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 COLUBRIS-DEVICE-MIB?
COLUBRIS-DEVICE-MIB is a vendor-private base MIB, originally from Colubris Networks and carried forward under HP after acquisition, providing core device identity and hardware status objects for Colubris/HP wireless access points. It defines a device discovery table cataloging managed APs by serial number, MAC address, and IP address, together with notification-enable switches for state changes and for authorization, security, firmware, and configuration failures. This gives it a clear monitoring role in tracking access-point software/firmware and operational health: coDevDisState reflects each AP's current status, and the firmware- and configuration-failure notifications flag failed upgrades or bad configuration pushes on individual units. It serves as a foundation MIB that other Colubris/HP wireless MIBs (radio, WLAN, client) build upon. It is typically used in enterprise or hospitality WLAN deployments managing fleets of Colubris-derived HP access points from a central controller or NMS, and administrators commonly load COLUBRIS-DEVICE-MIB into a MIB browser to walk coDeviceDiscoveryTable interactively before rolling the module out to a full NMS template.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in COLUBRIS-DEVICE-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
- Colubris/HP wireless access point
Monitoring Examples
An administrator would poll coDeviceDiscoveryTable, walking each coDeviceDiscoveryEntry to check coDevDisState and coDevDisIpAddress for a given coDevDisSerialNumber, confirming an AP is reachable and healthy. Enabling coDeviceConfigurationFailureNotificationEnabled ensures a trap is raised if a bulk configuration push to a group of APs fails on a specific unit. An AP disappearing from the discovery table or showing an abnormal coDevDisState typically indicates a power, network, or firmware crash issue on that access point.
What Can Be Monitored
- device discovery/inventory list
- device operational state
- authorization failure events
- security failure events
- firmware failure events
- configuration failure events
