Description: Fore Systems Frame Relay network module MIB providing configuration and statistics for Frame Relay interface modules in ForeRunner ATM switches.

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 Fore-Framnetmod-MIB?

This is a Fore Systems proprietary MIB for the Frame Relay network module (FRAM netmod) used in ForeRunner ATM switches, providing configuration and statistics for Frame Relay interface modules. Its core content is the nmFramNetmodConfTable, which holds configuration information for the Frame Relay network module hardware installed in the switch. Its monitoring value is centered on the operational configuration state of the Frame Relay module itself, letting an administrator confirm the module is correctly configured, which is a prerequisite for diagnosing Frame Relay circuit or interface problems on that hardware. It is a self-contained proprietary MIB with no significant external standards dependency noted beyond general Frame Relay concepts. It is deployed on ForeRunner ATM switches equipped with Frame Relay network interface modules in carrier or enterprise ATM/Frame Relay networks. Engineers can download the Fore-Framnetmod-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in Fore-Framnetmod-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

  • Fore Systems ForeRunner ATM switch

Monitoring Examples

An administrator would poll the nmFramNetmodConfTable to confirm the configuration parameters of an installed Frame Relay netmod card match the intended provisioning, such as verifying the module's settings after a card swap. A configuration entry with unexpected or default values would suggest the module was not properly reprovisioned after replacement. No further sample object names were provided for this module, so additional identifiers cannot be confirmed here.
