ACS8000-MIB

Description: Manages the Cyclades ACS 8000 console server, providing port configuration, session management, and out-of-band access control objects.

Import MIBs, browse SNMP OIDs, create custom SNMP monitors, configure alerts, and monitor any SNMP-enabled network device from a single console.

ACS8000-MIB is a vendor-specific SNMP module for the Cyclades/Avocent ACS 8000 series console (out-of-band access) server, providing objects for device identity, port configuration, session management, and system control. It exposes hardware identity data (host name, product model, part number, serial number, firmware/bootcode version) as well as operational data such as power supply state and active session counts. Its monitoring value is strongly hardware/software status oriented: it reports firmware and bootcode version for software currency checks, dual power supply states (acsPowerSupplyStatePw1/Pw2) for power redundancy health, and active session counts for capacity/security monitoring, plus a remote reboot control object. It is a self-contained vendor MIB, typically used alongside standard system MIBs like the SNMPv2-MIB for basic system uptime. It is deployed wherever an ACS 8000 console server provides out-of-band serial console access to racks of network and server equipment, and administrators typically load the ACS8000-MIB into a MIB Browser to poll these objects.

Sample objects include acsProductModel, acsSerialNumber, acsBootcodeVersion, acsFirmwareVersion, acsPowerSupplyNumber, acsPowerSupplyStatePw1, acsPowerSupplyStatePw2, and acsActiveSessionsNumberOfSession. An administrator would poll acsPowerSupplyStatePw1/Pw2 to confirm both power supplies in a redundant pair are healthy, flagging a failed unit before it becomes a single point of failure, and would monitor acsActiveSessionsNumberOfSession to detect unexpected console session activity. acsFirmwareVersion and acsBootcodeVersion would be checked to confirm the device is running the expected software release, and acsReboot could be invoked remotely to recover a hung unit.
