ERICSSON-ALARM-TC-MIB

Description: Defines textual conventions for alarm severity, state, and event type objects used across Ericsson alarm MIBs.

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.

ERICSSON-ALARM-TC-MIB is an Ericsson textual-conventions module that defines shared alarm severity, alarm state, and event-type enumerations used by the ERICSSON-ALARM-MIB and other Ericsson fault-management MIBs across their telecom network equipment. As a TC-only module it defines no runtime objects itself, so it does not directly expose hardware or software status data. Its role is to standardize how Ericsson's actual alarm-reporting MIBs represent fault conditions, which within Ericsson's broader fault-management framework cover hardware faults (e.g., power, fan, or card failures) and software/process faults raised as alarms carrying these severity/state values. It is explicitly documented as feeding the ERICSSON-ALARM-MIB and related Ericsson SNMP Fault Management documentation, and engineers integrating that alarm pipeline commonly keep an ERICSSON-ALARM-TC-MIB reference handy to confirm the exact enumeration values expected by downstream systems. It is deployed across Ericsson telecom network infrastructure (routers, RAN and core network nodes) wherever SNMP-based fault/alarm monitoring is used.

This is a textual-conventions-only module with no runtime data objects, so no concrete monitoring scenario applies here; the ERICSSON-ALARM-MIB and related Ericsson fault-management MIBs import these severity/state enumerations to represent hardware and software alarm conditions consistently.

Ericsson alarm management textual conventions for standardized alarm type definitions mapped to X.733 and 3GPP Alarm IRP.
