Description: Manages Sonus Networks softswitch software package installation, upgrade scheduling, and version management.

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 SONUS-SOFTWARE-UPGRADE-SERVICES-MIB?

SONUS-SOFTWARE-UPGRADE-SERVICES-MIB is Sonus Networks' (a softswitch/session-border-controller vendor later part of Ribbon Communications) MIB for managing software package installation and upgrade scheduling on its telecom switching platforms. It exposes configuration objects for initiating, halting, and committing a software upgrade on a given shelf, along with status objects reporting the state of that upgrade process. Its monitoring value is squarely on software status: sonusSwUpgradeShelfStatTable lets an operator track whether an upgrade on a given shelf (sonusSwUpgradeShelfStatShelfIndex) is in progress, completed, or failed, which is critical in carrier-grade voice environments where an incomplete upgrade can mean a service outage. It also defines its own notifications (sonusSoftwareUpgradeServicesMIBNotifications) to alert operators of upgrade state changes rather than relying purely on polling, and it appears to be a self-contained Sonus enterprise module with no shown dependency on external IETF MIBs. It is typically deployed in carrier/service-provider softswitch and media-gateway environments where software upgrades must be tightly controlled across multiple shelves/chassis. Network engineers evaluating or troubleshooting this functionality can download the SONUS-SOFTWARE-UPGRADE-SERVICES-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in SONUS-SOFTWARE-UPGRADE-SERVICES-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

Sonus Networks softswitch/session border controller

Monitoring Examples

An operator would SET sonusSwUpgradeShelfAdmnUpgradeNow (or sonusSwUpgradeShelfAdmnInit) on sonusSwUpgradeShelfAdmnTable to trigger an upgrade for a shelf identified by sonusSwUpgradeShelfAdmnShelfIndex, then poll sonusSwUpgradeShelfStatTable to confirm the upgrade progressed rather than stalled. sonusSwUpgradeShelfAdmnHalt allows aborting an upgrade mid-process if a problem is detected, and sonusSwUpgradeShelfAdmnCommitDirectory/sonusSwUpgradeShelfAdmnDirectory track which software directory/package is being committed. This gives operators explicit visibility into software rollout state across a live softswitch shelf.

What Can Be Monitored

software upgrade status per shelf
upgrade initiation state
upgrade halt state
software package/directory being installed
