Description: Monitors Xedia Corp. RADIUS authentication and accounting server interactions, response times, and failures.

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 XEDIA-RADIUS-MIB?

XEDIA-RADIUS-MIB is a Xedia Corporation vendor extension covering management of RADIUS client functionality on Xedia devices, supplementing the proposed IETF RADIUS drafts of the time. It exposes both administrative configuration objects (admin auth/accounting status, NAS ID/IP, background timer, max outstanding requests) and parallel operational objects reporting the actual runtime auth/accounting status and general errors. Its monitoring focus is squarely on RADIUS service software status: comparing administrative settings against operational status reveals whether authentication or accounting is actually running, and the general-error counter flags requests that are failing. The module explicitly states it adds to what is defined in the proposed RADIUS drafts rather than being a standalone protocol implementation. It is deployed on Xedia WAN access routers that authenticate dial-in or PPP sessions against a centralized RADIUS server. Engineers can download the XEDIA-RADIUS-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in XEDIA-RADIUS-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

Xedia WAN access router

Monitoring Examples

An operator would compare xradiuscAdminAuthStatus/xradiuscAdminActgStatus against xradiuscOperAuthStatus/xradiuscOperActgStatus to detect a service that is administratively enabled but not actually operating, and monitor xradiuscOperGenErrors alongside xradiuscOperNasIP to identify a RADIUS server that has become unreachable or is rejecting requests.

What Can Be Monitored

RADIUS admin/operational authentication status
RADIUS admin/operational accounting status
NAS ID/IP configuration
outstanding request limit

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using xradiuscOperGenErrors OID:

Select a Xedia WAN access router (RADIUS admin-vs-operational auth/accounting status) as the target host to create a monitor — the SNMP service should be up and running on it. Click New Monitor, then check SNMP Custom on the Favorites tab, click Next, and confirm the host. On the next page, click Select... to open the built-in SNMP MIB Browser and type xradiuscOperGenErrors into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, then select it and click OK. The number of general errors encounted by the Radius Client Task. On the monitor's Main parameters page you can set the target's SNMP port (default 161), credentials, polling interval, and other settings — see the SNMP Monitor help for details. On the State conditions and Alerting tabs, configure when the monitor should change state and trigger an alert; since this is a Counter32-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the counter increases between polls, since a rising count of errors, failures, or discards often points to a real underlying problem. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.

Setting this value to 0, forces the encoding of Vendor Specific attributes within the Vendor's number space, using the standard 'Vendor-Specific' attribute. Setting this to a non-zero value uses standard attribute encoding, with the Vendor Specific Base for the attributes beginning with this offset.
INT xradiuscAdminActgStatus	1.3.6.1.4.1.838.3.16.1.1.1.1.2	INTEGER	read-write	The administrative status of Radius Accounting in the router. Changing this parameter may require a node boot to take affect.
