Description: Defines textual conventions for Cisco entity diagnostics MIBs, providing consistent type definitions for diagnostic result codes.

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-ENTITY-DIAG-TC-MIB?

CISCO-ENTITY-DIAG-TC-MIB is a Cisco textual-conventions-only MIB module that defines shared data types (such as diagnostic result-code enumerations) used consistently across Cisco's family of Entity Diagnostics MIBs. It does not itself define runtime tables or scalar data objects; instead it standardizes how diagnostic values are represented so that other Cisco diagnostic MIBs can reference common types. Consequently it has no direct monitoring role for hardware or software status such as uptime, temperature, or memory -- that data is reported by the actual Cisco Entity Diagnostics MIB(s) that import these textual conventions. It is explicitly a dependency for other Cisco diagnostic MIBs (e.g., CISCO-ENTITY-DIAG-MIB), which import its type definitions to represent hardware self-test and diagnostic results consistently. It appears on Cisco platforms purely as a supporting/type-definition module underpinning Cisco's broader hardware diagnostics MIB family. Engineers can download the CISCO-ENTITY-DIAG-TC-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in CISCO-ENTITY-DIAG-TC-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 networking equipment (supporting module for diagnostics MIBs)

Monitoring Examples

This module defines only textual conventions (shared data types like diagnostic result-code enumerations) with no runtime data objects of its own, so there is no monitoring scenario to describe; actual diagnostic results are reported by the Cisco Entity Diagnostics MIB(s) that use these type definitions.
