Description: Manages World Wide Packets LEOS traffic filter rules for packet classification and forwarding policy.
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-FILTER-MIB?
WWP-LEOS-FILTER-MIB is a World Wide Packets (Ciena) vendor MIB for the LEOS platform that defines management objects supporting protocol filtering on WWP Ethernet switches, i.e. rules that classify and control forwarding of specific traffic types. It exposes configuration data such as filter rule definitions, match criteria, and per-rule enable/disable state, along with counters showing how many packets matched each rule. Its monitoring role is mainly around configuration/policy correctness and traffic classification behavior rather than hardware health, though filter match counters can reveal unexpected traffic patterns or a misapplied policy silently dropping legitimate traffic. It is a self-contained vendor extension with no strong dependency on other standard MIBs beyond general SNMP framework conventions. It is typically deployed on Ciena/WWP LEOS switches in carrier Ethernet networks where traffic classification and forwarding policy enforcement need to be audited remotely. Network engineers evaluating or troubleshooting this functionality can download the WWP-LEOS-FILTER-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in WWP-LEOS-FILTER-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 poll the filter rule table (a *FilterTable/*FilterEntry style structure) to confirm which protocol filtering rules are active on a given port and check per-rule match counters, revealing whether a rule intended to block a protocol is actually matching traffic or has zero hits, indicating a misconfigured match criterion. No sample objects were listed in the source excerpt, so specific table/object names are inferred from the stated purpose of protocol filtering management rather than taken verbatim from the MIB.
What Can Be Monitored
- filter rule definitions
- filter match criteria
- per-rule enable/disable state
- filter match packet counters
