Description: Manages local user account credentials and access rights on Colubris/HP wireless hotspot systems.

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-USER-ACCOUNT-MIB?

The COLUBRIS-USER-ACCOUNT-MIB is a vendor module from Colubris Networks (acquired by HP, becoming the HP MSM wireless controller line) that manages local guest/subscriber user accounts on wireless hotspot and access-controller systems. It exposes the local user account database, including usernames, service plan names, login timestamps, and remaining online/session time allowances. Rather than hardware health, this MIB's monitoring value is software/service-state focused: it lets an operator track account status (active, expired, disabled), session and time-based quota consumption, and expiration timing for each hotspot user. It also defines SNMP notifications for account-related events, tying into the broader Colubris/HP MSM SNMP notification framework. It is deployed on Colubris/HP MSM wireless hotspot controllers and access points providing paid or time-limited guest Wi-Fi access in hospitality, retail, or public-access venues. Engineers can download the COLUBRIS-USER-ACCOUNT-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in COLUBRIS-USER-ACCOUNT-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 MSM wireless hotspot controllers and access points

Monitoring Examples

An administrator would poll coUserAccountStatusTable/coUserAccountStatusEntry (indexed by coUserAccIndex) to read coUserAccUserName, coUserAccPlanName, coUserAccRemainingOnlineTime, and coUserAccRemainingSessionTime for each active hotspot user. Watching coUserAccStatus and coUserAccExpirationTime lets an operator detect when a user's session is about to expire or has been forcibly disconnected, while coUserAccFirstLoginTime helps audit session duration against the purchased plan. This gives hotspot operators real-time visibility into guest account consumption without querying the billing backend directly.

What Can Be Monitored

active user accounts
remaining online time
remaining session time
account status/expiration
service plan name
first login timestamp

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using coUserAccRemainingOnlineTime OID:

Select a Colubris/HP MSM wireless hotspot controller/access point (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 coUserAccRemainingOnlineTime 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. The online time remaining for this account. 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 Integer32-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the value drifts significantly from its normal baseline, since an unexpected change often points to a real underlying issue. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
