What Is WWP-LEOS-VPLS-MIB?

WWP-LEOS-VPLS-MIB is a World Wide Packets (Ciena) vendor MIB for the LEOS platform covering Virtual Private LAN Service, an MPLS/Ethernet technology that emulates a multipoint LAN across a service-provider core. It exposes configuration data for virtual switch instances, member service (pseudowire) bindings, VLAN tag handling, and learned MAC address table entries. Its monitoring focus is on the health and state of VPLS forwarding: an operator checks whether MPLS pseudowire members are up and correctly bound, whether the MAC table is learning expected customer addresses, and whether VLAN tag (TPID) handling is configured consistently across sites, all indicators of service-level software configuration correctness rather than raw hardware sensors. It has a clear dependency on the underlying MPLS/pseudowire signaling and standard VPLS concepts (RFC 4762) that this vendor MIB implements. It is typically deployed on Ciena/WWP LEOS switches acting as VPLS provider edge nodes, where WWP-LEOS-VPLS-MIB SNMP monitoring helps confirm pseudowire and VLAN tag consistency across carrier Ethernet and MPLS-based service-provider networks.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in WWP-LEOS-VPLS-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
  • VPLS provider edge nodes

Monitoring Examples

An administrator would poll the wwpLeosVplsVirtualSwitchMplsMemberEntry table to confirm the operational state of each MPLS pseudowire member bound to a virtual switch instance, and check related VLAN service TPID objects such as wwpLeosVplsVirtualSwitchEthEvplMemberServiceVlanTpid; a member entry showing a down or mismatched state would reveal a broken pseudowire or a VLAN tag protocol identifier mismatch between provider edge nodes disrupting the VPLS service. Sample objects confirm this MIB models virtual switch instances with MPLS and Ethernet EVPL member entries as its core structures.

What Can Be Monitored

  • VPLS virtual switch instance status
  • MPLS pseudowire member state
  • learned MAC address table entries
  • VLAN service TPID configuration
