Description: Manages Dragonwave MWR Ethernet interface configuration and traffic statistics.

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 MWR-ETHERNET-MIB?

MWR-ETHERNET-MIB is a DragonWave Inc. proprietary MIB reporting Ethernet and system-level status on DragonWave microwave radio (MWR) link equipment. Its objects cover system type and packet-switch mode (plus their operational status), current negotiated speed, overall operational status, fault severity, chassis temperature, platform type, and a system-reset action. As a hardware/performance-status MIB it lets an administrator confirm a microwave link's current operating speed and watch chassis temperature and fault severity for early signs of a hardware problem. It is deployed on DragonWave microwave radio link equipment. Engineers can download the MWR-ETHERNET-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in MWR-ETHERNET-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

  • DragonWave Inc. microwave radio link equipment

Monitoring Examples

An administrator checks mwrSystemFaultSeverity alongside mwrSystemTemperature on a DragonWave radio unit reporting a throughput drop, to confirm whether an active fault or thermal condition is the underlying cause.

What Can Be Monitored

  • negotiated link speed
  • chassis temperature and fault severity

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using mwrPortStatsInOctet OID:

Select a DragonWave microwave radio (MWR) link equipment (Ethernet/system status) 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 mwrPortStatsInOctet 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 a 64-bit counter representing the incoming octets. 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 a Counter64-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the counter increases sharply between polls relative to its normal baseline, since an unexpected spike often reflects a real change in traffic or activity. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
