Description: Monitors Nortel Magellan Passport hunt group engine processing statistics and call distribution state.
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 Nortel-Magellan-Passport-HuntGroupEngMIB?
Nortel-Magellan-Passport-HuntGroupEngMIB monitors the hunt group engine on Magellan Passport switches, the software component responsible for distributing incoming calls or connection attempts across a pool of trunks or channels. It exposes RowStatus provisioning tables for hunt group engine components plus an operational statistics table (lpEngHgsOperationalTable) counting configured hunt groups and hunt attempts. This makes the MIB directly useful for monitoring call-processing software health and load, since a growing gap between lpEngHgsHuntAttempts and successful call completions, or an unexpectedly low lpEngHgsHuntGroups count, points to trunk group exhaustion or a software/configuration fault in call distribution. It follows the Magellan Passport RowStatus/component conventions shared across the switch's call-processing MIB family. It is deployed on Magellan Passport voice/data switches that use hunt groups to load-balance calls across trunk pools in carrier networks, where operators can download the Nortel-Magellan-Passport-HuntGroupEngMIB file to load it into their MIB browser.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in Nortel-Magellan-Passport-HuntGroupEngMIB. 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 WAN switch (voice/data call processing)
Monitoring Examples
A capacity planner polls lpEngHgsOperationalTable/lpEngHgsOperationalEntry to read lpEngHgsHuntGroups and lpEngHgsHuntAttempts for a given lpEngHgsIndex, watching for hunt attempts climbing without a matching rise in successful calls, which suggests all trunks in the group are busy or unavailable. lpEngHgsRowStatusTable/lpEngHgsRowStatusEntry confirms the hunt group engine component itself is active before escalating a suspected capacity or hardware trunk issue.
What Can Be Monitored
- number of configured hunt groups
- hunt attempt counts
- hunt group engine row status
- component storage type
