Description: Defines trap and notification objects for Chromatis optical networking equipment.
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 ChrTrap-MIB?
ChrTrap-MIB is a vendor MIB from Chromatis Networks (an optical/metro networking equipment vendor later acquired by Lucent) that defines trap and notification objects used for fault and event reporting on Chromatis optical networking systems. No module description or sample objects were available in the supplied source excerpt, so specific trap object names cannot be confirmed, but as a dedicated trap MIB it would be expected to carry alarm severity, affected entity, and event description information rather than polled configuration data. It would be used primarily to monitor fault and status events on the underlying optical hardware, such as alarms tied to card failures, link/port state changes, or environmental conditions, feeding a fault-management system rather than being polled for steady-state counters. It would likely depend on companion Chromatis chassis/shelf/interface MIBs that define the entities referenced by these traps. It would have been deployed in metro optical transport networks using Chromatis equipment. Engineers can download the ChrTrap-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in ChrTrap-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
- Chromatis optical/metro networking equipment
Monitoring Examples
No specific trap or object names were available in the supplied excerpt, so a concrete example naming real objects cannot be given without inventing identifiers. As a trap-definition module, its practical use would be an NMS registering to receive SNMP traps from Chromatis equipment and correlating them against the affected shelf/card/port to raise a fault ticket. Confirming exact trap OIDs would require the full MIB source.
