What Is CYAN-SHELF-MIB?
CYAN-SHELF-MIB is a vendor-specific MIB from Cyan (an optical networking/packet-optical transport vendor) that monitors chassis shelf inventory, power, cooling, and slot occupancy for Cyan optical transport hardware. It provides an inventory-style table describing each shelf's identity, asset tag, MAC address, and bay location alongside environmental/health indicators. This MIB is squarely a hardware-status monitoring module: it directly exposes fan speed and fan-filter replacement interval for cooling health, days-since-last-replacement for maintenance/lifecycle tracking, and an autoprovisioning flag reflecting the shelf's operational/software provisioning state, all of which are core signals for detecting overheating risk, aging hardware, or a shelf that failed to auto-provision correctly. It sits alongside other Cyan enterprise MIBs covering card- and port-level detail within the same optical chassis, of which the shelf MIB provides the top-level container view. It is typically deployed in optical transport/packet-optical network elements at telco central offices or carrier points of presence. Engineers can download the CYAN-SHELF-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in CYAN-SHELF-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
- Cyan packet-optical transport chassis
- Cyan optical network element shelf
Monitoring Examples
An operator would poll cyanShelfTable and its cyanShelfFanSpeed column across all cyanShelfEntry rows to detect a cooling fan slowing down or stopping, a leading indicator of thermal risk to the cards installed in that shelf. cyanShelfFanFilterReplacingIntervalDays combined with cyanShelfDaysSinceLastReplacement would be used to schedule preventive filter maintenance before airflow degrades. cyanShelfAutoprovisioningFlag would be checked after inserting a new shelf to confirm it came up and auto-provisioned correctly, and cyanShelfAssetTag/cyanShelfBaseMacAddress used for inventory reconciliation against asset-management records.
What Can Be Monitored
- fan speed
- fan filter replacement interval/age
- shelf autoprovisioning status
- shelf/bay identification and asset tag
- base MAC address
- days since last hardware replacement
