Description: Manages Raisecom switch traffic filter rules, classification criteria, and packet filter policy.

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 SWITCH-FILTER-MIB?

SWITCH-FILTER-MIB is a Raisecom proprietary MIB for managing Layer 2/3 traffic filter rules on Raisecom switches, letting an administrator define classification criteria and packet filter policies. It exposes configuration objects for filter rule definitions, match criteria (such as source/destination address, VLAN, or protocol type), and the resulting permit or deny action applied to matching traffic. Monitoring it is useful for confirming the software-enforced filtering policy is active as configured, catching a misapplied or disabled rule that could either block legitimate traffic or fail to block unwanted traffic. The module description provided is minimal and does not indicate an explicit dependency on other standard MIBs. It is typically deployed on Raisecom-manufactured Ethernet switches used in carrier or enterprise access networks needing traffic control and security policies, and network administrators can download the SWITCH-FILTER-MIB file to load it into their MIB browser for filter-rule monitoring.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in SWITCH-FILTER-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

Raisecom managed Ethernet switch

Monitoring Examples

No concrete object or table names were available in the sampled source for this MIB. Typically a filter-management module like this would be polled to confirm each configured rule's enable state and its match/action fields, so an admin can verify a security-ACL-style rule is correctly blocking or permitting the intended traffic. An unexpectedly disabled or misconfigured rule would show up as traffic that should have been filtered still reaching its destination.

What Can Be Monitored

filter rule enable/disable state
traffic classification match criteria
filter rule permit/deny action
filter policy application status

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using rcAclFilterCounterPkt64 OID:

Select a Raisecom managed Ethernet switch (Layer 2/3 traffic filter rule config) 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 rcAclFilterCounterPkt64 into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, selecting the specific row/instance you want to monitor since this is a table column, then select it and click OK. The pkt64 of the filter statistics. 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 Counter64-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.
