Description: Manages BATM Advanced Communication Ethernet service (E-Line, E-LAN) configuration, SAP binding, and service operational state.

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 PRVT-SERV-MIB?

PRVT-SERV-MIB is a proprietary BATM Advanced Communication MIB for provisioning and managing Carrier Ethernet services (such as E-Line and E-LAN) on their T-Metro switching platform, covering customer records, service definitions, and Service Access Point (SAP) bindings. It includes a customer information table (custInfoTable) with contact and management-change details, plus site and service objects grouped under separate object branches for services, customers, and multi-service sites. Its monitoring value lies in service and configuration status: administrators track custRowStatus and custLastMgmtChange to see when a customer's service configuration was last modified, and service tables let them confirm a given Ethernet service is correctly provisioned and operationally active for that customer. This MIB is designed to interoperate with related BATM MIBs like PRVT-ELMI-MIB (for UNI status signaling) and PRVT-SWITCH-MIB (for underlying port/interface state) to form a complete service-assurance picture. It is deployed on BATM T-Metro carrier Ethernet switches used by service providers to deliver managed Ethernet business services. Service providers onboarding a new T-Metro switch typically load the PRVT-SERV-MIB MIB file into their provisioning system first, so customer and service tables can be polled consistently across the fleet.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in PRVT-SERV-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.

Supported Devices

  • BATM T-Metro carrier Ethernet switching platform (Carrier Ethernet service provisioning)

Monitoring Examples

An operator would query custInfoTable for a given custInfoEntry to confirm custName, custContact, and custRowStatus reflect an active, correctly provisioned customer, and check custLastMgmtChange to see when the record was last touched — useful when diagnosing a service issue reported right after a configuration change. custMultiServiceSiteTable and custMultSvcSiteName let an operator see which physical sites are associated with a multi-site customer service. Cross-referencing prvtTMServObjs entries against the customer's SAP would confirm whether a specific E-Line or E-LAN instance is correctly bound to that customer.

What Can Be Monitored

  • customer service provisioning status
  • customer contact/record details
  • last management change timestamp
  • multi-site service association
  • service/SAP configuration

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using custNumEntries OID:

Select a BATM T-Metro carrier Ethernet switching platform as the target host to create a monitor — the SNMP service should be up and running on it. Click New Monitor, then check SNMP Custom on the Favorites tab, click Next, and confirm the host. On the next page, click Select... to open the built-in SNMP MIB Browser and type custNumEntries into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, then select it and click OK. It reports the current number of customer records configured on this device. On the monitor's Main parameters page you can set the target's SNMP port (default 161), credentials, polling interval, and other settings — see the SNMP Monitor help for details. On the State conditions and Alerting tabs, configure when the monitor should change state and trigger an alert; since this is an Integer32-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the count changes from its expected baseline, since that would indicate a customer record was added or removed unexpectedly. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
