sonetPathBIPs

Module: Fore-SONET-MIB

OID (symbolic): Fore-SONET-MIB::sonetPathBIPs

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.326.2.2.1.1.4.2.3.1.4

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter32

Access: read-only

Description: The number of Path BIP-8 (Bit Interleaved Parity) errors that have been detected since the last time the port has been reset. A path BIP-8 error is detected by comparing the path BIP-8 byte (B3) extracted from the current frame, to the path BIP-8 computed for the previous frame.

What is sonetPathBIPs?

Counts Path BIP-8 parity errors detected on this port since its last reset, found by comparing the path BIP-8 byte (B3) of the current frame against the value computed from the previous frame. An admin watches this for path-layer signal quality issues distinct from Section (sonetSectionBIPs) or Line (sonetLineBIPs) layer errors.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.326.2.2.1.1.4.2.3.1.4
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> Fore-SONET-MIB::sonetPathBIPs

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.326.2.2.1.1.4.2.3.1.4.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> Fore-SONET-MIB::sonetPathBIPs.1
