Description: Manages OC-3 ATM network interface configuration and performance on Ascend ATM 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.

What Is ASCEND-MIBOC3ATMNET-MIB?

ASCEND-MIBOC3ATMNET-MIB is a proprietary Ascend module managing OC-3 ATM network interface configuration and performance on Ascend's optical ATM equipment. It exposes configuration for OC-3 optical/ATM framing along with performance counters covering optical signal quality and ATM cell statistics at the network (line-side) interface. For monitoring, it is used to track hardware status of the optical interface — loss of signal, framing errors, and degraded optical performance — which are early indicators of fiber, transceiver, or line-card faults. It parallels IETF SONET-MIB and ATM-MIB concepts but is implemented as its own Ascend-specific object tree. It is deployed on ATM switches and access concentrators using OC-3 (155 Mbps) optical trunks in carrier backbone or aggregation networks. Network engineers evaluating or troubleshooting this functionality can download the ASCEND-MIBOC3ATMNET-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in ASCEND-MIBOC3ATMNET-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

  • Ascend ATM switch with OC-3 optical interfaces

Monitoring Examples

No sample_objects were provided for this module, so the scenario below is a general inference from its stated scope. An administrator would poll the OC-3 interface for loss-of-signal/framing-error counters and optical performance indicators, treating a rising error count as a sign of fiber degradation or a failing optical transceiver. This is typically monitored alongside lower-layer SONET/SDH path MIBs for full end-to-end optical path visibility.

What Can Be Monitored

  • OC-3 loss-of-signal/framing errors
  • optical signal quality
  • ATM cell statistics on OC-3 interface
  • interface operational status
