Configuring ATM SNMP Trap and OAM Enhancements

The ATM SNMP Trap and OAM Enhancements feature provides the ability to send Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) notifications for ATM permanent virtual circuits (PVCs) when the PVC state changes and when Operation, Administration and Maintenance (OAM) loopback fails for a PVC. This feature also provides information about the virtual path identifier/virtual channel identifier (VPI/VCI) in the ATM PVC traps.

The ATM OAM AIS-RDI Monitoring feature extends the existing ATM virtual circuit OAM functionality to include monitoring of the Alarm Indication Signal-Remote Defect Indication (AIS-RDI).

Prerequisites for ATM SNMP Trap and OAM Enhancements

Before you enable ATM PVC trap support, you must configure Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) support and an IP routing protocol on your router. For more information about configuring SNMP support, refer to the chapter "Configuring SNMP Support" in the Cisco IOS XE Network Management Configuration Guide.

To receive PVC failure notification and to allow access to PVC status tables on your router, you must have the Cisco extended ATM PVC trap MIB called CISCO-IETF-ATM2-PVCTRAP-MIB-EXTN.my compiled in your Network Management System (NMS) application. You can find this MIB at Cisco’s MIB website: http:/​/​www.cisco.com/​go/​mibs.

The legacy ATM PVC trap must be disabled by using the no snmp-server enable traps atm pvc command before extended ATM PVC traps are configured.

Restrictions for ATM SNMP Trap and OAM Enhancements

  • Extended ATM PVC traps cannot be used at the same time as the legacy ATM PVC trap. The legacy ATM PVC trap must be disabled by using the no snmp-server enable traps atm pvc command before extended ATM PVC traps are configured.
  • ATM PVC UP traps are not generated for newly created PVCs. They are generated only for PVCs that go from the DOWN state to the UP state.

Information About ATM SNMP Trap and OAM Enhancements

The ATM SNMP Trap and OAM Enhancements feature introduces the following enhancements to the SNMP notifications for ATM permanent virtual circuits (PVCs) and to OAM functionality:

  • ATM PVC traps will be generated when the operational state of a PVC changes from the DOWN state to the UP state.
  • ATM PVC traps will be generated when OAM loopback fails, and the PVC will remain in the UP state, rather than going down.
  • The ATM PVC traps are now extended to include virtual path identifier/virtual channel identifier (VPI/VCI) information, the number of state transitions a PVC goes through in an interval, and the time stamp of the first and the last PVC state transition.

ATM PVC Up Trap

Before the introduction of the ATM SNMP trap and OAM enhancements, the only SNMP notifications for ATM PVCs were the ATM PVC failure traps that were generated when a PVC failed or left the UP operational state. The ATM SNMP trap and OAM enhancements introduce ATM PVC up traps, which are generated when a PVC changes from the DOWN state to the UP state.

ATM PVC OAM Failure Trap

The ATM SNMP trap and OAM enhancements introduce the ATM PVC OAM failure trap. OAM loopback is a mechanism that detects whether a connection is up or down by sending OAM end-to-end loopback command/response cells. An OAM loopback failure indicates that the PVC has lost connectivity. The ATM PVC OAM failure trap is generated when OAM loopback for a PVC fails and is sent at the end of the notification interval.

When OAM loopback for a PVC fails, the PVC is included in the atmStatusChangePVclRangeTable or atmCurrentStatusChangePVclTable and in the ATM PVC OAM failure trap.

Before this feature was introduced, if OAM loopback failed, the PVC was placed in the DOWN state. When the ATM PVC OAM failure trap is enabled, the PVC remains up even if OAM loopback fails, and thus it ensures continuous flow of data.


Note

ATM PVC traps are generated at the end of the notification interval. It is possible to generate three types of ATM PVC traps (the ATM PVC failure trap, ATM PVC up trap, and ATM PVC OAM failure trap) at the end of the same notification interval. However, only one type of trap is generated for each PVC.

Extended ATM PVC Traps

The ATM SNMP Trap and OAM Enhancements feature introduces extended ATM PVC traps. The extended traps include VPI/VCI information for affected PVCs, the number of up-to-down and down-to-up state transitions that a PVC goes through in an interval, and the time stamp of the first and the last PVC state transition.


Note

Extended ATM PVC traps cannot be used at the same time as the legacy ATM PVC trap. The legacy ATM PVC trap must be disabled by using the no snmp-server enable traps atm pvc command before extended ATM PVC traps are configured.

ATM PVC High Watermark Trap

The ATM SNMP Trap and OAM Enhancements feature introduces a high watermark trap. A trap is generated when the number of configured PVCs in an interface and related subinterfaces exceeds a preconfigured high watermark threshold. When the number of configured PVCs in an interface and related subinterfaces falls below the high watermark threshold, another trap is generated to indicate that the fault is cleared. A minimum duration between the occurrence of two consecutive high watermark thresholds can also be set.

Supported MIB Objects and Tables

The ATM PVC trap is defined in the ATM PVC trap MIB. The ATM SNMP trap and OAM enhancements introduce the following tables and MIB objects:

  • The table atmInterfaceExt2Table displays the status of ATM PVCs and is indexed by ifIndex. This table contains the following objects:
    • atmIntfCurrentlyDownToUpPVcls
    • atmIntfOAMFailedPVcls
    • atmIntfCurrentlyOAMFailingPVcls
  • The table atmCurrentStatusChangePVclTable displays information about ATM PVCs that undergo an operational state change and is indexed by ifIndex, atmVclVpi, and atmVclVci. This table contains the following objects:
    • atmPVclStatusTransition
    • atmPVclStatusChangeStart
    • atmPVclStatusChangeEnd
  • The table atmStatusChangePVclRangeTable displays information about ATM PVC ranges and is indexed by ifIndex, atmVclVpi, and rangeIndex. This table contains the following objects:
    • atmPVclLowerRangeValue
    • atmPVclHigherRangeValue
    • atmPVclRangeStatusChangeStart
    • atmPVclRangeStatusChangeEnd
  • The ATM PVC Up Trap "atmIntfPvcUpTrap" contains the following objects:
    • ifIndex
    • atmIntfCurrentlyDownToUpPVcls
  • The ATM PVC OAM Failure Trap atmIntfPvcOAMFailureTrap contains the following objects:
    • ifIndex
    • atmIntfOAMFailedPVcls
    • atmIntfCurrentlyOAMFailingPVcls

ATM OAM AIS-RDI Monitoring

The ATM OAM Alarm Indication Signal--Reverse Defect Indication (AIS-RDI) Monitoring feature extends the existing ATM VC OAM functionality to include monitoring of the AIS-RDI. Once the feature is enabled, OAM AIS-RDI is monitored on the VCs. If the number of consecutive OAM AIS-RDI cells received is greater than a configurable number, the VC is brought down. The VC is brought up when there are no OAM AIS-RDI cells received within a configurable interval.

Benefits of Configuring ATM SNMP Trap and OAM Enhancements

The ATM SNMP Trap and OAM Enhancements and the ATM OAM AIS-RDI Monitoring features have the following benefits:

  • Enables you to use SNMP to detect the recovery of PVCs that are down.
  • Enables you to use SNMP to detect when OAM loopback fails for a PVC.
  • Keeps the PVC in the UP state when OAM loopback fails to allow continuous flow of data.
  • Provides VPI/VCI information in the ATM PVC traps to let you know the PVC that changed operational state or encountered an OAM loopback failure.
  • Provides statistics on the number of state transitions that a PVC goes through.
  • Provides flexibility to control the status change of a PVC when a faulty condition is detected on a VC and OAM VC-AIS cells are generated.
  • Generates a trap to identify if configured PVCs under an interface and related subinterfaces exceed the configured threshold.

      Step 4 no atm enable-ilmi-trap


      Example:
      Router(config-if)# no atm enable-ilmi-trap
       

      Does not generate an Integrated Local Management Interface (ILMI) atmfVccChange trap when an ATM interface or subinterface is enabled or shut down.

       
      Step 5 exit


      Example:
      Router(config-if)# exit
       

      Exits interface configuration mode and enters global configuration mode.

       
      Step 6 rmon event number log trap community owner owner-name


      Example:
      Router(config)# rmon event 3 log trap public owner Test

          Example Configuring Extended ATM PVC Trap Support

          The following example shows the three extended ATM PVC traps enabled on a router. If PVC 0/1 either leaves the up state or down state or encounters an OAM loopback failure, then the host 172.16.61.90 receives SNMP notifications:

          ! Configure SNMP support and an IP routing protocol on your router:
Router(config)# snmp-server community public ro
Router(config)# snmp-server host 172.16.61.90 public 
Router(config)# ip routing
Router(config)# router igrp 109
Router(config-router)# network 172.16.0.0

          Configuring ATM SNMP Trap and OAM Enhancements

          The ATM SNMP Trap and OAM Enhancements feature provides the ability to send Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) notifications for ATM permanent virtual circuits (PVCs) when the PVC state changes and when Operation, Administration and Maintenance (OAM) loopback fails for a PVC. This feature also provides information about the virtual path identifier/virtual channel identifier (VPI/VCI) in the ATM PVC traps.

          The ATM OAM AIS-RDI Monitoring feature extends the existing ATM virtual circuit OAM functionality to include monitoring of the Alarm Indication Signal-Remote Defect Indication (AIS-RDI).

          Prerequisites for ATM SNMP Trap and OAM Enhancements

          Before you enable ATM PVC trap support, you must configure Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) support and an IP routing protocol on your router. For more information about configuring SNMP support, refer to the chapter "Configuring SNMP Support" in the Cisco IOS XE Network Management Configuration Guide.

          To receive PVC failure notification and to allow access to PVC status tables on your router, you must have the Cisco extended ATM PVC trap MIB called CISCO-IETF-ATM2-PVCTRAP-MIB-EXTN.my compiled in your Network Management System (NMS) application. You can find this MIB at Cisco’s MIB website: http:/​/​www.cisco.com/​go/​mibs.

          The legacy ATM PVC trap must be disabled by using the no snmp-server enable traps atm pvc command before extended ATM PVC traps are configured.

          Restrictions for ATM SNMP Trap and OAM Enhancements

          • Extended ATM PVC traps cannot be used at the same time as the legacy ATM PVC trap. The legacy ATM PVC trap must be disabled by using the no snmp-server enable traps atm pvc command before extended ATM PVC traps are configured.
          • ATM PVC UP traps are not generated for newly created PVCs. They are generated only for PVCs that go from the DOWN state to the UP state.

          Information About ATM SNMP Trap and OAM Enhancements

          The ATM SNMP Trap and OAM Enhancements feature introduces the following enhancements to the SNMP notifications for ATM permanent virtual circuits (PVCs) and to OAM functionality:

          • ATM PVC traps will be generated when the operational state of a PVC changes from the DOWN state to the UP state.
          • ATM PVC traps will be generated when OAM loopback fails, and the PVC will remain in the UP state, rather than going down.
          • The ATM PVC traps are now extended to include virtual path identifier/virtual channel identifier (VPI/VCI) information, the number of state transitions a PVC goes through in an interval, and the time stamp of the first and the last PVC state transition.

          ATM PVC Up Trap

          Before the introduction of the ATM SNMP trap and OAM enhancements, the only SNMP notifications for ATM PVCs were the ATM PVC failure traps that were generated when a PVC failed or left the UP operational state. The ATM SNMP trap and OAM enhancements introduce ATM PVC up traps, which are generated when a PVC changes from the DOWN state to the UP state.

          ATM PVC OAM Failure Trap

          The ATM SNMP trap and OAM enhancements introduce the ATM PVC OAM failure trap. OAM loopback is a mechanism that detects whether a connection is up or down by sending OAM end-to-end loopback command/response cells. An OAM loopback failure indicates that the PVC has lost connectivity. The ATM PVC OAM failure trap is generated when OAM loopback for a PVC fails and is sent at the end of the notification interval.

          When OAM loopback for a PVC fails, the PVC is included in the atmStatusChangePVclRangeTable or atmCurrentStatusChangePVclTable and in the ATM PVC OAM failure trap.

          Before this feature was introduced, if OAM loopback failed, the PVC was placed in the DOWN state. When the ATM PVC OAM failure trap is enabled, the PVC remains up even if OAM loopback fails, and thus it ensures continuous flow of data.


          Note

          ATM PVC traps are generated at the end of the notification interval. It is possible to generate three types of ATM PVC traps (the ATM PVC failure trap, ATM PVC up trap, and ATM PVC OAM failure trap) at the end of the same notification interval. However, only one type of trap is generated for each PVC.

          Extended ATM PVC Traps

          The ATM SNMP Trap and OAM Enhancements feature introduces extended ATM PVC traps. The extended traps include VPI/VCI information for affected PVCs, the number of up-to-down and down-to-up state transitions that a PVC goes through in an interval, and the time stamp of the first and the last PVC state transition.


          Note

          Extended ATM PVC traps cannot be used at the same time as the legacy ATM PVC trap. The legacy ATM PVC trap must be disabled by using the no snmp-server enable traps atm pvc command before extended ATM PVC traps are configured.

          ATM PVC High Watermark Trap

          The ATM SNMP Trap and OAM Enhancements feature introduces a high watermark trap. A trap is generated when the number of configured PVCs in an interface and related subinterfaces exceeds a preconfigured high watermark threshold. When the number of configured PVCs in an interface and related subinterfaces falls below the high watermark threshold, another trap is generated to indicate that the fault is cleared. A minimum duration between the occurrence of two consecutive high watermark thresholds can also be set.

          Supported MIB Objects and Tables

          The ATM PVC trap is defined in the ATM PVC trap MIB. The ATM SNMP trap and OAM enhancements introduce the following tables and MIB objects:

          • The table atmInterfaceExt2Table displays the status of ATM PVCs and is indexed by ifIndex. This table contains the following objects:
            • atmIntfCurrentlyDownToUpPVcls
            • atmIntfOAMFailedPVcls
            • atmIntfCurrentlyOAMFailingPVcls
          • The table atmCurrentStatusChangePVclTable displays information about ATM PVCs that undergo an operational state change and is indexed by ifIndex, atmVclVpi, and atmVclVci. This table contains the following objects:
            • atmPVclStatusTransition
            • atmPVclStatusChangeStart
            • atmPVclStatusChangeEnd
          • The table atmStatusChangePVclRangeTable displays information about ATM PVC ranges and is indexed by ifIndex, atmVclVpi, and rangeIndex. This table contains the following objects:
            • atmPVclLowerRangeValue
            • atmPVclHigherRangeValue
            • atmPVclRangeStatusChangeStart
            • atmPVclRangeStatusChangeEnd
          • The ATM PVC Up Trap "atmIntfPvcUpTrap" contains the following objects:
            • ifIndex
            • atmIntfCurrentlyDownToUpPVcls
          • The ATM PVC OAM Failure Trap atmIntfPvcOAMFailureTrap contains the following objects:
            • ifIndex
            • atmIntfOAMFailedPVcls
            • atmIntfCurrentlyOAMFailingPVcls

          ATM OAM AIS-RDI Monitoring

          The ATM OAM Alarm Indication Signal--Reverse Defect Indication (AIS-RDI) Monitoring feature extends the existing ATM VC OAM functionality to include monitoring of the AIS-RDI. Once the feature is enabled, OAM AIS-RDI is monitored on the VCs. If the number of consecutive OAM AIS-RDI cells received is greater than a configurable number, the VC is brought down. The VC is brought up when there are no OAM AIS-RDI cells received within a configurable interval.

          Benefits of Configuring ATM SNMP Trap and OAM Enhancements

          The ATM SNMP Trap and OAM Enhancements and the ATM OAM AIS-RDI Monitoring features have the following benefits:

          • Enables you to use SNMP to detect the recovery of PVCs that are down.
          • Enables you to use SNMP to detect when OAM loopback fails for a PVC.
          • Keeps the PVC in the UP state when OAM loopback fails to allow continuous flow of data.
          • Provides VPI/VCI information in the ATM PVC traps to let you know the PVC that changed operational state or encountered an OAM loopback failure.
          • Provides statistics on the number of state transitions that a PVC goes through.
          • Provides flexibility to control the status change of a PVC when a faulty condition is detected on a VC and OAM VC-AIS cells are generated.
          • Generates a trap to identify if configured PVCs under an interface and related subinterfaces exceed the configured threshold.

                  Step 5 oam ais-rdi [down-count [up-count]]


                  Example:
                  Router(config-if-atm-vc)# oam ais-rdi 1 3
                   

                  Configures an ATM PVC to be brought down after a specified number of OAM AIS/RDI cells have been received on the PVC or to be brought up if no OAM AIS/RDI cells have been received in a specified interval.

                   
                  Step 6 end


                  Example:
                  Router(config-if-atm-vc)# end
                   

                  Exits ATM VC configuration mode and returns to privileged EXEC mode.

                   

                  Verifying ATM PVC Traps

                  To verify the configuration of ATM PVC traps, use the show running-config command.

                  Configuration Examples for ATM SNMP Traps and OAM Enhancements

                  Example Configuring Extended ATM PVC Trap Support

                  The following example shows the three extended ATM PVC traps enabled on a router. If PVC 0/1 either leaves the up state or down state or encounters an OAM loopback failure, then the host 172.16.61.90 receives SNMP notifications:

                  ! Configure SNMP support and an IP routing protocol on your router:
Router(config)# snmp-server community public ro
Router(config)# snmp-server host 172.16.61.90 public 
Router(config)# ip routing
Router(config)# router igrp 109
Router(config-router)# network 172.16.0.0
!
! Enable extended ATM PVC trap support and OAM management:
Router(config)# snmp-server enable traps atm pvc extension down
Router(config)# snmp-server enable traps atm pvc extension up
Router(config)# snmp-server enable traps atm pvc extension oam failure loopback
Router(config)# interface atm 0/1/0.1 
Router(config-if)# pvc 0/1
Router(config-if-atm-vc)# oam-pvc manage

                  Examples Extended ATM PVC Trap Output

                  This section contains examples of output for the extended ATM PVC traps.

                  Extended ATM PVC Failure Trap Output

                  The following example shows the output for the extended ATM PVC failure trap for PVCs 1/100, 1/102, and 1/103. Note that only one trap is generated for all the PVCs associated with the same interface or subinterface (in contrast to the legacy ATM PVC failure trap that generates a separate trap for each PVC). The VPI/VCI information and timing are located in the objects that are associated with the trap.

ifEntry.1.19 = 19
atmIntfCurrentlyDownToUpPVcls.2 = 3
atmPVclLowerRangeValue.19.1.2 = 102
atmPVclHigherRangeValue.19.1.2 = 103
atmPVclRangeStatusChangeStart.19.1.2 = 186005
atmPVclRangeStatusChangeEnd.19.1.2 = 186053
atmPVclStatusTransition.19.1.100 = 1

                  Example Enabling OAM AIS-RDI Monitoring

                  The following example shows how to enable OAM ASI-RDI monitoring in ATM VC configuration mode:

                  Router> enable
Router# configure terminal
Router(config)# interface atm 2/0/0
Router(config-if)# pvc 0/400
Router(config-if-atm-vc)# oam ais-rdi 25 5
Router(config-if-atm-vc)# end

                  The following example shows how to enable OAM ASI-RDI monitoring in ATM VC class configuration mode:

                  Router> enable
Router# configure terminal
Router(config)# vc-class atm vctest
Router(config-vc-class)# oam ais-rdi 14 5
Router(config-vc-class)# end
