WS-SW-PORTVLAN-MIB

Description: Manages Symbol Technologies wireless switch port VLAN membership, trunk mode settings, and tagging configuration.

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.

WS-SW-PORTVLAN-MIB is a Symbol Technologies (Motorola) proprietary MIB for wireless switches that manages port-level VLAN membership, trunk mode, and 802.1Q tagging configuration. It exposes primarily configuration data describing how each physical or logical port is assigned to VLANs and whether it operates in access or trunk mode. Its monitoring role is to confirm correct Layer 2 segmentation on the switch — detecting a port that has drifted from its intended VLAN or trunk configuration, which can cause connectivity or security boundary issues, though it does not report hardware health metrics like temperature or power. It relies on the standard IEEE 802.1Q VLAN model and the vendor's underlying wireless switch port/interface MIB for port indexing. It is deployed in enterprise wireless network environments where Symbol/Motorola switches segment wired and wireless traffic into VLANs. Network engineers evaluating or troubleshooting this functionality can download the WS-SW-PORTVLAN-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

No sample object names were given; the module description indicates a port/VLAN configuration table keyed by port index, holding VLAN ID membership and trunk/tag mode per port. An admin would poll this table to verify that an uplink port remains in trunk mode carrying the expected VLAN set, and a mismatch (e.g., a port unexpectedly reverting to access mode) would explain unreachable VLANs downstream.
