ASCEND-MIBATMATOM-MIB

Description: Manages ATM Any Transport over MPLS (AToM) pseudowire parameters on Ascend equipment.

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.

ASCEND-MIBATMATOM-MIB is a vendor-specific MIB from Ascend Communications covering ATM Any Transport over MPLS (AToM), a pseudowire/circuit-emulation technology area that carries ATM cells or frames transparently across an MPLS core. Based on its name, it is expected to expose configuration and status of ATM AToM pseudowire connections, including the mapping between an ATM virtual circuit and its corresponding MPLS pseudowire, and per-pseudowire operational state. Its monitoring relevance would be in confirming pseudowire operational status - whether an ATM circuit is being successfully emulated end-to-end across the MPLS network - which reveals faults such as a pseudowire down condition that would silently break the ATM service without alerting on the ATM interface itself. No module description or sample objects were provided, so specific object names and any dependency on standard PW-MIB/MPLS conventions cannot be confirmed from available data, though such a relationship would be typical for this technology area. It would be deployed on Ascend (later Lucent/Avaya) edge routers providing ATM-over-MPLS pseudowire services in service-provider networks. Engineers can download the ASCEND-MIBATMATOM-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

No sample_objects or module description text were available for this MIB in the supplied data, so specific object or table names cannot be cited without inventing them. A plausible monitoring scenario, consistent with the AToM technology area, would involve polling per-pseudowire operational status to detect a pseudowire that has gone down while its underlying ATM interface remains up. Because the source data provides no concrete objects for this module, this must remain a general, non-specific description.
