What Is Nortel-Magellan-Passport-ServerAccessRsaMIB?

Nortel-Magellan-Passport-ServerAccessRsaMIB provides SNMP management objects for RSA-based (SecurID-style) server access security configuration on Nortel Magellan Passport switches, used to control authenticated access to switch management functions. It exposes row status/provisioning tables for the RSA security component, an options table identifying the logical processor associated with the RSA service, and a state table reflecting the current operational state of the authentication service. This allows an operator to monitor whether the RSA authentication service is provisioned, which logical processor it is bound to, and whether it is currently in an operational or degraded state -- a direct software-status check on a security-critical control-plane service. It relies on the Passport RowStatus/StorageType and component-indexing conventions shared across the MIB family. It is used on Nortel Magellan Passport switches where administrative access is protected by RSA-based authentication, typically in carrier operations environments with strict access control requirements. Network engineers evaluating or troubleshooting this functionality can download the Nortel-Magellan-Passport-ServerAccessRsaMIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

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

Monitoring Examples

An operator polls rsaRowStatusTable to confirm the RSA authentication component is active, then checks rsaOptionsTable's rsaLogicalProcessor to verify which processor instance is running the service. Querying rsaStateTable reveals whether the authentication service is currently operational, which is critical since a failed or degraded RSA state can lock administrators out of switch management. rsaComponentName and rsaStorageType identify the component and its configuration persistence.

What Can Be Monitored

  • RSA authentication component status
  • logical processor assignment
  • RSA service operational state
  • component storage type
