Import MIBs, browse SNMP OIDs, create custom SNMP monitors, configure alerts, and monitor any SNMP-enabled network device from a single console.

CIENA-WS-SERVICE-MIB is a Ciena enterprise MIB that manages optical transport service provisioning on the Ciena Waveserver platform, representing services such as Ethernet Private Line connections carried across client ports. It exposes tables identifying each service (ID, name, description) and tracking each service's operational state. Its monitoring value centers on service-level status: operators can confirm which services are provisioned, whether they map correctly to a service domain, and whether a given service is currently up, degraded, or down, which is critical for verifying that customer-facing optical transport circuits are delivering traffic. It is a Ciena-proprietary MIB specific to the Waveserver's service model rather than an IETF standard. It is deployed in optical/DWDM transport networks offering point-to-point Ethernet Private Line services over Waveserver client ports, with operators typically downloading the CIENA-WS-SERVICE-MIB file to load into their MIB browser for this monitoring.

An operator would poll cwsServiceIdName and cwsServiceIdDescription via cwsServiceIdTable to identify a specific provisioned service, then check the corresponding entry in cwsServiceStateTable to confirm its operational state; a service unexpectedly transitioning from an up to a down/degraded state in cwsServiceStateTable would indicate a fault in the underlying optical path or client port.

Manages Ethernet Private Line services that carry traffic via client ports in Ciena Waveserver systems.
