RADLAN-TRACEROUTE-MIB

Provides traceroute diagnostic capability for path discovery and hop latency measurement.

RADLAN-TRACEROUTE-MIB is a RADLAN Computer Communications-proprietary private MIB (RADLAN's embedded switch software stack is licensed by many OEM vendors) that provides traceroute diagnostic capability directly on the managed device. It is intended to let an SNMP manager trigger a traceroute operation from the device and retrieve hop-by-hop path and latency results without needing CLI or shell access. Its monitoring value is diagnostic rather than continuous status tracking: it helps an administrator confirm network path reachability and measure per-hop latency to troubleshoot connectivity or routing problems from the perspective of the device itself. As a minimal private diagnostic MIB, it has no significant dependency on other standard MIBs beyond general SNMP conventions, though it parallels similar traceroute MIB concepts (e.g., the IETF DISMAN-TRACEROUTE-MIB). It is deployed on RADLAN-based switches (used across multiple OEM vendor products) where RADLAN-TRACEROUTE-MIB SNMP monitoring provides remote path diagnostics for troubleshooting connectivity issues.

Only a version identifier object (rlTraceRouteMibVersion) was available in the extracted source for this module, so the specific trigger/result table object names cannot be confirmed from the given data; however, consistent with its stated purpose, an administrator would typically set trigger parameters (destination address, hop limit) and then poll a results table for per-hop addresses and round-trip times. A sharply increasing latency or an unresponsive hop partway along the path would indicate where a routing or congestion problem is occurring.
