What Is RC-IP-ROUTING-MIB?

RC-IP-ROUTING-MIB is a Bay Networks/Nortel enterprise MIB for the Accelar (Rapid-City) family of Layer 3 switches, covering IP unicast routing configuration such as static routes and route redistribution between routing protocols. The data it exposes is almost entirely configuration state -- per-protocol redistribution enable flags, metric types, and explicit metric values for RIP-to-OSPF, OSPF-to-RIP, direct-to-OSPF, and static-to-OSPF redistribution -- rather than raw traffic counters. Its value for monitoring is chiefly a software/protocol-status one: polling objects like rcIpRoutingRedistributeRipToOspfEnable tells an operator whether a redistribution feature is currently active, letting them confirm the switch's routing software is behaving as provisioned rather than tracking hardware health directly. It builds on and complements the standard IETF OSPF and RIP MIBs (and the base ipRouteTable), since it only governs how routes are exchanged between those protocols rather than redefining routing itself. It is typically deployed on Bay Networks/Nortel Accelar switches acting as core or distribution-layer Layer 3 devices in enterprise campus networks. Engineers can download the RC-IP-ROUTING-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in RC-IP-ROUTING-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

  • RIP-to-OSPF redistribution status
  • OSPF-to-RIP redistribution status
  • direct route redistribution method
  • static route redistribution status
  • redistribution metric type and value

Supported Devices

  • Bay Networks/Nortel Accelar Layer 3 switches
  • Rapid-City series switches

Monitoring Examples

An administrator troubleshooting a route leak between OSPF and RIP domains would poll rcIpRoutingRedistributeOspfToRipEnable and rcIpRoutingRedistributeOspfToRipExplicitMetric to confirm whether redistribution is turned on and what metric is being injected. Similarly, checking rcIpRoutingRedistributeDirectToOspfMethod and rcIpRoutingRedistributeDirectToOspfExternalMetricType reveals how directly connected subnets are being advertised into OSPF as external routes. An unexpected enable flag or metric mismatch here would explain routing loops or suboptimal path selection observed elsewhere in the network.
