Description: Configures and monitors SSH server settings and active sessions on Cisco Small Business switches.

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 CISCOSB-SSH-MIB?

CISCOSB-SSH-MIB is a Cisco Small Business private enterprise MIB that configures and monitors the SSH server on Cisco Small Business switches. It exposes SSH server host public key data, including per-algorithm key tables and key fingerprint tables, along with general SSH server and client configuration objects. Its monitoring role centers on software/service status: verifying the SSH server's host key material and fingerprint is correctly generated and unchanged (which would flag a re-keyed or compromised device) and confirming SSH client/server functionality is active as expected, rather than tracking hardware sensors. As a CISCOSB private MIB it typically sits alongside standard SNMPv3 security MIBs and other CISCOSB management MIBs on the same device rather than depending on a specific IETF SSH standard MIB. It is deployed on Cisco Small Business managed switches where SSH is used for secure remote CLI administration. Engineers can download the CISCOSB-SSH-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in CISCOSB-SSH-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 Small Business switch

Monitoring Examples

An administrator would query rlSshServerHostPublicKeyTable and its rlSshServerHostPublicKeyFingerprintTable entries to confirm the SSH server's host key algorithm (rlSshServerHostPublicKeyAlgorithm) and fingerprint (rlSshServerHostPublicKeyFingerprint) match the expected, previously recorded value. An unexpected change in the fingerprint returned for a given rlSshServerHostPublicKeyFingerprintAlgorithm would indicate the device's SSH host key was regenerated, possibly after a factory reset or firmware reflash, which should trigger a certificate-pinning alert on management systems. rlSshServer and rlSshClient objects would also be checked to confirm SSH services remain enabled.

What Can Be Monitored

  • SSH server enabled/disabled state
  • SSH host public key algorithm
  • SSH host key fingerprint
  • SSH client status
