What Is RC-ERROR-MIB?

RC-ERROR-MIB is a Bay Networks/Nortel Rapid-City Group proprietary MIB for the Accelar switch-router product family, reporting Rapid-City software error events. Its objects cover error level, error code, human-readable error text, a return code, and a send-trap flag. As a notification MIB it lets an administrator receive a coded, leveled error report from the Rapid-City software stack and match it to the accompanying human-readable text for diagnosis. It is deployed on Nortel/Bay Networks Accelar switch-routers running Rapid-City software. Engineers can download the RC-ERROR-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in RC-ERROR-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.

What Can Be Monitored

  • Rapid-City software error events

Supported Devices

  • Nortel/Bay Networks Accelar switch-routers (Rapid-City software)

Monitoring Examples

An administrator reads rcErrorLevel and rcErrorText together to triage the severity and cause of a Rapid-City software error reported by a Nortel Accelar switch-router.

This is an encoded value that identifies the software module that generated the error message as well as a specific error condition within that module. This value is transparent to the user. This value is intended to help Accelar support and development staff to isolate system problems.
