Description: Provides general management for Cisco TelePresence endpoints including call status, codec, and peripheral monitoring.

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-TELEPRESENCE-MIB?

CISCO-TELEPRESENCE-MIB provides general management for Cisco TelePresence video-collaboration systems, covering the CODEC unit and its attached peripherals such as displays, cameras, speakers, microphones, and presentation devices. It exposes network configuration data (VLAN ID, default gateway), system-control objects (a remote system-reset action), and a peripheral status table tracking each attached peripheral's description and current status. Its monitoring focus is squarely on hardware health of the TelePresence endpoint: ctpPeripheralStatusTable reveals whether a camera, display, microphone, or other peripheral has failed or disconnected, while notification-enable objects govern alerts for peripheral errors, user authentication failures, and peripheral status changes, and ctpSystemReset supports remote recovery of a hung CODEC. As a Cisco-proprietary endpoint-management MIB, it doesn't appear to formally build on other MIBs, though it would typically be polled alongside standard interface MIBs for the endpoint's network connectivity. It is typically deployed on Cisco TelePresence CODEC and room-system hardware in enterprise video-conferencing deployments. Engineers searching for cisco telepresence system reference this MIB to monitor Cisco TelePresence endpoint status via SNMP.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in CISCO-TELEPRESENCE-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 TelePresence CODEC and room-system endpoints

Monitoring Examples

An admin would poll ctpPeripheralStatusTable/ctpPeripheralStatusEntry keyed by ctpPeripheralIndex to read ctpPeripheralDescription and ctpPeripheralStatus for each attached device, catching a camera or microphone reporting a fault status before a scheduled TelePresence meeting. Enabling ctpPeriStatusChangeNotifyEnable and ctpPeripheralErrorNotifyEnable ensures the system sends a trap the moment a peripheral drops offline rather than requiring constant polling. Separately, ctpSysUserAuthFailNotifyEnable would alert on repeated failed login attempts to the CODEC's management interface, and ctpSystemReset could be invoked remotely if the CODEC becomes unresponsive.

What Can Be Monitored

  • peripheral (camera/display/mic/speaker) status
  • peripheral error notifications
  • authentication failure alerts
  • VLAN and default gateway configuration
  • remote system reset

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using ctpRS232PeripheralConnStatus OID:

Select a Cisco TelePresence endpoint 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 ctpRS232PeripheralConnStatus 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 specifies peripheral which is connected via RS232. 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 an INTEGER-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the value is anything other than 'connected', since that indicates the condition this object reports has changed to one worth investigating. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
