What Is CIENA-WS-PTP-PLUGGABLE-MIB?

CIENA-WS-PTP-PLUGGABLE-MIB is a YANG-derived SMI module from Ciena that describes the pluggable coherent PTP (point-to-point) transceiver modules used on the line ports of Ciena WaveServer optical transport platforms. It augments the base ciena-ws-ptp module with transceiver-specific attributes and status, focusing on the optical signal carried by the pluggable at the client port. The data it exposes centers on hardware fault and signal-integrity status of the optical module itself, most notably transmit-side loss-of-signal and loss-of-lock conditions that indicate a failed or degraded pluggable, fiber break, or clock synchronization problem. Because pluggables are auto-provisioned at installation, this MIB effectively lets operators confirm a newly inserted module is transmitting cleanly and remains locked without manual configuration. It depends on the parent ciena-ws-ptp module for the object it augments and is typically deployed by carriers and data-center-interconnect operators monitoring high-capacity coherent optical line systems. Engineers can download the CIENA-WS-PTP-PLUGGABLE-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in CIENA-WS-PTP-PLUGGABLE-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

  • Ciena WaveServer optical transport platform
  • pluggable coherent PTP transceiver module

Monitoring Examples

An operator polls cwsPtpAugPtpPluggableTxStatusTable / cwsPtpAugPtpPluggableTxStatusEntry across all installed line-side pluggables to build a per-port health map, checking cwsPtpPluggableTxStatusLossOfSignal and cwsPtpPluggableTxStatusLossOfLock for each entry. A LossOfSignal flip to true on a specific entry indicates the transceiver has stopped transmitting, often due to a laser failure or unseated module, while LossOfLock without LossOfSignal suggests a clock or framing synchronization issue upstream. Correlating these two flags across the cienaWsPtpPluggableObjects subtree lets NOC staff quickly isolate whether an optical line fault is signal-level or timing-level before dispatching a technician.

What Can Be Monitored

  • transmit loss of signal
  • transmit loss of lock
  • pluggable transceiver status per line port
  • optical signal integrity
