Description: Manages Quanta QCI white-box switch BGP routing protocol configuration, peer sessions, and route advertisement.

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 QUANTA-BGP-MIB?

QUANTA-BGP-MIB is a Quanta Cloud Technology (QCT) proprietary MIB providing BGP routing-protocol configuration for Quanta's white-box/bare-metal switches running the QCI software stack. It belongs to the data-center switch routing-software area and exposes BGP configuration objects covering peer session setup and route advertisement policy as part of a broader "Flex package" of routing feature MIBs. Its monitoring relevance is primarily protocol/software configuration and session status -- confirming BGP peers are configured and their sessions remain established -- functioning analogously to the standard BGP4-MIB's peer state tracking but for Quanta's own switch software. It likely depends on or parallels the standard BGP4-MIB (RFC 4273) object model for peer and route objects, adapted to the Quanta enterprise tree. It is typically deployed on Quanta/QCT white-box switches used as data-center leaf/spine routers running BGP-based fabric routing, and a QUANTA-BGP-MIB download is available for administrators who need to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in QUANTA-BGP-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.

Monitoring Examples

No sample_objects were captured for this module, so a concrete object-name monitoring scenario cannot be honestly constructed without inventing names. In line with standard BGP MIB conventions this module likely parallels, an administrator would typically poll a BGP peer table for peer state (idle/connect/established) and route-advertisement counts to detect a flapping or down BGP session between data-center leaf and spine switches.

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using agentBGPInOpens OID:

Select a Quanta/QCT white-box data-center switch (BGP routing configuration) 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 agentBGPInOpens into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, then select it and click OK. The total number of BGP OPEN messages received since BGP counters were last cleared. 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 a Counter32-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the counter increases sharply between polls relative to its normal baseline, since an unexpected spike often reflects a real change in traffic or activity. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
