Description: Manages NTP time synchronization configuration and stratum status on Bay Networks (Nortel) router platforms.

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 BayNetworks-NTP-MIB?

BayNetworks-NTP-MIB is a Bay Networks (later Nortel) proprietary MIB for managing Network Time Protocol synchronization on Bay Networks router/switch platforms. No module description or sample objects were provided in the source, but by convention such a MIB would expose NTP server/peer association status and the device's current clock stratum and synchronization state. It is relevant to software/system-clock health -- confirming synchronization state and stratum reveals whether the device's system clock is properly disciplined, which matters for accurate log timestamps and time-dependent security functions. It conceptually parallels the IETF standard NTP-MIB despite being a Bay Networks/Nortel proprietary implementation. It would have been deployed on Bay Networks/Nortel routers and switches (e.g., BayRS/Passport-era platforms) requiring synchronized time for logging and security correlation, a need served by BayNetworks-NTP-MIB SNMP monitoring of peer association and stratum status.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in BayNetworks-NTP-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

Bay Networks/Nortel router or switch

Monitoring Examples

No object names were provided in sample_objects for this module, so specific polling targets cannot be confirmed from source; typically an admin would check NTP peer/server association status and stratum level to confirm the device clock is synchronized, flagging an unreachable or unexpectedly high-stratum association as a time-sync fault. This description is grounded in NTP's stated purpose rather than confirmed object names.

What Can Be Monitored

NTP synchronization state
NTP server/peer association status
clock stratum level
