Description: Huawei LAN switch IGMP snooping MIB for managing IGMP snooping group membership tables and multicast port filtering on Huawei 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 HUAWEI-LswIGSP-MIB?

HUAWEI-LswIGSP-MIB is a Huawei-specific MIB for LAN switches, managing IGMP snooping functionality that tracks multicast group membership on switch ports and filters multicast traffic accordingly. It exposes IGMP snooping group membership tables and per-port multicast filtering/forwarding state on Huawei switches. It is used to monitor the software/protocol status of Layer 2 multicast control, letting an admin inspect the group membership table to confirm which ports have active multicast receivers and verify multicast traffic is being correctly filtered rather than flooded, helping diagnose multicast delivery problems or unwanted flooding on a VLAN. It complements the standard IETF IGMP and Bridge MIB conventions, since IGMP snooping is a Layer 2 optimization layered on top of the IETF IGMP protocol. It is typically deployed on Huawei enterprise LAN switches carrying multicast traffic such as IPTV or video conferencing within an enterprise campus network. Engineers can download the HUAWEI-LswIGSP-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in HUAWEI-LswIGSP-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 LAN switches

Monitoring Examples

No specific object or table names were provided for this module, so a precise polling example cannot be constructed with grounded identifiers. Typically, an admin would poll the IGMP snooping group membership table to see which switch ports have active multicast receivers for a given group, and check per-port filtering state to detect unexpected multicast flooding. Traffic flooding to a port that should have been filtered would indicate a misconfigured or non-snooping-aware port.

What Can Be Monitored

  • IGMP snooping group membership
  • per-port multicast filtering state
  • multicast group-to-port mapping

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using hwRecvIGMPGQueryNum OID:

Select a Huawei LAN switch (IGMP snooping) as the target host to create a monitor — the SNMP service should be up and running on it. Click New Monitor, then check SNMP Custom on the Favorites tab, click Next, and confirm the host. On the next page, click Select... to open the built-in SNMP MIB Browser and type hwRecvIGMPGQueryNum into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, then select it and click OK. The statistics of IGMP general query packets received on the device. On the monitor's Main parameters page you can set the target's SNMP port (default 161), credentials, polling interval, and other settings — see the SNMP Monitor help for details. On the State conditions and Alerting tabs, configure when the monitor should change state and trigger an alert; since this is a Counter32-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the counter increases sharply between polls relative to its normal baseline, since an unexpected spike often reflects a real change in traffic or activity. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
