Description: Provides Zhone Technologies IETF distributed management traceroute test for path discovery and delay.

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 ZHONE-DISMAN-TRACEROUTE-MIB?

ZHONE-DISMAN-TRACEROUTE-MIB is the standard IETF Distributed Management Working Group Traceroute MIB (RFC 4560, filed here under a Zhone Technologies vendor-prefixed copy), providing SNMP-driven access to a traceroute capability at a remote host. Its control table, keyed by index, records target address type/address, bypass-route-table flag, data size, timeout, probes-per-hop, port, max TTL, DS field, source address type/address, source ifIndex, miscellaneous options, max failures, don't-fragment flag, initial TTL, frequency, storage type, admin status, and a description, alongside a max-concurrent-requests limit and next-index counter. As a diagnostics MIB it lets an administrator remotely trigger a traceroute from a managed device toward a target and read back the hop-by-hop results via SNMP. It is deployed on network devices implementing the IETF DISMAN Traceroute MIB (Zhone Technologies build). Engineers implementing or auditing this functionality typically reference the ZHONE-DISMAN-TRACEROUTE-MIB RFC/standard documentation for the authoritative specification.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in ZHONE-DISMAN-TRACEROUTE-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

  • Network devices implementing the IETF DISMAN Traceroute MIB (Zhone build)

Monitoring Examples

An administrator configures zhoneTraceRouteCtlTargetAddress and zhoneTraceRouteCtlMaxTtl to remotely trigger a traceroute from a Zhone device toward a suspected connectivity problem.

What Can Be Monitored

  • remote traceroute test configuration and control

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using zhoneTraceRouteResultsCurHopCount OID:

Select a network device implementing the IETF DISMAN Traceroute MIB (Zhone build) 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 zhoneTraceRouteResultsCurHopCount into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, selecting the specific row/instance you want to monitor since this is a table column, then select it and click OK. Reflects the current TTL value (range from 1 to 255) for a remote traceroute operation. 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 Gauge32-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the counter increases sharply between polls relative to its normal baseline (in hops), since an unexpected spike often reflects a real change in traffic or activity. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
