Description: Monitors World Wide Packets system hardware status, software version, uptime, and operational health.

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-SYSTEM-MIB?

WWP-SYSTEM-MIB is a World Wide Packets (a metro-Ethernet equipment vendor later acquired by Ciena) enterprise MIB that supplements the standard MIB-II system group with additional device-specific system information for their platforms. Its data covers overall system identity and operational health, extending beyond what the standard system group provides. As a monitoring tool it is explicitly aimed at hardware and software status checks: tracking system uptime, hardware operational health, and software version, giving administrators a consolidated view of whether the device is running the expected firmware and remains healthy. It is designed as a companion/supplement to the standard SNMPv2-MIB system group rather than replacing it, explicitly building on that IETF standard. It is typically deployed on World Wide Packets metro-Ethernet access and aggregation switches in carrier and enterprise Ethernet service networks. Engineers can download the WWP-SYSTEM-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in WWP-SYSTEM-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

World Wide Packets metro-Ethernet switches

Monitoring Examples

No sample objects were provided for this module; consistent with its description, a typical check would involve polling system uptime and software version alongside overall operational health status, where an unexpected uptime reset would indicate an unplanned reboot and a software version mismatch would flag a device running out-of-date firmware.

What Can Be Monitored

system uptime
software version

OIDs

OID symbolic	OID numeric	Type	Access	Description
wwpSystemMIB	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.2			The MIB module for the WWP System specific information. This MIB provide additional information to whatever is provided by the standard system group.
wwpSystemMIBObjects	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.2.1
wwpSystemClock	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.2.1.1
DAT wwpSysClockDateTime	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.2.1.1.1	DateAndTime	read-write	The current system date and time of box. There are no privisions for local time or daylight savings. All times use the 24 hr clock and are UTC. Because device time is UTC, only first 7 bytes of DateAndTime data are returned, per rfc1903.
I32 wwpSysClockTimeOffset	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.2.1.1.2	Integer32	read-write	Value used in conjunction with the universal coordinated time (UTC) during the creation of caller ID messages. The value of this object can also be modified by the DHCP using the Time Offset Option.
wwpSystemBootp	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.2.1.2
U32 wwpSystemBootpMsgFreq	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.2.1.2.1	Unsigned32	read-write	Defines how frequently (in seconds) that bootp messages are sent to the host.
wwpSystemAttr	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.2.1.3
MAC wwpSystemStartMacAddr	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.2.1.3.1	MacAddress	read-only	Base MAC address for the device, from which all other mac addresses are derived.
IP wwpSystemDefaultGateway	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.2.1.3.2	IpAddress	read-write	Default gateway IP address.
IP wwpSystemTftpServer	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.2.1.3.3	IpAddress	read-write	Has the TFTP Server host name assigned by the bootp server, and later used for subsequent bootp requests.
STR wwpSystemBootFile	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.2.1.3.4	DisplayString	read-write	Name of the dhcp cmd file for the system.
STR wwpSystemInterfaceHostName	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.2.1.3.5	DisplayString	read-write	Host name for vmi or smi interface.
wwpSystemCfg	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.2.1.4
INT wwpSystemCfgControl	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.2.1.4.1	INTEGER	read-write	Controls configuration options on the device. The current options are: save: to make the configuration changes made using SNMP persistent across a reboot. updatePasswords: to update the current password file with the new password file. The new passwords will become active immediately. updateSnmpCfg: to update the current snmp configuration data. The new configuration will become active immediately. mfgDefaultCfg: Set system configuration to factory defaults. Note: this will wipe out all of the current configuration including Password and VLAN information. If the system doesn't support any of these control configuration option, it should return error while trying to set this object to the specific option. A read on this object should return none(0).
STR wwpSystemCfgFilepath	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.2.1.4.2	DisplayString	read-only	Returns the path for configuration related files.
wwpSystemDebug	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.2.1.5
T/F wwpSystemConsolePortEnable	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.2.1.5.1	TruthValue	read-write	Setting this object to 'true' will enable the console port.
wwpSystemMIBNotificationPrefix	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.2.2
wwpSystemMIBNotifications	1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.2.2.0
