Description: IGNITENET-MIB module

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 IGNITENET-MIB?

IGNITENET-MIB is a vendor private MIB for IgniteNet networking equipment, a maker of wireless point-to-point/point-to-multipoint radios and Ethernet switches (including the MetroLinq product line), exposing device identity, hardware/firmware version, and per-interface Ethernet and radio status. It covers device identification (model, hardware/firmware version), Ethernet port inventory and link status (speed, duplex, description), and wireless radio inventory. For monitoring, it is used to track software status via firmware version and hardware revision, and interface health via Ethernet speed/duplex, which reveal negotiation problems or unexpected link speed drops on Ethernet ports; radio table entries would similarly expose wireless link status. No dependency on other MIBs is evident from the available data; it appears to be a self-contained vendor tree. It is typically deployed on IgniteNet outdoor wireless bridges/radios and switches used in fixed-wireless ISP and enterprise point-to-point network links. Engineers can download the IGNITENET-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in IGNITENET-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

  • IgniteNet wireless bridges/radios (e.g., MetroLinq)
  • IgniteNet Ethernet switches

Monitoring Examples

Polling ethInfoTable/ethInfoEntry for a given ethInfoIndex returns ethInfoSpeed and ethInfoDuplex, letting an administrator detect a port that has unexpectedly negotiated down to a lower speed or half-duplex, a common cause of throughput problems. Checking model, hwVersion, and fwVersion confirms which hardware revision and firmware build is running on a deployed radio, useful for verifying fleet-wide upgrade compliance. The mlRadioNumber and mlRadioInfoTable expose the count and per-radio status of MetroLinq wireless radio modules on multi-radio units.

  • hardware version
  • Ethernet port speed and duplex
  • Ethernet port count/inventory
  • wireless radio count and status

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using ethInfoSpeed OID:

Select an IgniteNet wireless bridge/radio (e.g. MetroLinq) or Ethernet 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 ethInfoSpeed 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 ethernet speed in MB/s. 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 an Integer32-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the value drifts significantly from its normal baseline, since an unexpected change often points to a real underlying issue. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
