Description: Extends LISP (Locator/ID Separation Protocol) management with Cisco-specific EID, RLOC, and map cache objects.

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-LISP-EXT-MIB?

The CISCO-LISP-EXT-MIB is a Cisco extension to the IETF LISP-MIB (RFC 7052) that adds vendor-specific managed objects and traps for monitoring devices running the Locator/ID Separation Protocol (LISP), an overlay routing/addressing protocol. It exposes tables describing EID (Endpoint Identifier) registrations and their associated RLOC (Routing Locator) memberships, including whether entries were dynamically gleaned or statically configured. Operators use it to monitor the software-level state of LISP mapping relationships, tracking RLOC membership tables to detect stale, missing, or unexpectedly gleaned entries that could indicate mapping-system inconsistencies or misconfigured LISP xTRs. It explicitly depends on and extends the IETF LISP-MIB defined in RFC 7052, so it must be understood in that base-standard context. It is deployed in enterprise/data-center and service-provider networks using Cisco routers as LISP Ingress/Egress Tunnel Routers for location/identity separation, such as LISP-based data center interconnect or mobility solutions. Network engineers evaluating or troubleshooting this functionality can download the CISCO-LISP-EXT-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in CISCO-LISP-EXT-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 router configured as a LISP Ingress/Egress Tunnel Router (xTR)
  • Cisco IOS/IOS-XE routers (LISP)

Monitoring Examples

clispExtEidRegRlocMembershipTable/Entry expose per-EID RLOC membership details, including clispExtEidRegRlocMembershipRloc, clispExtEidRegRlocMembershipMemberSince, and flags clispExtEidRegRlocMembershipGleaned/Configured, letting an admin verify whether a given RLOC was learned dynamically or statically provisioned. Cross-referencing clispExtRlocMembershipTable per clispExtRlocMembershipInstanceID across multiple LISP instances helps spot an RLOC that unexpectedly dropped out of an EID's membership set, indicating a mapping update or connectivity failure.

What Can Be Monitored

  • EID-to-RLOC registration membership
  • RLOC membership age
  • gleaned vs. configured RLOC entries
  • LISP notifications

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using clispExtReliableTransportSessionMessagesIn OID:

Select a Cisco IOS/IOS-XE router as the target host to create a monitor — the SNMP service should be up and running on it. Click New Monitor, then check SNMP Custom on the Favorites tab, click Next, and confirm the host. On the next page, click Select... to open the built-in SNMP MIB Browser and type clispExtReliableTransportSessionMessagesIn into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, selecting the specific row/instance you want to monitor since this is a table column, then select it and click OK. This object indicates the number of messages received on this reliable transport session. On the monitor's Main parameters page you can set the target's SNMP port (default 161), credentials, polling interval, and other settings — see the SNMP Monitor help for details. On the State conditions and Alerting tabs, configure when the monitor should change state and trigger an alert; since this is a Counter64-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the counter increases sharply between polls relative to its normal baseline, since an unexpected spike often reflects a real change in traffic or activity. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
