Description: Enterasys Networks MIB for configuring probe and tracked objects used in IP SLA and state-based routing policies.

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 ENTERASYS-TRACKED-OBJECTS-MIB?

ENTERASYS-TRACKED-OBJECTS-MIB is an Enterasys Networks proprietary MIB for configuring IP SLA-style probes and 'tracked objects' used to drive state-based routing or failover policies on Enterasys devices. It exposes resource-capacity data (maximum vs. currently-used objects, probes, active probes, sessions, and interface associations) along with a probe configuration table. Its main monitoring value is software resource-utilization visibility: how many tracking probes and sessions are configured versus the device's supported maximum, which is critical for capacity planning before adding new tracked routes or objects. No explicit dependency on another standard MIB is stated, though the feature parallels functionality found in Cisco's IP SLA and Object Tracking mechanisms. It is used in Enterasys routers/switches implementing policy-based routing or high-availability designs that key off reachability probes. Engineers can download the ENTERASYS-TRACKED-OBJECTS-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in ENTERASYS-TRACKED-OBJECTS-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

  • Enterasys/Extreme Networks routers and switches

Monitoring Examples

An admin would compare etsysTrackedObjectsProbesUsed to etsysTrackedObjectsMaxProbes and etsysTrackedObjectsSessionsUsed to etsysTrackedObjectsMaxSessions to see if the device is nearing its tracking capacity before configuring additional probes. Walking etsysTrackedObjectsProbeTable/etsysTrackedObjectsProbeEntry shows each configured probe's parameters, letting the admin confirm a failover-triggering probe is defined as expected. A high etsysTrackedObjectsIntfAssocUsed relative to etsysTrackedObjectsMaxIntfAssoc would indicate the interface-association limit is close to being exhausted.

What Can Be Monitored

  • tracked object count vs. maximum
  • probe count vs. maximum
  • active probe (ACV) usage
  • tracking session count vs. maximum
  • interface association usage

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using etsysTrackedObjectsSessionStateChanges OID:

Select an Enterasys Networks router/Layer 3 switch (legacy, later Extreme Networks) (IP SLA-style tracked object probes) 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 etsysTrackedObjectsSessionStateChanges 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. The number of times the etsysTrackedObjectsSessionState object has changed state. 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.
