Description: MIB for displaying video sessions and controlling Switched Digital Video RPC configuration on ARRIS D5 Universal Edge QAM devices

Start monitoring vendor-neutral, standards-based MIB, any SNMPv3-capable network device (SNMP engine identity/boot/clock status) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Import MIBs, browse SNMP OIDs, create custom SNMP monitors, configure alerts, and monitor any SNMP-enabled network device from a single console.

What Is ARRIS-D5-VIDEO-SESSION-MIB?

This proprietary ARRIS MIB displays active video sessions and controls Switched Digital Video (SDV) Resource Pool Coordinator (RPC) configuration on the D5 Universal Edge QAM, a cable headend video delivery device. It exposes both configuration data for the SDV RPC subsystem (compatibility mode, persistence, QAM model, master SRM address, reset behavior, timeouts) and runtime/statistical data about SDV RPC requests and video sessions. For monitoring purposes it is used to check the operational health and software behavior of the SDV RPC service — confirming the RPC is reachable and correctly configured against the master Session Resource Manager (SRM), and tracking RPC request statistics and reset events to catch failures in video session setup or switched digital video delivery. It depends on and interoperates with the DNCS (Digital Network Control System) via the d5SdvRpcDncsCompatibility setting, tying it to the broader ARRIS/Cisco DNCS-based SDV ecosystem. It is deployed in cable operator headends running Switched Digital Video services on D5 Universal Edge QAM chassis, where engineers typically obtain the ARRIS-D5-VIDEO-SESSION-MIB download from ARRIS/Cisco to compile it into their monitoring systems.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in ARRIS-D5-VIDEO-SESSION-MIB. Use the built-in SNMP Monitoring Browser to explore available variables, view their current values and descriptions, and select the objects you want to monitor. You can then create SNMP monitors, configure thresholds, and receive alerts when monitored values change.

Supported Devices

  • ARRIS D5 Universal Edge QAM

Monitoring Examples

An operator monitoring SDV health would check d5SdvRpcMasterSrmIpAddress and d5SdvRpcDncsCompatibility to confirm the RPC is correctly paired with its master SRM/DNCS, and poll the d5SdvRpcStatsTable (indexed by d5SdvRpcStatsIndex, with counters like d5SdvRpcStatsRequest) to track request volumes. A spike in reset events (via d5SdvRpcResetIndicatorType/Interval) or a stalled stats counter combined with a d5SdvRpcTimeout would indicate the RPC has lost contact with its master SRM or is failing to service SDV session requests.

What Can Be Monitored

  • active video session counts
  • SDV RPC configuration and compatibility mode
  • SDV RPC request statistics
  • RPC reset events/interval
  • RPC connectivity to master SRM

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using d5VideoSessionQamCreateSessions OID:

Select an ARRIS D5 Universal Edge QAM (UEQ) (legacy) as the target host to create a monitor — the SNMP service should be up and running on it. Click New Monitor, then check SNMP Custom on the Favorites tab, click Next, and confirm the host. On the next page, click Select... to open the built-in SNMP MIB Browser and type d5VideoSessionQamCreateSessions into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, selecting the specific row/instance you want to monitor since this is a table column, then select it and click OK. The total number of sessions created on this QAM channel. On the monitor's Main parameters page you can set the target's SNMP port (default 161), credentials, polling interval, and other settings — see the SNMP Monitor help for details. On the State conditions and Alerting tabs, configure when the monitor should change state and trigger an alert; since this is a Counter32-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the counter increases sharply between polls relative to its normal baseline, since an unexpected spike often reflects a real change in traffic or activity. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
