Description: Eltex MES bridge security MIB for managing port-based security features including dynamic ARP inspection and IP source guard.

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 ELTEX-MES-BRIDGE-SECURITY?

ELTEX-MES-BRIDGE-SECURITY is an Eltex vendor-private MIB that manages Layer 2 bridge security features on Eltex MES-series Carrier Ethernet switches, organized under the eltMesBridgeSecurity subtree with dedicated branches for eltMesIpDhcpSnoop, eltMesPppoeIa, eltMesIpv6DhcpGuard, eltMesIpv6RaGuard, and eltMesIpArpInspect. It defines DHCP Snooping / PPPoE Intermediate Agent option-82 configuration objects such as eltIpDhcpOpt82CircuitIdSuboptionsCombination and eltIpDhcpOpt82PortCircuitId/RemoteId in the eltIpDhcpOpt82PortTable, plus per-port DHCP snooping rate-limit objects (using the EltDHCPSnoopRateLimitType convention) in eltIpDhcpSnoopPortTable, alongside separate control branches for IPv6 DHCP Guard, IPv6 RA Guard, and dynamic ARP inspection. This is a security-configuration MIB rather than a traffic-counter MIB, so monitoring it verifies that anti-spoofing and access-control features (DHCP snooping, ARP inspection, RA/DHCPv6 guard) remain enabled and correctly parameterized on each access port. It depends on IF-MIB for ifIndex/InterfaceIndex references, Q-BRIDGE-MIB for VlanId/PortList types, and the RADLAN-BRIDGE-SECURITY MIB for shared ARP-inspection objects, and is deployed on Eltex MES access/aggregation switches; administrators can download the ELTEX-MES-BRIDGE-SECURITY file to configure and audit these Layer 2 security controls.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in ELTEX-MES-BRIDGE-SECURITY. 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

  • Eltex MES series Carrier Ethernet switches

Monitoring Examples

An operator polls eltIpDhcpOpt82PortTable to confirm eltIpDhcpOpt82PortRowStatus is active(1) and the configured eltIpDhcpOpt82PortCircuitId matches provisioning records on subscriber-facing ports; a port unexpectedly showing a rate-limit value of 0 in the DHCP snooping table alongside eltMesIpArpInspect disabled would indicate the port has lost its anti-spoofing protections.

What Can Be Monitored

  • DHCP snooping per-port rate limit
  • PPPoE Intermediate Agent option-82 circuit/remote ID config
  • DHCPv6 Guard and RA Guard state
  • dynamic ARP inspection settings
  • option-82 suboption format/type
  • per-port DHCP snooping row status

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using eltPppoeIaPortStatsRxPADI OID:

Select an Eltex MES-series Carrier Ethernet switch (DHCP snooping/PPPoE IA/ARP inspection/RA guard) 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 eltPppoeIaPortStatsRxPADI into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, selecting the specific row/instance you want to monitor since this is a table column, then select it and click OK. It reports the total number of received PADI packets. 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.
