Description: IETF L2VPN working group draft MIB defining managed objects for Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS) instances and pseudowire endpoints on provider-edge devices

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 VPLS-DRAFT-00-MIB?

VPLS-DRAFT-00-MIB is an early IETF L2VPN working-group draft MIB defining managed objects for LDP-signaled Virtual Private LAN Service instances and their pseudowire endpoints on provider-edge devices. It covers VPLS service and pseudowire configuration and status data used to manage multipoint Ethernet emulation over an MPLS core. Its monitoring value lies in tracking the operational state of VPLS instances and pseudowire endpoints (up/down, signaling status) rather than physical hardware sensors, though it is consumed alongside device-level health data on the same router. The module explicitly depends on an underlying pseudowire network and the LDP-based VPLS signaling draft it references, so it is normally paired with PW-MIB and LDP MIB objects. It targets service-provider PE routers delivering Ethernet multipoint VPN services to enterprise customers. Engineers can download the VPLS-DRAFT-00-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in VPLS-DRAFT-00-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

  • Provider Edge (PE) router
  • vendor-neutral, standards-based MIB, not tied to a specific manufacturer

Monitoring Examples

No sample object or table names were extracted for this module, so a concrete polling example cannot be grounded in real identifiers; conceptually an operator would poll per-instance pseudowire endpoint status to detect a failed or down VPLS pseudowire between two PE routers. Absent verified object names, further technical specifics would be invented rather than derived from the source.

What Can Be Monitored

  • VPLS instance status
  • pseudowire endpoint state
  • LDP signaling status
  • VPLS service configuration

RFC description

MIB for managing Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS) configurations. Defines management objects for provisioning and monitoring VPLS services that create bridged domains across packet-switched networks using MPLS or LDP signaling.

Start monitoring Provider Edge (PE) router, vendor-neutral, standards-based MIB (LDP-signaled VPLS instance/pseudowire 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.
