Description: Monitors ZTE ZXR10 router BGP policy accounting statistics for traffic engineering and billing.

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 ZXR10-BGP-POLICY-ACCOUNTING-MIB?

ZXR10-BGP-POLICY-ACCOUNTING-MIB is part of ZTE's ZXR10 router family (core/edge routers running ZTE's ROS) and tracks traffic volume classified by BGP routing policy, such as by AS-path or community, for traffic-engineering and billing purposes. It exposes per-policy traffic counters keyed to interfaces. It is fundamentally a performance/traffic-statistics MIB rather than hardware-fault oriented, letting operators verify usage-based billing and capacity plans against actual measured traffic per policy class. It builds on the BGP protocol standard (RFC 4271) and typically complements interface identification found in the standard IF-MIB. It is typically deployed on ZXR10 core/edge routers carrying transit or peering BGP traffic that requires per-policy accounting. Engineers can download the ZXR10-BGP-POLICY-ACCOUNTING-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in ZXR10-BGP-POLICY-ACCOUNTING-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.

Monitoring Examples

No specific object names were present in the source, so the following scenario is inferred from module_desc: an operator would poll per-interface, per-policy traffic byte and packet counters to see the volume attributed to a specific BGP policy classification, such as traffic received from a given peer AS. A sudden divergence between the expected and measured volume for a policy class could reveal a billing discrepancy or a misapplied routing policy.

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using zxr10bgpPolicyAccStPackets OID:

Select a ZTE ZXR10 core/edge router (per-BGP-policy traffic-counter 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 zxr10bgpPolicyAccStPackets 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 packets received under the specified index. 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 Counter64-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.
