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 CIENA-CES-ALARM-MIB?

CIENA-CES-ALARM-MIB is a Ciena, Inc. proprietary MIB (built on ALARM-MIB/ITU-ALARM-TC-MIB) defining alarm objects for the CES (Carrier Ethernet Services?) platform. Its objects cover an alarm cut-off action, an alarm table (description, threshold, leak, GPO — General Purpose Output relay, every/repeat setting, minor/major/critical escalation, sense, trigger), an alarm-severity table, and an active-alarm table (severity, invoke ID, managed-object class/interpretation/instance, acknowledge flag, description). As a status/notification MIB it lets an administrator review active alarms and their escalation severity on a Ciena CES platform. It is deployed on Ciena, Inc. Carrier Ethernet Services (CES) platforms. Engineers can download the CIENA-CES-ALARM-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in CIENA-CES-ALARM-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

Monitoring Examples

An administrator checks cienaCesAlarmActiveTable and cienaCesAlarmActiveSeverity to review active alarm severity on a Ciena CES platform.
