Description: Manages Cisco DMT-based ADSL line configuration, training, and performance statistics.

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 CISCO-ADSL-DMT-LINE-MIB?

CISCO-ADSL-DMT-LINE-MIB is a Cisco enterprise extension of the standard ADSL-LINE-MIB, adding DMT (Discrete Multi-Tone) modem-specific objects not already covered by the base standard, and mirroring its table structure table-for-table. Its data covers physical-layer line configuration and status for ADSL DMT lines and channels, including framing, operational state, and forward-error-correction (FEC)/codeword parameters, for both the central-office (ATU-C) and remote (ATU-R) ends. Its monitoring emphasis is on physical-link hardware status: cAdslAtucDmtState directly reports whether the DSL physical layer is up, while the channel tables' FEC/codeword settings affect error-correction performance on a noisy line. The module description explicitly states this MIB shadows the IETF ADSL-LINE-MIB and must be read alongside it. It is used on Cisco DSL access equipment (DSLAMs/routers) to provision and monitor ADSL DMT subscriber lines. Network engineers evaluating or troubleshooting this functionality can download the CISCO-ADSL-DMT-LINE-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in CISCO-ADSL-DMT-LINE-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

  • Cisco DSL access equipment (routers/DSLAMs) supporting ADSL DMT lines

Monitoring Examples

cAdslAtucDmtPhysTable's cAdslAtucDmtState can be polled to confirm a subscriber's ADSL line is in a trained/showtime state versus stuck initializing or down, indicating a physical-layer or wiring problem. cAdslAtucDmtChanTable's cAdslAtucDmtChanFecSize and ChanCodewordSize show the FEC parameters negotiated on the line, which combined with the base ADSL-LINE-MIB's error counters help diagnose a noisy line that keeps retraining or is running at reduced FEC overhead.

What Can Be Monitored

  • ADSL DMT line operational state
  • line framing/overhead configuration
  • FEC size and codeword size per channel
  • ATU-C/ATU-R line and channel parameters
