What Is ZYXEL-AS-ATM-MIB?

This MIB belongs to ZyXEL's access-switch (AS) product line and covers ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) layer configuration, a legacy WAN/broadband transport technology historically used for DSL and other access-network backhaul. It exposes configuration objects for ATM virtual circuits, specifically VPI/VCI (Virtual Path Identifier/Virtual Channel Identifier) assignments and associated traffic parameters such as bandwidth or QoS class per circuit. This MIB is used to monitor software/configuration-level status of ATM connectivity: verifying that VPI/VCI pairs are correctly assigned and that traffic parameters match the provisioned service, which is important for diagnosing connectivity or performance issues on ATM-based access links. It depends on the underlying physical DSL/ATM port infrastructure of the ZyXEL access switch to actually carry the configured virtual circuits. It is typically deployed in legacy broadband access networks where ZyXEL access switches provide DSL aggregation over ATM uplinks. Network engineers evaluating or troubleshooting this functionality can download the ZYXEL-AS-ATM-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in ZYXEL-AS-ATM-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

  • VPI/VCI assignment per circuit
  • ATM traffic parameters
  • circuit provisioning status

Supported Devices

  • ZyXEL access switch (ATM/DSL access)

Monitoring Examples

An administrator would poll the ATM VPI/VCI configuration table to confirm each provisioned circuit's virtual path/channel identifiers and traffic parameters match the service order for that subscriber or uplink. A VPI/VCI mismatch between the access switch and the upstream DSLAM or ATM switch would prevent the circuit from passing traffic even though the physical port is up. Monitoring the configured traffic parameters also helps confirm bandwidth allocations remain consistent after a configuration change.
