Description: Huawei TAD (Traffic Anomaly Detection) MIB for managing anomaly detection thresholds and DDoS mitigation policies.

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-TAD-MIB?

HUAWEI-TAD-MIB is a Huawei enterprise MIB exposing objects under the hwTADObjects subtree for a custom damping feature configurable at the system or interface level, based on its module description; its acronym (TAD) points to traffic/track anomaly damping functionality. With only the top-level object group visible in this batch, the specific runtime data points are not enumerated here, but the described purpose points to configuration objects governing damping thresholds and behavior applied to interfaces or system-wide events. Where implemented, such damping features are used to smooth or suppress rapid state flapping (e.g. interface up/down flapping), so by extension this MIB would support monitoring the stability of interface or system state and whether damping suppression is currently active, an indirect but relevant piece of software/operational health status. It likely depends on Huawei's core interface/system MIB conventions for referencing the interfaces or system entities to which damping is applied. It would be deployed on Huawei routers/switches that support configurable event damping to reduce control-plane churn from flapping links, and engineers typically start with a HUAWEI-TAD-MIB download to inspect the object definitions in a MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in HUAWEI-TAD-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/switches (VRP platform)

Monitoring Examples

Available sample data is limited to the root hwTADObjects node, so no specific table/scalar objects can be cited with confidence; a fuller MIB dump would be needed to identify concrete damping-threshold or anomaly-count objects to poll. Based on the module description, an admin would generally expect to find per-interface or system-level damping configuration and status objects nested under hwTADObjects, useful for detecting excessive event flapping.

What Can Be Monitored

  • interface/system damping configuration state
  • anomaly/flap damping status

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using hwTADAlarmFlappingCount OID:

Select a Huawei routers/switch 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 hwTADAlarmFlappingCount into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, selecting the specific row/instance you want to monitor since this is a table column, then select it and click OK. It reports the how many times alarm's status changed. 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.
