Hi Josh,

from the Ascend MIBs using getif.exe:

.1.3.6.1.4.1.529.10.5
is
.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.ascend.eventGroup.eventCurrentActi
veCalls
description: The number of calls currently active.

.1.3.6.1.4.1.529.4.24
is
.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.ascend.advancedAgent.wanSwitchedCh
annels
description: The sum of wanLineSwitchedChannels for all lines.


perhaps you wanted to try
.1.3.6.1.4.1.529.4.23
which is
.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.ascend.advancedAgent.wanAvailableC
hannels
description: The sum of wanLineAvailableChannels for all lines.


from your mail it seems your looking for used modems and available modems.
I think the above OIDs count different things.
Some Data from one of our MAX 6000:

eventCurrentActiveCalls shows 9 which includes about 6 leased lines.
from my understanding this entry shows all active Lines (leased and
switched)

wanSwitchedChannels shows 30 which is the total number of channels on 
our E1 Dialup-Line.

wanAvailableChannels shows 27 which is the number of digital channels which
are
unused on our E1 Dialup-Line

.1.3.6.1.4.1.529.4.26 which is wanActiveChannels shows 3
this is the total number of used channels on our E1. But this is the sum
of all analog and digital calls. 
Could be there is no modem in use but 3 digital lines!


Did another search in the Ascend MIBs. Found some stuff on Modems.
Maybe I'll use them in future but maybe you can tell us if they are right...

.1.3.6.1.4.1.529.15.1
is
.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.ascend.lanModemGroup.availLanModem
description: The number of lan modems in the availLanModemTable.

and
.1.3.6.1.4.1.529.15.9
is
.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.ascend.lanModemGroup.busyLanModem
description: The number of lan modems in the busyLanModemTable.

I didn't find a ".TotalNumberOfBuildInModems" but if needed
you could use the maths from "Daniel R . Kilbourne"'s mail
which arrived some minutes after yours.

Shows 15 avail and 1 busy at the moment which totals to the correct value
of 16 modems build on our modem card.


hope I could help you a little :))
did find some time for you today evening though its 22:30 in germany ;-)

bye,


 Joerg Helmert

I am using this: 1.3.6.1.4.1.529.10.5.0&1.3.6.1.4.1.529.4.24.0:xxxx at xxxx as
my OID's on an Ascend MAX to monitor used modems and available modems.
10.5.0 should be showing the used modems (which it does fine) and according
to http://www.ee.ethz.ch/~slist/mrtg/msg02360.html
4.24.0 should show unused ports, but it doesnt.  In my graphs I see the
total number of ports as what should be the unused.  I have searched the
archives and everything points to how to monitor used connections, but
little info on available connections.  Any insight would help.  If the only
reponse is RTFM or search the archives, please tell me where in the FM it
discusses this, or which message I should read.  So far, searching for
availble modem ascend in the archives returns little of use.
