About MIBs

Cisco UMG supports SNMP MIBs and traps for monitoring its status. Cisco UMG supports the basic SNMP MIBs and traps:

SNMPv2-MIB

IF-MIB

IP-MIB

SYSAPPL-MIB

CISCO-PROCESS-MIB

CISCO-SYSLOG-MIB


Note The system uses the CISCO-SYSLOG-MIB to convey alert information generated by Cisco UMG. You can filter the syslog records to find Cisco UMG alerts by finding records where clogHistSeverity = "srsx" and clogHistMsgName = "Alerts". For more information about the log, see Viewing a Log File.


You can identify information about your system by reviewing the object ID. See Table 12 for the SNMPv2-MIB object IDs that describe the system software and Table 13 for the entity object IDs that describe the hardware used. Note that there is currently no way to distinguish between a UMG-NME and a UMG-NME-EC.

These are the expected results from doing an SNMP request or query:

Working With SNMP Community Strings

Communities can either be read-only or read-write only.

Restriction

You can only define up to five read-only community strings and up to five read-write community strings.

Procedure


Step 1 Select System > SNMP > Communities.

The system displays the SNMP Communities page.

Step 2 To add an SNMP community string, do the following:

a. In an empty space, enter the SNMP community string. If there are no empty spaces, you must first delete another SNMP community string before you can add a new one. You can only define up to five read-only community strings and up to five read-write community strings.

b. Click Update.

Step 3 To edit an existing SNMP community string, do the following:

a. Go to the SNMP community string that you want to edit and edit the name.

b. Click Update.

Step 4 To remove an SNMP community string, do the following:

a. Go to the SNMP community string that you want to delete and highlight the name.

b. Click Delete on your keyboard.

The community string of the SNMP trap host.

Restriction

The hostname that you enter must be found in the DNS.

Procedure


Step 1 Select System > SNMP > Hosts.

The system displays the SNMP Trap Hosts page.

Step 2 To add an SNMP trap host, do the following:

a. Click Add. The system displays the SNMP Host Profile page.

b. Enter the hostname and the community string for the SNMP trap.

c. Click Update.

Step 3 To edit an existing SNMP trap host, do the following:

a. Click the underlined hostname of the SNMP trap host that you want to edit. The system displays the SNMP Host Profile page.

b. Edit the values for the hostname or the community string for the SNMP trap.
