What Is ATM-SOFT-PVC-TRAP-MIB?
ATM-SOFT-PVC-TRAP-MIB is a vendor MIB defining SNMP trap notifications for ATM Soft PVC (Permanent Virtual Circuit) state changes, covering events such as circuit setup failure and teardown. As a traps-only module, it doesn't expose ongoing performance counters but instead reports discrete state-change events for ATM soft PVCs, dynamically signaled virtual circuits that emulate static PVCs. It is used to monitor the software/protocol status of ATM virtual circuit provisioning, alerting an admin the moment a soft PVC fails to establish or is torn down unexpectedly, which is critical since ATM soft PVCs often carry latency-sensitive traffic. It depends on the standard ATM-MIB (RFC 2515) for VCL/VPL indexing conventions that the traps reference. It is typically deployed on ATM switches and edge routers in legacy carrier or enterprise ATM networks requiring real-time fault notification for virtual circuit failures. Engineers can download the ATM-SOFT-PVC-TRAP-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in ATM-SOFT-PVC-TRAP-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
- ATM switches
- ATM edge routers
Monitoring Examples
No specific object or trap names were provided for this module, so a precise polling example cannot be constructed with grounded identifiers. In general, an NMS receiving this MIB's traps would be alerted the moment a soft PVC setup-failure or teardown event occurs on a given VCL/VPL, prompting an admin to check the affected ATM interface and virtual circuit endpoint for a signaling or connectivity fault. Repeated setup-failure traps for the same circuit would point to a persistent signaling or provisioning mismatch between endpoints.
What Can Be Monitored
- ATM soft PVC setup failure events
- ATM soft PVC teardown events
- ATM virtual circuit state changes
