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-DMN-DSG-VBI-MIB?
Also part of the Cisco DMN DSG D9800 satellite receiver product family, this MIB manages Vertical Blanking Interval (VBI) data processing, which carries ancillary signals like closed captioning, timecode, and test signals within the video frame. Exposed objects cover VITS (Vertical Interval Test Signal) flags, VITC (Vertical Interval Time Code) mode and status, timecode, color mode, delay compensation, and drop-frame settings. This MIB is used to check the software/processing status of VBI insertion and decoding, for example confirming VITC timecode is being correctly read (vbiVitcStatus) and that delay compensation is applied, functioning as a service-health check rather than a hardware sensor MIB. It depends on Cisco's proprietary DMN/DSG architecture with no notable ties to external standard MIBs. It is deployed in broadcast and cable headend facilities where D9800 units process satellite video feeds requiring VBI data preservation, and CISCO-DMN-DSG-VBI-MIB SNMP monitoring confirms ancillary signal integrity across the satellite video chain.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in CISCO-DMN-DSG-VBI-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 satellite receiver
- broadcast/cable headend video processing equipment
Monitoring Examples
An operator would poll vbiVitcStatus and vbiTimeCode to confirm timecode is being correctly extracted or inserted into the outgoing signal, and check vbiVitcMode/vbiDropFrame to ensure the correct timecode format is applied. Monitoring vbiVitsFlag17/vbiVitsFlag18/vbiVitsFlag330/vbiVitsFlag331 reveals whether specific test signal lines are enabled, and vbiDelayComp confirms delay compensation settings match the plant's timing requirements.
What Can Be Monitored
- VITC timecode status
- VITC mode and drop-frame setting
- VITS test signal flags
- delay compensation
- color mode
