Description: Manages Ciena LEOS file transfer operations for firmware upgrades and configuration backup via TFTP/FTP.

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 WWP-LEOS-FILE-TRANSFER-MIB?

WWP-LEOS-FILE-TRANSFER-MIB is a World Wide Packets (Ciena) vendor MIB for the LEOS operating system running on WWP Ethernet switches, covering file transfer operations used for firmware upgrades and configuration backup/restore over TFTP or FTP. It exposes configuration objects (server address, filename, transfer direction) and operational status objects (transfer state, result/error code) rather than hardware sensors. Its primary monitoring value is tracking software maintenance activity: an admin can confirm a firmware image or config file transfer completed successfully, is still in progress, or failed, which is critical to confirming a device is running the intended software version after a maintenance window. It has an implicit dependency on TFTP/FTP as the underlying transport protocol rather than another SNMP MIB. The WWP-LEOS-FILE-TRANSFER-MIB MIB is typically used during scheduled firmware upgrades or backup jobs on Ciena/WWP LEOS switches in service-provider access networks.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in WWP-LEOS-FILE-TRANSFER-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

Ciena/WWP LEOS-based Ethernet switches
metro Ethernet access/aggregation devices

Monitoring Examples

An administrator would set the transfer request objects to push a new firmware image via TFTP to a LEOS switch, then poll the transfer status/result object to confirm success before scheduling a reboot; a stuck or error-code result would reveal a bad TFTP server path or interrupted transfer that needs retrying before the upgrade can proceed. No sample objects were listed in the source excerpt, so exact object names are inferred from the described TFTP download operation rather than taken verbatim from the MIB.

What Can Be Monitored

file transfer state
transfer result/error code
transfer source/destination server
firmware image filename
software version after upgrade

OIDs

OID symbolic	OID numeric	Type	Access	Description
wwpLeosFileTransferMIB	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.60.23			The MIB module for the WWP TFTP Operation to download a file.
wwpLeosFileTransferMIBObjects	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.60.23.1
wwpLeosFileTransfer	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.60.23.1.1
INT wwpLeosFTransferOp	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.60.23.1.1.1	INTEGER	read-write	Used to transfer file(s) between a TFTP server (remote) and the device(local). All transfers are binary. There are three types of file transfers: sendFile sends a file to the host TFTP server. getFile receives a file from the host server. getCmdFile gets the specified file from the host and parses that file for additional operations to be performed. This is the mechanism used to upgrade the device with new software.
IP wwpLeosFTransferServerAddr	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.60.23.1.1.2	IpAddress	read-write	The IP address of the TFTP server from (or to) which to transfer the file.Address must be a unicast address that is reachable from the agent and no firewalls or ACLs preventing TFTP datagrams from being transferred. wwpLeosFTransferServerInetAddr cannot be set at the same time. This OID will be set to 0.0.0.0 when the server has an IPv6 address, which is shown in the wwpLeosFTransferServerInetAddr and the wwpLeosDnsServerInetAddrType is set to ipv6. For a server with an IPv4 address, the ip address will be shown in this OID and the wwpLeosFTransferServerInetAddr with the wwpLeosDnsServerInetAddrType set to ipv4.
OCT wwpLeosFTransferRemoteFilename	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.60.23.1.1.3	OCTET STRING	read-write	The file name (including the path, if applicable) to be retrieved from the TFTP server. If the switch/device is downloading a file, then this should be the name of the file on the remote server. Length of filename string must not exceed 64 alpha-numeric characters, no spaces in filenames.
OCT wwpLeosFTransferLocalFilename	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.60.23.1.1.4	OCTET STRING	read-write	The file name (including the path, if applicable) to be written to. If the switch/device is downloading a file, then this should be the name of the file on the switch/device. Length of filename string must not exceed 64 alpha-numeric characters, no spaces in filenames. By default it will have the same value as of wwpLeosFTransferRemoteFilename.
T/F wwpLeosFTransferActivate	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.60.23.1.1.5	TruthValue	read-write	Activate the file transfer operation with a value of True(1). The object will return to 'false' once the file transfer is completed. Poll wwpLeosFTransferStatus for current status. Default value is False. wwpLeosFTransferRemoteFileName, wwpLeosFTransferServerAddress and wwpLeosFTransferOp must be valid prior to setting this object to True.
T/F wwpLeosFTransferNotifOnCompletion	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.60.23.1.1.6	TruthValue	read-write	Specifies whether or not a wwpLeosFTransferCompletion notification should be issued on completion of the TFTP transfer. If such a notification is desired, it is the responsibility of the management entity to ensure that the SNMP administrative model is configured in such a way as to allow the notification to be delivered.
FIL wwpLeosFTransferStatus	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.60.23.1.1.7	FileTransferState	read-only	Specifies the state of this file transfer request. If no file transfer request is being processed, then the wwpLeosFTransferStatus should be 'idle'.
FIL wwpLeosFTransferFailCause	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.60.23.1.1.8	FileTransferFailCause	read-only	The reason why the file transfer operation failed. If no file transfer request is being processed, then the wwpLeosFTransferFileCause should be 'noStatus'.
INT wwpLeosFTransferNotificationStatus	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.60.23.1.1.9	INTEGER	read-only	The status of the file transfer which is to be reported via the FileTransfer Notification.
OCT wwpLeosFTransferNotificationInfo	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.60.23.1.1.10	OCTET STRING	read-only	The string explaining the error code in detail or the additional info for the file transfer completion.
IPt wwpLeosFTransferServerInetAddrType	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.60.23.1.1.11	InetAddressType	read-write	The Inet address type of the TFTP server from (or to) which to transfer the file. Used in conjunction with wwpLeosFTransferServerInetAddr. When set to : ipv4: wwpLeosFTransferServerInetAddr should be compliant with InetAddressIPv4 from RFC 4001 ipv6: wwpLeosFTransferServerInetAddr should be compliant with InetAddressIPv6 from RFC 4001
IP wwpLeosFTransferServerInetAddr	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.60.23.1.1.12	InetAddress	read-write	The Inet address of the TFTP server from (or to) which to transfer the file. Address must be a unicast address that is reachable from the agent and no firewalls or ACLs preventing TFTP datagrams from being transferred. This OID must be used in conjuction with wwpLeosFTransferServerInetAddrType. The InetAddress set here should be compliant with rfc 4001 InetAddressType. When this OID is set, wwpLeosFTransferServerAddr is set ot 0.0.0.0.
wwpLeosFileTransferMIBNotificationPrefix	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.60.23.2
wwpLeosFiletransferMIBNotifications	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.60.23.2.0
NTF wwpLeosFTransferCompletion	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.60.23.2.0.1			A wwpLeosFTransferCompletion notification is sent at the completion of a file transfer request.
