Description: Manages IP SLA video traffic profiles defining codec parameters and quality thresholds for testing.

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-IPSLA-VIDEO-PROFILE-MIB?

CISCO-IPSLA-VIDEO-PROFILE-MIB is a Cisco proprietary module that extends the Cisco IP SLA (Service Level Agreement) active network monitoring framework to define video traffic test profiles, specifying codec, resolution, frame rate, and content parameters used when generating synthetic video traffic for performance testing. Its data is configuration-oriented, exposing named, versioned video profile entries rather than live device hardware sensors. Its monitoring role is indirect but important for software/service quality assurance: by defining the parameters IP SLA uses to simulate video streams, it underpins measurement of network readiness for real video/voice services (jitter, loss, delay proxies) rather than reporting CPU, memory, or power status directly. It depends on the broader Cisco IP SLA infrastructure, particularly the RTTMON-MIB (rttMonEchoAdmin) which actually schedules and runs the operations referencing these profiles. It is deployed on Cisco IOS/IOS-XE routers and switches, where CISCO-IPSLA-VIDEO-PROFILE-MIB SNMP monitoring helps proactively assess network readiness for video conferencing or video streaming services before production rollout.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in CISCO-IPSLA-VIDEO-PROFILE-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 router
  • Cisco switch running IP SLA

Monitoring Examples

An administrator configures an entry in cipslaVideoProfileTable/cipslaVideoProfileEntry, setting cipslaVideoProfileCodec, cipslaVideoProfileResolution, and cipslaVideoProfileFrameRate to mimic a specific video call type, then references that cipslaVideoProfileID from an IP SLA operation to generate synthetic video traffic across a WAN path. Reviewing cipslaVideoProfileRowStatus confirms the profile is active, and comparing measured IP SLA results against the profile's cipslaVideoProfileVideoContents settings helps reveal whether network conditions would degrade a real video conferencing session before it's deployed.

What Can Be Monitored

  • configured video profile parameters
  • codec and resolution settings
  • frame rate settings
  • profile row status (active/inactive)
