Description: Huawei VE (Virtual Ethernet) MIB for managing virtual Ethernet interfaces used in virtualization and NFV deployments.

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-VE-MIB?

HUAWEI-VE-MIB is a Huawei-proprietary SNMP module within Huawei's datacomm enterprise tree (hwDatacomm) that manages Virtual Ethernet (VE) interfaces, a feature used in network virtualization and NFV deployments on Huawei routers and switches. It exposes general extent information describing virtual Ethernet interface instances, their configuration, and their binding to underlying physical or logical resources. Operators use it to monitor the software-level operational status of virtual interfaces - whether a VE interface is up, correctly bound, and passing traffic - which is important for confirming a virtualized network function or virtual interface abstraction is healthy after configuration changes or VNF restarts. It is layered on top of Huawei's IF-MIB-compatible interface indexing conventions since VE interfaces are represented as standard ifTable entries with vendor extensions. Typical deployment is on Huawei VRP-based routers and switches supporting NFV/SDN virtual interface features in carrier or enterprise networks. Network engineers evaluating or troubleshooting this functionality can download the HUAWEI-VE-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in HUAWEI-VE-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 VRP-based router
  • Huawei switch supporting NFV/virtual interfaces

Monitoring Examples

No concrete object or table names were provided for this module, so a specific polling scenario cannot be grounded in real identifiers; based on the module description (general extent information under hwVirtualEthernet), an operator would be expected to query per-interface status and binding objects to confirm a virtual Ethernet interface remains bound and operationally up after a virtualization event.

What Can Be Monitored

  • virtual Ethernet interface operational status
  • interface binding state
  • virtual interface configuration
  • interface up/down transitions
