What Is Nortel-Magellan-Passport-CircuitEmulationServiceMIB?

Nortel-Magellan-Passport-CircuitEmulationServiceMIB manages AAL1 Circuit Emulation Service (CES) on the Magellan Passport switch family, which carries legacy TDM (T1/E1) traffic transparently over an ATM backbone. It provides RowStatus provisioning tables for CES components (aal1CesRowStatusTable), customer identifier association tables, and NAP (network access point) provisioning objects. Because CES is timing-sensitive, this MIB is important for monitoring the operational status of the emulation circuit itself, since a correctly provisioned and active CES component stands in for confirming TDM-over-ATM synchronization and framer hardware health on the interface card. It builds on the shared Magellan Passport RowStatus/component architecture and implements ATM Forum AAL1 CES specifications for TDM interworking. It is deployed on Magellan Passport nodes that interconnect legacy TDM circuits across an ATM core network. Engineers can download the Nortel-Magellan-Passport-CircuitEmulationServiceMIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in Nortel-Magellan-Passport-CircuitEmulationServiceMIB. 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

  • Nortel Magellan Passport ATM switch
  • TDM-to-ATM circuit emulation interface

Monitoring Examples

An operator checks aal1CesRowStatusTable/aal1CesRowStatusEntry (keyed by aal1CesIndex) to verify a circuit emulation component is active, then queries aal1CesCidDataTable/aal1CesCidDataEntry with aal1CesCustomerIdentifier to confirm which customer's TDM circuit the emulation service maps to. aal1CesProvTable/aal1CesProvEntry provisioning objects are compared against expected values if a customer reports jitter or dropped TDM frames, since a misconfigured or non-active CES entry commonly explains such symptoms.

What Can Be Monitored

  • CES component row status
  • customer identifier per CES circuit
  • CES provisioning parameters
  • NAP association
  • storage type of CES entries
