Description: Defines SNMP agent capability statements for the Cisco Diameter Session Gateway MIB.
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-DIAMETER-SG-CAPABILITY?
This is a Cisco AGENT-CAPABILITIES module (ciscoDiameterSGCapability) rather than an object-defining MIB — it documents which objects and access variations a specific Cisco IOS release (12.4(9)XG) supports for the companion CISCO-DIAMETER-SG-MIB, which manages Diameter server group configuration used for AAA/Diameter session gateway functions. It declares INCLUDES for the ciscoDiameterSGHostCfgGroup group and VARIATION clauses restricting cdsgServerGroupRowStatus/cdsgServerRowStatus to a subset of RowStatus values (active, createAndGo, destroy) and marking cdsgServerGroupStorageType/cdsgServerStorageType as read-only. Because it is a capabilities statement, it doesn't expose live counters itself; monitoring value comes from confirming which Diameter server-group row-creation and storage-type behaviors an agent actually implements before writing SNMP management scripts against CISCO-DIAMETER-SG-MIB. It's deployed alongside CISCO-DIAMETER-SG-MIB on Cisco IOS routers/gateways acting as Diameter session gateways, and network engineers verifying MIB support often consult the CISCO-DIAMETER-SG-CAPABILITY MIB reference to confirm SNMP compatibility before automating server-group provisioning.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in CISCO-DIAMETER-SG-CAPABILITY. 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 IOS routers/gateways running the Diameter Session Gateway feature (IOS 12.4(9)XG and later)
Monitoring Examples
An operator checks the ciscoDiameterSGCapabilityV12R0409XG entry to confirm that cdsgServerGroupRowStatus only supports active/createAndGo/destroy (not createAndWait or notInService) before scripting SNMP-based creation of a new Diameter server group; attempting an unsupported RowStatus transition would then be recognized as an expected agent limitation rather than a device fault.
What Can Be Monitored
- AGENT-CAPABILITIES variation/access declarations
- supported RowStatus values for server-group row creation
- storage-type read/write restrictions
- included conformance groups (ciscoDiameterSGHostCfgGroup)
- IOS release-specific MIB support
