First of all, many thanks to Peter.

While waiting for an answer of the list, I found some useful documentation about
APX mibs: on the APX-8000 admin guide I found a brief list of mibs.

I prepared 4 .cfg file: one for monitoring total incoming calls (the mib I used
is 1.3.6.1.4.1.529.4.26.0, that gives the same value of 1.3.6.1.4.1.529.10.6.0,
the mib cited by Paul), one for monitoring in detail analogue and digital
incoming calls, one for monitoring accounting on radius and the last for
monitoring authentication on radius.

These are the .cfg I prepared:

Beg your pardon for the language... but I think they are self-explaing even in
Italian.

In our configuration, we have a separate radius server for accounting and
authentication.
I checked some mibs in the radius group, but the ones I used in the .cfgs above
don't work (the value I have is always zero...).
I'm interested in monitoring also accounting and authenitication for veryfing
the correspondance of authentication and account requests and effective active
sessions: in brief I'm interested in monitoring also failed sessions.

Many thanks in advance.

I haven't used an APX, but we use the Max TNT, which runs the same
code and uses the same slot cards. It'll probably be the same.

I was able to find the OIDs I needed in the Max TNT's SNMP manual.
The APX should also have one, but if not, download the TNT's manual.

Some useful OIDs:

1.3.6.1.4.1.529.11.5.0 Current modem calls (callCurrentAnalogIncoming)
1.3.6.1.4.1.529.11.7.0 Current ISDN calls (callCurrentDigitalIncoming)

1.3.6.1.4.1.529.10.6.0 Current sessions (eventCurrentActiveSessions)

1.3.6.1.4.1.529.15.1.0 (BusyLanModem)
1.3.6.1.4.1.529.15.9.0 (availLanModem)

1.3.6.1.4.1.529.4.23.0 Maximum available lines (wanAvailableChannels)

You can also graph a given hunt group by adding the lines that make
it up together. The OIDs vary based upon the slot and port the T1(s)
are in. Here's an example target with two PRI in a hunt group:

Target[twoprihunt]:
  1.3.6.1.4.1.529.4.21.1.7.304&1.3.6.1.4.1.529.4.21.1.7.305:community at APX +
  1.3.6.1.4.1.529.4.21.1.7.305&1.3.6.1.4.1.529.4.21.1.7.304:community at APX

The Ascend list is an excellent resource for Ascend/Lucent-related issues.
