What Is IANA-OLSRv2-LINK-METRIC-TYPE-MIB?
The IANA-OLSRv2-LINK-METRIC-TYPE-MIB is an IANA-maintained, vendor-neutral standards MIB that defines a single textual convention — IANAolsrv2LinkMetricType — enumerating the registered link-metric type codes used by the OLSRv2 (Optimized Link State Routing Protocol version 2) MANET routing protocol. It contains no monitorable objects, tables, or traps of its own; it exists purely to provide a shared, IANA-registered enumeration that the operational OLSRv2-MIB references when reporting the metric type used for a given routing link. Because of this, it plays no direct role in monitoring device hardware or software status — its value is entirely definitional, ensuring different implementations agree on numeric metric-type codes. It is explicitly and tightly dependent on the companion OLSRv2-MIB, which is where the actual olsrv2LinkMetricType object and other runtime routing data live. It would be loaded alongside the OLSRv2-MIB on any mobile ad hoc network (MANET) router or software router implementing OLSRv2 routing. Engineers implementing or auditing this functionality typically reference the IANA-OLSRv2-LINK-METRIC-TYPE-MIB RFC/standard documentation for the authoritative specification.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in IANA-OLSRv2-LINK-METRIC-TYPE-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
- vendor-neutral, standards-based MIB, not tied to a specific manufacturer; applies to MANET (mobile ad hoc network) routers implementing OLSRv2
Monitoring Examples
This module defines only a textual convention (an enumerated type) with no runtime data objects or tables, so there is no monitoring scenario to describe from this MIB alone. Its enumerated values are referenced by the olsrv2LinkMetricType object in the separate OLSRv2-MIB, which is what an administrator would actually poll to see which link-metric type (e.g., hop count or a link-quality-based metric) is in use on a given MANET link.
