ASCEND-MIBDIALMOD-MIB

Description: Manages dial-up modem pool configuration and call statistics on Ascend access 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.

This proprietary Ascend Communications MIB manages dial-up modem pool configuration and call statistics on Ascend access equipment used for dial-in remote access. It exposes configuration data for the modem pool along with per-modem and pool-wide call statistics. It is a hardware/software status MIB for the modem bank — an operator checks per-modem port status and call statistics to confirm modems are answering calls successfully, and would spot a modem stuck in a busy or fault state as a hardware problem needing attention. It is Ascend-proprietary but conceptually parallels dial-control concepts later standardized in IETF MIBs like the Dial Control MIB (RFC 2128). It was deployed on legacy Ascend/Lucent remote access concentrators (e.g., MAX/TNT series) providing large-scale dial-up access. Engineers can download the ASCEND-MIBDIALMOD-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

No specific object or table names were included in the sampled instrumentation for this module, so a concrete polling example can't be tied to real OIDs; in general, an operator would monitor per-modem port status and call statistics in the modem pool to confirm modems are answering and completing calls, investigating any modem repeatedly reporting a fault or busy state as a likely hardware failure.

Provides dial modifier profile parameters for call routing on Ascend access equipment.
