Description: Configures and tracks OSPF routing protocol state on Ciena CES Carrier Ethernet switches.

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-OSPF-MIB?

CIENA-CES-OSPF-MIB is a vendor-specific MIB from Ciena that extends the standard OSPF MIB with additional objects for Ciena's Carrier Ethernet Switch (CES) product line. It belongs to the routing/OSPF protocol area and exposes OSPF-related configuration and operational state specific to Ciena's implementation, layered on top of the base OSPF-MIB objects such as areas, neighbors, and interfaces. Its monitoring value is primarily software/protocol status: OSPF adjacency and area state reflect the health of the routing control plane rather than physical hardware, and instability here is often the first sign of a network fault. It explicitly depends on and extends the IETF OSPF-MIB, so it cannot be fully interpreted without that base MIB. It is deployed on Ciena CES carrier Ethernet switches in service-provider and metro networks running OSPF for Layer 3 routing. Engineers can download the CIENA-CES-OSPF-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

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

Monitoring Examples

No sample object names were provided for this module in the input, so specific object identifiers cannot be cited honestly; in general terms, an extension MIB like this would be used alongside standard OSPF-MIB neighbor and area tables to add Ciena-specific OSPF state, and instability in OSPF adjacency or area state would be the key fault signal an operator watches for.

What Can Be Monitored

OSPF neighbor adjacency state
OSPF area status

cienaCesOspfMIB	1.3.6.1.4.1.1271.2.1.19			This MIB module is for the Extension of the OSPF MIB for CIENA Products
cienaCesOspfMIBObjects	1.3.6.1.4.1.1271.2.1.19.1

T/F cienaCesOspfRFC1583Comp	1.3.6.1.4.1.1271.2.1.19.1.1.1	TruthValue	read-only	Indicates metrics used to choose among multiple AS-external-LSAs. When RFC1583Compatibility is set to TRUE, only cost is used when choosing among multiple AS-external-LSAs advertising the same destination. When RFC1583Compatibility is set to FALSE, preference is driven first by type of path using cost only to break ties. In order to minimize the chance of routing loops, all OSPF routers in an OSPF routing domain should have RFC1583Compatibility set identically. When there are routers present that have not been updated with the functionality specified in RFC2328 Section 16.4.1, all routers should have RFC1583Compatibility set to TRUE. Otherwise, all routers should have RFC1583Compatibility set to FALSE, preventing all routing loops.
