What Is Nortel-MsCarrier-MscPassport-DpnRoutingMIB?

Nortel-MsCarrier-MscPassport-DpnRoutingMIB provides SNMP objects for DPN (Data Packet Network) routing protocol configuration on Nortel MsCarrier MscPassport switches, covering the internal routing identity and topology assignments used by the legacy DPN packet-switching architecture. It defines row status/provisioning tables for the routing component, including logical network number, routing ID, and module ID assignments, along with a routing-ID (Rid) sub-component. This allows an operator to monitor whether the DPN routing component is provisioned and active and to confirm the switch's routing identity and network-number assignment within the DPN topology, which is primarily configuration-state monitoring but also surfaces whether the routing subsystem is operational. It relies on the Passport RowStatus/StorageType and component-indexing conventions shared across the MIB family, and its concepts are specific to Nortel's proprietary DPN routing architecture rather than a public IETF routing standard. It is used on Nortel MsCarrier MscPassport switches operating within a legacy DPN packet-switched carrier network. Engineers can download the Nortel-MsCarrier-MscPassport-DpnRoutingMIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in Nortel-MsCarrier-MscPassport-DpnRoutingMIB. 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 MsCarrier MscPassport switch (DPN network)

Monitoring Examples

An operator polls mscRtgDpnRowStatusTable to confirm the DPN routing component is active, then checks mscRtgDpnLogicalNetworkNumber, mscRtgDpnRoutingId, and mscRtgDpnModuleId to verify the switch's assigned network number, routing identity, and module identity within the DPN topology. A mismatch between the configured routing ID and the value expected by the network's topology plan would indicate a provisioning error that could cause routing conflicts. mscRtgDpnRid provides the associated routing-ID sub-component detail.

What Can Be Monitored

  • routing component status
  • logical network number
  • routing ID assignment
  • module ID assignment
