Description: Monitors SFP/SFP+ optical transceiver presence, vendor identity, wavelength, and optical power levels on Paradyne equipment.

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 PDN-SFP-MIB?

PDN-SFP-MIB is a Paradyne vendor MIB, aligned with the SFP Multi-Source Agreement (MSA), that lets an NMS read the identity and diagnostic data encoded in an SFP/SFP+ transceiver's EEPROM on Paradyne SFP-compatible ports. Its sfpInfoTable, indexed by ifIndex, exposes connector and encoding type, fibre-channel/transmission-media BITS fields, vendor identity fields (sfpVendorName, sfpVendorOUI, sfpVendorPN, sfpVendorSN, sfpVendorRev, sfpVendorDate), supported bit-rate range (sfpBRNominal100Mbps, sfpBRMin/Max), supported link-length fields for fiber and copper, laser wavelength, and a live sfpStatusCurrent BITS field for real-time module status. Because SFPs are pluggable and hot-swappable, this MIB is normally cross-referenced with the Entity MIB (RFC 2737) to map a given SFP instance to its containing port ifIndex. It's primarily an inventory/identity MIB rather than a traffic-counter MIB, useful for detecting incompatible optics and tracking vendor part numbers fleet-wide, and it's deployed on Paradyne SFP-compatible access/transport equipment where the PDN-SFP-MIB MIB documents exactly these transceiver identity and status objects.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in PDN-SFP-MIB. 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.

Paradyne SFP/SFP+-compatible access and transport equipment

Monitoring Examples

An operator polls sfpVendorPN and sfpVendorSN across sfpInfoTable to inventory which optics are installed fleet-wide, and watches sfpStatusCurrent for a given ifIndex — a bit indicating loss-of-signal or a fault condition would flag a failing or unseated transceiver before it causes a link outage.

What Can Be Monitored

SFP vendor identity (name/OUI/part number/serial/revision/date)
SFP connector and encoding type
supported bit-rate range and link-length fields
laser wavelength
current transceiver status bits
fibre-channel compliance/media BITS fields

OID symbolic	OID numeric	Type	Access	Description
pdnSfp	1.3.6.1.4.1.1795.2.24.14.3			SFP is short for Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) Transceiver. They plug into an SFP Compaitble Port and allow for compact Hardware design SFP modules contain an EEPROM containing information about the part. This MIB defines objects which will allow an NMS to extract the information from the SFP modules in a MIB format. The MIB objects defined in this MIB are based on the Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) Transceiver MultiSource Agreement(MSA) Since SFP MODULES are an extension of the port itself, the ifIndex for a sfp Compatible Port will be used to access information from these modules. The Entity MIB (RFC 2737) Should Contain Entries for Each SFP Module. SFP to Port to PortIfIndex can be acheived via the Entity MIB (RFC2737)
