What Is Nortel-MsCarrier-MscPassport-X25TraceRcvrMIB?

This Nortel MIB, part of the MscPassport family for the Nortel Passport WAN switching platform, provides X.25 protocol trace receiver configuration and captured-frame retrieval for diagnosing X.25 packet-switched traffic. It exposes objects for creating trace receiver components and associating them with specific DNA (Distant Network Address) targets for capturing X.25 traffic. Its use in monitoring is diagnostic rather than steady-state: administrators check whether trace receiver and DNA-scoped trace components are correctly provisioned and active, to confirm that a diagnostic capture session is actually collecting frames rather than silently failing, which speaks to the health of the switch's diagnostic software subsystem. It relies on the common MscPassport component-object conventions (row status, storage type, indexing) shared across the wider Passport MIB family. It is used on carrier Nortel Passport X.25 switches during troubleshooting of packet-switched data network connectivity issues. Network engineers evaluating or troubleshooting this functionality can download the Nortel-MsCarrier-MscPassport-X25TraceRcvrMIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in Nortel-MsCarrier-MscPassport-X25TraceRcvrMIB. 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 Passport X.25 WAN switch

Monitoring Examples

An engineer provisions an X.25 trace receiver in mscTraceRcvrX25RowStatusTable, keyed by mscTraceRcvrX25Index, then scopes the capture to a specific destination using mscTraceRcvrX25DnaRowStatusTable entries identified by mscTraceRcvrX25DnaComponentName. Checking mscTraceRcvrX25RowStatus and the corresponding DNA row status confirms both the receiver and its target scope are active before relying on the capture for troubleshooting. If expected frames never appear, an inactive or notInService DNA row status is the first thing to check.

What Can Be Monitored

  • trace receiver row status
  • DNA-scoped trace status
  • trace receiver provisioning
  • component storage type
