Description: Manages Quantum Bridge Permanent Virtual Circuit provisioning, connection parameters, and operational status.

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 QB-PVC-MIB?

QB-PVC-MIB is a vendor-specific extension MIB for Quantum Bridge (QB) network bridging equipment, used to provision and manage Permanent Virtual Circuits (PVCs) on those devices. It exposes configuration data such as PVC connection parameters alongside operational status objects reflecting whether a given circuit is correctly established and passing traffic. In monitoring terms it is used chiefly to confirm PVC operational/administrative state and connection health rather than general hardware environmentals like temperature or power. The module explicitly builds on and supplements a base PVC management framework (e.g. standard Frame Relay/ATM PVC MIBs), so it depends on those underlying circuit definitions rather than standing alone. It is typically deployed on Quantum Bridge access or bridging devices in carrier or enterprise WAN environments where operators track PVC provisioning and status via SNMP. Network engineers evaluating or troubleshooting this functionality can download the QB-PVC-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in QB-PVC-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

Quantum Bridge network bridging/access devices

Monitoring Examples

The MIB extends PVC provisioning objects, so a realistic scenario is an operator polling per-circuit connection parameters and status objects to confirm a provisioned PVC is administratively up and passing traffic, flagging any circuit that has dropped to a down or inactive state. No specific object or table names were provided in the source data for this module, so exact identifiers cannot be cited here.

qbEnetPvcTable	1.3.6.1.4.1.4323.2.13.1.1.3		not-accessible	The Quantum Bridge Ethernet configuration table contains connections between Ethernet interfaces (IOT and Ethernet Module) and corresponding VCL/AAL5 that are configured at an ATM interface. An entry in the table may be created, destroyed or modified. This table lists all Ethernet AAL5 PVCs within the System that send/receive packet traffic to/from the ATM cloud.

The creation of a row in this table causes a corresponding entry in the atmVclTable of the ATM-MIB to be automatically created if an atmVclEntry with qbEnetPvcVpi and qbEnetPvcVci values does not exist. This corresponding entry can be removed only if the qbEnetPvcEntry is removed. The qbEnetPvcIndex of this table is an ifIndex of the IOT or Module Ethernet interface from the ifTable.

ROW qbEnetPvcRowStatus	1.3.6.1.4.1.4323.2.13.1.1.3.1.14	RowStatus	read-create	The status column for this IOT ENET interface. This OBJECT can be set to: createAndGo(4) destroy(6) The following values may be read: active(1) This object may only be set to createAndGo(4). Setting this object to active(1) when its value is already active(1) is a no-op. Setting this object to createAndGo(4) causes the agent to attempt to create and commit the row based on the contents of the objects in the row. If all necessary information is present in the row and the values are acceptable to the agent, the agent will change the status to active(1). If any of the necessary objects are not available, the agent will reject the creation request. Setting this object to destroy(6) will remove the corresponding entry in this table, and disable data traffic.
