Description: Declares SNMP agent capabilities for packet capture and sniffing operations on Cisco routing and switching platforms.
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-PACKET-CAPTURE-CAPABILITY?
CISCO-PACKET-CAPTURE-CAPABILITY is an AGENT-CAPABILITIES module that declares which packet-capture/sniffing features of the companion CISCO-PACKET-CAPTURE-MIB a given Cisco routing or switching platform supports. It contains no operational objects, only conformance statements used by a management application to determine feature support before polling the real MIB. As a capabilities-only module it does not itself monitor hardware or software status; the underlying CISCO-PACKET-CAPTURE-MIB is what would expose capture session state and buffer data. It is entirely dependent on CISCO-PACKET-CAPTURE-MIB for operational meaning. It is used in NMS tooling for Cisco devices supporting embedded packet capture/troubleshooting features. Engineers can download the CISCO-PACKET-CAPTURE-CAPABILITY file directly to load it into their MIB browser.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in CISCO-PACKET-CAPTURE-CAPABILITY. 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 routers and switches with embedded packet capture support
Monitoring Examples
This module holds only AGENT-CAPABILITIES SUPPORTS statements for CISCO-PACKET-CAPTURE-MIB object groups; there are no tables or counters to poll here. No realistic monitoring scenario applies to this conformance-only module.
