What Is TCOP-OPT-MIB?

TCOP-OPT-MIB is a vendor-specific MIB (the cdx6500 object prefix ties it to Cabletron/Chipcom CDX 6500 series chassis switch products) that manages TCOP port option settings, covering protocol and operational parameters for specific port groups on the device. It exposes configuration-oriented data about port protocol groups rather than broad performance counters, letting an operator see and set which protocols are enabled on particular port hardware. Its monitoring value centers on confirming the operational configuration state of specific port modules within the chassis, which is a proxy for whether those ports are correctly provisioned for their intended protocol. As a legacy chassis-switch MIB it likely depends on the vendor's base chassis/interface MIBs for physical port identity and status context. It would typically be deployed on legacy Cabletron/Chipcom CDX 6500 series switching chassis in enterprise or campus network environments, where this TCOP-OPT-MIB reference helped administrators confirm port protocol-group configuration.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in TCOP-OPT-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

  • Codex (Motorola Codex) 6500-series multiplexer/data communications chassis

Monitoring Examples

An administrator managing a CDX 6500 chassis would inspect cdx6500PCTPortProtocolGroup and cdx6500PSTPortProtocolGroup to confirm which protocol group each port card is configured for, verifying that ports intended for a specific protocol have not been left on a default or mismatched setting. Because this MIB is narrowly focused on protocol-group configuration, an administrator would typically cross-reference it with the chassis's broader interface or module MIBs to get full port operational status. A configuration drift here (an unexpected protocol group value on a given port) would explain unexpected traffic handling on that port.

What Can Be Monitored

  • port protocol group configuration (PCT ports)
  • port protocol group configuration (PST ports)
