ASCEND-MIBREDUNDANCYSTATS-MIB

Description: Tracks redundancy-related switchover events and 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.

ASCEND-MIBREDUNDANCYSTATS-MIB is a proprietary Ascend Communications MIB that tracks redundancy switchover events and related statistics on Ascend access equipment. It exposes historical/event data such as switchover counts, timestamps, and causes, complementing the current-state data found in the vendor's redundant-hardware MIB. It is a hardware-status MIB in the sense that repeated or unexpected switchovers are strong evidence of a flapping or failing hardware module, even when the current active unit looks healthy. It is used together with ASCEND-MIBREDHM-MIB, which supplies the live active/standby state that this module's statistics summarize over time. It was deployed in the same chassis-based Ascend access platforms that rely on hot-standby hardware for availability. Engineers can download the ASCEND-MIBREDUNDANCYSTATS-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

An operator would poll the switchover statistics table (an ascendRedundancyStatsTable/ascendRedundancyStatsEntry style structure) to see the cumulative switchover count and time since the last switchover, and a rising switchover count with a recent timestamp would prompt investigation into a specific module suspected of intermittent hardware faults. Because no sample objects were provided, these names are inferred from the stated statistics purpose rather than taken from the actual MIB source.
