Description: Provides BATM Advanced Communication system information including hardware version, software revision, and platform identification.

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-SYS-INFO-MIB?

This proprietary BATM Advanced Communication MIB provides basic system-identification information for BATM switching/networking equipment, covering hardware version, software revision, and platform identity. Its data falls into the general "system information/inventory" category: identifying what the device is, what hardware revision it is built on, and what software image it is currently running. It is directly used to monitor the software and hardware status of the device — confirming the running firmware/software version (useful for detecting an unexpected or unpatched version after a reboot) and the hardware platform/version identifier, which is foundational data for fleet-wide inventory and compliance auditing. As a basic system-identity MIB it likely parallels (without formally depending on) the standard SNMPv2-MIB sysDescr/sysObjectID objects, providing a BATM-specific supplement to that generic information. It is deployed across the full range of BATM/Telco Systems network equipment, wherever an operator needs to programmatically confirm hardware model and firmware version for asset tracking or upgrade validation. Engineers can download the PRVT-SYS-INFO-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in PRVT-SYS-INFO-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/Telco Systems networking device

Monitoring Examples

No sample object names were provided in the extract for this module, so a concrete table-level example cannot be grounded in real identifiers here; broadly, an admin would poll the module's hardware-version and software-revision objects after a firmware upgrade to confirm the device is running the intended image and reports the expected platform identity.

What Can Be Monitored

hardware version
software/firmware revision
platform identification

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using numBytesFree OID:

Select a BATM/Telco Systems networking device (system identity/hardware-software version) 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 numBytesFree into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, then select it and click OK. The number of bytes free in the system memory. 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 value drops well below its normal baseline, since a shrinking free-memory margin often precedes performance degradation or an out-of-memory condition. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
