Description: Manages Cisco WiMAX ASN (Access Service Network) gateway configuration and session statistics.

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 CISCO-ASN-GATEWAY-MIB?

CISCO-ASN-GATEWAY-MIB is a Cisco enterprise MIB that manages Cisco's WiMAX Access Service Network Gateway (ASN-GW), a component of first-generation WiMAX (802.16) wireless network architecture that mediates between radio base stations and the core network. It exposes gateway instance data such as description, software version, operational state, session redundancy administration, and capacity limits like maximum base stations and maximum subscribers. Its monitoring emphasis includes both software status (operational state, redundancy configuration, version) and capacity/load indicators (maximum vs. current base station and subscriber counts), which together reveal whether the gateway is healthy and whether it is approaching configured scaling limits. It is a Cisco-proprietary MIB specific to WiMAX ASN-GW architecture without dependency on a broader standard MIB. It is deployed in WiMAX mobile/fixed wireless broadband networks where Cisco ASN-GW hardware anchors base station sessions, and network teams often start with a CISCO-ASN-GATEWAY-MIB download to load the module into their MIB browser before polling these objects.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in CISCO-ASN-GATEWAY-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

  • Cisco WiMAX ASN Gateway (ASN-GW)

Monitoring Examples

An operator would poll cagwInstanceOperState and cagwInstanceVersion from cagwInstanceTable to confirm a gateway instance is operationally up and running the expected software version, and compare live session counts against cagwMaximumBaseStations and cagwMaximumSubscribers from cagwStateTable to detect the gateway approaching its configured subscriber or base-station capacity, which would warrant capacity planning or redundancy failover via cagwInstanceSessionRedundancyAdmin.

What Can Be Monitored

  • gateway instance operational state
  • software version
  • session redundancy administration
  • maximum base stations/subscribers vs. current usage

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using cagwGeneratedNotifs OID:

Select a Cisco WiMAX ASN Gateway (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 cagwGeneratedNotifs into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, then select it and click OK. The number of notifications that have been generated for this management information base. 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 (in notifications), 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.
