Description: Manages traffic filters and access control rules on Nortel Centillion ATM and LAN switch 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 CENTILLION-FILTERS-MIB?

CENTILLION-FILTERS-MIB is a Bay Networks (Centillion ATM/LAN switch heritage, later Nortel) proprietary MIB configuring packet-filtering rules on Centillion switches. Its filter-group table, keyed by name/index, records status, match criteria, type, offset, value, forward flag, next-filter-on-match/fail, additional/monitor destination ports, an alternate destination, while a port table (card/port index, status, group name) and a NetBIOS-specific filter-port table apply groups to physical ports. As a configuration/security MIB it lets an administrator confirm which filter rules and destination ports are applied to a given Centillion switch port. It is deployed on Bay Networks (Nortel) Centillion ATM/LAN switches. Engineers can download the CENTILLION-FILTERS-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in CENTILLION-FILTERS-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) Centillion ATM/LAN switches

Monitoring Examples

An administrator checks filterGroupMatch and filterPortGroupName to confirm the correct packet-filter rule is bound to a port on a Bay Networks (Nortel) Centillion switch.

What Can Be Monitored

  • packet-filter rule and port-binding configuration
