Description: Manages Cisco IOS software images, tracking installed image metadata, feature sets, and flash storage allocation.

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-ENHANCED-IMAGE-MIB?

CISCO-ENHANCED-IMAGE-MIB is a Cisco proprietary MIB for tracking installed IOS/IOS-XE software images on modular Cisco devices, in the software image and configuration management technology area. It exposes an image table listing each installed image's name, product family, feature set, version, media type, description, and a related location table identifying where the image resides on flash storage, covering both base images and modular installable packages loaded on top of a base image. This gives it a direct software-status monitoring role, letting an operator confirm exactly which IOS version and feature set is currently running and where each image component is stored, which is central to upgrade and compliance tracking. It complements Cisco's flash-storage MIBs (such as CISCO-FLASH-MIB) for the physical storage-location context referenced by ceImageLocationTable. It is typically deployed on modular Cisco IOS/IOS-XE routers and switches such as ISR, ASR, and Catalyst platforms. Network engineers evaluating or troubleshooting this functionality can download the CISCO-ENHANCED-IMAGE-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in CISCO-ENHANCED-IMAGE-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 IOS/IOS-XE modular router or switch (e.g., ISR, ASR, Catalyst)

Monitoring Examples

An administrator would poll ceImageTable (via ceImageEntry/ceImageIndex) to check ceImageVersion and ceImageFeature across a fleet of routers, confirming they all run the expected, approved release. Cross-checking ceImageLocationTable would reveal where each installable image is stored in flash, and an unexpected ceImageVersion on one device would flag it as running an outdated or unauthorized software image.

What Can Be Monitored

  • installed software image name and version
  • image feature set/family
  • base image vs. installable packages
  • image storage location on flash
