Description: Extends LLDP with IEEE 802.3 TLVs for link speed, duplex, and power-via-MDI on Avaya/Nortel ERS.
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 BAY-STACK-LLDP-EXT-DOT3-MIB?
BAY-STACK-LLDP-EXT-DOT3-MIB is a Nortel/Avaya extension to the standard IEEE 802.3 LLDP extension MIB, adding vendor-specific handling of local and remote power-via-MDI (PoE) TLVs on BayStack ERS switches. It exposes local and remote power tables recording power type, source, priority, and requested/allocated power values for both the local switch port and the connected remote device. Its monitoring value is directly hardware-related: by tracking PSE allocated power versus PD requested power, an administrator can detect PoE power budget exhaustion or a connected device not receiving its requested power, which is a common cause of powered-device (e.g., phone or camera) failures. It explicitly depends on and extends the standard LLDP-EXT-DOT3 MIB. It is deployed on PoE-capable Avaya/Nortel ERS switches supporting phones, APs, and cameras over Ethernet. Engineers can download the BAY-STACK-LLDP-EXT-DOT3-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in BAY-STACK-LLDP-EXT-DOT3-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
- Avaya/Nortel BayStack Ethernet Routing Switch (ERS)
- PoE-powered endpoint devices (phones, APs, cameras)
Monitoring Examples
An administrator would compare bsLldpXdot3LocPowerTable's bsLldpXdot3LocPSEAllocatedPowerValue against the remote device's requested value in bsLldpXdot3RemPowerTable's bsLldpXdot3RemPowerType/bsLldpXdot3RemPowerPriority entries to see if a connected PoE phone or camera is being under-powered. A mismatch between bsLldpXdot3LocPDRequestedPowerValue and the allocated power, flagged via bsLldpXDot3Notifications, would point to a power-budget shortfall on that switch.
What Can Be Monitored
- PSE allocated power
- PD requested power
- local/remote power source
- power priority
- PoE power type
