Description: Elfiq Networks FOVE (Failover) module MIB for managing WAN link failover policies and redundancy configuration.
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 ELFIQ-MODULE-FOVE-MIB?
ELFIQ-MODULE-FOVE-MIB is a vendor-specific MIB from Elfiq Networks covering the FOVE (Failover) module used for WAN link redundancy and failover policy on Elfiq link-balancing appliances. It exposes a per-interface failover table describing which interfaces participate in failover and their type, plus local and remote failover state, remote peer identity, and remote management IP. This directly supports monitoring the software/operational status of the failover pairing itself, essentially the availability and synchronization health of the redundant link relationship between two Elfiq units, along with notification configuration for failover events. The module description notes it is a standard component of Elfiq's broader common failover MIB suite, implying dependency on sibling Elfiq MIBs for full failover management. It is deployed on WAN link load-balancing/failover appliances, typically at branch or edge sites with dual ISP or WAN connections, where ELFIQ-MODULE-FOVE-MIB SNMP monitoring confirms the failover pairing stays synchronized.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in ELFIQ-MODULE-FOVE-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
- Elfiq Networks WAN link load-balancer/failover appliance
Monitoring Examples
Polling foveTable/foveEntry indexed by foveIntIndex exposes foveIntUsed and foveIntType to identify which interfaces participate in failover, while foveLocalState and foveRemoteState reveal whether the local unit and its failover peer (identified by foveRemoteId at foveRemoteMgmtIP) are in sync. An admin monitoring foveRemoteSeq alongside foveRemoteState could detect a stale sequence number or a remote state stuck in a non-active value, indicating the failover partner has dropped out of communication and a WAN link switchover may not synchronize properly.
What Can Be Monitored
- interface failover participation
- local failover state
- remote peer failover state
- remote peer identity and management IP
- failover sequence/sync status
