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-VMAC-MIB?
ZTE-AN-VMAC-MIB is a ZTE proprietary SNMP module for its Access Node broadband platforms that manages virtual MAC (VMAC) address configuration used for subscriber service redundancy. It exposes configuration data describing VMAC assignments and the redundancy groups or protection mechanisms tied to them, rather than raw traffic counters. Monitoring this MIB helps track the software-level redundancy status of the device — for example, confirming a VMAC is correctly assigned to the active member of a protection group — which is important for detecting failover issues before they affect subscribers. It likely depends on other ZTE-AN interface or redundancy MIBs to map VMACs to physical ports or protection groups. It is deployed on ZTE access nodes in broadband networks that use virtual MAC addressing for high-availability subscriber service continuity across redundant uplinks or chassis. Engineers can download the ZTE-AN-VMAC-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in ZTE-AN-VMAC-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 (DSLAM/OLT broadband access device)
Monitoring Examples
No object names were captured for this MIB, so a specific object-level example cannot be honestly given; in practice an operator would poll the VMAC assignment table to confirm the virtual MAC is bound to the currently active redundant unit, noticing a failover problem if the VMAC remains assigned to a unit that has gone down.
What Can Be Monitored
- VMAC address assignment
- redundancy group membership
- active/standby unit state
- VMAC configuration status
