Description: Huawei MIB defining SNMP trap notifications for the iMAP v2 northbound interface, used for EMS-to-NMS alarm forwarding.

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 HW-IMAPV2NORTHBOUND-TRAP-MIB?

HW-IMAPV2NORTHBOUND-TRAP-MIB is a Huawei-proprietary SNMP module defining the trap/notification objects used by the iMAP v2 northbound interface, a mechanism for forwarding alarms from an Element Management System (EMS) up to a higher-level Network Management System (NMS). Rather than exposing polled configuration or performance tables, it is entirely dedicated to fault/alarm notification definitions carried northbound as SNMP traps. Operators use it exclusively for fault monitoring - receiving forwarded alarm traps that indicate a hardware or software problem detected at the EMS layer (such as equipment faults, threshold crossings, or state changes) surfaces through this MIB's trap structures for consumption by the NMS. It is inherently dependent on Huawei's iMAP EMS alarm framework and the underlying device MIBs whose native alarms it repackages for northbound delivery. It is typically deployed at the boundary between a Huawei EMS and a carrier's higher-tier NMS, where alarm interoperability across management layers is required, with the HW-IMAPV2NORTHBOUND-TRAP-MIB MIB defining the trap structures that make this interoperability possible.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in HW-IMAPV2NORTHBOUND-TRAP-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 EMS-managed network elements (via iMAP northbound interface)

Monitoring Examples

This module is a trap/notification definition MIB rather than a polled data MIB, so there are no data tables to sample; an NMS operator would instead configure the EMS to send these northbound traps and set up trap receivers to log and alert on each forwarded alarm, using the trap's embedded alarm identifiers to correlate back to the originating device fault. No object names were supplied in the sample set to ground a more specific example.
