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-RADIO-MC-MIB?

MWR-RADIO-MC-MIB is a DragonWave-specific MIB for the multi-carrier (MC) configuration and performance management of its MWR family of microwave point-to-point radio links, used in wireless backhaul networks. It exposes per-radio-carrier configuration tables covering transmit/receive frequency, transmit power, channel bandwidth, standard/modulation mode, and operational profile settings. It is used to monitor the hardware status of each radio carrier — whether transmit is enabled (TxState), how much transmit downtime has occurred, current transmit power level, and configured frequency/bandwidth — the key health indicators for a microwave link's radio hardware. As a radio-link MIB it commonly complements standard interface (IF-MIB) statistics with radio-specific physical-layer detail rather than replacing them. It is typically deployed by wireless carriers and enterprises operating DragonWave microwave backhaul links between towers or buildings, polled by NMS tools tracking link availability and RF configuration drift. Engineers can download the MWR-RADIO-MC-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in MWR-RADIO-MC-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.

Monitoring Examples

An admin would poll mwrEmcRadioConfigurationsTable/mwrEmcRadioConfigurationsEntry keyed by mwrEmcRadioConfigIndex to read mwrEmcRadioTxState and mwrEmcRadioTxPower for each carrier; a carrier reporting Tx disabled or an unexpectedly low mwrEmcRadioTxPower flags reduced link capacity or a hardware fault. Watching mwrEmcRadioTxDownTime reveals cumulative transmitter outages, while mwrEmcRadioRxFrequency/mwrEmcRadioTxFrequency and the mwrEmcRadioProfileTable's mwrEmcRadioStandardMode/mwrEmcRadioChannelBw let an admin confirm the carrier is still operating on its assigned frequency and bandwidth plan.

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using mwrEmcRadioTxFrames OID:

Select a DragonWave MWR microwave radio (multi-carrier configuration) 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 mwrEmcRadioTxFrames 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. The current count of radio frames transmitted. 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.
