Description: Monitors Cisco cache engine (web proxy) hit rates, connections, and storage utilization.

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-CACHE-ENGINE-MIB?

CISCO-CACHE-ENGINE-MIB is a Cisco Systems, Inc. proprietary MIB for the Cisco Cache Engine web-caching appliance. Its objects cover a farm table (index, IP address), basic configuration (IP address, netmask, gateway, cache name, farm name, DNS domain), a DNS-server table (index, IP address), and ICP (Internet Cache Protocol) client settings (enabled flag, wait/retry timers, local domains, and a remote-server table with index, IP address, state, type, and ICP port). As a configuration/status MIB it lets an administrator confirm cache-farm membership and ICP peer state on a Cisco Cache Engine. It is deployed on Cisco Systems Cache Engine web-caching appliances. Engineers can download the CISCO-CACHE-ENGINE-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in CISCO-CACHE-ENGINE-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 Systems Cache Engine web-caching appliances

Monitoring Examples

An administrator checks cceIcpClientRemServState to confirm whether an ICP peer cache is reachable from a Cisco Cache Engine.

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using cceDiagDumpDiskCreates OID:

Select a Cisco Cache Engine web-caching appliance (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 cceDiagDumpDiskCreates into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, then select it and click OK. It reports the number of new files created. 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.
