Description: Extended LAPB (Link Access Procedure Balanced) MIB providing vendor-specific extensions for LAPB protocol management.

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 ECLAPBEXT-MIB?

ECLAPBEXT-MIB is a vendor-specific (Eicon Technology) extension MIB for the LAPB (Link Access Procedure, Balanced) X.25 data-link protocol, providing per-port protocol counters beyond the standard base LAPB MIB. It exposes performance/fault counters for the LAPB link-layer state machine - counts of retransmissions and of specific control frames (SABM, DISC, DM, RNR) sent and received on each port. These counters serve to monitor the health of a LAPB/X.25 link: rising retransmission counts or unexpected DISC/DM frame activity indicate link instability, a misbehaving peer, or physical-layer problems, effectively functioning as a fault/performance monitoring tool for the WAN link's software protocol state rather than the hardware itself. It extends/complements the standard base LAPB MIB rather than replacing it, sitting under Eicon's private enterprise MIB tree. It was deployed on Eicon WAN adapters/routers providing X.25 connectivity, a now-legacy technology. Engineers can download the ECLAPBEXT-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in ECLAPBEXT-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

  • Eicon WAN adapter/router (X.25/LAPB interface)

Monitoring Examples

lapbCountersTable/lapbCountEntry, indexed by lapbCountPortRef, exposes lapbCountRetransmis - a climbing retransmission count on a given port signals an unstable or noisy X.25 link. lapbCountSABMTxs and lapbCountSABMRxs track link Set-Asynchronous-Balanced-Mode establishment attempts, so repeated SABM transmissions without matching responses would show up as link-setup failures. lapbCountDISCTxs/lapbCountDISCRxs and lapbCountDMsTxs/lapbCountDMsRxs reveal link disconnect and disconnected-mode events, letting an admin correlate a spike in these counters with a reported WAN outage on that port, while lapbCountRNRsTxs/RNRsRxs flag flow-control (Receiver Not Ready) conditions.

What Can Be Monitored

  • retransmission count per port
  • SABM frames sent/received
  • DISC frames sent/received
  • DM frames sent/received
  • RNR (flow control) frames sent/received
