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-LaneClientMIB?

This MIB module is part of the Nortel Magellan Passport family and manages LAN Emulation (LANE) client configuration and status on Magellan Passport ATM switches, implementing the client side of the ATM Forum's LAN Emulation standard. It exposes LEC (LAN Emulation Client) instance provisioning, customer identifier data, interface binding tables, and LE-ARP address-resolution mapping information. Administrators use it to monitor whether each LEC instance is correctly provisioned and operationally active via lecRowStatus, and to check LE-ARP entries to confirm the emulated LAN's address mappings are healthy, both indicators of correct software/protocol-state operation on the switch's ATM interface hardware. It relies on the common Passport component-identity/row-status framework, layered on top of ATM Forum LANE client concepts. It is deployed on Nortel Magellan Passport ATM switches that bridge legacy LAN segments over ATM backbones using LAN Emulation. Network engineers evaluating or troubleshooting this functionality can download the Nortel-Magellan-Passport-LaneClientMIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

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

Monitoring Examples

An operator would poll lecRowStatusTable to check lecRowStatus for each configured LEC instance, confirming it is active rather than stuck in a provisioning state, and use lecCidDataTable's lecCustomerIdentifier to associate a LEC with its owning customer circuit. The lecIfEntryTable exposes the interface binding for each LEC instance, while the lecLeArp objects would reveal LE-ARP cache mappings of MAC addresses to ATM addresses; a growing number of failed LE-ARP resolutions would point to LANE connectivity problems.

What Can Be Monitored

  • LEC instance row status
  • LEC customer identifier
  • LEC interface binding
  • LE-ARP address resolution entries
  • storage type of LEC entries
