What Is ATMEDIA-MIB?

ATMEDIA-MIB is a vendor MIB (root arcs atmedia/atmcrypt) for ATmedia media/crypto gateway devices, which handle bearer channel allocation and conversion, in some deployments with built-in encryption. It exposes device identity and inventory data - product ID, serial number, hostname, contact/location - together with explicit hardware and software version/description fields and an interface count. Because it directly surfaces acSoftVersion/acSoftDescr and acHardVersion/acHardDescr alongside acSerialNumber, it is squarely useful for confirming firmware and hardware revision and asset identity as part of ongoing hardware/software status monitoring, with acIfNumber giving a basic interface-capacity check. It loosely parallels standard SNMPv2 system-group concepts (like sysDescr/sysContact) in a vendor-specific tree rather than depending on a named external standard MIB. The ATMEDIA-MIB MIB is typically deployed on ATmedia encryption/media gateway appliances used for secure telephony or ATM/media bearer-channel handling.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in ATMEDIA-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

  • ATmedia media/crypto gateway appliance

Monitoring Examples

An admin would poll acProductID, acSerialNumber, and acHostname to positively identify a specific unit, then check acSoftVersion/acSoftDescr and acHardVersion/acHardDescr after a firmware upgrade to confirm the expected version is now running. acIfNumber can be tracked over time to detect an unexpected change in the number of active interfaces on the gateway.

What Can Be Monitored

  • hardware/software version and description
  • serial number and product ID
  • hostname/contact/location
  • interface count

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using acInterfaceStatusRxCells OID:

Select an ATmedia media/crypto gateway appliance as the target host to create a monitor — the SNMP service should be up and running on it. Click New Monitor, then check SNMP Custom on the Favorites tab, click Next, and confirm the host. On the next page, click Select... to open the built-in SNMP MIB Browser and type acInterfaceStatusRxCells into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, selecting the specific row/instance you want to monitor since this is a table column, then select it and click OK. It reports the number of cells received by the physical interface. On the monitor's Main parameters page you can set the target's SNMP port (default 161), credentials, polling interval, and other settings — see the SNMP Monitor help for details. On the State conditions and Alerting tabs, configure when the monitor should change state and trigger an alert; since this is a Counter64-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the counter increases sharply between polls relative to its normal baseline, since an unexpected spike often reflects a real change in traffic or activity. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
