Description: Manages ZTE access node IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol (PTP) configuration and synchronization status.

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 ZTE-AN-IEEE1588-MIB?

ZTE-AN-IEEE1588-MIB manages IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol (PTP) configuration and synchronization status on ZTE access-node equipment, used to distribute precise timing across packet networks (e.g., for mobile backhaul synchronization). It exposes categories of data including global PTP configuration objects, alarm-threshold settings, and detailed time-status information/configuration objects, alongside a dedicated notifications group for PTP-related traps. Its monitoring value is squarely on software/protocol health: time-status objects and alarm thresholds let an admin detect clock synchronization degradation or loss of PTP lock, which is critical because timing faults cascade into service-affecting issues on synchronization-dependent networks like mobile backhaul. It is a ZTE implementation of the IEEE 1588-2008 PTP standard, so its objects map onto and depend on that standard's clock and message model. It is typically deployed on ZTE access nodes in mobile backhaul or other timing-sensitive transport networks requiring sub-microsecond clock synchronization. Engineers can download the ZTE-AN-IEEE1588-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in ZTE-AN-IEEE1588-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

  • ZTE access node (PTP-capable transport/backhaul device)

Monitoring Examples

An operator would poll zxAnIeee1588TimeStatusInfoObjs to check current clock offset/synchronization state and compare it against zxAnIeee1588AlmThreshObjects thresholds, flagging an alarm if offset exceeds the configured limit. zxAnIeee1588Notifications would be monitored for traps indicating loss of PTP lock or master-clock failover, which would explain downstream timing-related service degradation such as dropped mobile handoffs.

What Can Be Monitored

  • PTP clock synchronization status
  • clock offset/time-status information
  • alarm threshold configuration
  • PTP lock/failover notifications

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using zxAnPtpIfStatsAnnounceMsgs OID:

Select a ZTE access node 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 zxAnPtpIfStatsAnnounceMsgs 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. The number of PTP announce messages. 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 sharply between polls relative to its normal baseline, 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.
