Description: Provides SNMP objects for monitoring Ethernet interface statistics, errors, and link state.
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 ETHERNET-MIB?
ETHERNET-MIB is an Exalt Communications proprietary MIB (imports from ExaltComm/ExaltComProducts) configuring Ethernet ports on Exalt microwave radio link equipment. Its objects cover the number of Ethernet channels/interfaces, per-port function (traffic/management/both), operating mode, alarm and mute state, and rate-limiting configuration (type and limit). As a configuration/hardware-status MIB it lets an administrator confirm an Ethernet port's function assignment and rate limit are correctly configured, and check its alarm state when diagnosing a link problem. It is deployed on Exalt Communications microwave radio link equipment. Engineers can download the ETHERNET-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in ETHERNET-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
- Exalt Communications microwave radio link equipment
Monitoring Examples
An administrator checks the alarm object for a radio's Ethernet interface alongside its configured rateLimit to confirm whether a throughput complaint is due to an active alarm condition or an intentional rate cap.
What Can Be Monitored
- Ethernet port function/mode
- alarm/mute state
- rate-limit configuration
