What Is CISCO-DMN-DSG-PROTOCOLS-MIB?
CISCO-DMN-DSG-PROTOCOLS-MIB is a Cisco DMN D9800 digital satellite gateway MIB governing which management and control-plane protocols are enabled on the device, covering Telnet, SSH, HTTP, SNMP, RIP, IGMP, and Syslog, along with related session-idle timeout and syslog server configuration. It is a configuration/security-posture MIB rather than a performance-counter MIB, describing which access and routing protocols are active. Its monitoring value is largely operational-security oriented: confirming whether insecure protocols like Telnet or HTTP remain enabled, whether syslog forwarding is correctly targeted, and whether idle-session timeouts are set appropriately are all hardening/compliance checks rather than fault detection in the traditional sense. It depends on the broader CISCO-DMN-DSG device MIB set for context but has no strong external standards dependency beyond the protocols it toggles. It is used in satellite/cable headend deployments during security audits and configuration-compliance checks of gateway devices. Network engineers evaluating or troubleshooting this functionality can download the CISCO-DMN-DSG-PROTOCOLS-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in CISCO-DMN-DSG-PROTOCOLS-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 DMN D9800 digital satellite gateway
Monitoring Examples
A security-conscious operator would poll protocolsCtrlTelnet, protocolsCtrlSSH, and protocolsCtrlHTTP to confirm insecure management protocols have been disabled in favor of SSH, and check protocolsCtrlSyslog together with protocolsCtrlSyslogCfgIpAddr and protocolsCtrlSyslogCfgPort to verify logs are being forwarded to the correct collector. protocolslTimeoutsIdleSessonGlobal would be checked to ensure idle management sessions time out per policy. Finding protocolsCtrlTelnet still enabled on a production unit would flag a configuration-compliance violation.
What Can Be Monitored
- Telnet/SSH/HTTP/SNMP enabled state
- RIP and IGMP protocol state
- idle session timeout
- syslog enabled state
- syslog server IP address and port
