Description: Provides SNMP management objects for TRAX network tracking and monitoring systems.

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 TRAX-MIB?

TRAX-MIB defines SNMP objects for TRAX network tracking and monitoring systems, appliances associated with dial/network-access equipment (evident from the "usr" and "nas" object groupings) used by carriers and network operators to track remote-access sessions and units. It exposes hardware inventory data (serial number, hardware revision), software revision, CPU type, installed RAM and Flash memory, and a self-test result, alongside a management-connection status object and a command table for issuing device operations. The presence of traxIdSelfTestResult, traxIdHardwareSerNum, traxIdSoftwareRev, traxIdRamInstalled, and traxIdFlashInstalled make this MIB directly useful for monitoring hardware health and firmware/software version compliance, letting an operator confirm a unit passed self-test, has the expected memory installed, and is running the correct software revision. There is no explicit dependency on other standard MIBs evident from the available objects, suggesting this is a largely self-contained proprietary identification/command MIB. It would typically be deployed in remote-access server or network-access-server (NAS) racks where operators need to remotely audit hardware inventory and confirm operational readiness of many similar units. Engineers can download the TRAX-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in TRAX-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

  • TRAX network tracking/monitoring appliance
  • network access server (NAS) equipment

Monitoring Examples

An admin would poll traxIdTable (indexed by traxIdIndex) to read traxIdHardwareSerNum, traxIdHardwareRev, and traxIdSoftwareRev together, verifying that a fleet of units all report the expected software revision after a firmware rollout. Reading traxIdSelfTestResult reveals whether a unit failed its self-test, which combined with traxIdMgmtConnect status can flag a unit that is unreachable or degraded. traxIdCpuType, traxIdRamInstalled, and traxIdFlashInstalled provide a hardware inventory snapshot useful for capacity/compatibility audits before a software upgrade. The traxCmdTable suggests the MIB also supports issuing remote commands to the device via SNMP SET operations.
