Description: Huawei dialer interface MIB for managing dial-on-demand routing, dialer profiles, and modem or ISDN connection configuration on Huawei routers.
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 HUAWEI-DIALER-MIB?
HUAWEI-DIALER-MIB is a Huawei-proprietary MIB for Huawei routers that manages dialer interfaces used for dial-on-demand routing (DDR), including dialer profiles and the configuration of modem or ISDN-based backup/dial connections. Its data covers configuration objects for dialer profile setup (which physical interfaces or channels a dialer binds to, dialing rules, idle timeouts) as well as operational-state objects reflecting whether a dial connection is currently up, idle, or in the process of dialing. As a WAN backup/DDR feature, it is used to monitor the software/connection status of on-demand links: whether a dialer interface has an active call, how long it has been idle before disconnecting, and connection failure counts, which serves as an availability indicator for backup WAN paths. It is closely related to Huawei's Multilink PPP handling (as reflected in the supplied module description, which actually documents MP bundle status), implying dialer interfaces commonly bundle with MP for aggregated dial-up bandwidth. It is typically deployed on branch-office or remote-site Huawei routers that use ISDN or analog modem dial-up as a primary or backup WAN connection, and administrators can download the HUAWEI-DIALER-MIB file to load its dialer objects into a MIB browser for monitoring.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in HUAWEI-DIALER-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
- Huawei routers with ISDN/modem WAN interfaces
Monitoring Examples
An administrator would poll a dialer interface's connection-state object to see whether it is currently idle, dialing, or connected, and check idle-timeout and call-count objects to understand how frequently the backup link is being triggered. The module description text supplied for this entry actually documents Multilink PPP (MP) bundle statistics such as lost fragments, reordered packets, and bundle name rather than dialer-specific object names, so no dialer-table object names can be confirmed from the given data. A dialer interface repeatedly dialing and disconnecting in a short period would indicate an unstable primary link triggering excessive backup activation.
What Can Be Monitored
- dialer interface connection state
- idle-timeout and disconnect behavior
- dial attempt/call counts
- dialer profile configuration
