What Is XYLAN-FRAME-RELAY-MIB?

XYLAN-FRAME-RELAY-MIB is a private enterprise MIB from Xylan (whose OmniSwitch product line was later absorbed into Alcatel/Alcatel-Lucent) that manages Frame Relay permanent virtual circuit (PVC) configuration on OmniSwitch devices. It is expected to expose per-DLCI objects covering circuit configuration, administrative and operational status, and traffic-shaping parameters such as committed information rate and burst size, following the xylan-prefixed table/entry naming convention seen across other Xylan MIBs. Its monitoring value lies in confirming whether configured Frame Relay PVCs are administratively enabled and operationally up, and whether traffic-shaping parameters match provisioned service levels — a fault/configuration-status check for WAN connectivity. It likely complements or parallels concepts from the standard Frame Relay DTE MIB (RFC 1315) but implements them as Xylan-specific objects. It would be deployed on Xylan OmniSwitch devices terminating Frame Relay WAN circuits, where network operations monitor PVC/DLCI health. Operators tracking down the XYLAN-FRAME-RELAY-MIB MIB definition usually do so to confirm the exact object names for a specific OmniSwitch firmware version.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in XYLAN-FRAME-RELAY-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.

What Can Be Monitored

  • PVC/DLCI administrative status
  • PVC/DLCI operational status
  • traffic shaping parameters (CIR/burst)

Supported Devices

  • Xylan OmniSwitch device (Frame Relay PVC/DLCI configuration)

Monitoring Examples

No sample objects were included for this specific module, but consistent with the xylan-prefixed naming convention seen in sibling MIBs (e.g., xylanIpRipFilterTable), a likely Frame Relay PVC table would carry a DLCI identifier, administrative/operational status, and shaping parameters like committed burst size. An operator would poll such a table to confirm a PVC's operational status is up and that its configured DLCI and shaping values match the carrier's provisioned service, with a down operational status flagging a WAN link fault. This description is inferred from naming convention rather than confirmed sample objects for this exact module.

INT frxPortDefaultBridgingVLAN1.3.6.1.4.1.800.2.8.1.1.1.4INTEGERread-writeThe default VLAN for new PVCs that have not been configured for the Bridging Service. A value of zero(0) indicates that unconfigured VCs will not perform a bridging service and will discard all bridged format frames received or transmitted.

This allows an unconfigured VC to be added to an existing configured bridging service virtual circuit group. If zero, then unconfigured VCs will be added to a newly created (dynamic) Briding Service instance (i.e. a new virtual port is created dynamically).
INT frxPortDefaultRoutingVLAN1.3.6.1.4.1.800.2.8.1.1.1.6INTEGERread-writeThe default VLAN for new PVCs that have not been configured for a routing Service.

INT frxVcControlCompressionAdminStatus1.3.6.1.4.1.800.2.8.2.1.1.4INTEGERread-writeThis object controls whether or not the virtual circuit will attempt (enable) or not attemp (disable) to negotiate for compression. The current state of compression for the virtual circuit is indicated in frxVcControlCompressionOperStatus
INT frxVcControlCompressionOperPhase1.3.6.1.4.1.800.2.8.2.1.1.5INTEGERread-onlyThis object reports the current phase (state) of compression for this virtual circuit if the Compression Admin Status is set to enable. If the compression Admin status is set to disabled, then this object will report as disabled. Otherwise the value reflects whether compression is currently inactive or failed negotiation (disabled) is under negotiation (initialization) or active (operation). Possible causes of disabled are a failed negotiation, virtual circuit inactive, the other side not supporting compression, etc. For a description of the phases (states), see Frame Relay Forum Implementation aggreement on Data Compression (FRF.9)

A dynamic entry is one that is automatically created for an unconfigured virtual circuit based on the the type of service (bridging or routing) and whether a default VLAN is defined for the type of service. Changing the value via a write command from dynamic to static will cause the table entry to be stored into non-volatile memory. Setting a value of dynamic is not allowed.
