CISCO-VIDEO-TC

Description: Defines textual conventions for Cisco video management MIBs including codec types, resolution, and session state data types.

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.

This MIB module is a Cisco-specific textual-conventions (TC) module that defines shared data types used by other Cisco MIBs covering video-capable products and network equipment, such as codec types, video resolutions, and session states. It does not itself expose object instances or tables; rather it standardizes the enumerations and syntax definitions that dependent video-management MIBs reuse for consistent representation. Because it contains no runtime objects, it has no direct role in monitoring hardware or software status by itself — its value is indirect, ensuring that video codec, resolution, and session-state fields reported by other Cisco video MIBs are consistently typed and interpreted. It is a foundational dependency MIB that other CISCO video-management MIBs import from, rather than a standalone monitoring module. Typical deployment context is alongside Cisco video conferencing, telepresence, or video-capable voice gateway platforms where multiple MIBs need a common vocabulary for video attributes. Engineers can download the CISCO-VIDEO-TC file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

Since CISCO-VIDEO-TC defines only textual conventions and no object identifiers or tables of its own, there are no polled objects to describe a monitoring scenario for. The sample_objects list is empty, confirming this is a definitions-only module consumed by other MIBs rather than a source of instance data. In practice, a NOC would never poll CISCO-VIDEO-TC directly; instead they poll the video-capable device's own MIB (which imports these textual conventions) for actual codec type or session state values.
