What Is PT-MIB?
PT-MIB MIB is an Ericsson MIB for the MINI-LINK microwave radio transmission system, covering the "PT" (packet transport/radio-related) managed object class within Ericsson's broader MINI-LINK MOC (Managed Object Class) hierarchy alongside IP interfaces, LAN/WAN ports, radio modem (RMM), SFP optics, WiFi, RJ45, and cross-polarization interference cancellation (XPIC) objects. It exposes identity and operational-state configuration data for these radio-transport-related managed object classes, keyed by entPhysical and ifIndex mappings tied to specific slot/port combinations. Its monitoring value centers on radio link and interface hardware/operational status -- letting an operator confirm a microwave link's specific component (radio, SFP module, RMM, or WiFi/RJ45 port) is in the expected operational state per its assigned slot and port. It is tightly coupled to the standard ENTITY-MIB (entPhysical) and IF-MIB (ifIndex) conventions, explicitly stated as the basis for how its managed objects map to physical/interface indices. It is deployed on Ericsson MINI-LINK microwave radio base stations used in mobile backhaul and point-to-point wireless transport networks.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in PT-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
- Ericsson MINI-LINK microwave radio transmission equipment (PT managed object class hierarchy)
Monitoring Examples
An operator would cross-reference a PT_MOC-class object's identity and operational state against its entPhysical index and ifIndex to confirm a specific microwave radio port's state, using the documented MOC offsets (e.g. RMM_MOC 60000, SFP_MOC 70000) to identify whether an alarm applies to the radio modem, SFP transceiver, or another sub-component in that slot/port. Checking the operational state of an XPIC_MOC-indexed object would reveal whether cross-polarization interference cancellation is active on a given radio link. A mismatch between expected and reported operational state for a WANX_PORT_MOC entry would indicate a backhaul link degradation needing field investigation.
What Can Be Monitored
- radio/interface operational state
- physical slot and port identity
- SFP/radio modem (RMM) status
- XPIC cross-polarization status
- WiFi/RJ45 port status

FAQ
What does PT-MIB let me check on an Ericsson MINI-LINK microwave radio system?
It exposes identity and operational-state data for PT-related managed object classes, including radio modem (RMM), SFP optics, WiFi, and RJ45 objects, so you can confirm a particular component is in its expected operational state per its assigned slot and port.
How does PT-MIB map its objects to physical hardware on the chassis?
It ties its managed objects to the standard entPhysical and ifIndex conventions, with slot and port encoded into the index (for example an SFP in slot 1 port 3 maps to 70103), letting you pinpoint the exact physical component being monitored.
