

Monitoring Examples

An administrator would poll systemUpTime to detect an unexpected reboot on a remote subscriber unit, then cross-check systemFirmwareRevision, systemHardwareRevision, and systemSerialNumber against an inventory database to catch devices running outdated firmware. A change in systemConfigurationVersion without a corresponding scheduled maintenance window would flag an unauthorized or unexpected configuration change. systemWanPortIpAddress and systemMacAddress help confirm the device's network identity matches inventory records.

What Can Be Monitored

system uptime
firmware/boot/hardware revision
serial number and product identification
configuration version
WAN IP and MAC address

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using systemUpTime OID:

Select an Alvarion (Cambium) wireless broadband access points/base station (legacy) 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 systemUpTime into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, then select it and click OK. It reports the how long the system has been running since its last restart. 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 Counter32-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the value is unexpectedly low (e.g. under 10 minutes), since that indicates a recent, possibly unplanned, reboot or restart. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
