Description: Manages MPLS Fast Reroute (FRR) tunnels and bypass paths for rapid traffic protection in MPLS networks.

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-IETF-FRR-MIB?

CISCO-IETF-FRR-MIB is Cisco's implementation of an IETF MPLS Fast Reroute (FRR) MIB, based on the IETF draft 'Fast Reroute Techniques in RSVP-TE' (draft-ietf-mpls-rsvp-lsp-fastreroute), used to manage rapid local protection of MPLS Traffic-Engineered LSPs via pre-established bypass tunnels. Per the underlying draft its object set covers FRR-protected tunnel state, backup/bypass tunnel associations, and protection-switching status, though no specific object names were available for this entry. Functionally it is a network-protocol/software-status MIB: it is used to confirm primary LSPs have active backup protection in place and to detect when FRR has switched traffic onto a bypass path, signaling an underlying link or node failure being masked by fast reroute. It is explicitly derived from and dependent on the cited IETF MPLS FRR draft, aligning Cisco's implementation with that specification's data model. It is deployed on Cisco MPLS provider-edge and core routers using RSVP-TE with Fast Reroute for sub-50ms failure protection. Engineers can download the CISCO-IETF-FRR-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in CISCO-IETF-FRR-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 MPLS provider-edge/core router

Monitoring Examples

No specific sample objects were provided for this MIB, so a concrete object-level polling scenario cannot be described honestly; based on its description, the MIB would typically be used to confirm which LSPs have FRR backup tunnels configured and to detect when traffic has failed over onto a bypass tunnel, indicating a protected link or node has failed.

What Can Be Monitored

  • FRR backup/bypass tunnel association (per module scope)
  • LSP protection-switching status (per module scope)

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using cmplsFrrLogTableCurrEntries OID:

Select a Cisco MPLS provider-edge/core router as the target host to create a monitor — the SNMP service should be up and running on it. Click New Monitor, then check SNMP Custom on the Favorites tab, click Next, and confirm the host. On the next page, click Select... to open the built-in SNMP MIB Browser and type cmplsFrrLogTableCurrEntries into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, then select it and click OK. Indicates the current number of entries in the FRR log table. On the monitor's Main parameters page you can set the target's SNMP port (default 161), credentials, polling interval, and other settings — see the SNMP Monitor help for details. On the State conditions and Alerting tabs, configure when the monitor should change state and trigger an alert; since this is a Counter32-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the counter increases sharply between polls relative to its normal baseline, since an unexpected spike often reflects a real change in traffic or activity. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
