7800DXL - SNMP access to DSL error counters

Hi,

Can anyone tell me if the Billion 7800DXL gives SNMP access to DSL error counts, stuff like FECs, uncorrected errors and errored seconds? Sorry if this is a basic question, but I couldn't find it answered by searching this forum, nor have I been able to track down the MIBs.

Thanks in advance, Tony S

There is no ability to capture DSL error and other errors using SNMP.

SNMP only capture normal DSL information such as DSL value, Line attenuation and Uptime etc (see attached image).
Disappointing response from Billion themselves on this question. I must say I would take issue with their definition of "normal DSL information" as clearly error rates are very much the normal information that people want to see on a DSL connection, as shown by the fact that the GUI displays these. I guess they couldn't be bothered with an enterprise MIB for these variables.
