What Is H3C-FC-TRACE-ROUTE-MIB?

H3C-FC-TRACE-ROUTE-MIB is an H3C (Hangzhou Huawei-3Com/New H3C) enterprise MIB for managing Fibre Channel (FC) traceroute functionality on H3C storage-area-network switches, used to discover the hop-by-hop path between nodes in an FC fabric, analogous to IP traceroute but for Fibre Channel/VSAN environments. It exposes a combined control-and-results table (h3cFcTraceRouteTable/Entry) letting an operator configure a trace by target VSAN, destination address, timeout, and aging interval, then read back administrative and operational status. It is used to monitor the operational health and reachability of Fibre Channel fabric paths — checking h3cFcTraceRouteOperStatus and receiving a trap via h3cFcTraceRouteTrapOnCompletion when a trace finishes — which can reveal FC fabric connectivity, zoning, or routing problems rather than classic CPU/temperature-type data. It depends on general Fibre Channel/VSAN addressing conventions and likely on companion H3C FC fabric-management MIBs for broader topology context. It is typically deployed on H3C Fibre Channel/FCoE SAN switches within storage-area-network environments to diagnose FC path issues. Engineers can download the H3C-FC-TRACE-ROUTE-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in H3C-FC-TRACE-ROUTE-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

H3C Fibre Channel/FCoE SAN switches

Monitoring Examples

A storage administrator would create an entry in h3cFcTraceRouteTable specifying h3cFcTraceRouteVsan, h3cFcTraceRouteAddressType/Address for the target FC node, and h3cFcTraceRouteTimeout, then set h3cFcTraceRouteAdminStatus to start the trace. Polling h3cFcTraceRouteOperStatus, or waiting for the h3cFcTraceRouteTrapOnCompletion notification, reveals whether the trace completed successfully or timed out, indicating a broken or congested path between the initiator and target in the FC fabric.

What Can Be Monitored

FC traceroute admin/operational status
target VSAN and destination address
trace timeout and aging interval
trace completion notifications

h3cFcTraceRouteEntry	1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.10.2.127.4.1.1.1.1		not-accessible	A trace route request entry that needs to be executed at the agent.
U32 h3cFcTraceRouteIndex	1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.10.2.127.4.1.1.1.1.1	Unsigned32	accessible-for-notify	The index of the current trace route entry. This object uniquely identifies a trace route request entry in a specified VSAN (Virtual Storage Area Network).
H3C h3cFcTraceRouteVsan	1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.10.2.127.4.1.1.1.1.2	H3cFcVsanIndex	read-create	The VSAN on which the trace route request will be executed. If the corresponding instance value of h3cFcTraceRouteOperStatus is 'inProgress', the object cannot be modified.
ADR h3cFcTraceRouteAddressType	1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.10.2.127.4.1.1.1.1.3	H3cFcAddressType	read-create	The type of the corresponding instance of h3cFcTraceRouteAddress object.
ADR h3cFcTraceRouteAddress	1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.10.2.127.4.1.1.1.1.4	H3cFcAddress	read-create	The address to which the route will be traced. This object will contain an 8-octet WWN (World Wide Name), if the value of the associated instance of h3cFcTraceRouteAddressType object is 'wwn'. This object will contain a 3-octet Fibre Channel ID, if the value of the associated instance of h3cFcTraceRouteAddressType object is 'fcid'.
U32 h3cFcTraceRouteTimeout	1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.10.2.127.4.1.1.1.1.5	Unsigned32	read-create	The value of timeout for this trace route request. If the corresponding instance value of h3cFcTraceRouteOperStatus object is 'inProgress', this object cannot be modified.

The object has two values: enable - Activate the entry. disable - Deactivate the entry. When the trace route entry is being executed, this object cannot be modified. If this object is being read, a value of 'enable' will be returned. When the execution finishes, the value of this object will be set to 'disable'.
