What Is CISCO-NETWORK-REGISTRAR-MIB?

CISCO-NETWORK-REGISTRAR-MIB is a Cisco-specific module for Cisco Network Registrar (CNR), a DHCP and DNS server product, exposing address-scope utilization data and duplicate-IP-address detection notifications. It provides data categories covering DHCP scope configuration and free-address thresholds/levels, plus fault notifications for duplicate address conflicts. It supports monitoring the software/service status of the DNS/DHCP server application — scope free-address levels (cnrDHCPScopeFreeAddrValue against low/high thresholds) reveal address-pool exhaustion risk, while cnrNotifDupIpAddress traps flag a specific host/MAC in conflict, both of which are service-affecting conditions for network address management. As an application-layer MIB it depends on the underlying CNR DHCP/DNS engine rather than standard hardware MIBs, and is generally used alongside general host/OS monitoring of the CNR server itself. It is typically deployed on servers running Cisco Network Registrar for enterprise or service-provider DHCP/DNS management. Administrators of Cisco Network Registrar deployments search for this MIB specifically to monitor DHCP/DNS server health and duplicate-address detection through SNMP rather than the product's own web console.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in CISCO-NETWORK-REGISTRAR-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 Network Registrar (CNR) DHCP/DNS servers

Monitoring Examples

An administrator would poll cnrDHCPScopeTable/cnrDHCPScopeEntry for cnrDHCPScopeName and cnrDHCPScopeFreeAddrValue, comparing it against cnrDHCPScopeFreeAddrLowThreshold and cnrDHCPScopeFreeAddrHighThreshold to detect a scope approaching address exhaustion before clients start failing to obtain leases. A cnrNotifDupIpAddress trap carrying cnrNotifMACAddress and cnrNotifDupIpAddressDetectedBy identifies which server detected a duplicate IP conflict and the offending MAC address, letting an admin quickly locate the misconfigured host. cnrNotifServer and cnrNotifServerType identify which CNR server instance and role raised the notification.

What Can Be Monitored

  • DHCP scope free-address level vs thresholds
  • scope name and configuration
  • duplicate IP address detection events
  • offending MAC address on conflict
  • reporting server identity/type
