CIENA-CES-TWAMP-MIB

Description: Manages Two-Way Active Measurement Protocol (TWAMP) for latency testing on Ciena CES 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.

CIENA-CES-TWAMP-MIB is a Ciena-specific MIB for configuring and running Two-Way Active Measurement Protocol (TWAMP) tests on CES Carrier Ethernet switches, an active-measurement technique for round-trip latency, jitter and packet loss between two TWAMP-capable endpoints. Its data covers test-session configuration and the resulting performance-measurement results/statistics. Its monitoring value is exposing real-time and historical latency/jitter/loss measurements used to validate SLA compliance and detect network-path degradation, rather than reporting device hardware faults directly. It implements the standard TWAMP protocol (RFC 5357) as a Ciena-specific management MIB, so results depend on TWAMP reflector/sender interoperability. It is deployed in carrier Ethernet service assurance, where TWAMP tests run continuously between edge devices to verify delivered latency/loss against SLA targets. Engineers can download the CIENA-CES-TWAMP-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

No sample object names were included for this module, so specific table/OID names can't be cited, but based on its purpose an operator would configure a TWAMP test session (source/destination, test interval) and then poll the resulting round-trip delay, jitter and packet-loss statistics for that session. A sustained rise in measured round-trip delay or packet loss on a given session would indicate congestion or a fault somewhere along that network path.
