WWP-LEOS-PING-MIB

Description: Manages Ciena LEOS ICMP ping diagnostic operations, target configuration, and round-trip time results.

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.

WWP-LEOS-PING-MIB is a World Wide Packets (Ciena) vendor MIB for the LEOS platform that provides SNMP-driven ICMP ping diagnostics from the switch itself, letting a management system trigger reachability tests and read back the results. It exposes configuration objects for the ping target address, packet count/size, and timeout, alongside result objects like round-trip time, packet loss, and completion status. This is a direct software/network-status monitoring tool: it lets an operator confirm from the device's own vantage point whether a remote host or another network element is reachable and how healthy that path is, which is useful for troubleshooting connectivity issues without needing shell access. It commonly parallels the structure of the IETF DISMAN-PING-MIB but is implemented as a WWP-specific module rather than reusing it directly. It is typically used during fault isolation on Ciena/WWP LEOS Ethernet switches in service-provider networks to verify end-to-end reachability across a metro or access segment, using the objects defined in the WWP-LEOS-PING-MIB MIB.

An administrator would configure a ping test entry with a target IP address and packet count, trigger it via the operation status object, then poll the results table for round-trip time and packet-loss counters to determine if a remote peer is unreachable or experiencing high latency, indicating a link or routing fault along that path. No sample objects were listed in the source excerpt, so specific table/object names are inferred from the stated ping functionality rather than taken verbatim from the MIB.
