Description: Manages Serial Tunnel (STUN) encapsulation for transporting SNA and BISYNC traffic over IP networks.

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-STUN-MIB?

CISCO-STUN-MIB is a Cisco enterprise MIB for Serial Tunnel (STUN), a legacy Cisco feature that encapsulates SNA and BISYNC serial protocol traffic for transport over an IP network between two Cisco routers acting as tunnel endpoints. It exposes configuration and operational data organized into global STUN settings, STUN groups, STUN ports, and STUN routes, including protocol type per group and default peer addressing per port. Its monitoring value lies in the operational status of the serial tunneling relationship: administrators track group and port configuration, peer IP/serial-interface bindings, and route table entries to confirm a STUN tunnel is correctly paired end-to-end and forwarding legacy traffic as expected. It has no significant external MIB dependency beyond standard Cisco enterprise conventions, being a self-contained legacy feature MIB. It is deployed on older Cisco routers bridging legacy SNA/BISYNC serial devices over modern IP backbones. Engineers can download the CISCO-STUN-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in CISCO-STUN-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 with Serial Tunnel (STUN) feature

Monitoring Examples

An administrator would walk stunGroupTable/stunGroupEntry to check stunProtocolType per stunGroupIndex, confirming the correct legacy protocol (e.g., SDLC/BISYNC) is configured for that tunnel group. Reviewing stunPortTable/stunPortEntry for stunPortDefaultPeerIP and stunPortDefaultPeerSerialInterface would verify a port's default peer is correctly bound to the remote router and serial line, and stunRouteTable entries would show which specific routes are established. A port showing an unreachable or mismatched stunPortDefaultPeerIP would explain a broken serial-over-IP connection between the two Cisco routers.

What Can Be Monitored

  • STUN group protocol type
  • STUN port default peer IP/serial interface
  • STUN route table entries
  • global STUN IP address configuration

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using stunRouteRxPackets OID:

Select a Cisco router with Serial Tunnel (STUN) feature (legacy) 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 stunRouteRxPackets 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. It reports the count of frames received from the serial interface with this station's address. 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 Counter32-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.
