Description: IBM MIB for the LAN Emulation Configuration Server (LECS) managing ATM LANE service configuration and client registration.

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 IBM-LES-LECS-MIB?

IBM-LES-LECS-MIB covers the LAN Emulation Configuration Server (LECS) component in ATM LANE deployments on IBM ATM networking equipment, complementing the related LES/BUS MIB. It exposes a lesLecsConfTable describing each LECS interface's operational and administrative status, ATM device number and line speed, ESI configuration, and default VCC (virtual channel connection) parameters like PCR (peak cell rate) and SCR (sustainable cell rate). Its monitoring focus is on the operational health and configuration correctness of the LECS software service: lesLecsOperStatus and lesLecsAdminStatus let an operator confirm the configuration server is actually up and administratively enabled, since a down LECS prevents LANE clients from ever locating their LES, effectively breaking ATM-emulated LAN bootstrapping fleet-wide. lesLecsAtmDevLineSpeed and the VCC PCR/SCR settings help confirm the interface's ATM link capacity and traffic-shaping parameters are as expected. This MIB depends on the ATM Forum LANE specification and pairs directly with IBM-LES-BUS-MIB, and it is deployed on IBM ATM switches/routers acting as the LECS in legacy ATM LANE networks. Engineers can download the IBM-LES-LECS-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in IBM-LES-LECS-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

  • IBM ATM switch/router with LAN Emulation Configuration Server (LECS) support

Monitoring Examples

An admin would poll lesLecsConfTable/lesLecsConfEntry, keyed by lesLecsAtmDevNum, to check lesLecsOperStatus versus lesLecsAdminStatus, immediately catching a LECS interface that is administratively enabled but operationally down, which would prevent new LANE clients from joining any emulated LAN. lesLecsAtmDevLineSpeed would be checked against expected link capacity to rule out a line-speed mismatch, while configDirectPcr and configDirectScr would be reviewed to confirm default VCC traffic-shaping parameters match the network's ATM bandwidth plan. lesLecsUseBurnedInEsi versus lesLecsConfiguredEsi confirms whether the LECS is using its factory ESI or an administrator-assigned one.

What Can Be Monitored

  • LECS operational/administrative status
  • ATM device line speed
  • ESI configuration
  • default VCC peak/sustainable cell rate settings
